Re: [gentoo-user] Kazaa and winex
I tried a few kazaa versions and had troubles with all of them.. The one I got working is 1.7.2 LITE Get kazaa lite from http://www.kazaalite.tk/ , which is a stripped down kazaa (no spywares).

Re: [gentoo-user] lightweight C IDE
This is probably not what you want to hear but, kdevelop is want comes the closest to an editor with compiler and debugger interface.. with a few extra frills, that you can choose to disable in the plugins configuration in order to unbloat it from what you don't need right now..

[gentoo-user] Which laptop vendors officially supports linux?
Hi, I was wondering if there was any laptop vendors that officially supports linux? I know linux can work, with more or less tweakings, on most laptops, but which brand actually have enough guts to officially say that linux works well on some or all of their laptops? Thanks, Cedric -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] Screwed up /dev
Hi, I screwed up my /dev by doing all kind of stupid things with the files in it. I thought a reboot would replace everything since I am using devfs but I was wrong. Everything seems to work properly but I get warnings about missing devices at boot and my /dev really does not look right, with lots of extra nodes ending with a - like "/dev/radio0-" Is there a way to re-initialize my /dev or something? Thank you, Cédric -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] Looking for a linux supported DualCam
Hi, I want a webcam that can do normal video recording you'd expect from a webcam as well as taking still images without being connected to the PC like a digicam would do. So far I've looked into Creative Lab's PC-CAM series as well as Logitech Click-Smart series. They have exactly the features I want but I don't think they are fully supported in linux. http://www.americas.creative.com/products/product.asp?maincategory=6&category=447&product=460 http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm?page=products/details&CRID=4&CONTENTID=5034&countryid=2&languageid=1 Anybody knows about a webcam that can be used as a basic digicam and that is supported in linux? I would love to know. Thank you! Cedric -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] System screwed up
Hi, You were right, my paths were wrong... but env-update could not help me because the problem lied in /etc/env.d/05gcc which looked like: PATH="/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.2" ROOTPATH="/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.2" MANPATH="/usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2/man" INFOPATH="/usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2/info" CC="gcc" CXX="g++" LDPATH="/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.1" See how LDPATH refers to 3.2.1 while all others refer to 3.2? Changing it to 3.2.2 fixed the problem after an env-update..

Re: [gentoo-user] Internet Sharing

[gentoo-user] Net-setup on real system, not just liveCD
Hi, I like the net-setup tool and I think it would be useful to have it on my system, not just on the liveCD... Why? I am shipping a server to a datacenter. They will have to make network configuration when they will receive it. They probably never heard of gentoo and I want things to be as easy for them to configure the network.. Even though the tool does not saves the configuration, I will be able to remotely log in and do it myself. I checked the liveCD's content but only found a liveCD.cloop file.. Guess this is the actual filesystem of the liveCD but how can I open it? Is there an easier way to get the net-setup script? May be it would be nice to have these utilities in a package, gentoolkit may be? Thank you, Cedric -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] Compiling additional modules for liveCD?

Is there a proper way to do this or is it just not possible? Thank you, Cedric -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] sshd on liveCD?

Re: [gentoo-user] Running java apps with lower nice level
> -g needs a process *group* id, which is something else again. Try using > -p instead. Ooh.. I thought a process group was a process and all its sub-processes.. It appears to be true in most cases at least.. The problem here is that most java apps spawns dozen of processes.. I do not want to renice them one by one... So the best idea is probably to run it with nice, so no need to renice.. # nice --5 someJavaApp nice: cannot set priority: Permission denied Seems I need to be root to run a program with higher priority, which is understandable... But in my case it is a complete nuisance.. So, as root I tried to run: # nice --5 su - cedric -c someJavaApp It did run the java app under my username, but with a nice level of 0, not -5 as expected.

Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo tar different??
It is possible that these distro use a different tar, that should not prevent you from being able to extract the tarballs.. -j specifies to bunzip the file. You can run bunzip2 seperatly before running tar. -p specifies to preserve permissions. There must be an option equivalent to it. Le February 9, 2003 05:34 pm, Brett I.
