[gentoo-user] Re: Online multiplayer games on linux?

2003-03-17 Thread Lee Harr
Are there any games on linux that work with internet play?
BZFlag is awesome.

Net play with the latest FreeCraft is great too. I do not
see an ebuild for 1.8 yet though.

[gentoo-user] Re: Accessing Zope via FTP

2003-03-12 Thread Lee Harr
I emerged Zope 2.6.1 to check it out (and am mightily pleased so >far),
but one thing's not working; the docs say that Zope's FTP server >should
be started automatically by default on port 8021, but that's not the
case here.  One weak point of Zope is the docs, and I can't seem to >find
any good info on Zope start-up options.  Has anyone run into this
before?


Look at z2.py

That is the canonical source of Zope startup options  :o)

I just installed Gentoo 1.4 rc1, and I'm having
trouble getting sound to
work.


Hi;

You do not mention if you used the gentoo user
docs guide to ALSA configuration.
http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/docs.xml#top
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml
I have the same chip (the much dreaded and imo
rightly maligned) i810 and I got it to work
only by following that guide word-for-word not
skipping a thing and checking everything twice.
Also. When you are done, make sure you unmute
everything and crank the volume. Even on the
channels you are sure have nothing to do with
the problem  :o)

[gentoo-user] Adding parallel and printer support to kernel

2003-02-22 Thread Lee Harr
Hi;

I posted this same problem a few days ago, so I hope I am not
annoying anyone :o)
I am trying to get printing working on my gentoo system. I have
had good luck using apsfilter in the past, so I am going that
way. When it gets to the point of trying to print the test page,
I get an error -- from ghostscript, it appears to me
I found another message that seems to point that this error is
caused by missing parallel and printer support in my kernel:
unable to set key=OutputFile, value=/tmp/apsfilter809/test_page.aps
unable to set key=Quality, value=0
unable to set key=ColorMode, value=2
unable to set key=MediaType, value=0
unable to set key=PenSet, value=2
and continues inifintely...
Any ideas what could be the problem, and the solution?

Solved the problem. There was no parallell port or printer support in
kernel. A new compilation of kernel solved it.


So, I am trying to implement a matching fix for myself. I looked
through the menuconfig screens and found and activated everything
I could find relating to parallel and printer... and then I
grep -i'd through the resulting .config file for para and print
and everything that related was =YES, but still I cannot print.
How can I tell if the parallel and printer support IS in the
resulting kernel?
Is this gs problem really caused by missing parallel and printer
support in the kernel?
How else should I go about printing? I tried the "printing"
section of the gentoo users guide, but the section on printing
to a shared windows printer is ... not as nice as the rest of
the manual ;o)
Any guidance appreciated.

[gentoo-user] gs unable to set key=OutputFile

2003-02-13 Thread Lee Harr
Trying to get apsfilter (and ghostcript) working, but I get an
error trying to print the test page. Googling around, a few
suggested something missing from my kernel (parallel port and/or
printer support) but I have rebuilt the kernel half a dozen times
and still cannot get this working.

If someone could tell me exactly which kernel options I am missing
or give me another hint to go on, that would be great.

Here is the error I get:



  gs -q -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dPARANOIDSAFER -dSAFER -r300x300
