RE: [gentoo-user] Realtek 8139 not detected at bootup

2003-08-04 Thread Matt Gossage
You actually done the 

nano -w /etc/init.d/net

rc-update add net.eth0 default

bits of the install?

Just checking :-)

Subject: [gentoo-user] Realtek 8139 not detected at bootup

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Im trying to install gentoo on a new box for a m8.  While ive installed
gentoo 
many times previously, I havent come across this particular kind of
problem.

The box is a Shuttle sv24 with an on-board realtek 8139 NIC.  The LiveCD
[with 
no special options passed] detects the card on IRQ11 and uses the
8139too 
module quite happily.  The 2 USB hub's are also detected on the same
IRQ.

For the install, I selected both the realtek 8139too and 8139cp modules
just 
in case.  Unfortunately when booting the new install, gentoo doesnt say 
anything about eth0.  When I manually insmod the driver or attempt to
assign 
an IP to the device, it say's the device is unknown/not found.

Looking carefully at the dmesg output however, there is a section about 
conflicting devices on IRQ 11 [and it lists the usb drivers loaded], so
I 
tried disabled the usb hub in the bios [the keyb/mouse are ps2] but this

didnt seem to help.

The only other message that seemed to be of any relevance was 'ds: no
socket 
driver found' - but after carefully checking the kernel options to that
of 2 
other gentoo boxen I have, I cant see anything obvious which could be
causing 
the problem.

Like I said, I get the impression its an IRQ-level problem as opposed to
a 
driver-level problem, as the hardware isnt even detected, so how can a
driver 
talk to it?  For the record I have double and triple checked that the
'allow 
shared irq's' in menuconfig is checked :P

TIA :)

Unfortunately, there is no real port of unreal to Linux. The unreal-226
that 
you have emerged is a hack of Unreal Tournement to get it to work with
the 
Unreal world. I don't have UT so I can't tell you how to get it to work.
You 
can find more information and possibly a solution at

[gentoo-user] Disapearing Processes

2003-07-18 Thread matt gossage



Hi, i am using gentoo for some servers mainly for 
running HLDS_L servers
 
the boxes are dual xeon 2.4s (HT enbabled) and 1 gb 
ram
 
i have compiled the 2.6.0 test kernel and 
everything sems to be fine (i compiled with 1000hz)
 
but everynow and again 1 of the servers i have 
setup just disappears, 
 
the servers are run using screen and detached and 
elft running. but its almost like they go to sleep because they disappear, i go 
back in go into the screen and type something and low-and-behold it comes 
back..
 
you guys have any ideas?
 
is there a way o force a process so it never sleeps 
or something?
 
Yours hopefully

Re: [gentoo-user] no /dev/SWAP

if you followed the install instructions it will need to be

/dev/hda2

(unless you have scsi / no standard config)
