[gentoo-user] Issue emerging gnome
When emerging gnome, I'm receiving an error message: all ebuilds that could satisfy "=media-libs/imlib2-1.0.7" have been masked. (dependency required by "media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.7_pre20030624". I've emerged gnome twice before (on the same machine, but each time, after blowing away the machine to reinstall gentoo to get practice), and haven't run into this. Any help offered would be greatly accepted. I'm running a machine with an Athlon XP 2000 processor, and, for what it's wortha video card based on GeForce2 MX chipset. I've also downloaded the nVidia drivers. Once again, any help would be greatly accepted. Thanks, sean
Re: Re: [gentoo-user] Slow performance...
Thank you for your assistance... It is much appreciated. It was a rather duh moment for me. Another question... I've enabled this on my machine manually, but I want it enabled every time I start. I've added the line to my rc.conf; however, I question if this is the right place... Are there any guidelines on this?

[gentoo-user] Slow performance...
Good evening: I'm a relatively new user to Gentoo, just started using it last week. I've noticed that when I'm running in my GNOME desktop, if I'm doing anything that has to do with the filesystem, reading/writing to/from my IBM-DTLA7030 drive, I get jitters in the desktop, and rather poor performance overall. I am running my system with an Athlon Tbird 1200 processor, on an Asus A7M-266 board, which has an ATA100 IDE drive interface to get to the disk. My /boot is an ext3fs file system, while my / (the only other filesystem that is mounted when this occurs) is ReiserFS. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] Problem emerging GNOME
Good morning (afternoon, evening, or whatever time it may be in your part of the world): I'm attempting to emerge GNOME onto my system, and I'm receiving errors. My system was built using the stage 3 tarball from the Gentoo 1.4 RC4. The emerge errors out when on the step where it is working with avifile-0.7.32.20030219. The error message indicated is: ERROR: media-video/avifile-0.7.32.20030219 failed. Function econf, Line 304, Exitcode 77 econf failed It recommends checking the config.log for more information. I'd append that to this e-mail; however, it is quite large... if needed, I'll go ahead and append it, but it doesn't seem to show ME any info. Of course, I'm not a pro at this, so... read into that what you will. I'd like to use GNOME more than KDE... Has anyone else out there run into this issue? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Please? Thanks! Sean -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: Re: [gentoo-user] Problem emerging GNOME
Well... Re-emerging gcc fixed that problem... now I've hit another snag... Now I'm getting the following error message: ERROR: media-libs/gst-plugins-0.6.1 failed. Function src_compile, Line 151, Exitcode 2 (no error message) What I'm seeing when I trace back through the script is that the script is trying to find a file in a directory named /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.2; however, I don't have this directory. I do have a similar directory as an i686-pc-linux-gnu. Any help, as always, is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[gentoo-user] New user trying to get SSH running
Good evening, I'm a new user to the Gentoo distro, and just completed my first install of the OS on a system of mine. I'm using 1.4 RC4, with a stage 3 tarball install on an x86 system. When I attempted to fire up sshd, the system is telling me: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key Disabling protocol version 1. Could not load host key Disabling protocol version 2. Could not load host key sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting So, Iknow WHAT this is saying... I know WHY this is being said. But even after extensively reading the manpages for ssh, sshd, and ssh-keygen, I don't see anywhere that tells me how to create the host keys... I've been a user of SSH on a redhat system for about 9 months; but I gave up my redhat distribution so that I could REALLY learn Linux rather than rely purely on the plug and play. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! (p.s., If this question has already been answered before, as I'm pretty sure it has, if you'll point me to the archives, I'll gladly look it up myself!) Sean Bossinger

Re: [gentoo-user] New user trying to get SSH running
etc-update or env-update? The only reason that I ask is that when I used etc-update per the instructions in the installation manual, some of my system files, including /etc/fstab, were overwritten by the original files that had been copied over during the untarring of the tarball.
