[gentoo-user] A bit of scripting...
Any of you guys any good as scripting? I'm trying to do a smarter version of this : ls -lR /lib/modules/*/kernel/ /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4 That works ok.. except that after I have to go through and remove all the .o from the ends of all the modules and also remove all the listed dir structure before each module.. below is an example of the output: /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/kernel/: total 3 drwxr-xr-x3 root root 72 Sep 8 06:57 arch drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 488 Sep 8 06:57 drivers drwxr-xr-x 30 root root 720 Sep 8 06:57 fs drwxr-xr-x3 root root 80 Sep 8 06:57 lib drwxr-xr-x9 root root 224 Sep 8 06:57 net /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/kernel/arch: total 1 drwxr-xr-x3 root root 72 Sep 8 06:57 i386 /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/kernel/arch/i386: total 1 drwxr-xr-x2 root root 120 Sep 8 06:57 kernel /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/kernel/arch/i386/kernel: total 28 -rw-r--r--1 root root19016 Sep 8 06:57 apm.o -rw-r--r--1 root root 3044 Sep 8 06:57 cpuid.o -rw-r--r--1 root root 3848 Sep 8 06:57 msr.o Now out of that all I want is : apm cpuid msr I'm pretty sure it can be done.. what do you guys think?

[gentoo-user] post emerge config changes
Last night I did an emerge sync last night followed by a emerge -uD world when it had finished i had 24 ._cfg_. type files that needed changing.. This was a VERY laborious task to complete.. and made even more annoying by the fact that some of the cfg file it wanted me to change were no different from the other other ones apart from the date at the top of the file!! Surely there is a better way to update shit.. possibly some sort of script that compares the two files and only shows what is different between the two.. that way we can make faster easier changes/decisions..

One or more messages from you are being held in my pending queue because your address was not recognized. To release your pending message(s) for delivery, please reply to this request. Your reply will not be read, so an empty message is fine. If you do not reply to this request, your message(s) will eventually be returned to you, and will never be delivered to me. Your confirmation verifies to me (and qconfirm) that your message(s) is legitimate and not junk-email, and you should never have to do this again as long as you use the same reply to email address. If you sent a message to me by doing a reply all to a message I sent to an email list we have both subscribed to, rest assured that I have read your message from the list. If you wish(ed) to communicate with me personally (off list) please reply to this message as indicated above, and your message will be delivered. This has virtually eliminated SPAM from my inbox, and I thank you in advance for helping to keep SPAM from my inbox. The reason this works is as follows: SPAMMERS tend not to use real reply to addresses. If they did, we would be able to find them and sue them for illegally trespassing on our equipment. Even if they did use real reply to addresses, they would have to construct autoresponders (like this program) which would intelligently do the right thing to get their message through. SPAM works because it is cheap for the sender, this breaks that business model. Eventually qconfirm bounces the unconfirmed messages, and I never have to look at them. More information about the qconfirm program can be found at http://smarden.org/qconfirm/ Note: this URL is just a website not an information gathering click through so RELAX!

Two things.. 1) I think your issue's are unique..

That being said.. It will install MUCH cleaner, and much better optermized for your machine, because it will download what it needs and nothing more, and it will compile it to the specifications of your machine as it installs..

If I'm in 'insert-mode' and I press '-' I get a screen refresh and I get back to command mode so I have to press 'i' to get back to insert mode. The arrow keys do the right thing in command mode, though. My old RH box allows the arrows keys to be used in insert mode, so iknow it can be done /A -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list _ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] wierd KDE stuff..
Actually I think I spotted it.. When you install Enemy Territory It asks if you want the shortcut placed into the kde menu.. I said yes.. I noticed yesterday that when I edited the menu, saved and exited, it wiped my saved changes.. so I created another shortcut and put what I wanted into that.. hey presto it now works... Strange..
