 Just the same here, with the same setup, but addidtionaly, pcmcia
stoped working, just like the soundcard. The stange thing is, a 
grep -r ide-probe-mod /etc* didn't find anything.

[gentoo-user] Pcmcia cards work only after a restart

2004-01-14 Thread Tobias Edler
Each first time afer a reboot, any pcmcia card is identified as a
Anonymous Memory device. after a /etc/init.d/pcmcia restart, and afer
taking th e card out and putting it back in, it works just fine.

I had a similar thing yesterday. emerge -e world worked for some hours,
then emerged portage, recalculated the dependencies, and started again,
compiled some packages again, emerged portage, recalculated
dependencies, restarted again :-( The machine was f up anyway, so I 
did a mke2fs -j before the next emerge

[gentoo-user] xconsole

2003-07-14 Thread tobias . edler
I want to have a window, which displays my log lessages. So i tried to
setup xconsole:
mkfifo /dev/xconsole
chgrp users /dev/xconsole && chmod 775 /dev/xconsole
I added this to syslog.conf
daemon.*,mail.*;\
news.crit;news.err;news.notice;\
*.=debug;*.=info;\
*.=notice;*.=warn   | /dev/xconsole
and restarted sysklogd 
now i run 'xconsole -f /dev/xconsole' ad all i get is: couldn't open
console. I changend /dev/xconsole to 777, didn't help. But when i run 'sudo
xconsole -f /dev/xconsole', it doesn't complain. But it also doesn't show
any log messages :-(

Regands, 
TE

Isn't this what emerge depclean does ? 
check if a package is a dependency of an installed package (= registered
in the worldfile) or a dependency of a dependency of an installed package?

emerge unmerge gnome && emerge -p depclean
Have a look at this list, al those are not dependencies of packages in
your worldfile. if you want to keep some of them, add them to
/var/cache/edb/world and the run
emerge depclean
Keep in mind that a change uf your USE flags may change this list a lot

I applied the cpufreq patch to my gentoo-sources manually (had to alter
2 files by hand because of other installed patches), enabled CPU
frequency selection, and compiled the amd-powernow module.
and now :

[gentoo-user] CPU throttling

2003-07-07 Thread tobias . edler
Hi !  
Secod try, i tried to post this here 24 hours ago  ... 
 
I have a Acer Aspire Laptop and try to save enery ;-)   
I read about autospeedstep, and installed it. It compiled well, and runs
well, and /var/log/speedstep indicates that it changes betrwwn powersave
and full power, but i don't quite trust it :

cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/info  
processor id:0  
acpi id: 1  
bus mastering control:   yes
power management:yes
throttling control:  no 
performance management:  no 
limit interface: no 

Hmm, so what can I do to change this ?  
The website says I need an ACPI-backport-patch, but when i tried to 
apply it to my gentoo-sources kernel, it seemd to be already installed. 

Thank you all
