[gentoo-user] firefox compiles, won't start
Sorry if this has already been covered. I have just now subscribed to this list and did not check the archinves. I am having problems starting firefox. This is the error message when attempting to start from the command line: bash-2.05b$ firefox /usr/bin/firefox: line 106: /firefox: No such file or directory -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] firefox compiles, won't start
I ran the full path /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/firefox and it started fine.

[gentoo-user] Live CD for 2.6 beta 9
Wondering if it is better to start from scratch with a 2.6 kernel live CD, or if it is possible to install gentoo, and a 2.6 kernel starting from one of the older CDs that I already have downloaded. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Live CD for 2.6 beta 9
The laptop I am using needs to be repartitioned, so I dumped all the contents into an external. I thought I would use the opportunity to try out 2.6b9 as most feel it is stable enough (and fast as hell it appears). Another side effect is that I can also compile with better cflags than I did before I gathered new information. I know I don't have to reinstall just to do these two things, but since I am repartitioning and essantially starting from a clean disk I thought it good opportunity. I guess the question becomes, does a installing from a 2.4 livecd, stage1 install have any disadvantages over using a 2.6 disc, when set on using a 2.6 kernel. As I alredy have a 2.4 disc burned, if it makes no difference, I would save my time and skip downloading a new disc. * Donnie Berkholz [EMAIL PROTECTED] [11-01-03 14:19]: On Sat, 2003-11-01 at 06:16, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Wondering if it is better to start from scratch with a 2.6 kernel live CD, or if it is possible to install gentoo, and a 2.6 kernel starting from one of the older CDs that I already have downloaded. If you want to install from 2.6, more power to you, but I don't really see the point. Especially if you're just reinstalling because you want to use a 2.6 kernel on the LiveCD.

Re: [gentoo-user] slightly OT: c++ performance: gentoo vs. debian
If you could please clarify for me, your saying compiling with -falign-functions=32 gives you gains? On all the machines (athlon t-bird, p4) I have tried so far, -O3 always decreases performance - O2 is best (dramatically so on something like a celery). Most of the other options you see mentioned on the list show a small incremental advantage, except for -falign-functions=4 which also slows things down. Making this 32 gives a small advantage though. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
