Heh, dont feel bad... I wasted approx. 19 hours on an open office (source) emerge which ended up failing in the end, so thank you precompiled packages! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Thanks -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list Everything is peachy now, well kinda. I had to re-emerge libvorbis and KDE 3.1 compiled like a champ. Now another problem my swap file is not being initiated at boot. I have to run the swapon command in a console for it to start the swap file. I have looked at my fstab file, I thinkit is setup right. Does anyone know what I might do to fix this little problem. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

What may be the problem is that gentoo's automatic fstab creator seems to create the swap line as: /dev/SWAP none swapsw 0 0 but that doesn't mean that the /dev/SWAP necessarily exists in devfs. If /dev/SWAP doesn't exist, then this line won't work. So either change the line in /etc/fstab to refer to the real /dev/ device, or add a symbolic link for SWAP to point to the device. ---+--- Bryan Feir VA3GBF|"You also ask, 'How fares my love across the sea?'

When you see /dev/SWAP, this means edit it to read /dev/hdxy, where xy is the correct location of your swap partition. -- Collins -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
