Yeah, took me a little while.
I have R installed and it's interesting to play with. It's a misnomer
to call it a language though. It's really a complete environment that
draws charts, graphs, applies coloration, interesting stuff. I may end
up using RapidMiner - also Open Source but I think it's not in portage
- as it's more of a GUI environment vs R which is sort of command line
driven.

I think you are mixing stage 1 and stage 2 GRUB images? Stage 1 is installed in MBR or any partition's boot sector. No knowledge of fs is required for that to be accessed (by BIOS or a chainloader) and JUMPTO deals with that. The 1.5 images on the other hand are used to read the fs in which GRUB's stage 2 is installed. That's far too large to fit into a boot sector.

Hello Willie, May or Maynot be what you are looking for, but there is a really simple easy/quick drawing tool, call 'dia' in portage. (app-office/dia). Alternatively, if you do not find what you want, you may consider developing a quick writing system to go with this ARM(Cortex) based, linux friendly notebook. Who knows you may even land a really cool, high paying job, if you replace ubuntu with gentoo, on this bad boy. Let me know if you have problems getting one, were a FreeScale development partner Furthermore, Gentoo has some really talented folks in the embedded group, and ARM is very popular therein. http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS8595694202.html http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS3522920675.html It looks wide open on connectivity possibilities! hth, James

Hi,
It's possible with emerge ( emerge -s "%^R$" ) , but I recommend to
install eix, then use eix-sync instead of emerge --sync. Eix is a lot
faster !
With eix you can search for the exact match with the -e option :
# eix -e R
* dev-lang/R

[gentoo-user] Tablet PC? Anyone?
Hi: Does anyone on the list have any experience with Tablet PCs? I know many of the Tablets have guides to installation on Gentoo-wiki. Does anyone have a personal story to share? Any suggestions of a good, sturdy, Tablet that I should consider to buy? I primarily am looking for a device to help note-taking in class. I can touch-type in LaTeX quickly enough to catch up to most lecturers using blackboards, but using a conventional laptop there is almost no way for me to enter diagrams and simple illustrations. I won't need handwriting recognition that much: I can still do my notes in vim with LaTeX, and just have a macro that opens a small canvas for free-hand drawing and embeds the saved image automatically in the TeX file. Mainly what I am looking for is some sort of pen-mouse/tablet/touchscreen interface that makes drawing diagrams simpler (compared to a touchpad or the little dit that sits between the g,h, and b keys on a laptop). So if anyone knows of a laptop with this kind of built-in interface, it will also be good. I guess my question is: if I am looking to buy a tablet pc, and am intending to run gentoo on it, what specific things should I look out for (assume I know zilch. I'd rather have redundant information than missing information)? Are there any particular brands or models that are known to work extremely well?

A very varying group of people writes these plugins, and if i could get 5 plugins to work correctly i would reach what i am looking for. Unfortunately, one breaks down other two, or vice versa. In emacs, which i think i've given the most time, i'm using right now some panels that bring me the bufferlist, and a filesystem browser, but they screw up the splitting of windows when the bottom panel is displayed and the editor word wrap stops working when browser is displayed. That's just a small description of the general feeling, these plugins are great, but they usually work great when used alone, or just one major plugin enabled. i've checked out open/komodo, the main issue is that it is an ide designed for web developing, not c compilation as far as i could see. right now, codeblocks seems to be most functional, and i know they are working on making split windows function better. I've also switched on kde4 and latest kate (implies also new kdevelop) has a very interesting functionality "vim like input mode", which seems rather unnatural at first, but i think it has a lot of potential. I've given some time to yziss too, but as far as i can see the project has been paused. I like very much the ideea of an IDE on top of a native VIM editor, and i'm considering expanding gvim. regards, A.
