You'd think some kind of cross reference like that would be around since ram is one of the more expensive parts of a setup. If it's the same type of RAM, it should work just fine.

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Kernel update messed up console encoding
Hi Nikos,
On my /etc/rc.conf, there's this:
# Set unicode to YES to turn on unicode support for keyboards
# and screens.
unicode=YES
It's set to no on my machine (I already posted this; this was the
first thing outside the kernel that I considered, I think). (I haven't
yet posted that I use sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.11.1, though - not sure
how this relates to the OpenRC you are mentioning.)
So I suppose maybe simpley changing this to NO will do the job.
Curiously, it does not, even though it seems supposed to do it, using
the very mechanisms we already discussed (kbd_mode and console escape
sequences). It's a little strange:
Try grep -ri unicode /etc and see what you find.
Doing this, I found out that /etc/runlevels/boot/keymaps and
/etc/init.d/keymaps do use this variable, but do so for setting the
keyboard encoding only if it's set to yes. In other words, if the
kernel starts up with 8-bit encoding for the console, these scripts (I
don't know which one, perhaps both - they seem to do the same thing in
this respect) will switch to unicode for the keyboard, but not the
other way round (i.e. the if statement if [[${UNICODE} == 'yes']]
has no else part, so if $UNICODE has a different value, such as 'no',
it is simply ignored, and nothing happens). For the terminal encoding,
however, the scripts seem to act both ways (the if statement does have
an else part). Strange, to me (or am I overlooking something?).
(I'm not sure, BTW, whether the double '=' is a gentoo peculiarity,
nor whether this kind of string comparison is case-insensitive. But in
any case, the scripts only test for yes, in lower case, so anything
else should effectively mean no.)
Best regards,
Florian

Someone had this working succesfully? You do not need to use aliases. Using iproute2, you can have as many (within reason) IP addresses as you want on each interface. You configure it as conf_eth0=( 1.2.3.4/24 10.11.12.13/24 20.21.22.23/24 ) For routing via the different networks use iproute2 rules, see the postup() function (towards the end of /etc/conf.d/net.example) for an example of how to set this up.

But they are not listed as dependencies in the ebuild. So you can either (1) leave things as installed now, or (2) unmerge qt-assistant and qt-xmlpatterns, and then rebuild PyQt4. That those packages are not listed in the PyQt4 ebuild as optional dependencies is a bug that needs to be fixed tho. Unmerging those then rebuilding PyQt4 worked and it comes back clean.

Is there a way to build wine on a 64bit system without using the win64 flag (i still want to run win32 binaries). Bye! Bug #260726 at b.g.o. Apparently if you remove the offending line recently added by vapier to the ebuild, it may build. However, variable results have been reported. Failing that, I suggest you do what I did - mask 1.1.6 and be content with 1.1.15 ok, thank you so much! I will mask version 1.1.16 too -- Antonio Quartulli http://www.ritirata.org/ordex
[gentoo-user] Updating system problem
Hi folks, I trying to update one server, that in the past had apache2 installed. Today I removed the apache2, but when I run: *# emerge --update --ask world* the update of apache2 appears with the update of the others programs that is installed, but apache is no more. What I have to do to fix this, and take out this update? Thanks a lot for the attention. Tulio Henrique

Re: [gentoo-user] Updating system problem
Thanks a lot guys, I solved the problem using first: *equery depends apache2* so I discovered the dependencies of apache and removed it, and now the problem is gone. I've learned so much with *# emerge --depclean* thanks! Best regards! 2009/3/2 Prado, Renato (R.P.) rpr...@visteon.com From: Prado, Renato (R.P.)

Cheers, Using HAL and .fdi files you can set up rules for that device ID to treat it as a certain kind of keyboard. Search gentoo forums or google for some examples and more info about it. Still no luck here, as this is new to me. Really, I'm lost on the process... figured it would just work, which it does, except that I don't have number keys... on either keyboard. So, why is *that*?

If xev (x11-apps/xev) shows generated events and a keycodes when you press these keys (on either KB), you can bind them for any purpose you wish (including KP_*) via xmodmap (x11-apps/xmodmap). Just hack together an ~/.xmodmaprc file, looking like this: keycode 100 = KP_4 keycode 102 = KP_6 keycode 98 = KP_8 keycode 104 = KP_2 ... and add 'xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc' line to some X/WM init script. Note that the keycodes probably won't be the same for you, but you can get them from xev output. -- Mike Kazantsev // fraggod.net signature.asc Description: PGP signature
