Re: [gentoo-user] where's the splash?

2005-08-14 Thread Joshua Armstrong
the vga= line contradicts the video= line.  Try dropping the vga=
argument.

Re: [gentoo-user] DVD recorder recommendations

2005-08-20 Thread Joshua Armstrong
Can anyone point me to a howto for doing packet writing with a DVD+RW?
I have a DVD+RW drive and it works fine with the pktcdvd kernel
interface, but when I try to use cdrwtool -q -d /dev/hdd with a DVD+RW,
it gives me this:

Initiating quick disc blank
wait_cmd: Input/output error
Command failed: a1 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 - sense 05.30.05
blank disc: Illegal seek

Any clues?  Thanks!

AMD Athlon 1.2GHz
VIA KT7 chipset
Memorex 8x ATAPI DVD+-RW/CD-RW, DMA interface at UDMA2
Memorex 4x DVD+RW media, writing at 1x
cdrecord-ProDVD fails with the same error, except it reads,
"write_track: Illegal seek."

[gentoo-user] rsync problems

2005-08-30 Thread Joshua Armstrong
Hello, I'm having a problem with rsync on one of my servers.  Every time
I rsync from one of the gentoo portage mirrors, it tells me rsync error:
some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(1064).  I've
tried re-emerging rsync and re-emerging portage but to no avail.  I know
it isn't a firewall/routing issue because all my other Gentoo boxen can
sync without a problem.  Thanks!

Re: [gentoo-user] rsync problems

2005-08-30 Thread Joshua Armstrong
They are syncing from the same mirror.  I haven't tried changing mirrors
though.  If it helps, when I read the kernel logs I notice that during
the time it's syncing, I see a lot of readlink() failed:  I/O error for
files in /usr/portage.  I've run fsck on the disk and it detects no
errors.  All other apps can read all the files in /usr/portage without a
problem.

Thanks for all your help!
