[gentoo-user] Can't log into KDE desktop
Finally, finally I have the Xorg-server worked correctly and installde KDE Meta. I wanna say it is so difficult to have done these ! Now , I can start KDE, but after I input username and password, it only showed a panel with four icons( I think you guys who use KDE will see this everytime when KDE starts), then it did not show the desktop. Here is my kdm.log: Note that your system uses syslog. All of kdm's internally generated messages (i.e., not from libraries and external programs/scripts it uses) go to the daemon.* syslog facility; check your syslog configuration to find out to which file(s) it is logged. PAM logs messages related to authentication to authpriv.*. klauncher(6561) kdemain: No DBUS session-bus found. Check if you have started the DBUS server. kdeinit4: Communication error with launcher.

[gentoo-user] Who can tell me relationship among dri,glx,mesa,xorg?
Now I'm totally confused, I can't find helpful information from Internet. I know mesa is a open source implementation of OpenGL, obviously mesa will afford OpenGL API. DRI is short for Direct Rendering Infrastructure, I have chosen options like: Device Drivers ---> Graphics support ---> <*> Direct Rendering Manager ---> <*>ATI Radeon [*] Enable modesetting on radeon by default Does this mean that DRI libraries are built into kernel? If not, who contains DRI? Also who affords GLX libraries? Mesa or Xorg?

[gentoo-user] Can't build firmware into kernel
I'm being working out with building KDE environment recently. Now I need installing Xorg first. As the says, if I use radeon card ,then I need emerge radeon-ucode or linux-firmware package. Then I need rebuild my kernel with External firmware blobs . My video card belongs to radeon 4000 series, so I should add "radeon/R600_rlc.bin radeon/R700_rlc.bin" as it says into External firmware blobs . But when I make, it says that it can't find files that I specific.. Can anyone help?

[gentoo-user] Can I send email under linux terminal?
Actually the subject is not correct . The emails I sent before were writtern on a web page , not on linux system , because I haven't install a KDE desktop which means I only can work under linux terminal. So whenever I want to write a email I have to reboot my computer and boot the windows system. I'm thinking that if I can send or receive mails just under terminal, no need web pages or windows. Also at the same time could I send mails though the mail server what I use right now under terminal?

Re: [gentoo-user] Anyone can afford information about build kernel?
Yeah, your reply is exact what I mean , but I'm really confused by those modules' names, I can't find any contact between the hard device name and its module name . For example, there is a module named 3c59x.ko , I totally don't know what device it present for , I mean I can't figure out that which module correspond to which device though I know the hard devices consisted of my PC. So I need information about contact between them so that I could know what modules need to be chosen in kernel , also the options of kernel are quiet a lot , there're many features that I never heard , I want to find them out . May be you think these problems are too easy , but I have never contacted them before .

If you're new to building kernel, it will take some time to learn what modules you need what options you should enable, etc. You're building gentoo on some host Linux os, so you can use that os's lsmod utility to know what modules you require. Also, if some modules may be compiled right into the kernel you may not be able to see them in the lsmod produces, instead use lspci -v for that. One important thing I learnt the hard way while building gentoo for a server- Always compile the critical modules like disk controllers, RAID, also don't forget to use RAID autodetection if you're not going to use an initramfs and filesystems (involved at boot) statically. While citing my experience about building gentoo on a server, you have to do the things invisibly, so you can't see what the kernel emits befor panic. It turned out that I'd disabled RAID autodetection and wasn't using an initramfs either (which will load the arrays using mdadm). -- Nilesh Govindarajan http://nileshgr.com
[gentoo-user] Anyone can afford information about build kernel?
It seems that no matter I build gentoo manually or with genkernel I can't have a fine-working kernel finally. Obviously I must solve it by myself , so I determined to build entire kernel all manually , it requests a lot of linux knowlege . All for that, I hope someone could tell me where to get this information , I haven't found them on gentoo.org , so please lead me to the correct direction, thank you for you all !
Re: [gentoo-user] Why grub can't load win kernel
Sorry, I'm a gentoo newcomer, so I am totally not familar with this OS. Does USE make sense with grub ? And in the building there is no error, I had grub-install done. Grub boot interface can show up , I can choose which OS to boot, but I couldn't boot win , what is the problem in your opinion? -- Original -- From: "Alan McKinnon"; Date: Wed, Oct 5, 2011 11:39 PM To: "gentoo-user"; Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Why grub can't load win kernel On Wed, 5 Oct 2011 23:32:10 +0800 "Lavender" <448463...@qq.com> wrote: > The configuration of win kernel in grub.conf is like below: > > rootnoverify (hd0,0) > makeactive > chainloader +1 > > It worked yesterday , but after I rebuilding grub software, it can't > work.

[gentoo-user] Why grub can't load win kernel
The configuration of win kernel in grub.conf is like below: rootnoverify (hd0,0) makeactive chainloader +1 It worked yesterday , but after I rebuilding grub software, it can't work. I don't know why, it still can boot gentoo kernel, I am confused,because grub only can do operations to MBR, it can not influence contents on windows partition. I also tried boot manually in grub command interface, but after showing "load stage2" it goes back to grub > I'm gonna pissed. I have many important things in windows system, will someone figure it out?
[gentoo-user] 回复: [gentoo-user] Help!
I did that manually, did I lose something when I build the kernel ? But I really turn the options which handbook mentioned on . I don't know how to work out. -- 原始邮件 -- 发件人: "Yohan Pereira"; 发送时间: 2011年10月5日(星期三) 下午3:18 收件人: "gentoo-user"; 主题: Re: [gentoo-user] Help!

[gentoo-user] Help!
Hi, everybody! I installed gentoo according to Gentoo Handbook , then I login gentoo . But I found that I couldn't use wpa_supplicant for scanning netcard device failed . I think that means the netcard module not loaded, so I type lsmod and the output have only one line-Modules , according to the Handbook I have written many modules to the file /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel2.6 though I don't know those modules respond for what. Now the question is that I don't know whether gentoo loaded those modules that in file kernel2.6 which I created. Handbook said that modules in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel2.6 will be loaded automatically, but why there is only one line in output when I use command lsmod? I’m going to be crazy! When I use gentoo I really realize that the knowlege needed is far more than I just have, I have to acknowledge that I'm a freshman.So please help me.
