[gentoo-user] Cannot access external network
Hi, Im a gnu/linux newbie and have 2 problems 1. At boot, i get net-mount failed on eth0 and ifconfig does not list eth0. So i manually tried ifconfig eth0 up and eth0 is then listed. Next I am unable to ping machines not listed on /etc/hosts. My /etc/conf.d/net has entries for config_eth0 and routes_eth0 My /etc/resolv.conf however looks like this: # Generated by dhcpcd for interface eth1 nameserver mynameserver domain mydomain It seems to say eth1 . when it should say eth0? 2. When grub loads, the screen is all blurred and hazy and seems to get allright 10 seconds after the kernel starts loading. What should i do? Any help will be appreciated thanks ! raj -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Source Code?
Hi, thanks Iain, Winston and Willie for all your help. I was looking specifically for the coreutils package and did not know where to find it. Iain, i rungentooso i do have the patched versions of what i need, thanks. But from you've said Im just curious to know if patched versions of the coreutils package will be available for download directly form the mirrors of distros like debian, slackware, ubuntu,suse Fedora's mirror had coreutils-5.2.1-48.1.x86_64.rpm but im not sure if thats patched. regards, raj On 1/13/06, Iain Buchanan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Thu, 2006-01-12 at 23:40 -0600, Raj Swaminathan wrote: Can anybody tell me where i can obtain open source code for gentoo. If you're _running_ Gentoo it's easy, as you have to download most ofthe source code to install it.However, given that you're doing this tolots of distro's, I assume you're not installing each distro... Im particularly looking for code for programs in /bin and /sbin.Ah, quite a lot of programs install things into /bin.Do you mean justthe base set of programs?then there's not much in there at all. They're probably all in 'coreutils' or 'baselayout' (no doubt otherswill give you more package names) I am on a project to find out how different distros implement a few of these programs. So far i have only been lucky with OpenSolaris and FreeBSD.You should have luck with gentoo, as every gentoo mirror should carrythe source code.Go to http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml to find mirrors, and then navigate to your.mirror/gentoo/distfiles whereyou will find the source code (pretty much anything in there thatdoesn't have a -bin in the name is source code for something :)for example, coreutils-5.3.0.tar.bz2 or baselayout-1.12.0_pre10.tar.bz2However: gentoo does it slightly differently:Instead of downloadingthe patched source code, as you would in, say, fedora, gentoo downloadsthe original untouched source from the program's site, and applies gentoo patches.To find out the patches, without running gentoo becomes a littletrickier.I'd personally download a portage snapshot:your.mirror/gentoo/snapshots/portage-20060112.tar.bz2 (~20Mb), then lookat the directories in there:/usr/portage/sys-apps/baselayout/usr/portage/sys-apps/coreutilsIn each directory you will see a list of *.ebuild files, which are therules for building this package. If you get this far and want me to keep going about ebuilds, just postback to the list.HTH,--Iain Buchanan iaindb at netspace dot net dot auThe best way to make a fire with two sticks is to make sure one of them is a match. -- Will Rogers--gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller and alsa on amd64?
Hi,
Im having the same problem. But i dont understand how you fixed the problem.
/lib/modules/2.6.14-gentoo-r5/alsa-driver.
Should the directory be deleted??
