I too an getting ready to purchase an AMD64 solution and have been
considering one with the nForce4 chipset. I went to the AMD64-Gentoo
IRC channel and although not too many people responded the ones that did
had positive reviews of their respective boards (not too many problems).
My big concern i
Try looking at the script file:
/usr/sbin/run-crons
it is run every ten minutes by /etc/crontab and looks for things that
haven't been done recently. Adjustment here may be necessary. An
alternative may be to edit /etc/init.d/local so that it checks the time
stamp on the database and updates it
Captain Fantastik,
Static linking will consume vast amounts of memory and is generally a
bad idea. It is used primarily to distribute pre-compiled binaries to
ensure that the target system has all of the needed libraries. This was
common with programs that used the Motif libraries on prop
Frank,
I saw your post where you said:
BTW: I choose to never run these silly update scripts. Now I look run
etc-update only to see where gentoo placed replacements and cancel. Then
having a look what will change and do this (if required) by hand.
I have a script called find-new-configs t
Paul,
It is not forwarding that you want unless you actually have more than
one REAL IP address routed to your house. If you didn't pay extra for
this service then you don't have it. What you do want is masquerading.
I have 2 NICs as well with one for a LAN and the other setup for PPPOE,
I'm having a problem updating mplayer. I fixed it with the following
commands:
cd /usr/lib
ln -s . X11R6
The bottom line is that libX11.so is in /usr/lib and according to line
3137 in
/var/tmp/portage/mplayer-1.0_pre5-r5/work/MPlayer-1.0pre5try2/configure
it is searching for the libX11.so librar
Dave,
I adjusted my /etc/sudoers file and commented out the line:
#Defaults env_reset
and then retried with success. There is a line:
DISPLAY=:0.0
in my environment that sudo creams for security reasons. After RTFM'ing
a bit more I found that you could add the line:
Defaults
Dave,
Alright, I fought with this for a while when I set my system up so let
me try again. I added the xhost line way back when I used Redhat and it
seems to migrate from system to system with me. That was back in the
early days of Gnome and I was using FVWM and it did fix that problem.

On my system I have adsl on eth0 and a LAN on eth1

, etc.). When it is available I'll buy one if for no
other reason than to support the project, but, until then, what is the
card that the Gentoo graphics developers are using?

Then I would suggest that you reboot, then change to single user mode,
remount the filesystem read-only and start your check.
The second suggestion that I have would be to search the rc scripts and
find out where mount is called to remount the fs read/write and stuff a
bash command right before it
touch /forcefsck
reboot

The two utilities that come to mind are ifconfig and route. ifconfig
should list the network interfaces including any ppp interfaces that you
may have to an ISP. The real thing that I would look into is the route
command and specifically the default route. If you have two ISP
connections but do
I have been fighting with this issue off and on for the last couple of
months and it is the only reason that I'm still using a 2.4.x kernel.
Every time I build a 2.6.x kernel it boots ok but the keyboard is not
