[gentoo-user] Re: Woes with Kernel and Iptables

followed it up by rebuilding the kernel like so: MAKEOPTS="-j4" make && make modules && make modules_install && make install && make mo dules_prepare && emerge @module-rebuild Hopefully this might help another poor soul who might get stuck on this.

[gentoo-user] Woes with Kernel and Iptables

Hi everyone, I have a newly provisioned machine and for the life of me, I can't get iptables working. Here is the error: # iptables -L iptables v1.6.1: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to i nsmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

Re: [gentoo-user] is anyone using Nouveau graphics driver ?

My experience is the same. Things are super fast with Nouveau, but the random system-wide lock ups were unbearable. I'm a KDE plasma user as well. My last experience was about 6 months ago. I wonder if there is anything we can do to help solve the lockup issues in the long run with Nouveau. On

Re: [gentoo-user] Nvidia-Xscreensaver problem

I think your best bet is to send that segfault to Nvidia via their Nvidia - driver forums. Seems like a driver bug to me and the nvidia guys are the only ones who can fix it. They'll want to know your kernel version. On Nov 8, 2014 10:50 PM, Philip Webb purs...@ca.inter.net wrote: Has anyone

[gentoo-user] Get RPC: Program/version mismatch if I set OPTS_RPC_MOUNTD and OPTS_RPC_STATD in /etc/conf.d/nfs

Hi everyone, I am getting a strange error when I try to mount my nfs partitions. In /etc/conf.d/nfs I have: OPTS_RPC_MOUNTD=-p 32767 OPTS_RPC_STATD=-p 32765 -o 32766 I set these two options so that I can use nfs with iptables. If don't set these two variables, I wind up not being able to mount
