[gentoo-user] Out of order install - grub first

Hi, From experience I don't see this as a problem but I thought I'd ask. 1) I just installed Win XP 2) I'm going to install Gentoo 3) I plan to use grub to dual-boot Any reason I cannot install grub at the start of the Gentoo install process instead of at the end? This would allow me to c

you'll need to get to the point where you can compile grub - ie up to stage 3 probably. On Tue, 6 Sep 2005 14:15:56 -0700 Mark Knecht wrote: > Hi, >From experience I don't see this as a problem but I thought I'd ask. > > 1) I just installed Win XP > > 2) I'm going to install Gentoo > > 3)

Re: [gentoo-user] Multiple Displays & nVida vs Radeon... take TWO

Ok, well, another question. I called Dell. I asked "can I upgrade my Inspiron 9100 to take a GeForce Go 6800." The answer was no. Three questions: Is this because the GeForce Go is unavailable in AGP? Is there another, suitable, graphics card that I could jump to? Given that the board were ava

Laptop hardware is custom, so I doubt yu can replace anything with something else. For radeons, use the xorg driver rather than the ati ones for a laptop. You lose some, you gain some. For me I can get it to work across multiple projectors/monitor types and resolutions without rebooting (I use

[gentoo-user] mplayer and/or X optimization

Also check out monmotha for a good script that should handle this. However, as others have pointed out, home brew firewall scripts, especially with someone who admits they are lost is a recipe for disaster. Pick something like shorewall or monmotha and modify - carefully. There is a very good re

actually, IIRC if you try and emerge firefox-bin it will grab all of the emulation libraries you require, not 100% sure tho because it's been a while since I did it... On 9/6/05, Perral1 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Mark Knecht wrote: > > >On 9/6/05, Matan Peled <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >
