00:00 <****> pr00f: iirc the driver drives both modem and sound, but for some reason doesn't detect sound
00:00 <****> lnxnt_: yes?
00:00 <****> omsai: http://pastebin.com/m408c839a
00:01 <****> lnxnt_: ...talking to nick-default... he's getting this error - http://pastebin.com/m7f74fe74
00:01 <****> chithead that option didnt work
00:01 <****> lnxnt_: ...make it http://pastebin.com/m408c839a
00:01 <****> nick-default: omsai 's messages are highlighted in my theme and i was not sure if nick-default didn't refer to myself
00:01 <****> ah ks
00:02 <****> pr00f: restart alsa again. is your asound.state now different?
00:02 <****> Why does it always present me with a device, and options then complain that every feature is "only available through HAL"?
00:02 <****> cant i just delete it?
00:02 <****> nick-default: ah! your c compiler is broken `C compiler cannot create executables`.... but don't worry it's fixable. I've had this issue 3 times before
00:03 <****> latest apache build is 2.2.6
00:04 <****> chithead: looks the same to me
00:04 <****> omsai: great! ...so how do I fix my c compiler?
00:04 <****> I am getting "Buffer I/O error on device hda" (cdrom), woudl that indicate cd issues or drive issues?
00:04 <****> nick-default: what is your current compiler? check it with `gcc-config -l`
00:04 <****> pr00f: I notice that you are using 2.6.22 kernel. did you try 2.6.23?
00:04 <****> Predominant: i've had it with both
00:05 <****> no thought 22 was newest 1
00:05 <****> Best try and couple of New CDs
00:05 <****> then swap cd drives.
00:05 <****> omsai: [1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.2 *
00:05 <****> What is the difference between xinit and startx?
00:05 <****> ok some weird ghost are playing funny jokes here ... all of a sudden amarok crashes and cant get started again :S
00:06 <****> [SD]: pardon the delay, the phone rang. The reason I was asking if a googlepages account could be spidered (for files *not* linked) is because my account may have been comprimised, which puts me somewhat at risk for identity theft (and getting my linux box comprimised).
00:06 <****> Santana: any errors? and if not, try launching from an xterm
00:06 <****> MidnighToker: I did that already :)
00:06 <****> none
00:06 <****> all empty
00:06 <****> Santana: hmm, unpleasently odd.
00:06 <****> no...you cant spider for things not linked
00:06 <****> spiders dont guess file names they need a link to follow
00:07 <****> MidnighToker: yeah specially when I know .. I ve not even touched my system
00:07 <****> chithead any idea on why its not working...
00:07 <****> thats why i reformtted
00:07 <****> :(
00:07 <****>
00:07 <****> Santana: i'd try checing for zombie processes, reboot, and then possibly wipe out my settings dir ~/,amorak (mayme)
00:08 <****> hehe, yeah
00:08 <****> sometimes
00:08 <****> MidnighToker: I killed all amarok processes as I tried to run it more times :)
00:08 <****> oh well nevermind :)
00:09 <****> what is emerge for anyway :)
00:09 <****> hda3) I don't wanna put down sector numbers of start and end of partitions, then drop partition table and recreate it
00:10 <****> pr00f: new chipset support gets added continuously. your kernel may be too old. you could check http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=history;f=sound/pci/hda;h=7b7631c9b80dabf436e59724f79092f32bfc7d65;hb=HEAD for any mentioning of your hardware
00:11 <****> nick-default: ok, this solution I found on the forum is quicker than re-emerging gcc: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-27486-highlight-gcc+config+executable.html ..... see post # 6
00:11 <****> I'm looking to installing an IRC server onto my local box what's a good IRC deamon to use?
00:12 <****> omsai: i see it.. so ill follow..
00:12 <****> nick-default: actually run `source /etc/profile` first.... didn't read the whole thread :)
00:12 <****> lol
00:13 <****> ok
00:14 <****> omsai: just wondering, gcc-config -l returns 4.1.2... in the forum its stating 3.3.3, so i change what in /etc/ld.so.conf?? becuase in mine its already the same as the config output
00:15 <****> nick-default: I believe the post meant change the version only if it's different from what you are currently using
00:17 <****> omsai: http://pastebin.com/m2be26785 this is what /etc/ld.so.conf is showing on my system.. so i leave as is?
00:17 <****> pr00f: Where are you at? Is it working yet?
00:18 <****> p
00:18 * [SD] hates corperate america..... "they tell my dad to add functionality to a software programe he JUST administers..hes not a dev"
00:18 <****> gnite
00:19 <****> nick-default: yeah, because it's pointing to the right gcc lib 4.1.2
00:19 <****> Is it bad practice to, if you have several distros on one computer, use the same swap partition across the different distros?
00:19 <****> rpj8: no
00:20 <****> DrChandra: I see.
00:20 <****> omsai: still the same errors :(
00:20 <****> Another question: As I'm reading through the gentoo linux documentation, I see they make use of an extended partition to house 5 linux partitions, I'm guessing one for each different distro. How are those identified in /dev ?
00:20 <****> nick-default: ....I guess then `emerge gcc -va` sit back and have some tea :)
00:21 <****> /dev/hda1-7 ?
00:21 <****> omsai: oh yeah! what else ?? heh well its running now.
00:22 <****> omsai: the hassle with emerge world :)
00:22 <****> nick-default: cool! what did you have to do?
00:22 <****> rpj8: your extended partition just alows more logical, so its still hda1, hda2, hda3, hda4 (extended, dont mount), hda5, hda6.....
00:22 <****> nick-default: oh gotcha, nm
00:22 <****> rpj8: /dev/hdaN, where N ius the next number above that of the last primary partition.
00:23 <****> MidnighToker and DrChandra: I thought as much. Thanks very much
00:23 <****> omsai: sorry didn't make myself clear! re emerging gcc now..
00:23 <****> wow, they managed to do 100Gbps over copper
00:26 <****> shimi, average copper or oxyfree?
00:26 <****> cat7
00:26 <****> hi folks ... udev seems to be creating a symbolic link /dev/mapper/control which symlinks to itself and thus lvm does not start because of too many levels of recursion ... how can i get udev/lvm to keep from doing that?
00:27 <****> if i remove /dev/mapper/control and run `vgchange -ay`, i can mount the mountpoints manually and the system boots
00:32 <****> Drchandra sadly no its not workin
00:32 <****> and i feel like it never will lol
00:33 <****> is 23 kernel not gonna have a suspend2 version?
00:34 <****> rullie: just apply the patches from http://www.tuxonice.net/ to your kernel
00:34 <****> chithead: what about alsa-driver not modded in the kern?
00:34 <****> chithead, but isn't there usually a suspend2 version in portage? what's special about this one?
00:35 <****> rullie: you are right, there is http://packages.gentoo.org/package/sys-kernel/tuxonice-sources
00:36 <****> pr00f: it is usually newer than in-kernel alsa, might be worth a try
00:36 <****> chithead, suspend2's not tuxonice? o.O
00:36 <****> now*
00:37 <****> rullie: yes
00:37 <****> chithead, :D thanks man!
00:38 <****> chithead what else can i try before i try a new kernel?
00:38 <****> u think ill have any luck with alsa-driver?
00:39 <****> ive tried it before and gotten the same results
00:39 <****> everything says it works but no sound
00:39 <****> The correct way to ensure all packages are up to date with the latest from portage is.. emerge --update world ?
00:40 <****> Predominant, emerge -avD world
