00:01 <****> sory... well I'm trying to install gentoo. I can't connect to internet; pppoe-setup doesn't do it. So I tried dhcpcd (as advized in handbook). I get timeout on both....
00:02 <****> sdlfkjsdglkhsado ctrl-z
00:02 <****> hi, is there a place on the web where I can see the ebuild files, without a gentoo installation here?
00:02 <****> alesan the gentoo CVS
00:02 <****> NeddySeagoon: doe sit have a web access also?
00:02 <****> does
00:02 <****> alesan, http://sources.gentoo.org/
00:04 <****> ok.. what can be the path to access the ebuild list?
00:04 <****> err Andy_Alpha: ppope doesnt use dhcpd
00:04 <****> hmm... I don't know... I just followed handbook.... what do I do now?
00:04 <****> alesan, they should all be ebulds ... thats the portage tree
00:05 <****> alesan, start with the gentoo-x86 repository
00:05 <****> ok but from http://sources.gentoo.org/ which link would you choose to access the ebuild list, how do I find the catogories etc...?
00:06 <****> I am interested in the amd64 one :)
00:06 <****> anyway
00:06 <****> I will start from -x86
00:06 <****> Sashi hmm... I don't know... I just followed handbook.... what do I do now?
00:07 <****> alesan, the ebuilds will be common to all arch they will be KEYWORDed to work on different arches

00:14 <****> geaniak: modprobe is a commandline tool, part of module-init-tools package. you need loadable module support enabled in your kernel to use it
