Hello !
As I have no network cable where my gentoo computer will be placed, I need
to use a wirelss network adapter.
Do you have any recomendations of which product (USB plug) to buy which is
simple to install ?
In my local stores I can choose from: (only USB sticks)
- GIGABYTE Link ACT

Hello !
Now that my gentoo system is up and running the applications that I want to
use, how do I make a reliable backup ?
Can I follow the guide on:
http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Backup_to_DVD
Is that a proven/working method ?

...and if that doesn't fix it I'm sure the upstream devs will be
interested
to know of the problem.
I have opened a bug report, and also got a response, which I will try:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=266868
Thanks for the help !
It worked perfect.

Well sometimes I am just too slow ;-)

I tried to emerge lilypond but it fails when building fontforge, with
the error below.
What do I do ?
Do I issue an bug report ?

In file included from fontP.h:109,
from gdrawtxt.c:30:
gxdrawP.h:83:32: error: cairo/cairo-xlib.h: No such file or directory
gcc
Try rebuilding x11-libs/cairo
I tried:
# emerge x11-libs/cairo
Which seems to have worked out ok, then ran emerge fontforge, but it
ended up in the same error as before ?
I searched the disk for the file: cairo-xlib.h (in Konqueror) but
could not find the file ?

I want to use Rosegarden, and the latest stable version (according to
www.rosegardenmusic.com) is 1.7.3
But when I use emerge rosegarden I only get version 1.5.1 ?
I tried to create a /etc/portage/package.keywords:
=/media-sound/rosegarden-1.7.3 ~x86
But this doesnt seem to help:
# emerge
Hello !
I am realy a beginner at Linux, and i am trying to get Gentoo work with my
Epia Via C3 Nemiah.
I have followed the Handbook (I hope), and have looked at some Epia HOWTO's
on how to configure the kernel. (manual config)
I configured the needed devices as built in, and nothing as a

Yes, although you'll find that most people prefer GRUB to Lilo nowadays.

Work is the curse of the partying class!
From the handbook:
To begin, we'll introduce block devices. The most famous block device is
probably the one that represents the first drive in a Linux system, namely
/dev/sda. SCSI and Serial ATA drives are both labeled /dev/sd*; even IDE
drives are labeled /dev/sd* with the new libata framework
lilo config.
If this doesnt work I will send my .config and lilo.conf-files.
Is it lilo that tells the kernel at boot what device to mount as root ?

Thomas, I also have an EPIA (disk booted) so I can dig that up if there's
no progress
I'm pretty shure that I have selected all device drivers as specified in:
http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/VIA_Epia_M_II
but I will tripple check this tonight.
Is it somehow possible to pause the kernel's startup text output ?. The text
is so fast so there is no way of reading it.
Thanks for all your support.
Yesterday evening I reconfigured the kernel again, and I added SCSI I think,
but I also removed some generic IDE drivers and just kept the VIA driver for
ide. Recompiled, and rebooted. And voila, it booted :) I will compare the
two .config's to see what I actually did
