Well, you didn't set any resolution for the card. Try the basic ones:
1024x758 and 800x600. You can also remove the small depth entries.

from the qemu doc,

3.11.1 Linux

To have access to SVGA graphic modes under X11, use the vesa or the 
cirrus X11 driver. For optimal performances, use 16 bit color depth in 
the guest and the host OS.


When using a 2.6 guest Linux kernel, you should add the option clock=pit 
on the kernel command line because the 2.6 Linux kernels make very 
strict real time clock checks by default that QEMU cannot simulate exactly.


When using a 2.6 guest Linux kernel, verify that the 4G/4G patch is not 
activated because QEMU is slower with this patch. The QEMU Accelerator 
Module is also much slower in this case. Earlier Fedora Core 3 Linux 
kernel ( 2.6.9-1.724_FC3) were known to incorporte this patch by 
default. Newer kernels don't have it.



Like another poster said try setting resoltions in the xorg file.

I boot with livecd and I'm able to mount /dev/md1 and see data. I do a

So, I reboot to normal system and seems to go fine until it looks for
root filesystem, then it stopts and fsck.ext3 complains about /dev/md1,
it says (aprox, cause it's in spanish) that no file existes when trying
to open /dev/md1. then 
/dev/md1:
Superblock could not be read o does not describe a valid ext2 fs
correctly. If the device is valid and it contains a ext2 fs (and not a
swap, ufs o else), then superblock is corruupted and you could run
e2fsck with an alternative superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 device

What's happening now?
boot message says:

so, seems it's fine, isn't it?

Just wanted to let you know my spam filter ate this.  You might want to
rewrite it with better punctuation since many other people may not have
seen it either.

As for your network card, it would help if you told us which model it
was, which kernel versions from other distros have worked, and which
kernel versions from Gentoo have not worked.

[gentoo-user] [OT] Pinging two devices on the same IP address

2007-10-23 Thread Mick
Hi All,

I am trying to troubleshoot two devices both behind the same IP address:

Device A:  a router
Device B:  a wireless access point

The network looks like this:

Internet  modem  router  AP

Currently I have set up a firewall rule in the router to forward all pings to 
the AP.  The logic is that if the ping returns then both router and AP are 
up.

That's alright when both devices are working.  However, if I am interested to 
know which one of the two has failed, a different system is needed.  Any idea 
how I could ping them both separately?  Is there a clever firewall rule I 
could concoct?

I really don't get how you forward something to an Access Point, isn't
this device like a dumb hub on your wireless network? Mine doesn't
have an IP, nor MAC or anything that could identify it on the network.

I would also be interested if something like that is possible...

[gentoo-user] Error Message about network interfaces

2007-10-23 Thread twang . umn
Hi all,

I own a Thinkpad T60 laptop. It has both wireless and wired network support. 
But when booting, if I just use wireless ( without plugging wire), it will give 
an error: eth0 network interfaces does not exists.

Actually, it was not a big problem before. But now I am using fbsplash. After 
swithing to graphic terminal, the booting will stop at the error message. I 
need to go back to tty, and then booting continues.

Does anyone know how to get rid of the error message. Since I use wire or 
wireless like 50 to 50, I don't want to remvoe net.eth0 from runlevel scripts.

Any suggestion is appreciated, and thank you in advance.
