[gentoo-user] What should i use instead of /dev/usb?
I am using some hardware that requries external drivers (no ebuild either) and it says i should; mknod /dev/usb/panel0 c 180 180 Since /dev/usb doesnt exist, what is the correct alternative? (2.6.22-gentoo-r8) thanks.

Re: [gentoo-user] From /etc/locale.build to /etc/locale.gen
However I found that I have a locale.gen ; I edited it to include en_US and it_IT, and run locale-gen. Now can I upgrade to glibc-2.6 ? Yes, you can. If you've always had the file, you could've upgraded to 2.6 anytime. I suppose locale-gen (run automatically during glibc emerge) has been using your locale.gen instead of locales.build (the obsolete file) for a long time - locale.gen has been the preferred way a year or so. -rz -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] eth0 fallback configuration is ignored

[gentoo-user] Problem using the pppoe plugin

Now what is very strange is -- if I use the rp-pppoe package independent of gentoo using there adsl-start command instead of the gentoo configs, then everything works just fine. Both methods are using the same local startup script for ppp which fixes up the packet forwarding, etc., so I haven't a clue as to why one has this problem and the other does not.

[gentoo-user] Glxgears crashes X
Another day of probing finally got DRI working on my new machine: the basic problem was that Mesa needed recompiling with 'i810' enabled. Naturally (wry smile), this led to another show-stopper: X starts with no errors in the log, but 'glxgears' 'glxinfo' crash X. There is a brief back-trace, but it shows nothing immediately useful. There are many reports via Google Gentoo Forum of similar experiences, some of them as recent as Aug-Sep 2007, all involving Nvidia or Radeon, but none revealing a cause, let alone a solution. Might the problem involve a conflict between kernel/Xorg modules ? Is there some required combination of entries in xorg.conf ? -- 'man xorg.conf' is not the most helpful of documents, it not being clear what many of the options etc really do. The processor is an Intel G33 using drivers 'i810' 'i915' ; kernel 2.6.22-r8 ; 64-bit system . Has anyone else encountered this or have any suggestions ? -- ,, SUPPORT ___//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban Community Studies TRANSIT`-O--O---' University of Toronto -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] Re: Problem using the pppoe plugin
Hi. I am having a very frustrating prroblem when I use the pppoe plugin like so: config_ppp0=(ppp) link_ppp0=eth2 plugins_ppp0=(rp-pppoe) username_ppp0='vzeqmmst' pppd_ppp0=( updetach noauth ipcp-accept-remote ipcp-accept-local holdoff 3 lcp-echo-interval 15 lcp-echo-failure 3 ) What happens is that when I use this a computer on my local network has intermittent connection problems -- it connects to google just fine, but not to Microsoft sites and other places. Use this: iptables -t filter -A FORWARD -p tcp --syn -j TCPMSS --clamp signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Re: [gentoo-user] Problem using the pppoe plugin
I answer to your last two threads. OK, thanks to all who responded -- I had to do mtu_ppp0=1492 and then I had to do the iptables rule. I still wonder why the native package worked, but not the plugin? Go figure. It seems that the mtu problem only occurs when you use the kernel module and the ppp package. So this problem hit you when using the plugin from ppp and not with rp-pppoe. From [2]: Warning: For people transitioning from the rp-pppoe package, or for people who hit weird connection resets, see the MTU section in the Troubleshooting chapter. plugins_ppp0=(rp-pppoe) Are you sure this line is correct? Yep, otherwise it would not work at all, so looks like some documentation needs to be fixed? I don't think this is the correct configuration. I recommend you to read here [1], [2] and the PPP section in net.example. The mtu problem is explained there too. Rp-pppoe is depreciated and has been integrated in ppp and I don't think there is an option like plugins_ppp0=(rp-pppoe). But if you use plugins_ppp0=(pppoe) the rp-pppoe plugin of the ppp package is used! This here is from my logs: pppd[19849]: Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded. pppd[19849]: RP-PPPoE plugin version 3.3 compiled against pppd 2.4.4 pppd[19852]: pppd 2.4.4 started by root, uid 0 And my /etc/conf.d/net config_eth0=(192.168.0.1/24 ) config_eth1=( null ) config_ppp0=( ppp ) link_ppp0=eth1 plugins_ppp0=( pppoe ) username_ppp0='ar1435446276' pppd_ppp0=( noauth defaultroute usepeerdns holdoff 3 child-timeout 60 lcp-echo-interval 15 lcp-echo-failure 3 noaccomp noccp nobsdcomp nodeflate nopcomp novj novjccomp ) depend_ppp0() { need net.eth1 } [1] http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Connect_using_PPPoE [2] http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/home-router-howto.xml#doc_chap3 Regards, Daniel -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

This has nothing to do with libexpat - this is an ICE (Internal Compiler Error). There are two things that cause ICEs: * Bad RAM * Bad compilers A bad compiler can be due to a bug in the compiler code, or excessive CFLAGS. Your CFLAGS look fine, though. Its unlikely to be bad RAM if it consistently fails in the same spot. You might want to file a bug at http://bugs.gentoo.org.
