RE: [gentoo-user] Gentoo USE flags
Hi! If you read my first post about USE flags I wanted some recommendations and not links to sites where USE flags are explained. I don't know why you think that if you don't fine tune your system that nobody does that also. Finally thanks to everyone who have answered my question but really answered my question with their recommendations and suggestions.

But with that you didn't still answer my question :). But he did provide you with the means to answer the question yourself. You are the only one who really knows what you want from your system, now you know how to get it. The default USE flags are reasonable for general desktop use, fine tuning is your choice, not mine or anyone else's. USE settings are not permanent, you can change them as often as you feel the need, so read the docs and experiment. -- Neil Bothwick When your pet bird sees you reading the newspaper, does he wonder why you're just sitting there, staring at carpeting? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
RE: [gentoo-user] Gentoo USE flags
Hi! I said what will I do on my system and I value the answers of people who really answered what I have asked. May be I am lazy but why the hack could I not use some experience of other Gentoo users. As you could see to some people it had not been a problem to share their experience on USE flags and I presume that they also haven't got a cristal ball so you are the first who mentiones that :).

I don't know why you think With all due respect, you're lazy... that if you don't fine tune your system that nobody does that also. Finally We CAN'T suggest anything because it all depends on what YOU will do, the flags suggested won't fine tune your system because you are the only one able to do that... My cristal ball still can't predict what programs you'll use, what packages you'll install and how you'll want them configured. You are the one in control, so start learning HOW to control it... The only good answers you got were the ones that pointed you on solving your own problem while LEARNING how to do it, wich in fact is what anyone would do in all the time between your first post and now. C'mon, if you write programs the way you ask questions you'll only finish one the day someone post you the complete code. thanks to everyone who have answered my question but really answered my question with their recommendations and suggestions. The best recommendation: read the docs, the best suggestion: read them again. Sorry for this, but I hate when people: 1) do not value the time and effort of people answering them. 2) keep asking to be spoon-feeded with information instead of learning how to cook a meal. -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?

RE: [gentoo-user] USE flags
Yes, I have also installed Gentoo 2006.0 with Gentoo LiveCD and installed GRP packages which were on CD but now I want to set USE flags to avoid what you have mentioned a installation of stuff which i will not use but which are installed with packages I install. So once again I am looking for some assistance in configuring my USE flags in make.conf to needs that you can read in this mail. I would be grateful to all who help with their lists :).

I recently installed once again Gentoo 2006.0 but before this version a few months' ago I installed and for a short period of time used Gentoo 2005.0. At that time I had trouble with USE flags because I have never known what is the best configuration of USE flags for my system so I would like if someone could help me in a way that he proposes to me a list of flags that i should have in my make.conf and that that I should exclude. My needs are that I have a system which is desktop oriented with KDE and not GNOME but also I will do a little of programming and I will have a experimental web, mail, ftp, MySQL server because I will learn php. Graphics, games and so on aren't of interest to me and only thing I want is to play DVDs, DivX movies, play MP3 and audio CDs and burn DVDs and CDs. Well, when I installed Gentoo 2006.0, I used the GRP and Dynamic Stage 3, so, couldn't set my USE flags. I don't set USE at make.conf. After the GRP install, I sync'ed, then issued a emerge -uDNpv world and started emerge -pving each package in the list, checking USEs and writting them to package.use. After that, each and every package installed follows the same path. This way you don't loose control over your flags and avoid useless stuff (like compiling a lot of programs with KDE support when you only need kde-base because of K3B). It's just the way I do it, any comments? (no flames please, I'll not change my mind :) -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?
