Re: [gentoo-user] NVIDIA question

2006-10-25 Thread Istvan Pongracz

You forgot to rmmod nvidia  modprobe nvidia
Previous nvidia kernel driver was in the memory, that is why dmesg reported the 
different versions.

I upgraded nvidia-drivers from 1.0.8774 to 1.0.8776. Couldn't restart
the X server. dmesg said the client and the kernel had unmatched
versions (kernel with 1.0.8774). I did modprobe nvidia.
I ended up rebooting, and it works now.
So, what went wrong? (I mean, a reboot shouldn't be necessary...) What
must be done to make the kernel use the new module?

[gentoo-user] SOLVED: samsung network printer on amd64 - only half page printed

2006-04-08 Thread Istvan Pongracz

Hi,

Looking into logs, and digging the net, I found that, gs 
(ghostscript-esp) did segmentation fault.


I downgrade esp package to 7.07.x, the same, segfault. (1st advice on 
the net, kubuntu forum).


Latest ghostscript-gnu (advice from somewhere on the net), the same, 
segfault.


I installed the latest ghostscript-afpl, working perfectly.

Regards,
István

Hi,

I have a problem on my amd64 system.
I put a fresh x64 gentoo install to an amd64 machine about a month ago.
Now I bought a Samsung CLP 510N network printer and tried to use under
64 bit gentoo.

So, after hacking setup.sh (correct lib paths for 32 bit compatibility
libraries) I installed the samsung's config programs, drivers etc.,
using cups as printing system.

Now, the problem is:
if I print out a document from openoffice 2, I got exactly the half
pages. I mean, if I print out 3 pages, I got 1st page correctly, second
contains only the upper half, the left simply missing.

If I print one page, I got a half.

This problem happens, when I print a test page under linux-config, which
is the samsung provided utility.

BUT. If I print a test page from Webmin (1.250), I got a full page,
without problem.

On my laptop, which is a 32 bit system, the printing working well to the
same printer, using the same drivers, which are installed to the 64 bit
system.

I googled around and I found lot of cups related issues with amd64,
mostly from year 2005.
My problem definitely was not there.
I dig at www.gentoo.org printing howto, but there is no solution.
I also tried to find something at samsung site, there is nothing.

Does anybody know this issue or have an idea, how to solve this situation?
Now, printing is more or less useless for me in amd64 environment.


Regards,
István

Hi Matthias,

Thank you for your tipp, I'll check it.
I also checked ekiga, which is like gnomemeeting, but different ebuild,
downloadable from the site.

I tried this: esearch phone

 Another one that has been in portage for a few weeks: net-im/wengophone
 My experience is that the sound quality isn't quite as good as Skype's
 and it can't do conferences (yet?) but OTOH it kinda supports webcams
 which Skype's Linux version doesn't. Kinda because it's not quite
 stable yet, once in a while it locks up or fails to display the other
 sides's image, and it uses an awful lot of CPU, but at least it's there.
 
 cheers!
