Hello everybody,
Impatient to an answer to my query whether or not I
could change CHOST and CFLAGS in make.conf after
having installed everything with reference to Intel
arch instead of AMD, I went ahead anyway -- and it
worked! After 7 3/4 tense hrs(!)xorg was emerged
successfully. Well, almost.
In /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts I found two bad links to
CID and Speedo in /usr/share/fonts. There was nothing
in emerge.log about this. How did this happen if all
the checksums worked? Anyone suggest a fix?
I haven't run Xconf yet, I was hoping for some tips
for setting up my card, a Radeon 9250, mindful of the
recent debate on the list of the relative merits of
ATI and nVidia cards. I'm not a gamer and a lot of eye
candy in not important to me but I would like sharp,
clear text in the documents I hope to be able to read
once X windows is startable 8)
Also, df returns a reading of 29% use on /. But that's
what is was before. Surely 7 3/4 hours of compilin'
and installin' would have added a fair chunk to the
hd.
