Re: [gentoo-amd64] 3200+ - X2 4000+

2007-06-27 Thread Tim Allingham
If its the cooler that came with the 3200+ then no, don't use it for a
dual-core chip. even though most of the times temps will be fine, when
loading both cores heavily it would really strain.

 Maybe, depends on how good your cooler is.
 
  -- should I change a lot of attributes in my kernel .config file?
 
 You need to enable SMP and the multi-core scheduler option

 Thanks for that Robert, had a quick loog at the bugs list but couldn't
 dig that one up.
 
 Looks like I'll just have to live with it until I can be bothered
 rolling it out with gcc-3.x as g-wrap 1.3.4-r1 won't compile under
 gcc-4.1

Gah my own  stupidity astounds me sometimes, recalled the usefulness of
emerge --resume --skip-first, and gnucash 2.0.1 built fine with g-wrap
1.9.x solved the problem wonderfully, cheers for that Robert :)

Unfortunately no such luck, good thought but pretty sure $(HOME) is a
variable pointing to the home folder of the user who ran the command
(similar to the way ~ works)

[gentoo-amd64] sound problems on startup

2007-05-14 Thread Tim Allinghan




I'm running a reasonably recent build on the following mainboard

Abit KN9 Ultra motherboard (Nforce 570 ultra chipset)


as a desktop with Gnome.

The problem I'm having is every boot the audio is turned down to zero
volume, not actually muted just all the sliders are reset to zero
values, what is required for this value to be kept?

[gentoo-amd64] Is 2005 broken?

2005-07-09 Thread Tim Ames
I posted a message in here last week about digest verification failing and 
also in the forums and did not receive a reply.  What is happening is that 
after updating portage when I tried to emerge files and they would download 
and you could see them get larger than the amount that was written in the 
first lookup of the file.  The file would go past 100 percent and then 
sometime later it would stop and it would come up with a digest 
verification error.


So I managed to get the machine online with just a modem after a while and 
the same pattern happened.  So I started out completely from scratch and I 
just compiled 2005.0.  Everything worked out until I tried to emerge 
coldplug from a genkernel.  I got the digest verification error again.  I 
emerge sync ed again and now everthing I try to emerge gets the digest 
verification error.


I guess I'm going to have to give up and go to another distro.

I'm running an sk8v asus motherboard with an fx-51 chip.

Does any of this ring a bell with anyone?

I was able to download the gzip from the mirror and put them in my

it on the system and get it working.  But I couldn't download anything from 
a mirror on the sk8v machine and emerge it on that machine.  I was able to 
start all over again move a stage 3 tarball over and run it, compile the 
kernel, but then the same problem started all over again after the first 
emerge sync.


still scratching my head

2005-07-09 Thread Tim Ames
Thanks for the reply.  I updated the bios on the sk8v with the beta version 
that was posted on the asus website.


bad news got a cmos error.  Went through all the proper steps, called tech 
at asus and I fried the bios chip they
are sending me a new one, so next week I'll try this again.  But this was a 
fresh install, fresh fdisk and I did the first emerge sync and this happened.

Hello,
please have a look on your FETCHCOMMAND / RESUMECOMMAND in /etc/make.conf.

(emerge --info -v | grep COMMAND)

FETCHCOMMAND=/usr/bin/wget -t 5 --passive-ftp -P ${DISTDIR} ${URI}
RESUMECOMMAND=/usr/bin/wget -c -t 5 --passive-ftp -P ${DISTDIR} ${URI}

You should be really sure, thaht you have removed any old files from
your /distfiles dir. I had also strange problems with a wrong RESUMECOMMAND
and partilly download files.

To get an idea what is wrong, try to download a small packages.
Please make an emerge -f app-admin/perl-cleaner.
After that compare the
digest  /usr/portage/app-admin/perl-cleaner/files/digest-perl-cleaner-1.01
with thhe downloaded file.
cd /usr/portage/distfiles
md5sum perl-cleaner-1.01.tar.gz
a657d9e9264cd9f550bd2c55c1220785  perl-cleaner-1.01.tar.gz
ls -l perl-cleaner-1.01.tar.gz
I hope this will clarify, if you have problem with downloading the file or
with gzip/md5sum.

Best regards Joerg

[gentoo-amd64] problems with portage and Digest verification Failed

2005-06-26 Thread Tim Ames

I'm running it looks like linux-2.6.7-gentoo-r14

I haven't been able to get online for quite a while now.  When I originally 
compiled I was on satellite and had a network connection that enabled me to 
download just about anything I wanted.  I didn't have ppp compiled in the 
kernel and I kept trying to get wvdial emerged or ppp working in the 
machine to use a serial modem for dialup as that is all I can afford right 
now, and probably all I can get in the location I'm living in.


The problems started trying to emerge wvdial, I downloaded manually off of 
one of the mirrors and put the files in



/usr/portage/distfiles and then tried to emerge them on the machine

I started getting md5 errors trying to emerge the files that I had 
downloaded and burned to a cd using windows xp.


I kept trying, deleted the files, put the machine finally online using 
another machine on dialup and setting internet connection sharing and got 
the 64bit gentoo machine online that way.  I tried doing and emerge sync 
several times and still kept coming up with

this message.

Digest verification Failed:
/usr/portage/distfiles/any downloaded .tar.gz file here
Reason:  failed on MD5 verification

I kept looking through the forums tried all the suggestions, ie ... 
changing mirrors, re downloading, rebuilding the digest
then I downloaded the webrsync file and rewrote the whole portage tree.  I 
still get the MD5 errors.


When I go to emerge a file that is in /usr/portage/distfiles  I get this error

gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

when I try to gunzip the file I get
!!!ERROR: dev-libs/xplc-0.3.11 failed
!!!Function unpack, Line 375, Exitcode 2
!!!failure unpacking   ... yada yada


I'm at the point where I'm ready to wipe everything out and start over again.

Can this be fixed??


thanks in advance

Tim
