Hi Fernando, with this driver the first step is doing a ifconfig ethX up before any wireless related configuration.

Fredrik Tolf wrote: Hi List! I recently upgraded xorg-x11 to 7.0, as it was unmasked in stable. However, I was given some font problems along with the upgrade. I haven't found anything on either Google or on bugs.gentoo.org, so I'm turning to the list now. My main problem is that xfs (the X font server, not the filesystem) hogs the CPU for about 2-3 seconds whenever I start a new xterm, blocking the new xterm during that time. I haven't found the exact extent of programs affected by the problem -- right now, I only know that xterm and twm are affected. I've tried turning off xfs and moving the FontPaths into the X server itself, but that only made the problem worse (taking 6+ seconds instead). Does a symlink /usr/share/fonts/fonts exist? There is also another, unrelated and rather minor, problem: The 8x16 fixed font seems to have disappeared in 7.0. Does anyone know where it went? Try font-schumacher-misc or font-sony-misc.

Hrm, these are really not sane. -march is telling gcc to build C code
that will only run on a p4, and then you have -mtune specifying to run
on everything back to a pentium-II. I *think* -march takes precedence
here
But for C++ code, you are specifying that should run on any P-II. So
C and C++ code is being compiled in very different ways on your
system. This is bad. I have no idea whether these are causing your
problems with akregator or not however...
BTW, the TEXTREL messages are directly attributable to your CXXFLAGS.
I built akregator with the same flags, and get the same messages.
So what I recommend you set in /etc/make.conf is:
CFLAGS=-march=pentium4 -O2 -pipe
CXXFLAGS=${CFLAGS}
Then re-merge akregator. If you still have trouble, try renaming
~/.kde3.5 to ~/.kde3.5.old and start it. If that works then some
akregator configuration in .kde3.5.old is responsible.
Finally, may want to recompile your entire system with the fixed
compiler flags. This can usually be done with an emerge -e world,
but this will take a long time! You can also grep the CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS
files in the /var/db/pkg/ database to see what packages you merged
with particular flags. For example: grep -r --include=CXXFLAGS --

2006/7/14, Daniel Iliev [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Linux can run trash even now. The funniest thing is that *trashers* don't know it and they think windows is irreplaceable for great many programs but that's not true...at least not any more. And so I don't use windows. The only thing I miss is the perfect ICQ client. GAIM is nice, but I'm a bit tired of the away message issue. They just don't get it work. Kopete, well, they have a broken file transfer thing. And file transfers are more important for me than just showing people a bit of text. And I like CenterICQ. I have a linux box (I have tree linux boxes - all my boxes run linux (you know, I can't stand windows) except my notebook, but the ACPI support just sucks. I know, Linus. The ACPI designers are monkeys on drugs. We all know.) which I want to connect to wherever I am. And I want to run ICQ wherever I am. And I can't install VNC clients or nx-clients wherever I am. So I just run ssh or PuTTY. And it works. I just miss things like file transfers. One of the most popular false beliefs is linux can't run games. I don't play computer games. But if someone sais this (and this happens from time to time), I run Nexuiz or Quake4-Demo or stuff. And everytime I show people: Hey, you don't need windows to play games. And you see, this is an old box (PIII, 550MHz; AMD, 800MHz) which just runs this games without any problems. And then they are a bit impressed. Another thing: My scanner is connected to my father's computer. I personally don't have a scanner and I don't need it. Well, I scanned a picture with highest quality, which resulted in a 20MiB JPEG.

I doubt such games will ever have native linux port, because to re-code directx-game to opengl would actually mean to make a completely different game.

I would have thought that having both -march and -mtune would be valid, but normally would be other way round by having, for example, '-march=i686 -mtune=pentium4' to build code which will run on a pentium-II or later but optimised for running on a P4. Right, this is the normal case. But in some sense, you could also consider -march to have precedence here. If it ever needs to make a choice between generating optimized code for a p4, or code that will run on a P-II, gcc will choose the P-II compatible code.

Re: [gentoo-user] Before doing something wrong
If you installed a program that you no longer need, you can do a emerge -C package name and it will remove it for you. The -C is the same as --clean by the way. Nope, -C is the short for --unmerge. -c would be --clean. And --clean cleans a package, that means when you have two versions of a non slotted ebuild installed. It automatically happens after you upgrade a package, first the new version is installed parallel to the existing one, then the old one is cleaned out.

[gentoo-user] Cannot remove files: operation not permitted
Hi there, I was trying to make a clean install on a disk with a previous installation of Gentoo on a reiserfs partition, but I wanted to keep some files. I thought I would be able to boot with the LiveCD, mount the partition, remove everything except the files I wanted to keep (moving them to a temporal directory) and then copy a stage3 to the partition. After mounting the partition and trying to rm -rf a directory I got a Cannot remove ... operation not permitted. After googlong a while I found about chattr, and although it seems this is a ext2/3 tool I tried it and I was able to remove some files after doing a chattr -ia on them. Any way, there are some files I'm not able to delete, and they seem to be non regular files (links, linux sockets,...). Any idea why this is happening? Thanks in advance, best regards Jose
[gentoo-user] Linux Kernel Warning
Hi Folks: I received the following warning from SANS yesterday, and I need to know how to appropriately respond: http://www.isc.sans.org/diary.php?storyid=1482 To summarize the story at the above link, there appears to be a vulnerability in the linux kernel, which when exploited, will allow a user to gain root privileges.

As of this morning, the latest Kernel version in portage is 2.6.16-r12. It seems that there is a different versioning / naming scheme used but im not sure.
