RE: [gentoo-user] Xserver on Dell Inspiron M1710
I might be able to help as well (also didn't see the earlier part of this thread)... I have several M710's at work running both gentoo and Ubuntu, and X is running ok on them. Getting the config from a liveCD is a good place to start if you're really not sure. One thing though - since some other items were mentioned (albeit briefly), regarding kernel and splashimage, maybe a quick review of the system would refresh those of us who are now on the radar with you... sounds like re-hashing, but we can't fix one thing and break three others.

Re: [gentoo-user] Xserver on Dell Inspiron M1710
Hi all, First, I have to thank you *all* for your patience with me. I'm not a developer and my formal computer training is limited. However, I'm not stupid (I know no one has implied that), but I get a little frustrated when I've done something successfully a half dozen times and now it doesn't work. The difference with this Gentoo install is the nvidia card. I've always used ATI cards and after this experience, I think I still prefer them. Anyway, Iain Buchanan wrote: On Fri, 2007-05-04 at 08:50 -0400, Colleen Beamer wrote: Iain Buchanan wrote: On Fri, 2007-05-04 at 00:32 -0400, Colleen Beamer wrote: Mouse support is compiled into my kernel (genkernel) Although the section for keyboard is there, there isn't a relevant choice to pick, but I assume that's because this is a laptop. are you able to post your kernel .config file somewhere?

I think I *may* have solved my problem. I had nvidia (NV2) support built into the kernel. I rebuilt the kernel without nvidia support, removed xorg-x11 and removed nvidia-drivers. Then I did emerge --update --deep nvidia-drivers. A bunch of stuff was updated because of newer versions being available, but a number of things were installed - like kbd and mouse. I don't know maybe having nvidia support built into the kernel was preventing the xorg drivers for mouse and keyboard being installed. I *did* read the nvidia guide, but I must have misunderstood because I thougt that only older nv drivers were incompatible with newer cards. Anyway, now I'm emerging KDE. Will let you know officially how it goes. Regards, Colleen -- Registered Linux User #411143 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

That's because virtually all modern monitors/cards speak DDC and Xorg can ask the hardware when it starts what the hardware supports. The only thing Colleen *has* to customize here is the correct Driver for her nvdia card alan I may be wrong but I think this is not quite correct. I had to look for the specs (hsync, vsync) of my LCD because X was trying to run it on higher refresh rates resulting in out of range errors. On the other hand Colleen said the screen was garbled - doesn't seem to be an out of range problem. Probably it would be best if Colleen attached or linked to Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf and maybe kernel output [if that kernel recompilation didn't fix the problems of course]. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I have no need to see that full list of USE flags between braces on
the Available versions line - the information is already on
the Installed versions line.
It is accidental that the informations are identical in this case.
The first one are the useflags of all ebuilds for the package, the
second one are that stored in /var/db/pkg. You will see a
difference for other packages (e.g. probably for gcc or *-sources).
Note that if you use -l (--versionlines) the IUSE output will be even
more verbose, but I guess if you look at the gcc/*-sources example
you will understand the reason.

With empty directories, you at least get a basic system booting up with fewer complaints. Let me repeat the reason for the oddness.

[gentoo-user] What STABLE nForce 680i based motherboard?
What STABLE nForce 680i based motherboard? I am about to build a new Gentoo system, most of the components I have already chosen and are listed at the end of this post. (It will be a Core 2 Duo E6700 based system, nForce 680i chipset with one GeForce 8800 GTS card.) For gaming (windoze) there seems to be several good motherboard choices. The issue is that while I will get in a gaming session in Windows every few days, the rest of the time the system will be running Gentoo (64-bit) and the Linux sessions need to be stable for tasks like multi-day runs of POV-Ray (and lots of compiling, of course.) Because of the stability requirement I don't plan to over-clock, except for using EPP: (so I want an nForce based system and Corsair memory.) I have read about some great motherboards for gaming but also about some stability issues with some of those boards. With the components listed below, what motherboard(s) would anyone recommend? (If you can think of better components, please mention those as well.) Anyone have any links to good nForce 680i mother-board reviews?
