Re: [gentoo-user] Video Card of Death! (Yes its on topic.)
I have Xorg7.1 ati-drivers, that's work fine.On 8/15/06, Neil Isaac [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 8/15/06, Ian Kabeary [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi there, My laptop has a Radeon 9100. Toshiba advertised a 9000 so at the time I was happy. Then I realized that the proprietary ATi drivers dont give this card 3d acceleration, which it is totally capable of. Anyway, I tried the wiki instructions on getting this card to work but they are quite cryptic the way they have written them. It kind of branches off into three different ways of doing it, but you never know what reading to skip and what to do. I got reasonably far. What I did was take the support for the direct rendering manager out of the kernel, while including the Radeon driver and other associated things. For the purposes of this support request, I do not believe they are completely relevant. After doing what I think it was that I should do, I started X. (I have 7.1.1 by the way). What I end up with is that it cant find the drivers because the version of the radeon driver version doesn't match the server version or something? I have no idea what that means. Projects use wy different versioning systems. Seriously, I have no clue what its going on about! :) Is this a cryptic way of saying the driver wants Xorg 7.0?Xorg 7.0 should be fine. Nvidia and ati have not released drivers thatwork with 7.1 yet. In my experience, ati drivers are hell to getworking (I never did get them working in the end - but I do have friends who have gotten them up and running) so I wish you luck.--Neil Isaac[EMAIL PROTECTED]--gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list-- Julien Cabillot
Re: [gentoo-user] Re: is samba 3.0.23b available in some form
I'm not on a gentoo box now, so it should be something like that: # mv samba-3.0.23a.ebuild /path/to/an/overlay/the_category-for_samba/samba/samba-3.0.23b.ebuild # ebuild samba-3.0.23b.ebuild digest # emerge -u samba If you don't have an overlay yettake a look at: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Installing_3rd_Party_Ebuilds On 8/13/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Stefan Schweizer [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone know if something is available in version 3.0.23b?

Something here is a bit confusing... I don't understand how renamingone version of samba to another does much for me.I need the actual

Often, new versions don't need change in parameters/commands.
Unless something very magic happens at:# ebuild samba-3.0.23b.ebuild digest
The digest is just a security option (this create the md5 of the file).-- Julien Cabillot
