[gentoo-user] MacBook: How many hours on battery with Gentoo?

2008-02-15 Thread Lowe Schmidt

Hi.

I'm planning on buying myself a MacBook and I'm just wondering if anyone
knows how many hours I will get out of it if I run Gentoo. I mainly use 
a bunch

of terminals, gvim and some lightweigth gtk app so nothing heavy going on.

All input appreciated

Ruby gems fails to install with the following error (this is the topmost 
build error?):



 * Messages for package dev-ruby/rubygems-0.9.4-r2:

 * 
 * ERROR: dev-ruby/rubygems-0.9.4-r2 failed.

 * Call stack:
 *  ebuild.sh, line 1701:  Called dyn_compile


thanks,

It's not the topmost build error, above that.

[gentoo-user] what NFP means?

2008-02-13 Thread Lowe Schmidt

I guess it means Not For Profit.

Hi, I try to translate the GMN(2008-01-21), and now I want to know
what "NFP" exactly means or the full spelling of "NFP" in the section
below.
**
Foundation Status

Grant Goodyear, one of our active foundation trustees, recently gave
an update on the status of the Gentoo foundation on his blog. The
Gentoo Foundation does still exist, and the required paperwork to
reinstate our NFP status has been filed. For more information, you can
read Grant's post on the gentoo-nfp mailing list.

Any help will be appreciated?

The scenario is a bit bizarre I'd say.

They would continue to develop it even if *no-one*, outside of the
developers, used it?  We'll have to agree to disagree on that, even if
it's a bit of hyperbole.
