There are plenty of packages within portage which have no longer been
maintained for just as long as xmms (see cgoban for an example). It seems
that this is a rather silly choice of packages to single out. It seems to
me that xmms can live a perfectly natural life within portage so long as it
is
Also, be sure to have support for pc bios partition tables (in some
kernel releases, it's not a default selection, and I believe the error
is the same because the kernel can't tell which device is sda3, or
whatever partition you're using.

My understanding is that the major advantage of the 64-bit processors
is for memory address space (>4Gigs of virtual memory space without
PAE, technically 48 bits of address space, which is something like
128Terrabytes of addressable memory).
There must be some advantage associated with being abl
Yea, What architecture are you running on? Is it possible that you
have some kind of memory interleaving option turned on in your bios
that isn't working right because of slight timing differences in the
manufacturing of each stick of ram? Are they exactly the same spec
(CAS,NS, etc..)? What's
less thinclient. Regardless, that should
tell you everything you need to know, or where to look for the few
pieces you're missing.

Yea, of course you can do that, though you have to be careful if your
kernel tree has changed to a different version than the one you're
booted from (usually you can still just force the module to load, but
a module from a different kernel tree may not want to play nicely with
everything else).

Well, all mileage may vary.
Personally, I prefer to not have things loaded into the kernel when
I'm not using them. It's not really a performance or a memory saving
thing, but more of an OCD thing. I'm sure that, in the grand scheme
of things, the little time/power/whatever I save by keeping th

I had some weird problems with the emerge -e system (libraries not
being properly identified to ./config scripts, that blocking issue
with pam.d & shadow, usual unstable tree stuff), but after toying with
it for a few hours, I have a successfully running desktop.

Anyone know what the most appropriate way to modify settings on a WinCE handheld via scripting? I really only need to modify wireless settings (SSID, WEP), home page, and startup programs. I have pcr working on the things, but am unfortunately so unfamiliar with administration on a windows platfo
There was a really good guide on how to do this (at least, from the point of view of booting an nfs-mounted root directory) in the alternate installation guide. I'm pretty sure that you have to compile grub with the --enable-diskless option. I'm not really sure how to do that easily within portag
duh, sorry, case of me not fully reading the manpage. I'll be sure and fully read before I send to the list. Thanks a lot,--MikeOn 5/24/06,

Hi, I'm just trying to do some quick calculations using bc, but the version installed through portage truncates on multiplication/division. It didn't used to do this 2 years ago when I was taking number theory, and there are no USE flags available for sys-devel/bc to change this. From the manpa
