Re: [gentoo-user] Howto compile Xgl on Gentoo (to have dual seat box)
2008/11/12 b.n. [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Does anybody know how to compile Xgl on Gentoo box ? Xgl has been discontinued: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xgl Can't you do the same with AIGLX in Xorg? So it seems to be funny now ... there is too many obsolete projects Xnest, Xephyt, Xgl, Xegl (probably never finished). From experience I can say, if there is too many solutions for the same purpose, no one is perfect :-(. Thanks for suggestion, I'll try it. noro
[gentoo-user] Howto compile Xgl on Gentoo (to have dual seat box)
Hi, I have dual head nvidia card and like to make dual seat gentoo box. (i.e. two people can work simultaneously, using their own monitor+mouse+kbd) I met these problems: 1. one X window server can work only with one mouse, kbd and VGA card 2. nvidia driver doesn't allow to run two X servers on single dual head card I configured Xorg.conf for two semi independent screens (signed as :0.0 and :0.1), but didn't succeed to attach extra kbd/mouse to them. (I can run e.g. mplayer on one screen in fullscreen mode and work on the other, but still using one mouse+kbd.) I got inspired by this link: http://research.edm.uhasselt.be/~jori/page/index.php?n=Misc.DualSeatX So I have to compile Xgl, run it on both screens and then attach extra mouse + kbd to them via XevdevServer. Does anybody know how to compile Xgl on Gentoo box ? TIA. noro I found these outdated links, but nothing useful: http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/XGL http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-641342.html http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Xgl
Re: [gentoo-user] Reboots ok...but no Shutdown
2006/12/21, Douglas Linford [EMAIL PROTECTED]: When I log out of Gentoo and select reboot, the computer reboots fine, but when I select shutdown, the computer hangs at: Remounting remaning filesystems readonly, and no other messages. It just sits forever. I re-emerged baselayout and checked my shutdown.sh, it all looks ok, but...no go. Any ideas? Douglas Did u check other virtual screens ? (The messages u are looking for can be on one of them.) If the machine do not switch off, probe to play with ACPI APM in kernel setup. noro -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] OT - Virtual Caller ID with asterisk?

Is this possible with asterisk? My modem is only Fax/Data (no voice), but this shouldn't be a problem if all I want is the caller ID, should it? which type of line do u have ? e.g. classic analog, ISDN, ADSL, VDSL ... Classic I guess. My regular caller ID box conked out a couple of months ago, and as we cannot easily afford a new one, I was hoping I could use the computer for that... OK, as Iain answered, if your modem support it, u can read CID from it. Just connect to modem from minicom and RTFM modem's manual. The easyiest solution is to buy a specialized box (I bough it for ~10 EUR). Asterisk can log CID 4u, and/or forward incoming calls to a VoIP phone, but u'll need a special * compatible card, e.g. Digium X100P (obsolete/ sometimes still available on eBay) or another modem card based on MD3200 Cirrus Logic/Ambient chipset, intel 537PG or 537PU chipsets, but keep away from 537EP, which is unsupported. noro -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Booting Gentoo 2006.1 on an iMac
2006/9/10, Charles Trois [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hello, I am having trouble while installing 2006.1 on my iMac. I have made other installations before, but never had this problem. I am using the Universal ppc disk, and I have followed strictly all the steps in the 2006.1 handbook. I have not made any modules, everything is in the kernel. What happens is that, on the final reboot, I see 10 or 15 lines of text (is that the Open Firmware part?) that disappear immediately. Then there is nothing, and I have to cut the power to go on. I have also made a more complete version of yaboot.conf with macos, macosx, etc. Then the bootloader shows these options (ignores enablecdboot and enableofboot, though). Typing x for macosx starts it normally, but l for linux fails as described above. This is done without an Internet connexion. I haven't got one yet because my new modem is a Speedtouch 510v5 Ethernet type, which works very well with osx, but is notoriously troublesome with Linux (but this is another affair). I should be grateful for any hints. Charles Maybe too late, but this can be helpfull: http://www.unixboard.de/vb3/showthread.php?t=11619 HTH noro -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
