[18:20]<rxrjsyvn>_AxS_: no, I don't think so.
[18:20]<sydavwjzc>morning all
[18:20]<_aws_>ah ok. then yes, root=/dev/sda4 (assuming that's /) and you're good. altho you want a root (hd0,x) above that too to specify where your /boot is
[18:20]<ywcsn>where i can find a menu-editor for gnome?
[18:21]<tfkdfn>iwkse: emerge smeg
[18:21]<ywcsn>thanks
[18:21]<gzgg_>uhh.. guys i have a new question :)
[18:21]<ywcsn>TFKyle: i have it MASKED..
[18:21]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: any idea?
[18:22]<svuup>iwkse: unmask it
[18:22]<gzgg_>!gnome-base/gnome-core -> what is this :S
[18:22]<_aws_>mijenix, you have your grub.conf pastes somewhere?
[18:22]<gzgg_>i think it is basked ?
[18:22]<gzgg_>masked*
[18:22]<ywcsn>how to do it, stuuf?
[18:22]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: no I can't
[18:22]<fgwgv>hi everybody
[18:22]<svuup>iwkse: "echo 'x11-misc/smeg' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords"
[18:22]<tfkdfn>iwkse: add x11-misc/smeg ~x86 (replace x86 with your arch if you are using another arch) to /etc/portage/package.keywords
[18:23]<_aws_>mijenix, ok.. what's your kernel name and the partitions for your /boot and / ? i'll give you what you need..
[18:23]<pznm__>hey all, trying to get xterm to display but i get an error saying "cant open display" is there a security setting somewhere?
[18:23]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: but I don't thnik this is grub.conf he saif VFS: Cannot open root device "sda4" or unknown-block(0,0)
[18:23]<_aws_>mijenix, ...sda4 is your / ?
[18:23]<_aws_>mijenix, did you compile in the correct SATA driver?
[18:24]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: I should
[18:24]<_aws_>mijenix, as <*>, it won't work as <M>
[18:24]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: yes <*>
[18:25]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: < > Intel PIIX/ICH SATA support
[18:25]<ywcsn>thanks both, stuuf ^ TFKyle
[18:25]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: <*> Intel PIIX/ICH SATA support
[18:25]<fgwgv>can you give me a hint where to install my sound system in gentoo?
[18:25]<_aws_>mijenix, check again -- /dev/sda4 doesn't exist, so its thinking you didn't...
[18:25]<myeylejz>hi all, im attending to a small lan party right now and im having problem getting my network to start... booted into windows now... anyone got any suggested steps for troubleshooting? still quite new to linux
[18:25]<_aws_>mijenix, and that's definitely the right one for you? what controller you got?
[18:26]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: the device.map says (hd0) /dev/sda
[18:26]<_aws_>mijenix, we're beyond that, your issue is with udev.
[18:26]<myeylejz>i ran dhcpcp eth0, i got a ip from the router, all good... i can ping others here... but i cant ping google (unknown hostname) or access the internet
[18:26]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: what u need lspci output?
[18:26]<_aws_>mijenix, yep that'll help..
[18:26]<2jgsrycyvvgg>Mizipzor, misssing dns entry?
[18:27]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: ok moment
[18:27]<myeylejz>bonsaikitten, in what file do i need to input that into?
[18:27]<_aws_>mijenix, dumb n00b q, but just in case -- you definitely copied over your bzImage file to /boot when /boot was mounted, yes?
[18:28]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: SATA controller: Intel 82801GBM/GHM ICH7 familiy Serial ATA Storage Controller AHCI (rev 02)
[18:28]<2jgsrycyvvgg>Mizipzor, usually dhcp sets that correctly, /etc/resolv.conf would be the file
[18:28]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: yes because grub can load the kernel
[18:28]<_aws_>mijenix, ...hmm.. ok, i'd be leaning towards using sata_ahci compared to sata_piix
[18:29]<myeylejz>bonsaikitten, i see, maybe i reboot and check that file... any other suggestions right off? so i dont need to reboot more than neceserry
[18:29]<rycyn>is there a GUI program to resize a bunch of images?
[18:29]<svuup>who needs a gui?
[18:29]<rycyn>I do
[18:29]<gzzy2zfmy>why would you want a GUI program to do something to a bunch of anything
[18:29]<svuup>convert image1.jpg -sample 800x600 image2.jpg
[18:29]<myeylejz>aikie, go to windows then :P
[18:30]<gdvzo>Mizipzor, try #route add default gateway <gateway ip>
[18:30]<gzzy2zfmy>for i in $(ls images); do whatever $i; done
[18:30]<rycyn>a gui is just easier than searching down a manpage to find the option you need
[18:30]<_aws_>mijenix, the reason i asked with /boot is because you might've compiled once, copied, then recompiled but didn't copy over top of the first one.. so yes you have a kernel that boots but no its not the right one..
[18:30]<2jgsrycyvvgg>stuarth, Mizipzor: please don't troll :-)
[18:30]<myeylejz>nytr8, i tried... no effect... still got an ip and can ping locals... but not google
[18:30]<fdnfmd>Garibaldi just gave you what you need
[18:30]<myeylejz>bonsaikitten, sorry :P i saw it as a joke
[18:30]<wusxy>anyone here knows how to backup with rar? i'm looking for how it can have some kind of backup in it, incase some part of it gets corrupted or something
[18:30]<myeylejz>aikie, my apoligies :) no harm meant
[18:31]<svuup>aikie: emerge imagemagick, use convert -sample in a for loop
[18:31]<_aws_>xushi, rar or tar?
[18:31]<wusxy>_AxS_: i didn't knkow tar can also do that
[18:31]<_aws_>xushi, that's what tar is for, actually... :)
[18:31]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: it's the last i configured and compiled
[18:31]<rycyn>thanks I know these commands, i was just wondering if there exists a gui version of it
[18:31]<gdvzo>Mizipzor, try and ping that >> 66.102.7.99
[18:31]<wusxy>_AxS_: excellent! can i ask for advice on it? =)
[18:31]<_aws_>mijenix, ok cool. I guess then try using sata_ahci and see if that works.
[18:31]<gdvzo>Mizipzor, its google.
[18:32]<_aws_>xushi, ..sure.. not much to ask but go for it
[18:32]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: i have it
[18:32]<gzzy2zfmy>aikie: in my experience, very few guis do batch processing
[18:32]<myeylejz>nytr8, ah! smart... maybe its just the dns that troubling
[18:32]<_aws_>mijenix, ..you have both?
[18:32]<gdvzo>Youll know if you have to add the dns servers to your resolv.conf
[18:32]<2jgsrycyvvgg>Mizipzor, nameserver 213.131.232.32 should work
[18:32]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: I forgot AHCI SATA Support
[18:32]<dyaggyw>:(
[18:32]<myeylejz>bonsaikitten, why? whats that?
[18:32]<gzwdfwg>hi
[18:32]<2jgsrycyvvgg>Mizipzor, for /etc/resolv.conf
[18:32]<gzwdfwg>is there a way to convert ntfs to linux raid partitions?
[18:32]<njfrffyjus>with emerge how can I update the base system of linux tools like: gdb, objdump, strace, etc...
[18:32]<_aws_>mijenix, ok try turning tha ton and turning off the piix/ich sata support
[18:32]<wusxy>_AxS_: for rar i used to use rar a -o+ -m5 -mm -v102400k name.rar folder/ (that's without backup btw).. but what can i do in tar to make sure it divides every 100MB, and to have some sort of backup failsafe in it ?
[18:33]<fdnfmd>Gr3ml1n: nope, copy the data somewhere else, make the raid partitions, format them, copy back
[18:33]<2jgsrycyvvgg>Gr3ml1n, apart from copying away, reformatting and copying back?
[18:33]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: i don't need that?
[18:33]<wusxy>_AxS_: because i'm taring 160k files in 100k subfolders onto DVDs
[18:33]<_aws_>xushi, Ahh.. ok tar by default doesn't split the files. so rar would be better probably
[18:33]<myeylejz>bonsaikitten, ok ill try that
[18:33]<dyaggyw>_AxS_: the piix/ich
[18:33]<gzwdfwg>well if you can provide me with ~ 80 gb of disk space cuz mine is all full ;P
[18:33]<_aws_>mijenix, no you don't need both, in fact i think they would conflict if you had both
