| 00:02.01 | mynoch | gul_evek: i get unresolved symbols when loading module nvidia |
| 00:02.26 | mynoch | {un,}register_ioctl32_conversion |
| 00:02.35 | mynoch | and sys_ioctl |
| 00:03.00 | mynoch | might i ask why i would need 32 bit conversion? i thought there were 64 bit drivers |
| 00:03.49 | ValJean | Possibly so that 32 bit user space code can call the driver. |
| 00:03.49 | mynoch | how do i go about finding the kernel source packages? |
| 00:04.06 | gul_evek | oh wait.. you're 64 bit? |
| 00:04.16 | mynoch | gul_evek: yesiree |
| 00:04.47 | ValJean | Looks like gentoo will have to wait another week. |
| 00:05.10 | *** join/#utah synic|l (~synic@nocat.xmission.com) |
| 00:05.29 | mynoch | ValJean: hoping to learn what? just 64 bit gentoo in general, or some specific topic? |
| 00:05.41 | ValJean | 64 bit gentoo in general |
| 00:05.51 | ValJean | still haven't had a chance to install it |
| 00:06.13 | gul_evek | ah... |
| 00:06.45 | mynoch | do i have to go to kernel.org to get my source for 2.6.9 or what? |
| 00:06.51 | ValJean | Not even the one's from nvidia.com? |
| 00:07.08 | mynoch | ValJean: with 'emerge nvidia-kernel' |
| 00:07.23 | mynoch | and yes, i believe it's from nvidia.com |
| 00:07.25 | ValJean | So don't try doing an emerge nvidia-kernel |
| 00:07.55 | ValJean | You tried a normal gentoo 64 bit kernel, and compiling the driver's from nvida? |
| 00:08.08 | ValJean | Perhaps try doing it without a network connect so it has to compile them. |
| 00:09.35 | mynoch | ? |
| 00:10.12 | mynoch | yes, normal 64 bit gentoo kernel |
| 00:10.35 | ValJean | The nvidia driver install tries to find a pre-compiled binary. If it doesn't find one, it tries to download one. If it can't, it just compiles one itself. |
| 00:10.52 | gul_evek | mynoch: it should have links2 on the livecd |
| 00:10.58 | gul_evek | it's like lynx |
| 00:11.00 | mynoch | stinkin elinks spans the text past the screen width, and i cant figure out the horizontal scroll |
| 00:11.11 | gul_evek | links2? |
| 00:11.34 | mynoch | gul_evek: the live cd did. but i'm no longer on the cd |
| 00:11.40 | mynoch | and i didn't remember links2 |
| 00:11.43 | gul_evek | oh... |
| 00:11.46 | ValJean | How about wget? |
| 00:11.53 | mynoch | (i thought it was elinks2, and i couldn't find it |
| 00:11.55 | mynoch | ) |
| 00:12.07 | mynoch | wget is obviously there ;) |
| 00:12.09 | gul_evek | ah... |
| 00:12.14 | ValJean | I can put the NVIDIA installer on my site. |
| 00:12.15 | mynoch | but i need to browse to find the url |
| 00:12.52 | ValJean | mynoch: uploading now |
| 00:14.39 | gul_evek | ValJean: what's your site? |
| 00:14.51 | ValJean | <PROTECTED> |
| 00:15.00 | mynoch | actually, i have the installer on my other partition from debian |
| 00:15.06 | gul_evek | nm |
| 00:15.13 | mynoch | might not be the newest version, though |
| 00:16.40 | mynoch | yeah, i still have it, thx anyway ValJean |

| 01:09.04 | gul_evek | mynoch, i need these wires cut... any chance you could chew on them for me? |
| 01:09.57 | ValJean | Done! |
| 01:10.45 | ValJean | And I have to say, if you want to get started using CVS to control your system's configuration, you'd be hard pressed to find better material. |
| 01:11.33 | gul_evek | ValJean: congrats! |
| 01:12.04 | gul_evek | so, i know where to go if i need help when i start working with it... |
| 01:12.45 | ValJean | Oh, no, I don't want to type all that again. |
| 01:12.53 | ValJean | You're going to have to join the navy and take the class. |
| 01:13.02 | gul_evek | uh huh.. |
| 01:13.09 | gul_evek | or you could just do copy and paste... :) |
| 01:15.42 | ValJean | Sorry, nope. Don't own the material. I'm just the author. |
| 01:16.58 | ValJean | Although you can bet I'm keeping a copy for myself. |
| 01:17.04 | gul_evek | true... |
| 01:17.13 | gul_evek | but you could answer random questions... |
| 01:17.16 | gul_evek | right? |
| 01:17.49 | gul_evek | pleeeaassee? |
| 01:19.44 | ValJean | sure |
| 01:19.49 | ValJean | But now I'm going home. |
| 01:20.09 | gul_evek | tis ok.. |
| 01:20.30 | gul_evek | since i haven/t played with it yet |
