| NewCastleScott | adeeln yes and the kernel was built for the support .The modem is seen by name in lsusb I dont know how to add it to the .conf |
| adeeln | djoxy: even if revdep-rebuild can't actually emerge the packages, it should give you a list of packages that are broken, and you can try manually emerging them |
| djoxy | adeeln: there are like 350 packages broken |
| connyosis | djoxy: followed the gcc upgrade guide? |
| djoxy | all have broken links with linexpat.so.0 |
| adeeln | NewCastleScott: you might want to do a google search for 'linux network usb' |
| djoxy | yep... |
| connyosis | djoxy: dev-libs/expat |
| djoxy | recompiled my system all was ok |
| yangman | MoxJet: you can recompile in your current environment |
| djoxy | connyosis: yeah emerging it now hopefully it will work out |
| Rend | whats a safe command to remove unneeded dependencies? |
| llyod | Is there a way to define a keyboard layout (for X), without the xorg.conf ? |
| MoxJet | yangman: ok thanks I'll try find the dhcp-includes |
| djoxy | ok the problem was in the new version of expat libs |
| adeeln | Rend: you can try doing an 'emerge --depclean' and immediately issue a 'revdep-rebuild' |
| djoxy | Please note that the soname of the library changed! |
| Ki | thanks adeeln: trouble is what do I type in google? "screen goes black after BIOS check successful lilo"? hmm.. I'll see. |
| djoxy | If you are upgrading from a previous version you need * to fix dynamic linking inconsistencies:) |
| NewCastleScott | adeeln I think I just need to distinguish the tru location of the connection and the name so I can add it to the config file |
| scythetleppo | I have a question |
| adeeln | Ki: i'd probably search for something like 'black screen lilo' and see what you get |
| Plouj | I've never had the kernel broken after updating a Gentoo system, I need some hand-holding! |
| llyod | no one can answer me? |
| Rend | revdep-rebuild will repair any broken dependencies i take it? |
| adeeln | NewCastleScott: well the connection should live somewhere in /dev |
| azazello | Ki: so since lilo _doesn't_ work, why not try grub? |
| tuxick | why wouldn't lilo work? |
| adeeln | Rend: more or less |
| tuxick | that sounds like a serious hardware problem |
| Rend | ok thanks adeeln |
| caze_donfusion | NewCastleScott: try usb0 =P |
| adeeln | plouj: what exactly is your system not doing? |
| NewCastleScott | adeeln I have googled myself to death and have not found a gentoo wiki or anything gentoo about it.I know it can be done.I am very new to linux in genral so I have tryed commands for other os and I dont know how to translate them yet |
| Plouj | llyod: you could try asking your question on the mailing list and forum |
| djoxy | oh... multiple package in one slot problem revdep is dead :) |
| Ki | azazello: because, if I try grub and IT doesn't work then I have NO OS now do I? |
| Plouj | adeeln: right, if I boot into my kernel it panics because hotplug seg.faults |
| caze_donfusion | NewCastleScott: with the usb modem plugged in `ifconfig usb0` |
