| Triffid_Hunter | vrkhans: mine works fine.. |
| Monkeh | zlost1: And the quality of Gentoo has nothing to do with a binary driver written by idiots. |
| davo | brycec: so how would you suggest viewing .rmvb files? |
| Monkeh | vrkhans: As above, it depends on the network and hardware. vrkhans: Sane network, sane hardware, sure, it supports it. |
| PyroSmoke | hi |
| zlost1 | wow, were you once an employee of ati ? |
| ejb_ | anyone use the rt2500/rt2570 drivers for RaLink chipsets? |
| PyroSmoke | I wonder why gnome-screenshot and gnome-volume-control are not on portage ? |
| zlost1 | you sound disgruntled |
| Monkeh | zlost1: Thankfully, no. |
| brycec | davo, Sorry I don't think there is any support any more. Helix's own website links to the broken location so I there's nothing we can do. |
| doc|home | can we get back on-topic please. |
| vrkhans | but how ubuntu support it and in gentoo it doest detect it, why |
| Monkeh | zlost1: I've just had a crappy experience with their hardware and software under Windows. Under Linux, well, it barely worked as a generic device. Their driver never, ever worked for me. vrkhans: Because Ubuntu comes with a driver, and Gentoo clearly doesn't (this is a good thing) |
| doc|home | Monkeh: no need to get snarky |
| Monkeh | doc|home: Sorry, tired. I really should go to bed.. |
| vrkhans | monkeh , this is good how |
| PyroSmoke | nobody can answer me ? :( |
| Monkeh | vrkhans: Because poor quality wireless drivers cause problems. Major ones. |
| Triffid_Hunter | zlost1: the open source radeon driver works fairly well in my experience.. easily better than the binary one zlost1: doesn't support many of the more recent cards though |
| Monkeh | PyroSmoke: I have them. Let me see.. |
| davo | okay thanks brycec, you saved me from wasting a nite on it :D |
| PyroSmoke | Monkeh> ok :) |
| Monkeh | PyroSmoke: gnome-media and gnome-utils |
| brycec | davo, heh sorry I couldn't actually help |
| vrkhans | Monkeh what should i do to solve my problem so i can use my network and internet |
| PyroSmoke | Monkeh> ah ok, thanks a lot :) |
| Monkeh | .. Right, I'm going to bed.. |
| ejb_ | Should I use in kernel ieee80211 or the portage version? |
| gantman | anyone using jack and have sound working in all apps? |
| davo | brycec: no problem at all. i see on http://www.real.com/linux/ there's a link for the .bin file. would that be worth a try? |
| Skapare | gcc-g++-4.1.2.tar.bz2 is not in gentoo? |
| davo | or is realplayer still bloated with junk? |
| Skapare | davo: everything gui is bloated |
