I put gxineplugin.a, gxineplugin.la, and gxineplugin.so into my .mozilla/plugins directory. The permissions are right, but I still can't see streaming video and some of the tv stations. Nothing in the forums or internet have helped so far.... has anyone else had this problem?

Hi, this is sort of a WinXP question, but I trust Linux tech support more

I have been using gentoo for about a year now and, though I support all the ideals of GNU and the free software community whole-heartedly, I don't think Linux is ready to be a desktop OS yet. I think in time it will prove that it is better than anything M$ puts out in any market, but for the time being...most i386 people use Windows XP.

My question: I have a WinXP install and a gentoo install. I have lilo on the MBR but I want the MBR to be the way it was before linux (i.e. just boots windows). How do I uninstall lilo? I tried lilo -u /dev/hda but then when I rebooted I got "Error loading operating system." I have no problem booting into Windows from lilo so nothing is wrong with the installation...what do I have to do to my MBR!?

Thanks and good luck GNU guys.

Well went to upgrade my sisters 1.0PR to 1.0, uninstalled 1.0PR because the internal upgrade feature didnt work (failed to download)

while going to install 1.0 it complained a DLL didnt exist, strange, it works on default win2k installs and did before, same happened with the 1.0PR installer too so i think her PCs broken a bit, its windows 2000 after all **

so i got the dll done, and then they both crash with "cross platform com: -322 INIT_STUB_ERROR"

anybody give me a hand getting it back installed? its going to be all my fault for attempting to keep her secure lol, ideas, sugestions, anything that might help is welcome!



** (yeh whatever she needs windows i cant be arsed maintaining and setting up linux to run publisher, and theres no way to use shockwave, windows is quicker and easier in this case)


edit: it was nspr4.dll

I've been a little forgetful and quite out of the loop of the actual installation procedures lately.

I need to reinstall Windows XP as the secondary OS on the PC alongside my Gentoo. Unfortunately this will destroy the LILO bootloader which I've been using all these years (and I would prefer to keep using it instead of GRUB).

Now the thing is: I totally forgot how to recover LILO after that. I know it involved booting a Linux Boot-CD (any? Will a Knoppix do? Or Gentoo-only?), then chrooting some system directories and lastly running /sbin/lilo once to write the loader back where it belongs.

But I'd really like line-by-line instructions here to refresh my memory. Please help me find them.

J'ai r?cemment test? le live CD Mandrake Move. Pour ceux qui ne sont pas au courant des releases de mandrake, il s'agit d'un Live CD ? la mani?re d'une knoppix ou de ses d?riv?s.

C'?tait la premi?re fois que je testais ce genre de CD o? il n'y ? rien besoin d'installer et j'ai trouv? cela vraiment g?nial. Je trouve que c'est une solution id?ale pour faire d?couvrir linux autour de nous et en plus de cela, ?a peut ?tre vraiment pratique si on a besoin d'utiliser linux sur une machine ? l'occasion.

Donc, bon, j'ai trouv? la mandkrake move tr?s bien sur le d?but. Mais au bout d'un quart d'heure de jeu avec, je me suis dit que les logiciels install?s sur ce CD ne me convenaint pas, et que ce n'?tais pas assez joli (enfin, ca c'est tr?s subjectif, mais bon )

Par d?faut, ca boot sous kde, avec totem comme player et openoffice comme suite de travail. Je me suis dit que j'aimerai bien avoir un CD de ce genre mais avec mes applis pr?f?r?s ? moi et tout configur? comme j'en ai envie (sans KDE... ou alors pas configur? comme cela).
De plus, je me suis dit qu'un syst?me bas? sur gentoo, je trouverai ?a plus ? mon gout... Parce que je m'y retrouverai mieux dans les fichiers de configs... Bref, je me suis lanc? dans l'?tude de livecd-ng, un ensemble de scripts disponible dans portage, qui permettent de fabriquer son propre live cd bas? sur gentoo.

En fait, je vous ai racont? ma vie pour savoir un peu si parmi vous, vous aviez test? les live cd existants (knoppix, knoppix-mib, morphix, mandrake-move, etc...) et si certains vous avez satisfait.
Je serai aussi tr?s curieux de savoir si vous aviez test? les scripts livecd-ng pour cr?er une gentoo live et si vous aviez rencontr? des difficult?s particuli?re. Voil?, voil?...

Caros utilizadores veio-me ha cabe?a uma ideia que certamente ira ser do agrado de todos.
A cria??o de um subforum para submeter tutoriais ou howto's sobre gentoo ou *nix de um modo geral.
O que acham ?

Hi guys,

Just got my Gentoo system up and running.. it's sweet and a fabulous piece of work - I MUST THANK THE DEVELOPERS !

I'm used to deb and rpm package handling - and I often use a function that shows me the list of files belonging to a certain package. with rpm I would do rpm -ql <packagename>.

How do I do this with portage? It must know, since it can unemerge a package.
