ok I have many questions this time. I set this variable before but for |
2 |
get where it was. There is something that emerge can to to |
3 |
automatically write over existing configuration files. And when I first |
4 |
installed gentoo I set it to do that, not knowing how annoying it could |
5 |
be. Now I hope someone can help me in changing that back, as when I ran |
6 |
emerge world a lot of settings were deleted, some of which have been |
7 |
easy to change, and some not. |

|
9 |
Examples include I had to change my xdm from "xdm" to "gdm" and set the |
10 |
defalut session to gnome. Another which I am having trouble with is |
11 |
sound. Apparently the modules I had auto-loading before do not now do |
12 |
the same thing. the two most important are snd and snd-powermac. Which |
13 |
arises the question does anyone have ALSA or OSS working with gentoo |
14 |
with a gentoo kernel? I used to have sound working through OSS but I am |
15 |
not sure whether I changed the vanilla kernel I was using to the gentoo |
16 |
kernel before I stopped listening to music or not. Currently all I have |
17 |
been able to get working for gnome output is ESD ( I am not Surprised), |
18 |
though I don't ever remember installing esound. So maybe it was |
19 |
installed by emerging gnome or something like that. |

Any help would be very much appreciated. |
