Hello |
7 |
I installed gentoo linux a few days ago, i don't know if it's the right |
8 |
list to post this report, but we'll see. ;) |
9 |
|
10 |
|
11 |
The install runned fine. |
12 |
For Information, I'm using a Asus A7V266-E mainboard (KT266A chipset) |
13 |
with fr keyboard. |
14 |
|
15 |
Here's what I noted : |
16 |
|
17 |
KDM |
18 |
kdm shows users like root, www & co, but not the normal user. I guess |
19 |
there is an inversion somewhere |
20 |
|
21 |
XSANE |
22 |
latest xsane is 0.84. latest in gentoo is 0.77, quite old. Is there a |
23 |
particular reason for keeping an old version? |
24 |
|
25 |
BASESYSTEM |
26 |
basesystem wants me to install isapnptools, but i haven't used a isa |
27 |
cards for year! i don't even have an isa slot! i think hotplug would be |
28 |
a much better thing to have in core system than isapnptools.. how to |
29 |
tell emerge i don't want it with update (without having to do it at each |
30 |
emerge rsync) ? |

EURO SIGN |
57 |
Can't have it in kde (even with iso8859-15 character set selected), and |
58 |
don't have it everywhere in gnome apps. For example in evolution, i have |
59 |
it in to, cc, and subject fields, but not in the message window. I guess |
60 |
i'm missing something somewhere.. but.. where? :) |
61 |
|
62 |
LANGUAGE |
63 |
Is there any way to have non-english language in other apps than kde |
64 |
itself? |

REALPLAYER |
67 |
There are some realplayer 9 (aka RealOne) beta floating around real.com |
68 |
site, and it works well. |
69 |
|
70 |
EBUILDS |
71 |
How do we find the list (and description?) of packages that can be |
72 |
installed? I'm talking of something equivalent to rpmdrake for example |
73 |
|
74 |
RPM |
75 |
rpm is present so i guess it's supported.. but why using rpm 3.0.6 as |
76 |
4.0.3 is the latest version? |
77 |
|
78 |
ALSA & OSS EMULATION |
79 |
I have a SB Live! card (emu10k1) and alsa. When using oss application i |
80 |
have noise at the start of the play, for about one second, then it plays |
81 |
fine.. But it's really annoying since i have that at each song change in |
82 |
xmms. I tried aalsa plugin, but the sound is strange (stretched or |
83 |
something..) So if anyone has an idea.. (my on-board sound chips are |
84 |
disabled in the bios) |
85 |
|
86 |
EVOLUTION & SPELLCHECKING |
87 |
I guess i need aspell (or other?) and aspell-fr for spellchecking in |
88 |
french, but there's only de.. |
