|
|
Am i the only one?
No success with the search makes me questioning this:
1. I cannot install all of kde with the packages delivered by cd (Version 2005.0, athlon-xp)
I can do
emerge -k kdebase
but
emerge -k kdemultimedia
for example tries to download the glib-1.2.10. O.K. I can do this with another gentoo on another partition, but shouldn't a stage 3 installation and the package cd run without any online connection? I reinstalled 2005.0 without adding any USE-Flags as recommended at some places here but this didn't help
2. Using kdm as Displaymanager shows no session, only failsafe is chooseable. Changing the entry DISPLAYMAMAGER in /etc/rc.conf from kdm to gdm shows gdm after boot with all possible x-session (gnome and kde)
3. Just another question/ proposal:
Wouldn't it be useful to add the documentations about installing X, KDE and Gnome to the handbook? |

1. you would think (did you change the portage snapshot by emerge sync or something?)
If you didnt change portage in anyway I would report that as a bug.
2. May need to manually adust that -- may have something to do with apparant dependencies not matching right on the cd.
In other words this maybe #1's fault.
3. I would think so. Report that as a bug. (especially if disk has those packages those documents should be available, probably alsa, udev would fit also) _________________ The solutions are easy. Its finding them that is hard. |

With some further try, I found my first problem already posted in the bug list.
Here is what worked with me:
- leaving the portage-snapshot distributed from cd
- downloading a "glib-1.2.10.tar.gz" from somewhere and copying it to the distfiles-directory
makes
emerge -k kde
running without further complains.
Next release, next chance i quess.... |
