hello,
i used the amd64 2006.0 universal install with genkernel. can't believe
i actually got grub installed! i'm coming from slack and lilo. hardware
is a hp compaq nx 6125 turion64, ati chipset, laptop. there were a
couple of problems,
1. when i tried to emerge pcmcia-cs there was a problem with the
genkernel, something about 'in kernel ...'
2. acpi seems to be flakey. hasn't froze yet though. the laptop seems
slow. cpuinfo in /proc says 797 mhz? maybe it's throttled for battery
when it's on ac power? it's a turion ml-37, 2ghz!
3. really not getting this emerge thing. installing precompiled packages
for amd64. updated emerge to look in /mnt/cdrom as per install
instructions (networkless) did 'emerge alsa-lib' something happened for
a long time. it looked like it installed alsa-utils as well but i get
nothing for commands 'alsamixer' 'alsasetup' no asound dir in /dev???
after that i'm reluctant to go near anything related to X11.
thanks.
