How to Install Skype in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx

InsightsBy purehateMay 4, 20102 Comments

I just got around to downloading The new LTS release from Ubuntu which is 10.04. I have to admit as a long time Gentoo Linux user I am very impressed with the speed of 10.04. There are some annoying bugs but I am working on sorting those out and I will try to post some…

Gentoo: One of the files in /etc/{conf.d,init.d} or /etc/rc.conf has a modification time in the future

InsightsBy purehateJanuary 10, 20102 Comments

This is the most annoying error and for some reason I get it all the time when I reboot my Gentoo servers. I have no idea why since I always execute a proper reboot and my times are all synchronized with a time server. Its a small fix and this will be a short article…

My Linux distribution of choice is CentOS so that is where I typically spend time. Recently though I have been working for a project that runs on a Gentoo Linux server. So far I really like Gentoo though there are some things that I am used to that are totally different. One minor issues I…

Failed to emerge dev-python/beautifulsoup-3.1.0.1-r1

InsightsBy purehateDecember 22, 2009Leave a comment

This morning I decided to make the big switch to Python 3.0 on my Gentoo Laptop. I have been avoiding it since there are some changes to 3.0 that are not backwards compatible with scripts and tool written in 2.6. The emerge of Python 3.0 went fine but I had some issues with beauitfulsoup which…

ErrorsBy alexNovember 24, 20092 Comments

I started an install of Gentoo Linux this morning on a desktop at my house so I could test some browser stuff that purehate was seeing via his Gentoo laptop. I don’t think I have ever installed Gentoo but its possible a couple years back I installed it in the same scenario. Anyway I decided…

Gnome has just upgraded their version and there is a bug which breaks the menu. This affects anyone who is migrating from any previous versions of gnome to 2.26.

Add Color to Dispatch-Conf

InsightsBy purehateNovember 13, 2009Leave a comment

When updating Portage on a Gentoo system you generally have to update all the config files after wards. The default way to do this is to use etc-update. There is however a better way and that is to use dispatch-conf. One of the reasons I prefer it is that it makes a backup of the…

Using Equery to Find What Package a File Belongs To

InsightsBy purehateNovember 12, 20091 Comment

I use Gentoo Linux and I love it however the Portage package manager can be confusing sometimes with all the USE flags and other variables which can be set.
