[gentoo-user] global game jam and unity web play on gentoo
Hello Guys! This weekend I participated on global game jam and had real fun making a game there! Unfortunately, the game I made uses Unity Web Player to be made available through the web without installing. Does anyone here knows how to install it on gentoo? I have some friends that only have gentoo, and really wanted them to be able to play my game.. Érico V. Porto
[gentoo-user] TUSB3410 on 3.0.6 kernel
Hello, I would like to ask about the kernel 3.0.6. I can't load the ti_usb_3410_5052.ko.

Stop. make: *** [_modinst_post] Error 2 Has anyone tried it in the 3.0.6 kernel?

Re: [gentoo-user] TUSB3410 on 3.0.6 kernel
so now the module is loadable through modprobe, it all makes with no errors. It's probably out of this topic, but shouldn't I see a ttyUSB or something like that in my /dev/ ? I tried using modprobe ti_usb_3410_5052 product=0451 vendor f432 I just wanted to read the virtual usb serial out of a Texas launchpad board. This board uses the TUSB3410 chip. I'm asking about this in the texas forums too, just was surprised to see so many fast answers. Érico V.

Re: [gentoo-user] TUSB3410 on 3.0.6 kernel
oh no, I don't think it is a bug. I mean, this is suposed to be open using some tool named mspdebug of some sorta: http://hackaday.com/2010/08/11/how-to-launchpad-programming-with-linux/ But I know this chip is a usb to serial adapter, only the product Id is exchanged to be a Development Tool. To change the vendor and product id, I found a how-to here : http://www.brimson.com/downloads/ti_usb_multitech_release_notes-1.1.txt It doesn't seem to do nothing, but maybe I have to write some code on the msp before. I haven't used this board much, but it is the only thing I have to test now - I need to interface with a gps chip, but I have no serials available, so later I plan to use this chip.

[gentoo-user] gentoo forgets DATE adjust
When I was installing my system I typed the date and hour wrong , and didn't noticed, and as far my computer knows, today is tomorrow, two hours wrong... I thought it was ok to change later, but actually, I can't. If I type the date command to change time, it changes ok, but when I boot, my system forgets it, and it's tomorrow again..

What kind of computer are you looking for? If you are not a gamer but do like to watch high res videos, go for a fanless video board.

Install Ubuntu. It's easy to use, and doesn't need to be configured so much. It's also friendly for beginners and has lots of references on the web if something break.

[gentoo-user] sdhc card on eeepc701 running gentoo
Hello, I'm having lots of hardware error current when trying to use a sdhc card (transcend 16GB) on my eeepc701. I have never used any card on gentoo before, but I have used with success previously in Ubuntu. Is there some know bug? Also, only sometimes I get a device at /dev/sdb and couldn't get any /dev/sdb1 to show, but I do see it using fdisk /dev/sdb and them pressing p. Érico V. Porto
Re: [gentoo-user] sdhc card on eeepc701 running gentoo
it is a 16GB class 10 Transcend, but the eeepc uses a usb card reader inside of it - no mmc I think. Actually, the first thing I tried to do with it was to format to ext2, and then the formating proccess frozed in the middle of it.. I've tried to load it in a windows pc after but couldn't read, and when I tried to format, everything frozed - but it was a public computer, so I don't know if it ever had a working card reader. I've booted ubuntu in the eeepc now, and the card is shown in /dev/sdc1, but I can't edit it using disk utility - it gives me error calling fsync(2), on:/dev/sdc: input/output error. But on ubuntu I don't see no dmesg error msgs like the ones I see on gentoo just by plugin it on the port. Is there any disk error checking utility in gentoo or ubuntu? Érico V.

Re: [gentoo-user] sdhc card on eeepc701 running gentoo
You are correct, the internal card reader was the problem, I tried today in a Dell Vostro running ubuntu, and everything worked nice, even tried in another Dell laptop with windows, and the card was recognized as well. It seems the problem is indeed my hardware, so I'm buying a usb card reader to shove it inside the eeepc to finally gain 16GB that I'm needing to do some more interesting stuff in it. Érico V.
