Long time, no see! What's been going on lately? Well, here goes.....
I finally got my gentoo installation up and going on my Pentium 200MHz computer. I had openbox, apache, xmame, rox, openoffice, etc. running on my machine. I even had a little blogging tool called blosxom running on it as well.
Then a lot of changes occurred. First we moved into a new apartment. Then I got a newer computer. The computer I got was a K6-2 with 64MB of ram. I got it from a friend after I built another computer for her. The mobo didn't recognize the hard drive I had in my old computer (A Western Digital drive,) so I had to reinstall everything. So far I got Windows 2000 running on that machine, and now I'm getting Gentoo put back on. I have problems compiling software on this machine, though. I tried compiling the kernel with lower optimization settings, but that didn't work. so I tried to compile the latest version of GCC, to no avail. When I tried to update gcc, the computer flopped on compiling ncurses (it's a portage thing.) I thought about compiling this manually, possibly using the ebuild.sh script.
I also have an ATI TV Wonder USB edition, which I would like to get to run with Linux, but as of yet there are no drivers for it. Looks like I'll have to get that working myself. No problem with that.
