How do I go about this?

I've emerged net-misc/vtun, and it is not working properly, it emerges successfully, yet there is no in the /dev/net/ directory. After emerging, it says that "You have to compile this into the kernal" or something to that nature. I'm trying to use Hamachi, so I need this to use it. Anyone ...

Just download Sparkle and boot it, it will recover your filesystem since you decided to improperly shut it down.

Sparkle.

Ok, it worked. Added more space, and it's good.

afaik e: or f: installs do not format drives, only the native install does see: http://forums.shallax.com/viewtopic.php?t=3669&highlight=sbin+native you should be able to use rescutoox to move your install, or even copy rootfs (and swap?) to f: and edit your linuxboot.cfg properly Oh ok, I was ...

I did an E: install and now I would like to get some more space. I did not choose F: because it formats that partition, and I have other apps there. Is the switch as simple as moving rootfs and swap over to F (from the FTP tutorial) and editing my linuxboot.cfg?

I was using port 0, that's what was wrong.

setxkbmap se should work.

Tried like 3 times with different passwords and nothing worked. TightVNC viewer said that it was wrong.

Edit: I fixed it, it was port 5901.

How do you do that? I am also having the same problem.

Probably emerge --xterm

Now this answered my question!

What file do I edit to restore the VNC server password?

Ok, now that I got this working, when ever I click terminal, it doesn't do anything. What's wrong there? At least I can SSH in and everything.

Also, I read in the manual something about VNC, how do I get that started?

Oh, I'm surprised the Xbox can handle Ventrilo server!

Ok I just SSH'd in and filled it out. X started, I logged in, and the XFCE logo showed up. Looks goodm, XFCE is MUCH faster than KDE! Thanks for your help.

open a console and type

tokde
or
toxfce

Just did that, and now it X Server says "Problem Parsing the config file" and "unexpected KDE." Sounds pretty broken!
