Edit the file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and add the the following line

Code: Select all

DocumentRoot "YourDirectoryHere"
Also make sure the directory has appropriate permissions, then restart apache.

Why is Wine 900MB? Do you have your windows program in there as well? You can create a new filesystem manually and mount it to wherever. I would suggest you create a directory inside /mnt called winprogs or something, mount a new filesystem to it, and move your Windows programs to that directory. Ex...

404 just means that the file requested doesn't exist. In your case it's the default web page. First be sure to do an etc-update and restart apache. Then check /var/www/localhost/htdocs/ for your page. If you don't have and index.html file in there or have autoindex turned on for / then the server wi...

Dude, you really need to search before you ask. I mean there is a post just a few threads down asking the same thing. . .

Just emerge bittorrent or any other bittorrent program, then run it as you would in any other OS.

Just a question. Did you install all the MythTV plugins? Although true that the main purpose of the app is to be a PVR it has expanded far beyond that. The newly released 0.20 looks rather nice. Also I don't see it as processor intesive. In fact it uses just about the same CPU power as mplayer would...

As to the old question of why you lost network access inside your chroot; you need to copy your /etc/resolv.conf from your host computer to your mounted rootfs. Plust you should also mount you dev and proc filesystems inside your mounted chroot. You will then have your network so long as your host h...

gcc4 question (I know it won't compile kernel)

On the main page it says that we shouldn't upgrade to gcc4 as it won't compile the kernel or alsa. My question is will it cause any other problems? Even on my main system I have both gcc-4.1.1 and gcc-3.4.6 installed. I switch to the old gcc when I come accross a package that doesn't compile correct...

Did you resolve this? If emerge --sync doesn't work, you could try to use a protage snapshot instead (see install handbook). What did you do that broke emerge? I'm not judging (believe me I broke things more than I can count), I just need some background information before I can give a solid solution.

Xorg 7 and xbox

I know this isn't really a gentoox bug, but it affects it. . . Has anyone tried syncing lately? Xorg 7 has went stable for x86, including the xbox. However, the xbox video driver patch hasn't made it over (I learned that the hard way). Does anyone know how to get this working on th xbox? In the mean...

Update: I just updated everything again and a new baselayout was available. Aparrently that fixed the problem becase it can now connect just fine. . . Oh, that was on Gentoo-Xbox, but I'm sure the same will be true for GentooX. Now if only I can figure out why the alsa driver won't detect the audio ...
