For mocp, was the alsa USE flag in the flag list in the make.conf file in /etc/portage? I don't remember if I made the /mnt/endme folder, but I might've when I was doing chroot stuff to fix things. Also, you installed a LOT more than I thought you did! Awesome job and great perseverance! Not deleting the swap file might've helped... or made things slower! Who knows? Not me!
I made my Voodoo 3 work on Gentoo. You have to compile the framebuffer tdfxfb driver, not the legacy DRM one. I also compiled it in, not as a module. It should pick up your monitor's resolution automatically after it loads (on the console). I also remember it working on Debian years ago, but I had to modprobe it manually, was compiled as a module. It works with a 1920x1080 monitor for me and it detects it automatically. After that, to get X working, you need to make sure it loads the xf86-video-fbdev driver, that's what the framebuffer drivers work on. It still won't be great, though. The X11 architecture just isn't there in the modern days to work properly with framebuffer based drivers. And you can forget the original old accelerated drivers. They haven't worked for over a decade now. The tdfx kernel driver is deprecated due to being DRI1 (they were unsafe). The X11 driver also doesn't work anymore because X11 dropped support for XAA (which the userspace X driver was based on). It might be possible to get this old acceleration stuff working if you compile an old 2.xx kernel with old 8.x Mesa and some ancient version of X11. But it quickly becomes a nightmare to try and get all the dependencies working together, especially with modern compilers.
I used a 600mhz Pentium III, and I managed to watch some TH-cam videos and browse the web. I used a distro called Slitaz. Old PCs are completely usable, and I used a 2003 Gateway tablet PC as my main computer up until about 2 years ago when I got a newer Thinkpad.
I have an older ~2007 EeePC, 1.6 GHz atom PC that I installed AntiX linux on, and it plays videos just fine, it's just that modern websites are so bloated that my initial 1GB ram wasn't cutting it, even if the OS was less than 300 MB from a fresh boot, 700 MB just doesn't cut it anymore when loading TH-cam. Upgraded to 2GB which helped a lot, because swap on spinning rust isn't the best alternative. Glad you're on newer hardware now though.
I am *so* sorry for pointing out the lack of bottom bar, causing you and David to Install Gentoo™ on a P1 machine :P 1280x1024 resolution w/o video acceleration on a machine that old... I'm surprised it's still that usable.
It helped me. I wanted to run nsCDE no matter the distro on a PIII. One of the dependencies listed on their website "requires" SSE2, which PIII's don't have. I think it's Python3. When the bar was not showing up I was wondering if it was related to a unsatisfied dependancy or system requirement, even if I spotted the comment stating it was a C library issue. Now I know it should work properly. I have no idea how, but it should.
Flashbacks of me playing StarCraft using Wine Beta under Ubuntu 6.06 in a PentiumII 300MHz and 128MB of RAM back in 2006. And 32 bit processors were (and still are in most cases) very capable btw, I got an old 2005 Thinkpad with a mobile Core2Duo running Steam Streaming at 720p with a PS4 controller to work seamlessly back in 2016. Linux integrates beautifully to a set hardware as long as you know it's limits.
For voodoo you need to compile a very old version of mesa and a very old version of the kernel. Don't expect to have support for old cards but... You could try a raiser to adapt PCI to pci-e and check if a modern GPU work. For the sound card, just install a PCI to USB adapter and just use a modern one xD. For graphical interface I remember that I could setup a remote xorg server but I don't know if is posible nowadays. But you always could redirect X with ssh -Y and then be sure you have indirect rendering enabled on mesa and you can use the remote computer to render games. I think playing neverball or xmoto is doable with ssh -Y
Just found this channel and this is great. All the other retro tech channels take themselves way too seriously so this is so much more enjoyable and fun! Appreciate the catboys ^-^
the reason the image keeps dragging the CPU down is because of your Voodoo GPU, that card offloads a lot of the 2d image processing to the CPU because it doesn't have hardware TCL, which means the CPU still has to calculate which items to render each frame really inefficiently, this behaviour persists with any card that has no hardware TCL even if you get a working driver, this wasn't a problem back in the day because the desktop environments were cleverly programmed to essentially "speedhack" the clipping process, something which hasn't been necessary for over 20 years.
I like NSCDE. It's ugly, but it's got a pretty powerful interface, and it's more lightweight than most i3 rices. The way it does virtual dektops is pretty nice too, although it does take some getting used to.
Imagine, I wrote my thesis on a 486DX33 with 8MB RAM using Latex and Linux (kernel version 1.x) and had no issues. A P133 was already available but I didn't have the money for such a high-end machine. The institute had a computer room with some powerfull IBM RS/6000 workstations and 3270 terminals (if you wanted to work like in the 70th). I could have used that infrastructure, but I found it more convenient to work at home with my own slow PC than sitting in the noisy computer room in the basement without daylight. I had a very puristic fvwm2 setup with Xfree86 (not this fancy CDE/Motiv style Desktop you have). Today it is hard to imagine that you could work with such limited resources but it was possible. E.g. split your latex document in multiple files and process only the section you are currently working on, don't include images in draft version, don't start latex after each sentence / formula, ....
Windows95a was running fast on P133 with 32MB Ram, and Playing Midi, and watching Images - without any stottering - So you should better optimze your fvwm 🙂 But dont try this with Windows11 ^^ Btw: great projekt 🙂
Love these Frankenstein videos, like a pentium 133MHz with a Voodoo3? lol. My first PC that I bought with my confirmation money back in either 96 or 97 was an AMD K6 200MHz and I believe it was a 3GB HDD which was massive at the time, a Matrox 4MB 2D card (not sure if it was 2 or 4 MB to be fair). Only a little while later did I get Voodoo 1, the one you needed to connect to your 2D card :) So to see a machine that is older than that running Voodoo3 just feels wrong. But it is very interesting to see what might've been possible in Linux at the time. Alas, I was on Windows 95 back then, coming from 3.11 and DOS as a kid, and only recently moved to Linux (January), but it's been a fun journey, and these videos are inspiring (and fun, very well edited).
There is a distro that is also built from source and is lighter than Gentoo at under 100 packages. It is called KISS Linux, it is a little harder to install as the creator left the project and it's run by the community now and their instructions require you to use web archive and use their updated tarball (similar to Gentoo's stage 3) and repos. It's also a learning experience but is an interesting distro to try. It sadly only has support for 64 bit CPUs due to lack of support/popularity but there is an old fork called glasnost linux that hasn't been updated that supports i686 but since the repos are out of date it may not fetch the latest packages correctly and may even need patches to compile the programs properly so I don't know how well that will work out. Just another suggestion for you.
I never ran Linux on a Pentium 133. I re an it on a 486 DX/66 with no level 2 cache and then my next computer had a Pentium Ii 333. I think I ran Debian on the 486 and Debian and maybe later Slackware on to the Pentium Ii. I wonder if the latest Slackware would run on a Pentium II.
Some weeks ago, I installed the newest Debian 12 on my Pentium II 333 PC. So yes, Slackware should be possible as well. Apparently, the installer needs at least 512 MB of memory, and my PC has 256 MB. I did the installation in a VirtualBox VM, and moved the system to the actual PC. After booting into text mode, it only uses 23 MB. My sound card, a Sound Blaster AWE64, was properly detected, and I played some MP3s on it. I still have many things to figure out, including running a GUI.
Great stuff 😅 I'd love to see some DOSBox action under some older Linux distro, like Mandriva, with 3D acceleration this time. I bet DOSBox needs something around Pentium 3 to run demanding titles, like Duke3D on Linux.
@@WindowsG you can overclock it, it's just not done the usual way, you can try to add the missing multiplier pin(s) back onto the CPU, mess with FSB speed (87 MHz works usually, 100 MHz works sometimes), or just try different settings until you map the working multipliers, in any case do not attempt to exceed 200 MHz, the CPU becomes highly unstable under load at 200 MHz and will likely overheat quickly without major cooling upgrades at that speed.
that s on my list aswell. i got gentoo to run on a amd 686 notebook with wifi n cap. & fb support. it worx quite well. not sure if the P1 is worth all the hassel tho. maybe with using cross compilation... idk
LoL! Had to laugh hard 😂 when you compiled the Kernel on another machine. Anybody who tried to compile a Kernel on such old hardware knows, it would take you literally....ages. My guess Kernel 6.0.0 would be something like one week on that Pentium thingy?! 🎉
you missed an opportunity to use links on graphics mode using framebuffer Also, you can use genlop to query how long a package needed to compile, or how long it has been compiling
huh didnt know of genlop, thanks for the info!~ Also the Voodoo 3 2000 didnt have proper framebuffer support under gentoo (or at least i couldnt do it) so i couldnt really do that
@@WindowsG True, realised later about the framebuffer. Sucks. I saw some solutions in the replies,. but not sure if it'll be worth it for you. If you use a framebuffer able linux terminal: fbi (image viewer). fbgs (pdf viewer). Enjoy!
I run Gentoo on my mini PC, with a Ryzen 7 7840HS 8C/16T 5.1GHz and 64GB of DDR5 RAM, it's so amazing CPUs are so fast nowadays you can make a fully working Gentoo system in less than a day, like, I installed my Gentoo testing + ffmpeg + sway + a lot of packages in like 2 hours... The only thing that took a really long time was Chromium compilation at 3 hours and 16 minutes of compile time but eh, Chromium is the biggest package to build on the Gentoo repository... Apart from Chromium every package is pretty fast to compile, and note my mini PC has a laptop CPU it would be a lot faster on high end desktop CPUs, CPU designers are genius.
Looking at the ~1 in the filenames on the floppy I guess they have long filenames. Assuming you compiled it into the kernel the vfat filesystem type would probably let you use the full filenames.
You should have tried to compile the real CDE, it was open sourced at one point, there's a sourceforge page with a guide I've only really managed to get it working on OpenBSD but there is a Linux guide on there, too
I wonder if compressing into opus rather than mp3 would work. Like you could probably fit bad apple in 30kbps opus and it would sound fine ish, the real question is would libopus work on ancient pentium
LOL!! NOT DRUAGA 1 here!! LOL! I love this! 😛. Aahh Gentoo.. I know you could run Solaris x86 8 or 9 on this better but then again... do you want to? Redhat 6.2 just would have been better and much much easier. But hey, then it would not be a NOT DRUAGA 1 video! 😀
Yep!~ Thats how this install was created, nothing stops you from installing and compiling Gentoo for a different system and just carrying the HDD or an image over.
I have a 14 years old vaio laptop and also can't make native graphics works on Gentoo. As I understood, nvidia doesn't update drivers for old hardware to support modern Linux kernels. It's a pitty. That laptop is much much more powerful than Pentium from your video, but I can't run Gentoo (and other Linux at all) on it smoothly(((
reminds me my 1st PC, a pentium 120 without MMX disguised as pentium 133, on a SIS chipse like this one with 16MB fp-deo DIMM. nightmare if you run MPEG1 SOFTWARE decoding

a pata ssd and the best ram might make it ever so slightly more capable XD. still nuts for real. almost modern in some ways.

Yep!~ Thats how this install was created, nothing stops you from installing and compiling Gentoo for a different system and just carrying the HDD or an image over.
@@WindowsG Thank you
get back too us when voodoo is working
7:08 Awooo is here cute Momiji oWO
Get an electric screwdriver because they are awesome and it makes things much easier.
I'm wondering if CDE would work faster and/or consume less memory.
Yes, old computers still work with effort
I tried installing gentoo on my dual pentium 3 box and it can't find my wifi card.
Now try running doom on it
I have a 14 years old vaio laptop and also can't make native graphics works on Gentoo. As I understood, nvidia doesn't update drivers for old hardware to support modern Linux kernels. It's a pitty. That laptop is much much more powerful than Pentium from your video, but I can't run Gentoo (and other Linux at all) on it smoothly(((
I see a man of culture
Are you using mesa-amber branch?
Gentoo on a 133MHz Pentium and uwufetch.
nice.
Needs more ecatboy
Sick as hell
reminds me my 1st PC, a pentium 120 without MMX disguised as pentium 133, on a SIS chipse like this one with 16MB fp-deo DIMM. nightmare if you run MPEG1 SOFTWARE decoding
its facinating how all femboys end up in Gentoo
Voodoo 3- Is it a 3500 by chance?
