[gentoo-user] (Slightly OT) A question about Wikis (maybe)
I'm considering a project, and am keen not to end up re-inventing the wheel. I'm looking to use collaborative techniques to put together a 'knowledge base'... I require: * Collaborative editing to grow the number of 'records' held. * For the 'records' (pages) to be of a standard form - so that data of a similar 'type' can be processed (summarised and filtered) based upon any attribute (field). The 'records' - however need to be flexible - in the sense that a field might be a sequence of records (recursively) in a table... The 'type' of a particular record will be known, and should have a common appearance and layout that can be edited independent of the data. It must be possible to extend the type of records after data has been collected... as the system evolves... but these fundamental changes need only be possible for an administrator. * Support for a hierarchy of users - such that only the submitter/members of senior groups can view new data until it is approved by a member of a senior group. * Support for public comment discussion on every page - a threaded forum approach would be fine. * (Ideally - not sure how this would be used) Support to drag in data from third-party sites either using RSS or using web-services. * Email notification of changes to pages where an interest is registered. * Full version management. I've briefly looked at Twiki and Xwiki (which show some promise - but I'm not sure they're up to the job.) I'm familiar with Ruby on Rails - though I suspect that it is too low-level for my purposes. I would like to avoid focusing on the implementation details as much as possible and focus on the design of the collaborative system using the highest-level RAD approach I available today. Have others addressed a similar problem (using gentoo)?

[gentoo-user] openoffice 3.0 problem
Yesterday I saw that openoffice 3.0 was unmasked for amd64 so I built and installed it. It seemed to work fine on a couple test documents that I opened, but then I ran into a problem with the one which has my household expense spreadsheets. I opened it and the data on one of the sheets was there for sure, but there was no tab bar for moving between the sheets. I saved a copy of that spreadsheet into a new file to see if a natively-stored file will have the same problem. It did. I looked to see if there was an option to turn on the sheet tab bar, but I didn't find any. So I rebuilt 2.4.1 and tested it on the spreadsheed which I saved with OOo 3.0. It also didn't show the tab bar at the bottom! When I opened my original with 2.4.1, though, it appears fine. Has anyone else encountered this type of problem? -- -M There are 10 kinds of people in this world: Those who can count in binary and those who cannot.

Yes, I'd think for example in terms of the difference between emerge foo and emerge =foo-1.2.3. AFAICT, python-updater does the latter by default, but with the -i option it is given a permission to do the former within a slot. Since most packages only have a single slot, the within a slot becomes irrelevant for them. I understand that slots can be used to install different versions of an app but not sure how that relates to python-updater. Sorry if I lead you too much into this slot territory. The slots are more of a red herring here, or just a small, distracting detail. For most packages slots won't matter. But there are the few, like qt, for which it is important to keep within a slot. Therefore it is nice that helpful scripts, like python-updater, try to provide automagic support for the slotting related stuff where it is needed. Still, python-updater -i is not guaranteed to fix your original problem, it was just a suggestion. The problem might not even lay with libxml2, but one of its dependencies, their dependencies, or dependencies of python itself. If you haven't already tried it, then revdep-rebuild from the gentoolkit package is your other friend. You might need try running it first and then retry with the python-updater. -- Arttu V.

Thunderbird spends a lot of time loading or whatever and squirrelmail is just slow. Would something like mutt be an improvement? Any other recommendations? Sorry, I don't quite understand your setup: Are you: a) Running a remote desktop / X over ssh type scenario where you run Thunderbird from a server on your client over a slow internet connection? If so, then certainly using a text-based client like Mutt will help. b) Reading mail that is stored remotedly on a local computer? via IMAP? In this case I cannot say, not having used Thunderbird or squirrelmail. This really depends on how efficiently the individual clients are coded, and the best way to find out is to just try them out and see if you get an improvement. Theoretically the limit imposed on the mail clients by your slow internet connection should be the same. c) doing something else completely? Can you explain what you mean by Thunderbird loading? Loading what? The program itself? Or a particular e-mail? As it stands, your e-mail really doesn't give us much information about what your setup is and what you would like to improve. One thing that I just thought of: often it maybe faster (if you have the access) to ssh into the mail server and run mutt there compared to using IMAP. Especially with e-mails with attached pictures and HTML mark-up: if you parse those on the server with lynx and send only the text through the ssh, it will often be faster than downloading the entire mail and parsing it locally.

[gentoo-user] xinerama USE-flag needed for KDE 4.1 and xrandr?
Hi everybody, I would like to setup a dual-head desktop using X.org 7.4 and KDE 4.1.2. I successfully achieved to configure my dual-head setup using xrandr. Basically it looks like this: xrandr --output VGA-0 --auto --left-of LVDS The VGA-0 screen's resolution is 1680x1050, the notebook-display is 1400x1050. As said before this works fine but KDE 4.1.2 treats the two screens as one single screen so the panel is centered in the middle of the overall-desktop and windows maximize over both screens. (See screenshot http://koesterreich.de/gentoo/screenshots/big-desktop.png) The desired behavior is that the panel is just on one screen (optionally more panels on the second) and the windows only maximize on the screen they are currently located. Do I have to compile KDE (and maybe other packages) using the 'xinerama' USE- flag? In that case I would say this is confusing because I think that xinerama is deprecated and I would suggest to rename it to something like multi-head. If it is of interest: I have a ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 and addressed by the 'radeon' driver. Regards, Fabian signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Re: [gentoo-user] Trying KDE-4

If you want to be on the safe side do a quickpkg =x11-libs/qt-4.3.3 before. The new qt-4.4.x split ebuilds can not live alongside the non split ebuild. I ran quickpkg and emerge -C on qt-4.3.3, then emerge -upDvN world again. The block is still there, exactly the same as before. Let me quote Alan here: I main underlying reason seems to be that Qt now comes as split-ebuilds and Peter has some monolithic ones installed. It's similar to migrating KDE to split-ebuilds, but on a much smaller scale. Unfortunately there's no easy way to automate this in an ebuild, that would require several new unrelated packages replacing one big one, portage doesn't support that kind of thing. So one has to do it manually, and deal with the resulting recdep-rebuild issues as well The problem is that portage is probably not smart enough to do the upgrade from the non-split to the split ebuilds, so the world update will always run into this blocker even when qt-4.3.3 is not installed. Maybe some ebuild depends on =qt-4.3.3 so it is pulled in and another one depends on =qt-4.4.x which also gets pulled in and thus the blockers. This should be no problem in the normal case as the highest needed version would be installed. But the new split ebuilds have no relation to the old monolithic which is probably causing the problems in this case. The highest available version for monolithic is qt-4.3.3 and so it is pulled in alongside the new split ebuilds which are also needed because of a =4.4.x dependency of other programs. I remember such problems to when migrating to qt split ebuilds and simply running emerge world was not enough but I do not remember the exact procedure which solved this. There were some issues with PyQt4 but I am not sure if this was related. One thing I would give a try is to give portage a hand and emerge some of the qt split ebuilds with the oneshot option. In your case the qt split ebuilds which are blocked: x11-libs/qt-script-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-dbus-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-qt3support-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-sql-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-gui-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-svg-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-test-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-core-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-webkit-4.4.2, x11-libs/qt-opengl-4.4.2 and then see if portage will be able to continue with the world update. I've started building a new system from scratch on another disk, and I'm now about ready to start installing KDE on it. Maybe a clean start is what I need. I think this could be solved without a reinstall but it is up to you. Regards, Daniel
