Use the split ebuilds to merge just what you need. It's a little confusing because the split and monolithic ebuilds are all in the same category, kde-base. How does the removal of such modules occur if one uses the split ebuilds, surely it becomes that much more difficult?

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: which video card for dell2005fpw
Michael,Any NVIDIA card is a home run as far as Linux drivers go. It will even allow you to run some advanced graphical applications if you chose. If you're looking for the most for the money, I'd either try a 6600GT or the brand new 7200, which may not be released on the market yet, I'd check on that first. The 6600GT will generally run betweeb 115-130 and the 7200 is priced starting at 99.00. You should note that the 6600GT will have much better performance because of it's fast memory and the fact that it does not use TurboCache. That uses a portion of your system RAM as video memory and really clogs things up. You can go cheaper than the 100 dollar mark, but I really wouldn't recommend it.

[gentoo-user] OT - Something funky with nautilus
Something funky is going on with my nautilus. In gconf-editor for nautilus, I have the always_use_browser checkbox checked, but my nautilus window is not showing browser mode. I prefer to have the address bar. Nautilus froze up and I issued a killall for it, and when it reloaded it was like this. I'm using nautilus 2.12.2. Any hints? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[snip] Would anyone recommend which is the best method for setup, start with Gentoo or Windows? it doesn't matter, IMHO, so long as you know that windows will overwrite your grub (or lilo) mbr, in favour of its own. From there you have two choices: 1. use the windows to chain-boot linux (possible, but I don't know what for :) 2. re-install grub with your live-cd (which you still have from you recent gentoo install) Hence you can see that it may be easier to install windows first, so you don't have to do grub twice. I also want to setup a common partition for data storage which both can access. Again, can anyone recommend a setup? I use an ntfs (for windows) partition, various ext2/3 partitions for linux, and a fat32 partition to share between the two (video files, music, etc) HTH, -- Iain Buchanan iain at netspace dot net dot au Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so. -- The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

BTW, this is a DeskJet 612C using the hpijs driver. What I expect is happening is that the text file has only linefeeds (\n or ASCII 0x0a) instead of carriage return/linefeed (\r\n or ASCII 0x0d 0x0a) so the head is never getting the command to go back to the start of the line and the line length overflows. This is one reason why raw printing can be a problem. What you really want is a queue that merely replaces \n with \r\n instead of a true raw queue. CUPS does not seem to provide this, instead preferring to convert to postscript and then to raster. Personally I don't see this as a problem, but your needs are probably different than mine.
