[gentoo-user] *SOLVED* App/plugin to play CD?
Installing the XMMS plugin is the first step. There are two ways to get XMMS to work... 1) From L or Play File In XMMS L (or select Play file from the menu) Navigate to /dev/cdrom (or whatever device name your CD has) Click on Play. Nothing happens, but don't worry... Click on right-pointing triangle (2nd from the left along the bottom) ...and it finally plays. 2) From CTRL-C or Play AudioCD In XMMS CTRL-C or (or select Play AudioCD from the menu) Click on right-pointing triangle (2nd from the left along the bottom) Menu opens up. It's already at /dev and the selection cdrom Click on Play. Nothing happens, but don't worry... Click on right-pointing triangle (2nd from the left along the bottom) ...and it finally plays.

[gentoo-user] using xscreensaver hacks in gnome-screensaver (gnome 2.14)
Hi All, For a while I was looking for how to get gnome-screensaver (gnome-2.14) to use xscreensaver hacks. Well, I never found out anything, so I wrote this script to convert the xscreensaver xml files to gnome-screensaver .desktop files. Just run it like this: $ xs2gs.pl /path/to/xscreensaver-files/ tmp/ then when you're happy with all the files in /tmp, copy them to /path/to/gnome-screensaver-files/ That's usually /usr/share/xscreensaver/config/ for the xscreensaver hacks, and /usr/share/gnome-screensaver/themes/ for the gnome-screensaver files. If your favourite hack doesn't work, let me know and I may get around to working on it :) save this as xs2gs.pl enjoy :) -- Iain Buchanan iaindb at netspace dot net dot au You can get much further with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone. -- Al Capone [Also attributed to Johnny Carson.

Until there, no real problem, but gnome enviroment sounds just don't work, if I change multimedia for alsa none of the other programs work and gnome sound events sound shuttering.

Thanks, Tito Hello, I don't know if I missed a previous message, but you give no clue as to what hardware you have. It seems you have no sound card installed. Either you did not compile the appropriate module, or it is not getting loaded. You should load the module for you card manualy (e.g. modprobe your_sound_module), chechk that it works then add it in /etc/modules.autoload.d/your kernel.

[gentoo-user] OpenOffice with KDE icons (ooo-kde)
Hi All, Until recently ( a couple of stable versions ago) I used to have ooo-kde in my USE flags, which emerged OOo with the nicer (me thinks) Ximian style icons. Well, ooo-kde is now deprecated. I removed it and ever since OOo is launched with the uglier menu icons. That's despite me having kde, qt, -gnome, -gtk in my flags. Why is this happening? How can I compile it to recognise the KDE/Ximian looks? Bear in mind that it takes me than 23 hours to emerge it on this slow machine of mine and I would rather not have to experiment any more - I mean, I am wearing the CPU out with this problem! Is it an env problem? I am really lost with this because I do not understand how OOo links into the DE. PS. Yes, on this slow machine the binary is significantly slower, so I am mostly interested on solutions applicable to emerging from source. -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Either you are not buildilng what you think you are, or are not copying it to where you think you are, or are not booting from what you think you are. But you keep trying to convince everyone that you did not make a mistake, and are not providing enough detailed information for them (or us, I remember the previous thread here on this issue) to either tell you where you made your mistake, or mentally get past the likelihood that you made a mistake and consider other options. I asked you for dmesg output on your previous thread here. You did not respond. Daniel asked you to attach dmesg output on your bug report. You did not. So, again, I will try to help you... 1. If not already done, configure your kernel General Setup - Kernel .config supprt and the sub-option Enable access to .config through /proc/config.gz. 2. If necessary, rebuild and re-install the 2.6.16 kernel. 3. Reboot from the 2.6.16 kernel, and run zdiff /proc/config.gz /usr/src/linux/.config. If this produces _any_ output, you are not booting from the new kernel.

Re: [gentoo-user] QTrouble: static libraries?
Hi Richard,
on Saturday, 2006-05-13 at 10:29:53, you wrote:
Well the building of static libraries is on a per package basis, so I
guess your fastest option here is to copy the qt ebuild to your
overlay directory and modify it to make a static library. You could
also file a bug report on bugzilla requesting the change for qt, if
there isn't already an existing report for this.
OK, I'll try the local ebuild first.
However, my guess is that you are on the wrong track. It really
sounds like the DISPLAY environment variable is not set correctly, or
possibly the program is modifying it's own environment for some
reasonmaybe an strace of the program would reveal more.
Well, other X programs work just fine from the same ssh session, so it
can't be the environment. The program doesn't modify anything in it
either, I checked that much. But the strace I hadn't tried yet---here's
the halfway interesting bit:
| access(/usr/lib/qt3//plugins, F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
| access(/root/.qt, F_OK) = 0
| lstat64(/root/.qt, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
| brk(0x868a000) = 0x868a000
| access(/etc/X11//qtrc, F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
| access(/root/.qt/qtrc, F_OK) = 0
| [trying to read empty qtrc]
| munmap(0x4000, 4096)= 0
| fcntl64(3, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_UNLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=0, len=0},
0xbf9dbe60) = 0
| close(3)= 0
| write(2, usrmgr: cannot connect to X serv..., 35usrmgr: cannot connect to X
server ) = 35
It doesn't matter if the plugins dir ot /root/.qt/qtrc is there or not.
I can even put the old server's /etc/X11/qtrc in place, no difference.
I'll play with strace some more, looks like the program used some call
that's not traced by default because it's not even trying to read
$DISPLAY; the error seems to be something generic.
cheers!

Just an FYI, you won't see the environment access with strace. Strace
works on system calls, and since reading or writing the environment
doesn't involve a call to the kernel, you won't see that there. You
can see the environment that the program is called with if you add the
-v option to strace however.
BUT, you should see at least an attempt to connect() to something. I
mean, how can it claim that it cannot connect to an X server without
even trying??? :-) For example, when running xclock locally, I see
these:
socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = 3
...
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path=/tmp/.X11-unix/X0}, 19) = 0
When running over an ssh connection, I have:
socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 3
setsockopt(3, SOL_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, [1], 4) = 0
...
setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_KEEPALIVE, [1], 4) = 0
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(6010),
sin_addr=inet_addr(127.0.0.1)}, 16) = 0
You should see something similar.

Normally it is for updating an older kernel source tree to the current one. You probably don't have to mess with that though. If you have merged any 2.6.16 sources, gentoo, suspend2, anything...you should have linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2 in your distfiles directory. That is the plain vanilla sources from kernel.org.

[gentoo-user] 1366x768 HDTV
Hello, I'm trying to get the SVGA input on a HDTV to work with my gentoo system. The monitor manual says it works with 1366x768.

I'm running KDE (3.4.3) and Xorg-x11 6.8.2-r7 It also has a HDMI interface, so I guess I could get the digital cable for the FX-5200 to HDMI and use the digital capabilities, if anyone thinks this is a better idea?

to run at 2048x1536 when editing large digital photos. 2048x1536 is OK
as long as you don't have large expanses of white. 36 hz refresh can be
murder on the eyes for normal web surfing. I have multiple xorg files

The command x translates to the default...
startx -- -nolisten tcp -nosilk -config xorg.conf
The command x 2048 translates to...
startx -- -nolisten tcp -nosilk -config 2048xorg.conf
The command x 800 translates to...
startx -- -nolisten tcp -nosilk -config 800xorg.conf
etc, etc. I used to have several more before I discovered xrandr. Now
I use xrandr when I want to watch a small-screen streaming video blown
up to near fullscreen. Lower resolution (via xrandr or modeline) gives
me the benfits of rescaling without killing the cpu. Think of it as a
backdoor method to hardware rescaling without exotic drivers.
Is there anything similar to SIGWINCH after xrandr changes screen
size? My launch panel (pypanel) disappears off the bottom of the screen
when I use xrandr to go from 1280x1024 to 512x384.
