[gentoo-user] Setting the priority of the compiler
Hi, are there any options to set the compiler priority for emerge actions? I thought of something as GPP_PRIORITY=lowest in the make.conf file or something similar. Google didn't help at all..

Can you try writing a different DVD, or a different brand of media. Just write some random small files to it and try that. I've tried both the previous DVD+RW with the large 3G avi file on it and another DVD+RW (same brand) with file backups from a NTFS drive. It couldn't read them. Then I tried reading a CD, CDRW and DVD+R. No problem with any of them, despite the fact that the DVD+R had a c. 4G partition tar.gz on it. The problem seems to be with the DVD+RWs. I'm thinking one of two possibilities here: 1. (unlikely) the 3GB file is confusing things, possibly only files up to 2GB are supported. Note that DVD movies usually split things up into 1GB chunks, probably for these kinds of issues. Probably not true if it can read the 4G tar file on a DVD+R that I mention above. 2. (likely) your DVD ROM drive is not capable of reading some or all writeable media. Just because it can read a printed DVD, doesn't mean it can read a DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, or DVD-R-DL, etc... So you might try different types and different brands of media to see if you can find something it will read. I have a horrible thought that you are right.

I know I can parse the log files and I know I can build an org.conf file manually, I'm just thinking there is some neat script somewhere that I can run to generate a default(baseline) xorg.conf file?

And I use KDE, not because I find it perfect but because AFAIK it's the only DE that has two features that for me are a must: (1) Several virtual desktops, plus the possibility to switch desktops via configurable keyboard shortcuts, and (2) the possibility of setting different background images for different desktops. The latter is not just a matter of eye candy, it's just how I see which virtual desktop is the current one. I don't think Gnome can do this, at least not unless you're a guru-wizard, which I'm not.

I am 99% sure that the only differences are the color on the face plate. If you look at the model numbers of your Lite-On link and mine, the only difference is the last digit, which in my experience is what manufactures do to signify color. The only other difference is that the beige one is OEM, so it won't come with an IDE cable or screws, but if you are just replacing an existing CD drive, that shouldn't be a problem. I would feel pretty comfortable recommending the beige Lite-On from your links. As for the others, I can't say specifically, but they all looked fine. HTH, Preston Thanks for the info. One thing I don't want to do is buy something that works but not with Linux and I can't send it back either. Being disabled puts me on a tight budget and I don't want to waste money on something I can't use. That is why I was asking the question.

That sounds about right for openoffice, also with only 512Mb ram you are
likely swapping alot. there is the package openoffice-bin, that installs
