[gentoo-user] xorg-server-1.5 breaks X, How to downgrade?
Upgrading to xorg-server-1.5 went relatively smoothly on 2 laptops, but my first attempt on a desktop has been a failure. I get: Backtrace: Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 260: dl_open_worker: Assertion `_dl_debug_initialize (0, args-nsid)-r_state == RT_CONSISTENT' failed! So many packages were upgraded along with xorg-server that I'm not sure what to downgrade. Here are the packages that were upgraded at the same time. Can anyone suggest any to downgrade? I've already downgraded to xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r6 and mesa-6.5.2-r1. dev-db:sqlite sys-libs:timezone-data dev-libs:libevent x11-misc:util-macros x11-proto:xproto x11-proto:inputproto x11-libs:xtrans x11-proto:renderproto x11-proto:randrproto x11-libs:pixman x11-proto:xf86driproto x11-proto:printproto dev-libs:libpthread-stubs x11-proto:dri2proto x11-proto:xextproto x11-libs:libXau x11-libs:libdrm x11-apps:rgb x11-apps:sessreg x11-libs:libX11 x11-libs:libXext x11-libs:libXrender x11-libs:libxkbfile x11-apps:luit x11-libs:libXi x11-libs:libXrandr x11-libs:libXxf86vm x11-apps:xkbcomp x11-libs:libXScrnSaver x11-libs:libXinerama x11-libs:libXv x11-apps:xrandr x11-apps:mkfontscale x11-libs:libXfont x11-apps:mkfontdir net-libs:gnutls x11-misc:xkeyboard-config x11-libs:libXft x11-libs:libSM x11-libs:libXmu media-libs:mesa x11-apps:xauth x11-apps:xrdb x11-wm:twm x11-apps:xprop x11-apps:xwininfo x11-apps:mesa-progs x11-libs:libXaw x11-apps:xsm x11-apps:xclock x11-apps:xmessage x11-terms:xterm x11-apps:xinit x11-libs:libpciaccess x11-base:xorg-server x11-drivers:xf86-input-evdev Should I just mask the installed version of all of these?

Basically a standard protocol for connecting a digital camera (rather than each vendor using their proprietary method). I think if you use gphoto2 it can detect attached cameras and protocols.

Well, there is libgphoto2 which is what most (all?) of the camera programs use to access the camera, because many (most?) cameras lack USB mass storage support... one such camera would be my Canon. :) Since you can't mount the camera and just browse and copy the files, programs need to use libgphoto2 (or similar) to be able to communicate with the camera and do things like list the files or download the images to the PC. I guess with your N82 you're just connecting it in mass storage mode and not using gnokii or anything, right? So in that case you don't need any special software such as gphoto2, you can just copy the files as if you were using a card reader. Which, by the way, is why I use a card reader with my camera instead of the stupid PTP interface. :) On my N95 I don't take many pictures, so I used to use bluetooth to send it to my PC... but apparently bluez is all kinds of broken right now, and KDE4 may not have any bluetooth at all as far as I know, so now I'll just e-mail them from the phone or use Share Online to post it to the web. By the way - speaking of photos on your N82, I recommend trying http://betalabs.nokia.com/betas/view/nokia-photo-browser if you haven't already. It's very basic but has lots of potential. :)
