Anyway it looks to me like Konqueror is always honoring the document-specified fonts instead of your chosen ones. So if a web page specifies Verdana for everything (like Yahoo does), then that is what konqueror displays.

Besides that, I'm looking at using the autoindex script for web-based file storage. It doesn't support LDAP. (AFAIK) The sql-way seems more complicated to me. I suspect there is something that I may be missing or don't understand. The auotoindex is used only to generate an HTML list of the contents of a given directory. Not to manage that contents. The access to that directory can be restricted using authentication. Then things like mod_auth_mysql can become handy for example to use only one authentication for the protected area and for the site's forum (though this won't work with forums like SMF, which use a..hmhm..let me say strange way to store passwords). If your idea is to make something like a file sharing site, where depending on the login credentials a user could only download files or again depending on the credentials the user could also upload files the easiest way is to use a cgi script (perl, php, whatever) for uploading. The script should reside in a directory where only unloaders have access and should save the uploaded files in the downloads directory.

Re: [gentoo-user] nv vs nvidia (xorg-7*)
James,NV is an open source driver supporting all NVidia cards, but does not support hardware acceleration. There are numerous and very annoying bugs reported with this driver. NVIDIA is a proprietary driver which supports 2D and 3D hardware acceleration through the GF2 series of cards. This is your best option. NVIDIA-LEGACY is a driver I was not even aware of, but I'm guessing this would support GF1, 256, and TNT cards that have been bumped out of the main driver for space. Both of your cards should use the NVIDIA driver. You can use this flag in your make.conf settings for xorg 7, however it will really not have much affect. You'll need to emerge these seperately as far as I know. # emerge nvidia-glx nvidia-kernelthen go on and emerge your xorg 7. Be sure to read about driver compatibility problems with XOrg 7.1 and up on the gentoo-wiki site if you plan to use that version of xorg.JBDubbsOn 7/10/06, James [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Sorry for revisiting a confusing subject, but after ready many of the recent postings on nvidia and xorg-7* I have a few questions.Yes I have read:http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/x/x11/modular-x-howto.xml and it looks fine and reasonable, in fact the I'm at the revdep-rebuild on my first of 7 convertions to modular X.(7.*).My first card:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] (rev b2)Legacy or current?

I *think* if you have buildpkg in your FEATURES, you will get binary packages in your $PKGDIR with the new, updated versions. But previous versions are not deleted until you do an eclean packages. So yeah, you need to have buildpkg in FEATURES for a while to get a nice set of backup packages, or use quickpkg. -Richard And if you have not cleaned out your distfiles, you can always just specify the version you want to emerge as well.

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: java 1.4 eclipse
On 7/10/06, James [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ah, that brings up a follow up question. If many of the ebuild packages have built in documentation, then is there a tool/package/web_interface that allow the document perusal without individual(admin) interaction? Well the general rule is that package documentation files other than man pages and info docs get installed under /usr/share/doc/pkg-version. This would include html, pdfs, and text files. For example, bind-tools, ntp, python-docs, etc all install their user manuals under this directory. The bad news is that this doesn't include everything. Build instructions or other items not normally installed as part of the package will not be found here. In some cases it is necessary to look for extra documentation files in the source archives, the web site, or even the CVS repository of the upstream project that provides the package. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Any guess to why amarok visualizations fail to function?
On 7/9/06, Kenton Groombridge [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I posted this a couple weeks ago with no answer. I am still unable to determine what is going on. Anytime I select a visualization from Tools-Visualizations menu, I get the following output and the visualization output window closes. Well it looks like I get the same problems running the same versions of amarok, libvisual, and libvisual-plugins. Unfortunately the trace output that I get seems more closely related to trying to cleanup after the amarok_libvisual crash than pointing to the actual cause of the crash. I've built debug versions of these to do some more testing with and hopefully submit a useful bug report... Have you tried backing off to a previous version of amarok, like 1.4.0a? It looks like the libvisual-0.4 updates in 1.4.1 are pretty significant (previous amarok versions used libvisual-0.2). -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
