Probs emerging OpenOffice
Hi Gentoo freaks on the list! I've tried to emerge OpenOffice on my Gentoo system from the install fest, but it allways crashed after 2 or 3 hours of compiling. After the 3rd attempt I've outcommented the CFLAGS in my make.conf, because at the begin of the emerge process there is an info saying that OpenOffice is very sensitiv to aggressive optimization parameters. Now that I've tried to emerge it without any optimization for the 3rd time and it still crashes, I somehow don't know what to do next. The last few lines of the CL output are Generating .rc file - deliver -- version: 1.17.4.3 COPY: build.lst - /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/solver/641/unxlngi4.pro/inc/forms/build.lst COPY: ../unxlngi4.pro/lib/libfrm641li.so - /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/solver/641/unxlngi4.pro/lib/libfrm641li.so deliver: /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/forms/prj/d.lst: ERROR: can't copy ../unxlngi4.pro/lib/libfrm641li.so: No space left on device COPY: ../unxlngi4.pro/bin/frm64101.res - /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/solver/641/unxlngi4.pro/bin/frm64101.res deliver: /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/forms/prj/d.lst: ERROR: can't copy ../unxlngi4.pro/bin/frm64101.res: No space left on device COPY: ../unxlngi4.pro/bin/frm64149.res - /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/solver/641/unxlngi4.pro/bin/frm64149.res deliver: /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/forms/prj/d.lst: ERROR: can't copy ../unxlngi4.pro/bin/frm64149.res: No space left on device COPY: ../util/frm.xml - /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/solver/641/unxlngi4.pro/xml/frm.xml deliver: /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/forms/prj/d.lst: ERROR: can't copy ../util/frm.xml: No space left on device COPY: ../util/frm.xml - /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/solver/641/unxlngi4.pro/xml/frm.xml deliver: /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/forms/prj/d.lst: ERROR: can't copy ../util/frm.xml: No space left on device Statistics: Files copied: 1 Files unchanged/not matching: 6 = Building project sch = /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/sch/sdi mkout -- version: 1.3 date: write error: No space left on device dmake: Error code 2, while making 'Shell escape' echo: write error: No space left on device ERROR: Error 65280 occurred while making /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.3-r1/work/oo_1.0.3_src/sch/sdi !!!

X quality really bad on 4mb video card on debian
Hi, I have just installed debian on a 233mhz computer with 4mb video card and 196 mb of ram. The speed of X is fine but the quality is horrible. Colours get stuffed up often, pixel get messed up when I move windows. I am using the amp driver for a allience promotion AT25 with xfree86 4.* . From my research on the net I found out that this is the right driver for the AT25. I had lent the computer to someone else and they were running win98 SE and it worked fine. What can I do to get it to work better? I have tried 3 different window managers but it makes little difference. Cheers Paul

Re: Probs emerging OpenOffice
I got problems too when I tried to emerge OOo on my second Gentoo box yesterday. In the end I decided to try emerge openoffice-bin and it worked fine. ? Version 1.0.2 though.

Hi Paul, I have a Alliance Promotion AT3D 4Meg card on Slackware which uses the same apm driver (I presume amp was a typo),the trick is to select no_accel since it is a hardware accelerated card which does not require software acceleration iirc.

Re: Fwd: Re: X quality really bad on 4mb video card on debian
What colour depth is the card working in? I fixed the colour problem by putting the colour depth on either 16 or 24. Both work fine. The pixel problem is still there. Pixels stuff up where I click things or drag windows.
Re: X quality really bad on 4mb video card on debian
the same apm driver (I presume amp was a typo),the trick is to select no_accel since it is a hardware accelerated card which does not require software acceleration iirc. ITS FIXED!!! Thanks so much for the help Cheers Paul
