[gentoo-user] nvidia-drivers with tuxonice-sources 2.6.31
Greets, I don't get it: I was running tuxonice-sources-2.6.31 (amd64) for a while now and had unmasked nvidia-drivers at kernel-change to get nvidia-drivers-190.36 back then. That worked fine so far. At that time I had gcc-4.4.1, btw. 2 days ago I did some changes, got gcc-4.4.2 and also new nvidia-drivers-190.40. The drivers compiled but didn't load, dmesg said: nvidia: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout hmm Tried some things then decided to go back to 190.36 ... but they don't load as well. Yes, I removed the module (modprobe -r) before trying to load the new one ... I even tried to downgrade gcc again to get back to the gcc/nvidia-combo that had worked before. No success.

Divide your screen resolution (pixels) by its visible area (inches) to get DPI. For example my monitor screen is 16 inches wide and 12 inches tall and I use 1600x1200 resolution. That is 100dpi. In my system this is autodetected when xorg starts (maybe the nvidia drivers do it?). Theoretically, I think if the DPI is set correctly, a 10 point font will be the same physical size on any display. I think most consumer-grade desktop LCD panels are around 75dpi. Some mobile phones like Nokia N82 have a really high-density screen, 256dpi. So a website or program that measures its fonts or widgets in fixed pixels rather than relative to the dpi will look dramatically different in those cases. Within programs, using KDE4 daily the DPI seems to be respected almost eveywhere. Sometimes gtk+ apps will have huge fonts for no apparent (to me) reason but I seem to be free of that problem at the moment.

I think the DPI of the monitor would still be valid in the vmware window, just set it to that of your physical monitor and I think it should be the same. The size of 1 pixel in the vmware window should be the same as the size of 1 pixel in your monitor normally. If your two monitors are not the same DPI then things could be complicated though. I don't use multi-monitors so I'm unfamiliar with how that would work.

I updated the new machine to the latest everything, and got a message that I could delete libjpeg.so.62 (a symlink to libjpeg.so.62.0.0) in /usr/lib (that's where it is on my Gentoo system). Bad move... Wine no longer ran. Fortunately, I had not updated my older machine, so I was able to copy the files over from it, and Wine is now running. The weird part is that I followed instructions, and ran the revdep-rebuild. It claimed there were no dynamic links to libjpeg.so.62 Did you rebuild Wine? It runs just fine here with media-libs/jpeg-7.

One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - dev-python/PyQt4-4.5.4-r4 (Change USE: +sql +webkit) You need to re-emerge PyQt4 with USE=sql webkit, or you could install kdebase-meta with USE=-python. Thanks Neil, Could it be that all this is caused by KDE-4.3 going stable? Perhaps I should now bite the bullet unmerge all my KDE-3.5 packages and start a mammoth emerge of KDE-4 ? -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
