Realplayer works fine but it is the only one app with this problem. This may not be entirely relevant to your problem, but it's worth a check. The fonts provided by the corefonts package are _badly_ corrupted, and largely out-dated (it would even be worth to file a bug). For example, if you make any GTK+ application use them (like any Xfce module or emelFM2), it will display boxes instead of text. So, check to make sure that Realplayer doesn't use Arial or something similar. If it does, get your hands on the MS fonts from an existing Windows installation, install them manually, remove corefonts and check that the paths conform in xorg.conf and the xfs config file (if you use the latter).

I used this command:
compiz --loose-binding --replace ccp emerald --replace
A strange thing is that it only works when I execute it a few times. The
first time I had no window decorations!
Another thing is when I want to go back to the xfce window manager the
decorations vanished again, the mouse pointer too. I could only bring
them back by deleting a few config files in my home-directory.
Furthermore the dependency for libwnck was raised a few days ago which
resulted in pulling the unstable gtk+ glib and pango packages in.
This hosed all my apps requiring gtk which means nearly everything. I
downgraded but this did not help. I had to unmerge and then reemerge
glib to get things working again.
So I think I will leave my fingers from compiz-fusion until it is more
stable or anybody knows a solution to this problems!
This doesn't sound very good :-(
I will wait, too, or does someone here got better results?
The dependcies for libwnck were lowered to the old version yesterday
by the maintainer of compiz. So this does not result in the inclusion
of the many unstable packages i mentioned above.
The other problems may remain, but now it is much easier to play
around with compiz{-fusion} again.

[gentoo-user] Using Amazon S3 as a PORTAGE_BINHOST
Hello. I'd like to use one of my public buckets at Amazon S3 to store the package files. To do so, I uploaded the packages to s3. They are available at http://public-files.askwar.gentoo-packages.s3.amazonaws.com/, all stored under the prefix GentooUSB/packages, eg. at http://public-files.askwar.gentoo-packages.s3.amazonaws.com/GentooUSB/packages/All/python-updater-0.3.tbz2. To make portage use this binhost, I set in make.conf: PORTAGE_BINHOST=http://public-files.askwar.gentoo-packages.s3.amazonaws.com/GentooUSB/packages/; But when I now try to use a package from there, eg. =app-admin/python-updater-0.3, I get an error message: winnb000488 / # emerge -vp --getbinpkgonly =app-admin/python-updater-0.3 These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies \Fetching binary packages info... x-amz-request-id: 1C961B660CF71C9F x-amz-id-2: qH6bzWMvFg+tG1iI0JFTefqCoxJBg3lrL2jdRVw1LrSc2djm0s+oEYiSGlHw1rgE Content-Type: application/xml Transfer-Encoding: chunked Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2007 14:10:52 GMT Server: AmazonS3 ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?

Re: [gentoo-user] A week of struggle
cut not exactly sure, but I'd look under menuconfig- Device Drivers- Graphics support. In particular: * VESA VGA graphics support VESA driver type (vesafb) (use vesafb-tng on 32-bit) Console display driver support --- [*] Video mode selection support (you already have this i think) * Framebuffer Console support (you probably have this already) No, I had not these! Now it works. 2 (this is really incredible) fonts disappeared on the Realplayer - Graphics support window! Instead of chars . . . boxes. i.e. file = 4 boxes,settings = 7 boxes, etc ?? Realplayer works fine but it is the only one app with this problem. I had the same problem with firefox-bin not so long ago. I created a forum thread about it: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-4185590.html#4185590 Very usefull link. don't know if it'll help or not. It helped!!

[gentoo-user] Strange Failure to Route(?) some web traffic on Gentoo router
Friends, I've set up routers several times with gentoo systems and iptables. The second-to-last system I set up works over DSL on the Qwest network. Everything is working as planned ( the same setup as the gentoo home router guide), except for one strange problem. A few websites (www.thepiratebay.org, comcast.net) aren't loading up properly from behind the NAT. The router itself can access the sites; they can also be accessed through TOR. However, behind the firewall, there is no access. I know you're all going to want to see the firewall rules. I've opened them all up to ACCEPT all packets. The only rule is for masquerading IPs going out on ppp0, and that's working fine for the most part. There are also Fail2Ban tables for SSH, but these tables appear to be working fine. Full iptables are listed below. I tested access through my firewall, and of course it worked fine. I am really stumped on this one; not sure if it's a problem with the way thepiratebay.org website works, the firewall, being the first I set up over DSL, or some other problem. Somebody suggested MTU problems; we tried turning the MTU on the ethernet interface bound to the ppp0 device from 1500 to 1492, but no luck came of it. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. sincerely, dan farrell == IPTABLES --- hermes ~ # iptables -L -v Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 91953 packets, 23M bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 84 9704 fail2ban-SSH tcp -- anyany anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:ssh Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 649K packets, 553M bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 2729 129K TCPMSS tcp -- anyany anywhere anywhere tcp flags:SYN,RST/SYN TCPMSS clamp to PMTU Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 459K packets, 64M bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination Chain fail2ban-SSH (1 references) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 20 3084 DROP all -- anyany 60-244-101-40.vdslpro.static.apol .com.tw anywhere 64 6620 RETURN all -- anyany anywhere anywhere --- NAT table --- hermes ~ # iptables -t nat -L -v Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT 72794 packets, 7040K bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT 442 packets, 35796 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 6155 337K MASQUERADE all -- anyppp0 anywhere anywhere Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 23518 packets, 1366K bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination --- === -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
