[gentoo-user] OT: buying a keyboard
Greetings; Many moons ago I purchased a Linux Cool Keyboard. The great thing about this keyboard is that a. it has great tactile response and b. it has a cover which folds down to protect the keyboard when not in use. It's finally getting worn out, keys are sticking pretty bad. I would like to get a new one, but the company I purchased it from (via the internet) seems to not exist any more. Some google action has not resulted in locating any similar keyboards. Anyone know where I might find such a keyboard? Thanks much.

[gentoo-user] gnome-terminal, failed to contact the GConf daemon; exiting.
Hi all - There is a bug report on this: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=268846 and that report points to some other links: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2009-April/msg00451.html http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=570588 one of which contains a patch to fix it. However, I am not smart enough to know how to use/apply this patch. Can someone clarify for me please? I've never done such a process before. Thanks much. Adrian

Thus, am I right that udevd is trying to rename /dev/fb but cannot do so because it is a directory not a file? I tried the google/linux thing for the error message and got nothing at all.

[gentoo-user] OT: Email from Mac to PC/Win

When she sends emails from her Mac: Sometimes attachments don't arrive. Sometimes the emails never arrive (or so people claim, never happens to me) Sometimes her emails end up in the junk mail folder (again, never happens to me) Our IT people are telling here this is because Mac email is not compatible with PCs. My intuition years of computer use is telling me this is bullshit. I've been wrong before . . . Just not often. *haha* Any commentary?

[gentoo-user] USB mass storage - WD My Book
Greetings. Wondering if anyone can help me out on this. I got a Western Digital My Book, 500G -- and it's not happy with my main computer. I tried it on a Windows system and my other computer, running 2.6.17-r8, and it's happy there. So the drive is working. However on this box, running 2.6.12-r6 I get the messages below from dmesg. I should mention that I can not mount the drive on the 2.6.12 box, but it mounts fine on the 2.6.17 system. The error messages start shorty (a minute or so) after plugging the device in and doing nothing else.

I'm currently compiling 2.6.17-r8 for this box to see if that makes any difference. I might be barking up the wrong tree however. I've also done a bit of googleing for that error message, nothing helpful there.

[gentoo-user] OT: encoding MP3 files for iPod
Greetings; I have acquired an iPodNano and have been playing about with that. I've been able to do everything I need to do using GNUpod, yet there is an oddity. Any MP3 file I encode on my computer will not play. The file is there, the iPod sees it, but when I try to play the song, it simply skips over it. I don't have this problem with MP3 files from other sources. My first guess is that something is different in the encoding process? A few hours of reading man pages and Googling haven't helped any. Suggestions? Thanks much Adrian -- On The Fly Photography -:- Creation From Chaos On The Fly Photography: http://204EastSouth.com Purchase from On The Fly: http://204EastSouth.com/OTFStore.htm The Cynical Libertarian Society: http://www.204EastSouth.com/cls -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] OT: encoding MP3 files for iPod
Thanks to you both. Wanna here something strange. . . or maybe not. It's the file name. A file named Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon - 02 - On The Run.mp3 will not work. I rename it to pf-dsotm-03.mp3 and it works just fine. I don't know why yet. I have mp3 files which have come from the internet which have spaces, capital letters, lower case letters, numbers, and they work fine. When I have time my curiosity will force me to experiment some more to find out exactly what causes this, but for now I'm content to be loading the thingy up with music.

As one who recently wrote a Ruby library for parsing Flac metadata (and thus read the Flac spec[1]) I can say that all metadata, including the VORBIS_COMMENT block are before the stream contents (ie: the audio bits).

Hi,
Check the links in /etc/runlevels/{boot,default,nonetwork,single}
In all of them you have a link to a file under /etc/init.d/* according
to runlevel configuration. Some or all of the links might point to a
nonexistent files (e.g. /tmp/stage1/etc/init.d/consolefont).
There's also a Bug about this in Bugzilla, fix the links manually or
find a script (Bug-?) which will do this for you.

Ok, for the record. I am an idiot. I simple deleted ~/.AbiSuite and everything works fine now. The part that is even sadder is that I should have known to try this first thing, right away.

You typically won't need to add these (which is probably why there is little if any reference in the gentoo doc). Obviously there are more uses for LDFLAGS, but those above are used the most. If you do need them you can set up your environment variables before doing the make process. You can also use them on the command line ala LDFLAGS=-llib make, etc. Am I doing this correctly?

I've got one for my xorg-x11 install, so it must not be too obsolete... A google search for DPSDefaultErrorProc brought back a pointer to the header file xc/include/DPS/dpsclient.h which seems to indicate that DPSDefaultErrorProc is the default error handler for postscript error reporting. Being that it's the default, it definitely should be in the libs... Using the nm tool with find, I see that the DPSDefaultErrorProc is marked as undefined in libdpstk.so, but appears to be defined in libdps.so. So it would appear that you have some sort of linking issue going on... For a quick fix I'd suggest trying to build pixie manually and ensure that you include a -ldps in your LDFLAGS. Whether it's a bug or not in the ebuild I couldn't venture to guess. Hi Dave -- thanks for the response. I'm not sure I understand it all, but I understand enough to get me started and do some testing. One question however, when you say to build pixie manually, what do you mean by building it manually?

Is that different from emerge pixie Yeah. Basically you do the following: 1. get the tarball either from the home site or /usr/portage/distfiles to your home directory. Usually if I'm going to do a manual build I grab the latest stable distribution from the home site. 2. extract the tarball then cd into the directory. 3. Run the configure script, but you have two options: a) use ./configure --prefix=/usr to replace the pixie that portage emerged or b) use ./configure --prefix=/usr/local to get a clean local copy. 4. Build using the make command. 5. At this point you can test in the local directory to see if it works. 6. If you're happy with the build, su then make install. Oh, duh... I have done an ./configure make make install since I started using Gentoo. How soon we forget. Actually it was just a terminology problem of me not grasping what you said. If I replace the pixie emerged by portage does that mess up anything as far as portage is concerned? I expect there is something out there about my question. I'll have to go looking when I have time. I'll probably try your suggestions this weekend. Much too busy at the moment to play with this right now. I have one more dumb question. What man page do I read to understand how to use LDFLAGS? I was thinking this was a variable in make.conf however I just read the man page for make.conf and I see that it is not documented there. Also looked around at gentoo.org documentation, but didn't find anything that helps yet. Again, thank you very much for your time and assistance.

[gentoo-user] Pixie does not run.
Greetings; When I try to run pixie I get the following result: Wed Aug 31 06:23:19 ~ skippi $ pixie pixie: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libdpstk.so.0: undefined symbol: DPSDefaultErrorProc I tried to re-emerge pixie in order to see if that gave me any useful error messages. It emerged quite happily, no problem. I did a linux google search for this error message and found nothing at all, which strikes me as odd . . . Also checked the bug reports for anything on pixie and found nothing. I guessing (and guessing I am) the problem isn't with pixie, but with one of the libraries it needs. Is the thing to do find out which package libdpstk.so.0 is a part of and try to re-emerge that package? Any suggestions? Much thanks.

Symlinks were correct, as you specified. I was having no problems at all until I attempted to compile the Gimp-2.0.2, and at that point I made what I believe is a correction to the freetype.h file (I moved #include ft2build.h before #ifndef FT_FREETYPE_H) I am not a C programmer, so the logic I used may be errent... but it is the only thing I changed, and I was then able to compile the Gimp. (I did not reboot, ldconfig, anything.) about the same error message. I did: emerge -C freetype and removed both instances of freetype then emerge freetype to install the latest then I edited freetype.h as this user did and it seems to be working. I was also unable to upgrade gtk+ and turns out I was having the exact same error compiling that. I just emerged gtk+ with no problem, and am currently working on Firefox. Only three more problems to solve, and I'll be happy.
