Re: [gentoo-user] [NEWBIE] emerge blocked
I always solve it by unmerging (emerge -C) the blocker one (x11-themes/gnome-themes) and reemerging it afterwards.

[gentoo-user] Entrance (enlightenment) problem
Hello, I've followed the instructions at http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_emerge_e17 to install Enlightenment and Entrance, but I can't open a desktop session. xdm opens Entrance, but when I input my user and pass it goes black for a moment (as if it were changing the resolution) and goes back to entrance login without prompting a word. What can go wrong? Thanks -- Juan Ignacio Sánchez Lara Ingeniero Técnico en Informática de Sistemas -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Entrance (enlightenment) problem [SOLVED]
I must admit it's quite embarrasing, but now it works... I changed XSESSION to kde-3.4 and now it works, not only kde but also enlightenment I can't realize why it has made it to work, but the fact it's the only thing I've touched... Thanks everybody On 6/6/05, Juan Ignacio Sánchez Lara [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Several questions: Are you selecting a specific WM from the drop-down menu, or are you just using Default? I am not certain that Entrance has/uses a Default setting, wherever it may come from. You'd think from /etc/rc.conf, but heck, GDM doesn't use that to set its default (it asks you, so it has its own config for this somewhere), so maybe Entrance doesn't either (although it never asked me about setting anything as default). Do you have any other WMs installed and listed, and have you tried logging into them instead? Do any of them work, and which ones do not? I've tried not only default but enlightenment and kde (the WMs I have). None worked. I've checked that the database entries correspond with /etc/X11/Session files. If Enlightenment itself is the one that doesn't work, did you previously have e16 installed? I did, and even though e17 very kindly moved the previous enlightenment.desktop item in /etc/X11/Sessions to e16.desktop, neither the e16 entry appeared in the list, nor did choosing Enlightenment start e17. e17 is the first Enlightenment release I install. This turned out to be because the exec line in the Enlightenment.desktop entry was still pointing to /usr/bin/enlightenment, whereas the binary for e17 is named something like enlightenment-0.17 (to distinguish it from the e16 binary). So I changed the exec line in the script, and then it was fine. However I uninstalled both e16 and e17 (I may reinstall e16, which I liked much better), and switched to fvwm anyway. But e17 sure is pretty, can't argue with that. Hope this helps, Holly Thanks for the reply, anyway...

Re: [gentoo-user] Kile dependencies after upgrading to kde 3.4 [solved]
I have finally not solved it that way, but thanks anyway... Working with --tree emerge option an emerging kdegraphics-meta (as well as kdegraphics software like kgamma and kolourpaint has been enough to mantain the upgrade. I have also unmerged 3.3 packages.

Look it up in the archives, there's a thread with instructions on how to do this started on april 11. Basically you need to add the kde packages themselves (not kde-meta) to /etc/portage/packages.keywords with ~x86 (or ~amd64 or whatever). This is the only way for your kde-3.4.0 to survive a world update. In that thread you'll see which packages.

[gentoo-user] Kile dependencies after upgrading to kde 3.4
Hi everybody Finally I couldn't for kde 3.4 to be in the stable branch and I upgraded. No serious problem until I tried to emerge --update --deep --newuse world --verbose (the way I always upgrade my system). When I tried to emerge that way, it replied that kile-1.7.1 had some dependencies, and since I thought it would be because it's a before-kde-3.4 version I upgraded to the -unstable- 1.8_beta2. The problem is that when I tried again to emerge world it replied the following: Calculating world dependencies \ !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ~kde-base/kdebase-3.4.0 have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - kde-base/kdebase-3.4.0 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or section 2.2 Software Availability in the Gentoo Handbook. !!!(dependency required by kde-base/kdegraphics-3.4.0 [ebuild]) !!! Problem with ebuild app-editors/kile-1.8_beta2 !!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem. !!! Depgraph creation failed. AFAIK kdebase and kdegraphics correspond to the old way to emerge kde, isn't it? What's the problem, then? Are kile dependencies wrong? Should I emerge/configure something I missed? Is there any workaround for this?

[gentoo-user] TV-out with radeon mobility 9700
Hello, I'm trying to get the TV-out working... In xorg.conf I change two lines with the following values, according to http://odin.prohosting.com/wedge01/gentoo-radeon-faq.html#4_tvout: Option MonitorLayout NONE, AUTO Option TVColorAdj 0 When restarting Xorg I get no output at the LCD (as it's supposed to be), and I get something in the TV: I can see kdm there, but too flickering (as it had a wrong frequency, it's hard for me to explain that). What else must I configure in order to make it work? I have installed ati-drivers 8.10.19.
