If I read this correctly, it appears that it can not find the keyboard

compiler (xkbcomp) reports:  Warning: Multiple names for  keycode 211.


In your make.conf, do you have a line that is something like this:

INPUT_DEVICES=keyboard mouse

Also make sure you have something like the following in your xorg.conf file:

Section InputDevice
   Identifier Keyboard0
   Driver kbd
EndSection

Section InputDevice
   Identifier Mouse0
   Driver mouse
   Option Protocol auto
   Option Device /dev/input/mouse0
   Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 6 7
EndSection

This may not have anything to do with the problem but it is something 
that didn't look right to me.

You're only redirecting standard output to the file, not the standard

  Let's make an experiment:
 
  1. Terminate all downloads and activity on the internet.
  2. Restart your bind (so it flushes its cache)
  3. in XP1 download something huge (an ISO image) from one souce in the
  internet and wait 'til it is at full speed (does it go up to 0.5Mb??)
  4. in XP2 start to ping different sources. Does XP2 lost packets?

 If I do my downloading from XP (using Linux as my nameserver) everything
 works perfectly.  My downloads max-out my ADSL connection - and not only
 can I ping other hosts concurrently, but I can surf the web and
 bandwidth is shared fairly between competing applications.

I think that the problem is associated with the way that the Linux box treats 
bind requests.  Other than QoS which will try to allocate some bandwidth to 
bind packets, or nice which will elevate bind's processes - you may want to 
check your kernel's IO scheduler and set it to something that will give each 
process an equal bite of the cherry.  Trial  error may get you there.

A workaround to avoid WinXP name requests timing out is to manually set at 
your WinXP clients the Netgear's IP address as their secondary DNS server.

 My router is a Netgear Wireless ADSL Firewall Router - it seems pretty
 common... and I've not found other people moaning that it has
 problems...  For me, it only has problems when accessed from my Linux box.

I used to run a Netgear DG834 and did not notice anything like this.  After a 
few seconds the Gentoo and WinXP clients would share the bandwidth - 
irrespective of which one started downloading first.  WinXP might have been 
slightly more hesitant to start with, but after say 30 seconds it would even 
out.  However, this was with wired full duplex connections.  Wireless is half 
duplex, transmit and receive happens sequentially not in parallel - when 
downloading on the Gentoo goes at full pelt it may take longer for inbound 
packets to get to bind and this could make the rather short TTL that 
MSWindows has to time out.

PS. Have you tried this with two Linux clients (use Knoppix on one of your 
MSWindows boxen)?

HTH.

I don't think QOS is the right answer - since I've never seen this 
problem before - and I've never used QOS on Linux before.  I think that 
the scheduler might explain things far better. I half-remember something 
about the inclusion of the new CFS scheduler when I compiled the 
kernel - maybe the default changed when I moved to the 2.6.23-gentoo-r3 
kernel from - erm - some older 2.6 version many months ago.


Maybe I should upgrade to the latest kernel (I'm reluctant to do this in 
a hurry - since I've lost my notes on which kernel options I'd activated 
- and it's a 'live' box I'm using on a day-to-day basis that I'd rather 
not break. Doah!)

That's encouraging.  Always good to know that there are no 'known' 
bugs... I was caught out by this a few years ago with a DLink router - 
where I assumed it was my FreeBSD box at fault - but, actually, the 
router had broken firmware.
PS. Have you tried this with two Linux clients (use Knoppix on one of your

No, I could, I guess - but I'm 95% convinced now that this is an I/O

that want different versions of ffmpeg:

equery depends transcode
app-cdr/k3b-1.0.4 (encode? media-video/transcode)


equery depends xine-lib
kde-base/artsplugin-xine-3.5.9 (=media-libs/xine-lib-1.0)
media-sound/amarok-1.4.9.1 (=media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.2_pre20060328-r8)
media-video/kaffeine-0.8.6 (=media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.9)
media-video/kmplayer-0.10.0c (xine? =media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.1)


I really need k3b, kaffeine



!!! Multiple versions within a single package slot have been
!!! pulled into the dependency graph:
media-video/ffmpeg:0
  ('installed', '/', 'media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070616-r20', 'nomerge') 
pulled in by
('ebuild', '/', 'media-video/transcode-1.0.5-r3', 'merge')
  ('ebuild', '/', 'media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20080326', 'merge') pulled in by
('ebuild', '/', 'media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.15', 'merge')



What are some amicable solutions to this, like a versions
of ffmpeg et. al. that work together? What the simplist/best
way to effect such masking in /etc/portage/*  So that
when the conflicts are resolved the I will know about it
(and can remove entries in /etc/portage/* or they these
entries are ignored ???

I've been using ~ and specific version numbers with specific
packages with some success, but, I'm not fully confident
(at least with my gentoo skills) on knowing when to remove these
such entries.

Well now, with new information, I'm fairly confused.

I have one gentoo workstation that seems to be fine. After
spending quite some time looking at the differences in several
system, I have questions.

On this one (seems to hacked correctly) system I have eliminated:
artsplugin-xine

Kaffeine and k3b are both installed and working without 
artsplugin-xine ( I can play a DVD and burn a cd).
Heres some more information on this mystically working system
(as far as conflicts between xine-lib ffmpeg, transcode et al:


equery depends ffmpeg

app-cdr/k3b-1.0.4 (ffmpeg? media-video/ffmpeg)
media-libs/libquicktime-1.0.2 (ffmpeg? media-video/ffmpeg)

media-sound/sox-14.0.1 (ffmpeg? media-video/ffmpeg)
media-video/motion-3.2.10.1 (ffmpeg? media-video/ffmpeg)
media-video/transcode-1.0.5-r3 (media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20080326)
media-video/vlc-0.8.6i (media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070616-r20)
   (=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20050226-r1)

equery depends xine-lib
[ Searching for packages depending on xine-lib... ]
media-video/codeine-1.0.1.3 (media-libs/xine-lib)
media-video/kaffeine-0.8.6 (=media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.9)
media-video/kmplayer-0.10.0c (xine? =media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.1)
media-video/xine-ui-0.99.5-r1 (=media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.0)


I have mostly the small MM packages on these system, but the one
that will update only have one difference that I can find, that is
no 'artsplugin-xine'.

Is this possible; to just remove artsplugin-xine Even though
Kde-meta 3.5.9 is installed? A good idea?

Does arts go away with KDE 4x?



Looking for some advise here

well could you use wget to get the files because they have a built in
rate limiter so you can say 120K or whatever

 Copy the current config over and run make oldconfig. There's no need to
 take notes when the system keeps track for you.

 Installing a new kernel won't cause the old one to break, no matter how
 badly you misconfigure it.

 In your make.conf, do you have a line that is something like this:

 INPUT_DEVICES=keyboard mouse

 Also make sure you have something like the following in your xorg.conf 
 file:

 Section InputDevice
Identifier Keyboard0
Driver kbd
 EndSection

 Section InputDevice
Identifier Mouse0
Driver mouse
Option Protocol auto
Option Device /dev/input/mouse0
Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 6 7

 This may not have anything to do with the problem but it is something that 
 didn't look right to me.

Ack. (and thanks) I sort-of knew that... though I'd have had to read the 
docs to remember make oldconfig.  With systems I need, I'm 
exceptionally cautious... I've never forgiven myself for the decade's 
acquisition of 10GB of data... that I accidentally wiped thinking I was 
backing it up. It's a sinking feeling like no other.


I'll give the kernel a shot, but only when I've a day or two to recover 
if I screw-up. :-)
