Good luck. I have tried the radeon driver from time to time, but never had any real success with it. Well, it is working now on one machine, but I need TV-Out, and I have temporarily given up on finding out what's wrong there, and stick to old kernel, old X and old ati-drivers that still support this old card. On my main computer, radeon drivers get better and better. That is, X now starts, it even does 3D acceleration now, but it crashes when I move the mouse pointer onto the KDE4 panel. Wonko

Not directly related to your problem (maybe), but I've noticed that since recent versions, Mozilla applications performance in NX server is terrible! The screen redraws like crazy and it's almost impossible to use Thunderbird or Firefox anymore. (I've also noticed this with certain KDE/Qt programs as well, with Akregator being the worst one.) Older Mozilla programs like Seamonkey 1.x still work great, though. So I'm not sure if they're doing some kind of optimized drawing or some trick that's not fully supported everywhere...

[gentoo-user] Fwd: Update of mozilla products (firefox, thunderbird, seamonkey) gone "bad"...
(seems like this message got lost somehow...) Hi! Yesterday I got an update of said apps (firefox, thunderbird, seamonkey) so I updated them (see list of version and possibly related parts below). Now all of them exhibit a strange phenomenon: Often, the window, or parts thereof are not redrawn, just cleared, which makes it hard to see web pages and mail. In order to force a redraw I have to resize the app, which is annoying. I run the latest ati binary ati-drivers-10.6 which ran fine with the previous versions, so I don't think that's the problem. Does anyone else see this problem or know the solution? It's only firefox, seamonkey and thunderbird that exhibits this problem. x11-libs:cairo-1.8.10:20100723-161942.log x11-plugins:enigmail-1.1.2-r1:20100723-172804.log www-client:mozilla-firefox-3.6.7:20100723-165946.log www-client:seamonkey-2.0.6:20100723-165841.log xulrunner-1.9.2.7-r1:20100723-163329.log mail-client:thunderbird-3.1.1:20100723-172616.log Portage 2.1.8.3 (default/linux/x86/10.0, gcc-4.4.3, glibc-2.11.2-r0, 2.6.34-gentoo-r2_SMP_PREEMPT_100717 i686) = System uname: linux-2.6.34-gentoo-r2_smp_preempt_100717-i686-intel-r-_core-tm-2_quad_cpu_q95...@_2.83ghz-with-gentoo-1.12.13 Timestamp of tree: Sat, 24 Jul 2010 09:45:02 + app-shells/bash: 4.0_p37 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.11 dev-lang/python: 2.6.5-r2 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.4-r3 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.13 sys-apps/sandbox:1.6-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.65 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r4, 1.9.6-r3, 1.10.3, 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.20.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.4.3-r2 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6b virtual/os-headers: 2.6.30-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" ACCEPT_LICENSE="* -...@eula dlj-1.1 sun-bcla-java-vm" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=nocona -pipe -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /etc/X11/app-defaults/ /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/applications/ /var/lib/hsqldb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/language.dat.d /etc/texmf/language.def.d /etc/texmf/updmap.d /etc/texmf/web2c" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=nocona -pipe -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="assume-digests distlocks fixpackages news parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo/ ftp://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo/ http://ds.thn.htu.se/linux/gentoo http://ftp.du.se/pub/os/gentoo ftp://ftp.du.se/pub/os/gentoo http://mirror.pudas.net/gentoo http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo"; LANG="en_US.utf8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed" LINGUAS="en sv en_GB sv_SE sv-SE en_US" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/layman/sunrise /usr/local/portage/layman/science /usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aac acl acpi aim alsa ansi asf audiofile avi bash-completion bcmath berkdb bitmap-fonts blas bzip2 bzlib cairo caps cdparanoia cdr cli cracklib crypt cscope css ctype cups cxx dga divx4linux dlloader doc dri dts dv dvb dvd dvdr dvdread emacs encode examples exif fbcon ffmpeg fftw filepicker fits flac foomaticdb fortran freetype ftp gd gdbm gif gimp ginac glitz glut gmp gnutls gphoto2 gpm gtk2 guile iconv icq imagemagick imap imlib jabber java jpeg junit kerberos ladcca lapack latex lcms leim libdts liblzo libwww lm_sensors mad matroska memlimit mhash mime mjpeg mmap mmx mng modules mozilla moznopango mozsvg mp3 mpeg mplayer mudflap mythtv ncurses nls nowin noxft nptl nptlonly ogg openal openexr opengl openmp pam pcntl pcre pdf pdflib perl pic pie plotutils png posix postgresql ppds pppd ptp2 python qhull quicktime readline recode reflection restrict-javascript ruby sasl scanner schroedinger sdl session shared sharedmem smp sndfile sockets sox speex spl sse sse2 ssl svg sysfs sysvipc szip tcltk tcpd tetex theora threads tiff timidity toolame truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb v4l v4l2 vcd videos vorbis win32codecs wmf wxgtk1 x264 x86 xanim xforms xine xorg xpm xv xvid xvmc zlib zvbi" ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoind

emerge -av1 =glibc-2.10.1-r1
then emerge the rest of world. That version of glibc is OK with gcc-4.1.* and
breaks the circular loop.
I had to do this very thing this weekend on an old box. Solving it involved
reading all the ebuilds and writing down their deps to find a path through it
:-)

[gentoo-user] Circular dependencies
Hi All,
Earlier time I did resolve this problem because it was my desktop
machine. But now this is an virtual machine hosted by Amazon. So, how
can fix this circular dependencies issue? The portage is synced.
Thanks for any help!

Another gotcha is when you disable the deprecated CONFIG_IDE in the kernel and you don't update your grub.conf and /etc/fstab to rename /dev/hda's into /dev/sda's. -- Regards, Mick

Further complicated by the bios and raidchip changing drive assignments depending on which drive/cd/floppy you booted from (i.e., what grub sees as the drive numbers changes when the real OS is booted). I forgot what hoops I had to jump through to get this going originally. Might be time for a new setup - amd athlon 2500+ are not so cool these days :) BillK

Oh. I stupidly read this as 'just click right on the K thingy', meaning 'just do it', not 'use the right button'. Yes, it hast the menu editor, even though I have the KDE-for-young-dudes menu layout active. Cool, never did this before. Or did I? At least I know the option to switch to the old menu style from somewhere. Wonko
