Re: [gentoo-user] KDE menu missing
Run in konsole kde 4.2 , bash$ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental with this you force the rebuild of kde menu.

Apwal looks cool, I will give it a spin, though I am conditioned to years of using the FB right-click menu. I have L-mouse = Apwal R-mouse = FB menu : in ~/.fluxbox/init : OnDesktop Mouse1 :Exec apwal OnDesktop Mouse2 :HideMenus OnDesktop Mouse3 :RootMenu The problem remains with most menus and submenus in KDE applications: e.g. right-click on a file in Konqueror, then 'Open With' and there are no applications in the popup to select from . Yes, that reminds me that there was also a problem with Krusader, which no longer knows what to open files with, even after it is told to 'remember' the desired app. I also updated to kdebase-kioslaves-3.5.10-r1 , which mb the cause of both problems. We should try recompiling Konqueror Krusader to see if that helps. Any KDE gurus out there ?

Re: [gentoo-user] wpa_supplicant and att 2wire gateway
you can try to use wpa_passphrase command , that generate the network
profile for you Acces Point, copy into wpa_supplicant.conf and reboot the
device. works for me, when a trie to connect a AP with WPA encryption .
ej:
wpa_passphrase AP_id password :
that generate --
network={
ssid=AP_id
#psk=password
psk=993142399374b6d582da81a6d4887ef7a9283a0e00dd4678681aac5e0a2478e9
}
copy into wpa_supplicant.conf.

I've recently subscribed to ATT's u-verse which came with a
2wire 3800hgv-b wireless gateway. On the windows side, my
dual-booting Dell laptop picked up the signal and connected
trivially. I've had no such success on the linux side.
The gateway claims to use WPA-PSK authentication and TKIP
encryption. My supplicant.conf file looks like:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
network={
ssid=my_ssid
psk=my_password
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
proto=WPA
pairwise=TKIP
}
wpa_gui provides the following information for a few seconds:
adapter: ath0
network: 0: my_ssid
status: SCANNING
last message: Disconnect event - remove keys
authentication:
encryption:
ssid:
bssid:
ip address:
then displays:
adapter: ath0
network: 0: my_ssid
status: 4WAY_HANDSHAKE
last message: ASSOCIATED WITH 00:22:a4:0d:23:89
authentication: WPA-PSK
encryption: TKIP
ssid: my_ssid
bssid: 00:22:a4:0d:23:89
ip address:
and then cycles between these two sets of information.
I can't pretend that I understand what's going on, and I haven't
found any enlightenment in web searches. Does anyone know
what this means, where I'm stuck, and how to go forward?
Thanks for any help,

Re: [gentoo-user] Problem mounting cdrom,cdrw,usb
are you in the group plugdev ??

Actually this is my first time using Linux and i never have any experience using it before. Regards, Norman Norman, I am glad to know that you have chosen Gentoo as your first contact with GNU/Linux. First of all, congratulations! having a working Gentoo system without any previous Linux knowledge is a terrific start! I assumed that you knew what fstab is and how to modify that file because it is explained in the Gentoo Handbook, which is the reference to install this distribution. As explained in the Gentoo Handbook chapter 8 [1], you manually created a text file under /etc called fstab. This simple text file contains all the necessary information to, let's say auto-mount your different devices. This is my fstab, I post it here as an example: --- /dev/hdc1 /boot ext2defaults,noatime1 2 /dev/hdc3 / reiserfsnoatime 0 1 /dev/hdc2 noneswapsw 0 0 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom autonoauto,ro,user 0 0 /dev/floppy/fd0 /mnt/floppy autonoauto,rw,user 0 0 /dev/hda1 /mnt/RICvfatdefaults,noatime,user 0 0 /dev/hdb2 /mnt/ZERO vfatdefaults,noatime,user 0 0 /dev/sda1 /mnt/USBautonoauto,rw,user # NOTE: The next line is critical for boot! proc/proc procdefaults0 0 # glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for # POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink). # (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will # use almost no memory if not populated with files) shm /dev/shmtmpfsnodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0 --- Usually, adding this /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom autonoauto,ro,user 0 0 should be enough to have your cd-rom/cd-rw/dvd working =). If that does not work, then let us know and see if we can figure out something else. If it does work, then great! go on enjoying Gentoo Linux. You learn a lot using Gentoo. Is the only distribution that gave m the chance to learn a lot about Linux. It is very stable and flexible, you always have control over your own system, that is very important. Regards, Ricardo.

Re: [gentoo-user] iwlwifi - problem with wireless radio being killed
hi, the fast and not the pretty way to set on the Wireless radio interface ,when you have this problem do this. iwconfig wlan0 txpower on and then /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start On 4/20/08, »Q« [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a Sony Vaio laptop with a 4965AGN.
