Well, the latest breaking news from the rdesktop front: - I tried to reemerge rdesktop (release 1.4.1) with the debug USE flag set in package.use. First test: It works !!! (after spewing incredible amounts of debugging messages at me). OK. - I removed the line specifying debug USE flag and reemerged again (same state as before). What do you think happened now? well it worked Well... on one hand, I'm glad it's working now. BUT .. I feel somewhat spooked :-))) Has ANYONE some kind of explanation for that???

Hi, Sorry for writing the first email in german - it was meant for gentoo-user-de :-/ Now the same question in english...

BUT: On my new PC rdesktop can't connect to any of our WindowsXP machines. I always get the error message listed above (a windows for rdesktop appears disappears after the error msg is shown). On my OLD system, rdesktop (with the SAME arguments) works as designed! According to eix the same version of rdesktop is installed on both systems (which are kept up to date with frequent emerge --deep --newuse --tree --ask world). eix -I rdesktop ays: * net-misc/rdesktop Available versions: 1.4.1 ~1.5.0 ~1.5.0-r1 Installed: 1.4.1 Homepage: http://rdesktop.sourceforge.net/ Description: A Remote Desktop Protocol Client according to equery uses the USE flags are the same, too: equery uses rdesktop [ Searching for packages matching rdesktop... ] [ Colour Code : set unset ] [ Legend: Left column (U) - USE flags from make.conf ] [ : Right column (I) - USE flags packages was installed with ] [ Found these USE variables for net-misc/rdesktop-1.4.1 ] U I - - debug : Tells configure and the makefiles to build for debugging. Effects vary across packages, but generally it will at least add -g to CFLAGS. Remember to set FEATURES=nostrip too - - ipv6 : Adds support for IP version 6 - - oss : Adds support for OSS (Open Sound System) So ... how can I proceed?
