this is about private emails. emails in mailing lists should be short and concise. i wonder what the big archive-sites think about this.. What do they think about it now when people quote 100+ lines of text in order to give a one-sentence reply? I don't think the addition of a few tags and a bit of metadata is really a major problem. What about people who can't even use a proper mail client that quote other people's message properly ? -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-amd64] xine - Station Agent - libdvdcss
Hi, I remember something about the 'dvd.css_decryption_method' setting in xine. Its on the 'media' tab in the xine configuration dialog box (you have to the configuration experience level to master of the known universe on the GUI tab to see it.). It has three possible settings key, disc and title. I think it defaults to 'key', which works most of the time. Give the movie a go with it set to 'disc' or 'title'. I have got movies to play with 'title' when they wouldn't play with 'key'. Hope that helps!

I didn't suggest "getting rid" of them. I'm saying that it's true that when email, lists, and newsgroups first started, they didn't handle formatted text.

Mensagem First, please turn off HTML. Many on FLOSS (Free, Libre, and Open Source Software) type lists consider HTML posts the mark of spammers and malware authors, and may kill filter it or simply refuse to reply. I reply, but I make it a point of asking folks to please turn it off, and may not reply (and indeed, killfile) future posts if the HTML remains. I know that many share this opinion, and although I don't want to start a flame war, I do think there are some valid counter points in favor of html. Everyone is of course free to filter content based on his or her own preferences. However most of the reasons given against posting html aren't really all that strong. In fact the only thing http://www.emailreplies.com/ suggests is that recipients "*might* only be able to receive plain text emails." It goes on to note: "Most email clients however... are able to receive HTML and rich text messages." It's pretty rare that a modern email client can't deal with html. I would argue that the very few desktops not using some flavor of GUI should not force a limiting "least common denominator" type policy. yeah. lets get rid of the minorities. Even the two reasons listed in the above reply don't stand up very well to logical reasoning, it's obvious the OP was neither a spammer nor a malware author, filtering all html email on the basis of those two reasons alone is akin to throwing out the baby with the bath water.

Re: [gentoo-amd64] Re: Multiple X with multiple Keyboards
Hello, As it happens, I JUST stumbled across something covering /exactly/ what you are wanting to do! It's with the 6.9/7.0 xorg, so you'll have to be running at least the betas for that, but it looks fairly simple to configure, after that. Simply setup layouts (and the usual subordinate sections as necessary, note that compatible video cards is a must) for each station's config in xorg.conf, then test each layout using the described procedure, and then either start each server manually (using the command string given) as needed, or setup your display manager as described. good grief! The new xorgs came just in time :D Thank you. That is exactly what I was looking for. Kind regards, Christian -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list

I think permissions are the most likely problem; that'd cause mt to be unable to open the device - many utilities don't differentiate between being unable to open something and that something not existing.

You should some entries where the kernel detectes the drive (by model number) and assigns it a device name (st0). As an example, look for your primary hard drive entry (hda, hde, sda etc). There should be a similar entry for st0 after it detects the tape drive. If not, that most likely means the kernel is missing some required driver(s).

If so, that's a problem, but it would appear it's saying there is no such device, which indicates a problem with your device system. It could be anything from not having that device driver compiled, to not having it loaded if it's built as a kernel module, to having it loaded but it not finding the device so it doesn't create a node, to some funniness with udev, such that the device node isn't created, or is created in a different location. As I don't have such a device, it's a bit difficult to tell, from here, but one think you could do would be a "find /dev/ -name st0". That would at least tell you whether udev put the device in a subdir instead of the main /dev. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.

[gentoo-amd64] gcc compile failed after 2005.1-r1 instalation
Title: Mensagem I did a new instalattion of Gentoo 2005.r1 (AMD64). After the basic stage3 instalation, kernel compilation and reboot, everything was fine. I then decided to recompile all: Code: emerge -e world and I get an error when it gets to compile gcc Code: ./xgcc -B./ -B/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ -isystem /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/include -isystem /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/sys-include -L/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.4-r1/work/build/gcc/../ld -O2 -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wold-style-definition -isystem ./include -fPIC -DHAVE_SYSLOG -g -DHAVE_GTHR_DEFAULT -DIN_LIBGCC2 -D__GCC_FLOAT_NOT_NEEDED -D_LIBC_PROVIDES_SSP_ -shared -nodefaultlibs -Wl,--soname=libgcc_s.so.1 -Wl,--version-script=libgcc/32/libgcc.map -o 32/libgcc_s.so.1.tmp -m32 libgcc/32/_muldi3.o libgcc/32/_negdi2.o libgcc/32/_lshrdi3.o libgcc/32/_ashldi3.o libgcc/32/_ashrdi3.o libgcc/32/_cmpdi2.o libgcc/32/_ucmpdi2.o libgcc/32/_floatdidf.o libgcc/32/_floatdisf.o libgcc/32/_fixunsdfsi.o libgcc/32/_fixunssfsi.o libgcc/32/_fixunsdfdi.o libgcc/32/_fixdfdi.o libgcc/32/_fixunssfdi.o libgcc/32/_fixsfdi.o libgcc/32/_fixxfdi.o libgcc/32/_fixunsxfdi.o libgcc/32/_floatdixf.o libgcc/32/_fixunsxfsi.o libgcc/32/_fixtfdi.o libgcc/32/_fixunstfdi.o libgcc/32/_floatditf.o libgcc/32/_clear_cache.o libgcc/32/_enable_execute_stack.o libgcc/32/_trampoline.o libgcc/32/__main.o libgcc/32/_absvsi2.o libgcc/32/_absvdi2.o libgcc/32/_addvsi3.o libgcc/32/_addvdi3.o libgcc/32/_subvsi3.o libgcc/32/_subvdi3.o libgcc/32/_mulvsi3.o libgcc/32/_mulvdi3.o libgcc/32/_negvsi2.o libgcc/32/_negvdi2.o libgcc/32/_ctors.o libgcc/32/_ffssi2.o libgcc/32/_ffsdi2.o libgcc/32/_clz.o libgcc/32/_clzsi2.o libgcc/32/_clzdi2.o libgcc/32/_ctzsi2.o libgcc/32/_ctzdi2.o libgcc/32/_popcount_tab.o libgcc/32/_popcountsi2.o libgcc/32/_popcountdi2.o libgcc/32/_paritysi2.o libgcc/32/_paritydi2.o libgcc/32/_stack_smash_handler.o libgcc/32/_divdi3.o libgcc/32/_moddi3.o libgcc/32/_udivdi3.o libgcc/32/_umoddi3.o libgcc/32/_udiv_w_sdiv.o libgcc/32/_udivmoddi4.o libgcc/32/unwind-dw2.o libgcc/32/unwind-dw2-fde-glibc.o libgcc/32/unwind-sjlj.o libgcc/32/gthr-gnat.o libgcc/32/unwind-c.o -lc && rm -f libgcc_s_32.so && if [ -f 32/libgcc_s.so.1 ]; then mv -f 32/libgcc_s.so.1 32/libgcc_s.so.1.backup; else true; fi && mv 32/libgcc_s.so.1.tmp 32/libgcc_s.so.1 && ln -s 32/libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s_32.so /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.4/../../../libc.so when searching for -lc /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.4/../../../libc.a when searching for -lc /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.so when searching for -lc /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.a when searching for -lc /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lc collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [32/libgcc_s_32.so] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.4-r1/work/build/gcc' make[2]: *** [stmp-multilib] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.4-r1/work/build/gcc' make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.4-r1/work/build/gcc' make: *** [profiledbootstrap] Error 2 !!!

AMD's docs on the 754 pin CPUs says up to 3 unbuffered DIMMs and 4 registered DIMMs. So yes it does take both. I'd be surprised if the socket 939 doesn't take both types too, but I don't have the information at the moment. -- Ian. EOM -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
