Thanks for the info. That's good to know and it sounds like you're not doing much of anything AMD64 specific? Also, if you are using the newest version of Wine have you ever tried setting it up from scratch with your apps instead of relying on existing .wine directories? It seems to me that the wine developers often want it both ways. They say that an app works, but it turns out it works only with either an older version of Wine or a new version of Wine but only with an older, prexisting .wine directory. When I go to set up the same app on a new machine from scratch I cannot duplicate what the AppDB says. Just my experience. Thanks again! Cheers, Mark �ιν’�¦w�%�Λl�ιν’�+�f’�)ΰ�+- well... i have never tried to set it up from scratch...so i don't know what happens... winecfg doesn't help? what do you mean amd64 specific? signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Today I got this:
$ equery d portaudio
[ Searching for packages depending on portaudio... ]
app-office/openoffice-2.2.0
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/equery", line 1754, in ?
cmd.perform(local_opts)
File "/usr/bin/equery", line 1184, in perform
print "(" + \
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'join'
I had a quick look at /usr/bin/equery but I couldn't see anything
obvious. Is equery broken, or do I need to rebuild something?
Hmm... you don't mention which version of gentoolkit you have merged, but
here, with the newest 0.2.4_pre4 (merged today, but it might be a few
days old as I hadn't updated in a week or so), I get something similar.
portaudio is NOT merged here, but here's my output:
equery d portaudio
[ Searching for packages depending on portaudio... ]
media-sound/timidity++-2.13.2-r4
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/equery", line 1754, in ?
cmd.perform(local_opts)
File "/usr/bin/equery", line 1184, in perform
print "(" + \
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'join'
I have timidity++ merged, but not OOo, which might explain that
difference.
FWIW, portage was updated today as well: 2.1.2.4.
I tried querying something else merged, no problem, tried something else
NOT merged, no problem there either. Portaudio, however, problem.
I did a quick search of bugs, didn't find anything looking like it, so
you may wish to file one. Please reply with the bug number so I can add
my report too, plus CC and see how it's resolved.

I coudn't find you bug, can you show the complete path? If you are getting this error: --- ACCESS VIOLATION SUMMARY --- LOG FILE = "/var/log/sandbox/sandbox-x11-drivers_-_nvidia-drivers-1.0.9755-r1-26242.log" open_wr: /usr/src/linux-2.6.20-gentoo-r3/-.gcda open_wr: /usr/src/linux-2.6.20-gentoo-r3/-.gcda then use FEATURES="-sandbox" emerge nvidia-drivers to compile the drivers. This occurred to me in 2.6.20 kernels. thx... with FEATURES="-sandbox",nvidia-drivers compile without problems... but i can't undestand why you get these errors without adding FEATURES="-sandbox"... :/ the link for the bug report: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171574 -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list

/usr/src/linux points to the correct kernel sources... :/ and i have run: make oldconfig && make prepare but i get the same errors when trying to compile nvidia-drivers... i filed a bug report at bug.gentoo.org -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
