kdebase depends on kdelibs which depends on arts which depends on qt which

If you want to develop plugins for certain programs you also need those progs.

 full ACK with what you've mentioned about rescue system and such, but in my
 case I'm using 2.4 rescue disks only which happen to have reiserfs support

from my experience the only rescuedisc you find in case of an emergency is the 
oldest ;-)

 (i.e. Knoppix). Also I found that reiserfs performs much better than ext3
 on the computers where I've tried it. And performance is one of my top
 concerns for everyday use on my laptop.

Don't know about performance but my ext3 don't feel slower than reiserfs, 
espacially as on most modern laptops more and more ide work is done from the 
processor and so every filesystem is slower afaik.

 So I'd like to give reiserfs a try on the laptop, too. Best regards,

Do it if you want, but my bad experiences with reiserfs where on my 
every_days_work laptop where its not possible to add another disc for 
temporary backup...

 my best guess is that when you updated your baselayout, you overwrote your

 /dev/root is just a symlink to your root partition in your /dev directory,
 you can point whatever you like to the actual partition (on my box, it's
 the usual /dev/hda3).

While you are at fixing /dev/fstab you should consider using labels (if using 
ext[23]). That way you don't get problems if you are using another hd before 
your gentoo-hd sometime...

Thats because Noatun uses plugins. From which information should the

Note: You can use other playlists. I am currently using hayes, which shows the

 i can't right-click to get file info, so if the song sucks, i can't even

 this thing so great? 'cause i just don't see it.

This is not an issue with the right playlist-plugin. (see above)

 also, can someone explain to me why arts exists in the first place?  please
 excuse the ignorance, but since other window managers (windowmaker, gnome,
 ion etc.) seem to use audio just fine, why is arts even required?

Because sometime kde decided to use aRts.
Because its still a great system.
Because we have to stay binary-compatible till kde4.

 please excuse the bitchyness, but i'm just so frustrated with this thing
 and comments like the above which don't answer the initial question
 concerning the audio lag in flash.

But aRts is the reason for this lag. Normally (if you do not reconfigure your

Depends on what you want to do:

Theres openmosix, where you have multiple pc's exchanging jobs without the 
user taking notice. I think www.openmosix.org is your friend, there's also a 
openmisix kernel in gentoo...

Then you can use MPI, which doesn't require a patched kernel, but still lets

And there are services for distributed computing like distcc. The simpliest

I once had a p60 and a p133 together as an openmosix-cluster but that was with

Perhaps you could start a login manager inside vnc if your were root since

Default size is the size of the display the server has started, by default 
1024x768. You need to modify the executable vncserver to change this value. 
Don't worry, its a perl(?)-script and the resolution is rather at the top. If 
your client system runs KDE you can also use Internet/Remote Desktop 
Connection which is also capable of scaling the image to your (resized) 
window size...

On Thursday 12 June 2003 22:33, daniel wrote:
 after kde3.1 came out, i decided that i might as well try out noatun again
 (hated it before, so i went back to xmms).  and while it crashed *less*
 than it had before, the usability was still off...

Really?

 xmms is so simple,
 ctrl+f1 to get to its desktop, b to skip the song.  noatun wasn't
 intuative at all and didn't have any shortcut keys like that.  what's more,

Ctrl+Fx goes to the xth Desktop. Still you have to focus the right application 
(unless you have only xmms on that desktop).

If you load the plugin keyz (shipped with noatun) you have global shortcuts = 
Controlling noatun without even moving the hands towards the mouse or 
switching desktops. Just press Ctrl+Alt+- for the next song.

I still think its more intuitive than xmms/winamp. And you don't need to 
install an extra package if you want to control your noatun from the systray.

 the program's inability to load song data from all the songs in the
 playlist without chunking the sound is just dumb.

Did you set your aRts to have realtimepriority? Otherwise you will have 
clicks. But you would get these two if xmms worked like aRts...

 and xmms supports winamp skins (very cool) so i'm stickin' with that

noatun supports winamp skins too...

 artsdsp xmms option mentioned on this thread... it worked like a charm. 
Good.

One more disadvantage of xmms: You are stuck with one type of Playlist where 
you select the files you want to hear. I am currently using the 
hayes-playlist in noatun where I see my folders and files in a tree and can 
select which I want to hear. What happens in xmms if you insert a whole dir, 
delete one file and decide later on you want to hear this song? You have to 
find all files from that dir and readd the dir or readd the file you want. In 
hayes you only have to select the file... Thats what I call intuitive...

 Squirrelmail acts just like any other MUA, (mail client), communicating

Squirrel communicates with imap(4) only (without ssl) but yes, the place of

 No guarantees, because I haven't tested it, but can't you put 'unset
 WANT_AUTOMAKE_whatever' etc in /root/.bashrc and have them unset that
 way?

If unset would allow WANT_* it would be ok, otherwise I would have to look

 Since you are using ALSA, did you remove all sound support from the
 kernel?  Also, did you rebuild a kernel without rebuilding ALSA?  That's
 all I can think of.

Do _not_ remove sound support from the kernel!!! Its needed by Alsa! Just 
don't build kernelmodules for any soundcard, thats a big difference. As I 
know Alsa needs the soundcore module which is build when you say 
soundsupport(M) in the kernel...

Either use VNC or krdc/krfb...

vnc has is an own Xserver so you have to start vncserver and your local XFree

krfb makes the current XFree-desktop available to vnc and (possibly) some

Good thing about ext3 is that its backward compatible. you can still mount it

formating it...

 about home i will have it on the same partition at first and then when
 I'm sure everything is working use the partition I'm sharing with the

Sounds logical. Just be sure to use ext3 as journalling filesystem and not

kde and gnome all have big source-files and the linking processes involve a

Yes, kde is huge. But it isn't simply a wm for a server to open three xterms

I wouldn't start kde if I need something fast and tiny either. But I start it

Two fast solutions (I know its too late):

Even faster (assuming you have the special menu Preferences inside your k-menu

Run the System Notifications Module from the Preferences menu. So you won't

 This assumes that the port is even built to work against apache 2.

But this also assumes that mod_mp3 works with apache2. Its homepage says it 
doesn't...
Its configure checks for apxs which isn't existing.

Just from my head: distcc has some kind of quality_of_service or similar. It 
checks which server is responding fast, which has the shortest compile-times 
and so on. I think it even doesn't send files if a server has a load higher 
than a certain value... Or perhaps its a network-problem?

I've got a little problem: I installed gentoo (latest release), emerged kde 
and gpg. Now when I have a mail in KMail which is signed by an unknown key I 
get the following error-message before the real mail:
snip
Insecure $ENV{PATH} while running setgid at /usr/libexec/gnupg/gpgkeys_mailto 
line 131, STDIN line 10.
/snip

It doesn't load the needed keys:( (have to do this with kgpg myself)

What am I missing? Do you need more information?

Thanks in advance,

Arnold
