I tried installing sun's jdk and I get this so I removed it and tried

I wanted to upgrade postgresql, but it said:

so started java-config and got the same error...
Also I noticed a lot of ebuilds want to change permissions on things and
with the new 2.6 kernel it doesn't work because the new kernel uses a :
instead of a . between the user and group. There a way to add
compatibility to the new kernel for the old way?
I'm also running 2.6 on a couple of boxes (not the one this error occured
on) and it's not a kernel issue but one of ch{own,grp}:

Perhaps a regression? Here's the patch (from portage) Yea, that was it. Odd that I have the same problem with 0.6.8 and 0.6.9. I may look at the this again when I have time. I just did a fresh install following the instructions for getting OpenPGP working with KMail from the Aegypten homepage yesterday... i noticed that it didnt work with gpgme = 0.4.0, so after a downgrade to 0.3.9 and USE=-gtk -ncurses emerge pinentry, the pinentry-qt dialog popped up fine inside KMail.. i think you have to have the USE flags set, otherwise it always defaults to trying to use the ncurses interface (the instructions on aegypten says to ./configure --without-curses --without-gtk, equivalent of setting those USE flags) --mike pgp0.pgp Description: signature

Create a group and add have them all as members of the group set group rw on the directory. i did that, but then if a user creates a directory inside that directory, it has permissions of 755, not 775. so that only works one level deep. if i could force nfs and to write files with g+w permissions, then i could abandon ssh and just use samba, nfs, and ftp, but i don't think you can do that... i believe you can just set the sticky bit on the topdir, and all subdirs will inherit the same permissions - --mike -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/Bb2SzK7WDkEewTARAnG0AJ0VJ4Jeh8XEOYUee5Z/wG+D86PtjQCeNPSV 97+eVPZVgc0RtKu+jynxpw0= =lUq8 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Laptop + Gentoo

Not the latest model, but reasonably useable (aiming for somewhere around 800 MHz, 256 meg). I'm using Gentoo on my desktop machine and I like it. I wonder if any of you have opinions on Gentoo on a laptop. I realize that the usual set-aside-a-day-to-compile-kde rules apply, but other than that, is Gentoo a wise choise for laptops? My theory is that as Gentoo is very customizable, and as you _have_ to compile your own kernel, the odds that you're gonna get your hardware working is good. Any comments? Or does anyone have good experiences with other distros on laptops? I've been running gentoo on my crappy ole Trogon P2-333 128MB RAM for about a year now.. it took about 3 days to compile the system, but it runs it really well, better than any other distro i've tried on it (redhat, slak).. sure KDE/X is a bit of a memory hog, but even with 128MB it runs smooth enough for me...
