 That solves my problem. Maybe it helps you too.

  Apparently emerge -s isn't sensitive to ACCEPT_KEYWORDS on the command

 Or it could be because Garry used USE=~x86 rather than
 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86. With ACCEPT_KEYWORDS, testing versions are shown.

Haha. I obviously didn't notice. :)

  No you won't. It's not hard masked.

 Well, correct me if I am wrong but it says this:  [-P-] [M~]
 sys-cluster/ganglia-3.0.3 (0)  I thought that the M and the ~ meant it
 was keyworded and masked.  Am I wrong in this?

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoolkit.xml says you're right. So apparently 
equery is wrong. Use eix. ;)

Swaping ghostscript-gpl for ghostscript-esp improved the situation, at least 
now the pdf is readable.  However the fonts are still a little ugly and I 
can't see any option in the cups interface under set printer options for 
embeding the fonts.  I'm offered pdf-general, pdf-banners, pdf-policies

[gentoo-user] ScrollLock and KDE Konsole

2007-06-24 Thread Bertram Scharpf
Hi,


I have a Speedlink Illuminated Keyboard that shines blue
when the ScrollLock key is on. This seems to be kind of
hardcoded.

Unfortunately the KDE Konsole uses the ScrollLock function,
too. Here, it activates/deactivates controll flow similar to
Ctrl-S/-Q in Xterm. So the wunderful blue light will be
switched off every time I open a command line in KDE.

Does anyone know a way to turn this ScrollLock behaviour
off?

Thanks in advance,

Bertram

Try to use the ghostpdf.ppd printer description with your
cups-pdf printer to get the options to embed the fonts. You
should have this file already on your system, on mine it is
/usr/share/ghostscript/8.15/lib/ghostpdf.ppd. 

The steps are:
Webbrowser http://localhost:631
Printers tab, search for the cups-pdf printer 
Modify Printer
Continue
Continue
paste the location of your ghostpdf.ppd in the field Or Provide a PPD File:,
press Modify Printer
Now you can set the printer options.
