I looked at Lilypond myself a week or two ago, and installed their binary package under OS X. Whilst glancing at their documentation again now the wording I'm finding is not so strong, I had the impression that Lilypond was a bit finicky and difficult to compile. Again, I can't immediately find the reference, but I thought that it was sufficiently demanding in terms of environment and versioning that they provided a VM for development purposes. I would guess that the fault is simply versioning. I would suggest filing a bug, but also trying to resolve this though the Lilipond IRC channel /or mailing list - Lilipond's developers may well have seen this before. Stroller.
[gentoo-user] WPA Supplicant
I'm trying to get wireless working reliably on my laptop. I have followed the documentation, but still have a lot of questions . . . especially since it only seems to work sometimes. First, I'm using WPA Supplicant without the gui tools. Second, I'm in NYC and there are a lot of networks I can use around town. Third, Is there a way I can control the services I use from the Grub menu? Since the laptop has a wireless card and an RJ45 jack, I'd like to be able boot and not use one or the other. Since I know if I'm not physically connected to a network, there's really no reason to even try eth0. Forth, The problem. I'm not sure how wpa_supplicant works or how it should work. The wpa_supplicant man page gives a few examples on how to run it, but when I look at the process list it seems to be run by another program called wpa_cli. There's also a shell script in /etc/wpa/supplicant that looks like it can start or stop it with CONNECT or DISCONNECT. 1) Do I need to enter networks in wpa_supplicant.conf or does wpa_supplicant scan for networks and connect to whatever's available? 2) If I have multiple networks available how does wpa_supplicant choose which to connect to and can I specify which one I want? 3) How should wpa_supplicant be started, stopped and restarted? What should be used for this: wpa_supplicant, wpa_cli, or wpa_cli.sh? I don't see anything in /etc/init.d for that, but it looks like netmount may be doing it. 4) The documentation doesn't say to, but the way I got wireless working is by creating a link net.wlan0 - net.lo in the /etc/init.d directory. Is this correct? I think that's why it's starting automatically when I boot too, because I never added it with rc-update so netmount must be picking it up. 5) This is the most puzzling thing. When wpa_supplicant starts even though I get a inet address I can't always get to the internet. Why does the panel applet says I'm connected and ifconfig shows an inet address but firefox and ping can't reach a site like yahoo or google? 6) For networks where I have a password, should that go in wpa_supplicant.conf as plain text or should it be encrypted? I think I have more questions, but this is good for starters. Thanks, dhk

Re: [gentoo-user] WPA Supplicant

I have followed the documentation, but still have a lot of questions . . . especially since it only seems to work sometimes. First, I'm using WPA Supplicant without the gui tools. Second, I'm in NYC and there are a lot of networks I can use around town. Third, Is there a way I can control the services I use from the Grub menu? Since the laptop has a wireless card and an RJ45 jack, I'd like to be able boot and not use one or the other. Since I know if I'm not physically connected to a network, there's really no reason to even try eth0. Forth, The problem. I'm not sure how wpa_supplicant works or how it should work. Wicd answers all of these questions. It connects via eth0 if a cable is connected, otherwise it takes care of multiple wireless networks. It avoids all the hassles with wpa_supplicant too. -- Neil Bothwick B?#$^f, said Pooh, as line noise garbled his transmission. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Although I like the idea very much, I never tried this myself. I only know that Al posted some questions here and told about his plan, and I see that he wrote the wiki article. Wonko
