[gentoo-user] Netbeans, java programming, swing gui-builder?
Hi, Does anyone on this list have experience with java (swing) gui-builders and what would you recommend, if so? It seems Netbeans is the only option in Portage that I can find, are there other options? I'm looking for an easy way to build a reasonably advanced gui. Best regards Peter K

FYI it seems some people count the age of Gentoo differently: http://www.gentoo.org/news/20090722-anniversary.xml Best, Sebastian

It would figure that some in the Linux community would consider a sub 1.0 release as the birthday of a project :). Start flame mail here:

I had similar problems on my sister's PC. First, thanks to all who replied. All the answers were helpful and the lightbulb is slowly getting brighter :) I finally looked up HDMI on Wikipedia. Software is driven by hardware and this new machine is the only HDMI equipment I've ever used, so I never had any need to understand it before now. Now it's clear to me why there are two different sound devices on this machine -- HDMI is a completely different animal and needs different harware and drivers. So, thanks for clearing that up for me. Maybe someday I'll actually want to use the HDMI hardware for something ;) My solution was to edit /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf, and change defaults.ctl.card and defaults.pcm.card from 0 to 1. I must have the syntax wrong in my alsa.conf, but I finally edited /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf and changed the default values to 1. Now alsamixer comes up with the right mixer displayed, thanks. All apps but audacious still use the wrong mixer/card in spite of the new defaults, though. I'm finally understanding the value of pulseaudio as a side-effect of buying this new computer. Now I'm recompiling everything with the pulse useflag, something I thought I'd never do :/ I think I can use pulse to solve this problem IIUC. Here goes :)

You were sub-1.0 when you were born, why not Gentoo? Besides, the 1999 birthday reflects the registration of the gentoo.org domain and thus when the project was officially named Gentoo; otherwise it would have been 10 years old in 2010, not 2009.

Here goes :) As some of the features of pulseaudio are quite nice I set pulseaudio in make.conf and build everything using that flag new. First pulseaudio worked as it should, I was able to listen to 3 songs and a Youtube video. Then the mixer from kde segfaulted and the sound was gone as pulseaudio then prefered HDMI over my real soundcard. Even with an hour of debugging I was unable to fix pulseaudio so now I switch back. I hope your results are better then mine. Greetings Sebastian Beßler signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
