Maybe Telegram[1] fits your needs. You'd need:

- The appropriate client on the phone side.
- Telegram CLI [2] on the computer.
- A little shell script, such as (usage: script USER MESSAGE)

Running easytag from a terminal emulator gives you any further hints
about the error?

By the way, a good pygtk based tag-editor I could recommend is exfalso
(I would also recommend picard, but it's qt based...).

 As an example, my /etc/locale.gen file looks like this:

 en_US ISO-8859-1
 en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8

 and my /etc/env.d/02locale file looks like:

You don't need gnome-settings-daemon. Just GTK+ and some engines
(depending on which gtk theme you'll be using), edit ~/.gtkrc-2.0[1] and
you'll be done.

Yes, you should create a new ebuild with an additional epatch line
aiming to downloaded b.g.o. patch, and put it on an overlay (if not, changes 
will
dissappear when syncing portage tree next time).

Look at the cmucl ebuild source, and you'll see it's pretty straightforward.

Hi.

First of all, It's not encouraged to use stumpwm-cvs ebuild as it's
obsolete [1].

And regarding cmucl build error, there's a bug report on b.g.o. with a

Depending on which ipod generation, they're two great options:

- Rockbox. Open source firmware: allows you to play many file formats (flac, 
ogg, mp3...), play doom, gameboy games... etc. You can add songs just with 
"cp", there's no need to go thru libgpod (of course you can do it so, to be 
able to keep on using apple firmware... on rockbox, just use the tagcache 
feature). That's what I'm using with my 5G. I find the GUI much more attractive 
and informative (especially using pjulius builds and wps: various patches 
including audioscrobbler support, album art...). There's no video playback.

- IpodLinux. The aim is to be able to run an open source operating system on 
the device.  

With both you keep the apple firmware and can choose firmwares with a 
bootloader.

Didn't know about '--digest' switch... As I'm playing with some CVS/SVN

Yes, It was definitely a bad bad answer by me. The "Files listed in the
manifest do not exist" claims for a resync and not for a redigest.
I rarely has sync issues . Whenever I had digest issues they were related to 
SVN/CVS overlays,
so redigesting is safe there, AFAIK.

Sorry, I meant x11-base/xorg-server-1.0.2-r3. I unmasked xorg modular to
try it, but forgot to clean /etc/portage/package.unmask when it reached
~x86 (which is what I'm using).

Yes, I thought so, because I did an --> emerge --depclean

Probably you won't get any font rendering related trouble. Let's see.

My latest xorg-server update was:

.-(~)-([EMAIL
 PROTECTED])-
`--> genlop -lu|tail -n 200|grep -i xorg-server
 Wed Apr 12 20:51:14 2006 <<< x11-base/xorg-server-1.0.2-r3
 Wed Apr 12 20:51:14 2006 >>> x11-base/xorg-server-1.0.99.2

Right now I don't have the time (gotta do some work) to emerge
"="xorg-server-1.0.2-r3 and see what happens... But that's  next on my
to-do tasks.

Ok. Same behaviour here (not solved).

Are you using nvidia proprietary driver? If so, and you switch to 'nv' driver
problem is gone, isn't?

Xgl does not have this problem... 

I use fvwm, so that's not an gnome related issue (furthermore, I use kde
based apps, and that weird behaivour also is reproducing)...

Are you using Xorg modular?

Try with --> sudo emerge --ask --update --verbose --deep --tree world

eix is giving me the same result as yours, but ls
/usr/portage/www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin/ shows up
mozilla-firefox-bin-1.5.ebuild

I used the bin package before compiling mozilla-firefox (~x86 here).

-(/home/joham_luis)---([EMAIL

emerge -pv mozilla-firefox-bin

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Deberías postear esto en la lista en español, o bien hacerlo en inglés.
Además no se entiende muy bien la pregunta, elabórala un poco más. A qué te
refieres con "ver la partición de windows a través de gentoo como con otras
muchas distribuciones"? Qué escritorio pretendes utilizar para eso?

I told him to post it at spanish mailing list, or translating it into

i think it's not much understandable.
