[gentoo-user] 000299 !!! ERROR: media-libs/mesa-6.4.1-r1 failed.
Today, I decided it was time to try and upgrade my ATI Drivers to see if it would help with the White colored textures in the NWN's CEP Hak's, so I set aside the whole day to get this done. I figured I'd also upgrade Xorg while I was at it so I tried installing Xorg 7 which is working now, but only using the Vesa Driver Module. I cannot get it to recognize 3D yet because I cant even get Mesa to recompile. It keeps asking for glxproto.h, but I cannot find any package that has that file, let alone get it installed so mesa sees it. I know that without Mesa, there really isnt much hope to get any 3D driver running at all. I saw a bug report for this as an Xorg bug, but there was no current workaround in the comments for it. (Bug URL: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115029). Is there a known workaround for this yet? I was going to try to find the file and just stick it in the includes path that its looking for, but that cant be a very good workaround. 000260 i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -c -I. -I../../../include -I../../../include/GL/internal -I../../../src/mesa/main -I../../../src/mesa/glapi -I../../../src/mesa/drivers/dri/common `pkg-config --cflags libdrm` -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -O3 -march=athlon-xp -fPIC -m32 -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPTHREADS -DUSE_EXTERNAL_DXTN_LIB=1 -DIN_DRI_DRIVER -DGLX_DIRECT_RENDERING -DHAVE_ALIAS -DXF86VIDMODE -D_REENTRANT -UIN_DRI_DRIVER -DDEFAULT_DRIVER_DIR='/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri' -DUSE_X86_ASM -DUSE_MMX_ASM -DUSE_3DNOW_ASM -DUSE_SSE_ASM -std=c99 -ffast-math -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPTHREADS -DUSE_EXTERNAL_DXTN_LIB=1 -DIN_DRI_DRIVER -DGLX_DIRECT_RENDERING -DHAVE_ALIAS -DXF86VIDMODE -D_REENTRANT -UIN_DRI_DRIVER -DDEFAULT_DRIVER_DIR='/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri' clientattrib.c -o clientattrib.o 000261 In file included from clientattrib.c:38: 000262 glxclient.h:59:25: GL/glxproto.h: No such file or directory 000263 In file included from clientattrib.c:38: 000264 glxclient.h:257: error: parse error before GLXContextTag 000265 glxclient.h:257: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union 000266 glxclient.h:401: error: parse error before '}' token 000267 In file included from clientattrib.c:39: -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

None with `chrome' in the name at all. *shrug* I have some, but since I installed kde-3.5 I use the only browser for linux that passes the ACID 2 test. Acid 2 test er ? If you mean `konq' I'd been trying to get used to it, but today I got so irritated with that sorry search application I fired up firefox. The search app just dies once its made the circuit of a page. Open a new page and the search thing has to have its throat cut and be born again to start working again. Great little time waster. But on the other hand its the only search app (on a browser) I've seen that allows regex. As luck would have it, a web page is one place I rarely need or want a regex but I'd give up a child to have regex on google. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Remore control of current desktop
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_TightVNC_connecting_to_current_session The wiki thing is a useful tool if you search for things on it. It may not have everything, but it did have what you were lookin for.

This is the way VNC works in windows. Open VNC on a remote machine and you see the exact same thing you see on the local monitor, including any running programs. Under Linux, however, VNC (at least the versions I've tried) opens up a new desktop which is separate from the currently running desktop. This is a neat and useful tool, but it's not what I need. Are there, perhaps, any VNC app which offers this feature under Linux? Or some other way to do it? If it all possible, it needs to be OS independent (take control of a Linux server frrom a client running on Windows and vice versa.) In Gnome, it's called Vino. This option is also available in VNC 4.0 IIRC. (but Vino surely does it) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] Re: How olong should a compile hang on stripping Image Magick
[EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I've run `revdep rebuild' and now re emerging image magick. The build has hung for some time now during the stripping phase. Its set on `montage' for about 15 minues now is this a full hang or can stipping really take that long? sample output: I've now reran revdeps rebuild and got the same result. I backedup one version of imagemagick and tried it by itself with \: emerge -v =imagemagick-6.2.5.2 This version does the same thing. After building and during install it does a stripping session or starts to: [...] gzipping man page: Image::Magick.3pm prepallstrip: strip: i686-pc-linux-gnu-strip --strip-unneeded From there a bunch of libs fly by like these: [...] /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.5/modules-Q16/coders/art.so /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.5/modules-Q16/coders/avi.so [...] on down to this: /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.5/modules-Q16/filters/analyze.so /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7/i686-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so /usr/bin/animate /usr/bin/compare /usr/bin/composite /usr/bin/conjure /usr/bin/convert /usr/bin/display /usr/bin/identify /usr/bin/import /usr/bin/mogrify /usr/bin/montage And there it stops. Both imagemagick-6.2.5.4.ebuild and imagemagick-6.2.5.2.ebuild revdep rebuild shows a herd of broken stuff all depending on (requires libMagick.so.6) And trys to run emerge --oneshot =media-gfx/imagemagick-6.2.5.4 =app-office/karbon-1.4.2 =app-office/krita-1.4.2 =app-office/kword-1.4.2-r5 It all ends as above.

Re: [gentoo-user] Remore control of current desktop
As stated before, x11vnc is by far the easiest system to set this up with. When you have an x session running, you can run x11vnc (that's all you need to type) and then connect from anywhere. You can even run the command over an ssh connection. My favorite way of using this is through putty, just forward local port 5900 to the remote host, login to the remote host, start up x11vnc and then run a vncviewer connected to localhost:0, works great.
