Usually when I click on a video in Firefox I get a black screen that says
(no picture). Any idea what I need to emerge to get videos working?
Thanks!

Any idea why my tcprobe isn't supporting dvd reading? I have libdvdread
installed:
# tcprobe -H 10 -i /dev/dvd
(dvd_reader.c) no support for DVD reading configured - exit.
(iodump.c) unable to open directory /dev/dvd

It's a Canon A75. Yeah, you're right, I don't think it is mass storage.

I've been researching getting my camera to work and I have a few questions.
I'm running udev and kernel 2.6.15.1.
1) For USB mass storage to work do I still need SCSI emulation or does udev
remove that requirement?
2) If so do I still need to pass the kernel parameter hdc=ide-scsi?

Something I did caused sound to quit working. On starting KDE I get an
error about /dev/dsp missing. It might have been caused by me setting
RC_DEVICE_TARBALL to no in /etc/conf.d/rc, but I set it back to yes
and it didn't help. Thanks in advance for the help.

Why is it trying to access an old version of python? I removed the

When I first upgraded to 3.4 I was unaware of the new split ebuilds,
