To get adobe-flash work under 64-bit Firefox or Chromium we need nspluginwrapper, fine.
And yet under 64bit Opera flash content with out nspluginwrapper appears just fine. Why is that?

Anyone else getting "fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly" when cloning zen-sources as outlined on the first page of this thread?
Solution: change repository location to git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/zen-sources.git

Got it resolved the 'Gentoo' way:
echo "<media-tv/mythtv-0.21_p18314-r1" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
emerge -DuNa world gave me error that nuvexport wants the older mythtv version.
emerge -C nuvexport solved the downgrade dilemma.
notHerbert thx for help.

And set it in your make.conf using EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS.

In my case it doesn't work. eix -uc shows upgrades but emerge -pvuDN --with-bdeps=y shows zero 0 packages to be merged.

Last time I synced mythtv-0.21_p18314 wasn't hard masked, so unless it became hard masked today, it must be something else you emerged lately that's downgrading it. genlop --list --date 3 days ago

Since some many Gentoo installation have issue with e2fsprogs, com_err, and ss being blocked I'm wondering if anyone has asked what is/was the root cause? Bad programing on the development side? Did we miss some kind of news, warning, update? Too many packages or bad combination of installed ...

If you mask transcode to it's current version, does mythtv still want to downgrade?
In package.mask I've included >media-video/transcode-1.0.5-r3 and portage still wants to downgrade mythtv

I'm a little confused by portage downgrading mythtv package when updating system and the same time upgrading when emerging the same package.:

emerge -Dp world
[ebuild U ] media-video/transcode-1.0.7_rc1 [1.0.5-r3]

Got it fixed.
Changed package mask at /etc/portage/package.mask

>=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-1.0.9700

to

>=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-97.00

Switched today to gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r3 and had to re-emerge nvidia drivers to reflect new kernel.

I can't emerge apcupsd, neither version 3.10.17 or 3.10.18

the program emerge fine, but doesn't install any /usr/bin/apcupsd executable. there's no trace of it in the emerge log (scrolling the console, the last things it points out are the files it installs)

Obviously, trying to run the init ...

That's exactly what I've done, CTRL+z, edit Makefile, fg

Would you be able to add [SOLVED] to subject? Other wise we may have site admin chasing us.

p4r0l3 wrote:Alright, first I extracted the wine source to a new directory.
Code: Select all
cd wine
./configure
cd dlls/opengl32
nano Makefile
Find EXTRALIBS and add a -lGLU

then,
Code: Select all
cd ..
cd ..
make depend
make
make install
If all goes well, you should have a working copy of wine installed!

It works. Thx!

Would you mind sharing your steps? I've been trying to get Wine compile with opengl support, and it unfortunately fails.
