Thanks, this worked. It seems like it all broke when I tried using the updateKDEsvn to update my whole kde svn. I did not have these problems before running that script.

You should run an emerge sync && gensync kde-live.

I have done that many times, doesn't help. I guess something is broken, just don't know what.

I haven't been able to compile some of the packages lately, e.g. amarok fails with the following strange looking error:

Has anyone figured out yet the OpenGL version problem? I have Radeon M9 and I keep getting this:


OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.2.1)


There's a bug report here: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug ...

Thanks, that solved the problem.

Do not whine here, just use another livecd to install gentoo. If you want someone to blame then go to bugzilla(http://bugs.gentoo.org) and file bugs, I am sure you will complain to the right person then. Maybe you can even provide patches and make Gentoo better.

Sorry, I did not mean to whine. I ...

Same problem here. Trying to install from SCSI DVD drive to a system with nforce3 SATA. Need to have both SCSI and SATA.

might I suggest you delete the source from your previous install attempts and try again? the patch may be applying again even though it's already there.

delete /var/tmp/portage/kdeartwork.. and try to re-emerge.

the patch is supposed to be 3.3.1 compatible. good luck :)

Well, I guess emerge ...

Did someone fix the kdeartwork patch and get it compile? I still couldn't get it to compile, since after patching, plastik.cpp contains two "case KPE_ListViewBranch: {" lines.

It seems that the original author of the patches is now installing kde 3.3.1, so hopefully he will get the patches fixed ...

Does Ati Radeon driver works now fine ?

no, it only contains security fixes.
The problem is with the ati-drivers, not with xorg (correct me if I'm wrong :D)

I don't have ati-drivers, but I get X lockups with 6.8.0 if I play enemy territory or run glxgears. Now I am again back to 6.7.0 and ...

Yeah, I don't use xcompmgr...

I tried right now to play UT2004 with xcompmgr off and It's running perfectly (nvidia binary driver).

I'm using the ATI DRI drivers of xorg-x11.

Can't really use any of the 6.8 snapshots since playing Enemy Territory always hangs my notebook (with Radeon Mobility 9000) at some point. This never happens with 6.7.

So maybe it is stable on 2D, but not on 3D.

Any ideas?

Do a emerge sync and try again. Caleb forgot to add those 3.2.2 patches, but they are now added.

There is also a bug report of this problem of not being able to use dmix device for artsd:

If you want to have this working, go show it your votes

I was searching for info about making artsd work with dmix and found out this Alsa wiki page:

On bottom half of the page there is a hack to make artsd work with dmix, but it looks too much a hack for my liking, so I haven't tried it yet. It would ...

I recently tried to play JA2 and noticed the same problem. It must be 2 years since I played it last time, and back then it was working pretty well.

If you use wine, you don't need the linux beta binaries. But I don't understand why someone would like to run it using wine when there is also a native version available, although the binaries are expired at the moment.

Anyway, I don't know if MOHAA works on wine at all. When I tried a year ago, it ...

Hmm, so this is not a problem only with the kde cvs. I have exactly the same problem, but I run KDE CVS HEAD. Few days ago it worked without problems. Yesterday I updated kdebase and thought that it broke kdm.

Can you open kde session from within kdm with this new kdebase? I always end up with twm session if I select kde from the menu. I already sent my kdm log to Ossi.

2.6.0-test1 works without problems with DRI (at least for radeon 9000 mobility that I have). You don't need to emerge xfree-drm, because 2.6 kernel series itself contains the DRM modules that you need to select when you compile the kernel (it's all under the character devices on kernel config).
