Remmina is just a client, I am looking for a remote server that supports resize, faster performance similar to x2go. I know if can be done, as company uses Linux citrix remote desktops and they work very well (but not open source or free)

I am on a quest to find the best remoting tool, I like to have dumb thinclient laptops connect to my powerful desktop computer running gentoo, but have certain needs for a UI. I have been playing around with some remote desktop tools, but I am wondering if there is anything else out there that works ...

Wow, i havn't posted here in a while. Had the same problem, it was due to system libjpeg-turbo being used, using bundled version works.

DO both of these things and give it a try
1. Add bundled-libjpeg-turbo /etc/portage/profile/package.use.mask
2. Add net-im/zoom bundled-libjpeg-turbo to /etc ...

I have made an ebuild for version 4.13.1 of frostwire that is attached to this bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135144 .

Thank you, I should of known.

I know on ubuntu, theres something that deletes the contents of /tmp after rebooting. Is there a program like this for gentoo? Thanks.

Thanks. Is there any alternate sound themes other than default gnome one(there kind of ugly). If not, we should make some gentoo ones. I could help.

Nope. Whatever package it is, it includes the sound files like toggled.wav, generic.wav etc.

dmbtech

If you emerge gnome, and then look under preferences and sound, youll notice some preset sounds. Of course, they don't exist. What package can you emerge to get those sounds? Is there any packages that has any sounds that we could use for that?

Yup, multiple times.

Hey, I have an E1705 laptop, wifi works and everythingon other distros and whatever, but for some reason, during the boot proccess every other boot I would get this:

ipw3945: no version for "ieee80211_wx_get_encodeext" found: kernel tainted.

dmbtech

Well, I kind of feel thats inconveient, and kind of overkill. Like, lets say your a developer, you just want to get this small program installed where there is not ebuild. It would take up way to much time to create an ebuild for it and then store it in an overlay. There should just be a way to do ...

dmbtech

Hey, it would be nice is there was a program like checkinstall for ubuntu, one that would check all the files, and basically turn it into a package and install it, but still keep record of it, so it can easilly be removed or upgraded. Does one exist? How hard would it be to create one? I just don't ...

Im not sure if this is the right forums, but here it goes.

Hey, this is my make.conf file:
CFLAGS="-march=prescott -O2 -pipe -msse3 -fomit-frame-pointer"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
USE="nptl nptlonly ipv6"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"

I know this has been asked a million times, but i havn't seen a straight-recent answer. Is there ANY possible way to sync a palm with thunderbird? I know its possible on windows. Is there any conduit plugin for gnome pilot? Anyway to access gmail at all on the palm pilot? Thanks.

Antway to flash the firmware/flex with any of these programs for razr v3?

--enable-canvas and --enable-svg REALLY need to be default in the use flags, a user should not have to provide them. When a website says it requires firefox 1.5 for svg to work, gentoo users will get all confused, saying they do have 1.5, but it isn't working for the. Canvas and svg are what makes 1 ...

What is the best ipod-like or ipod mp3 player that works well on linux. Im thinking the regular ipod becuase it seems like there is a lot of projects that have to do with the ipod. The thing i don't like about the ipod though is that it doesn't support ogg, but i can still live with that. Any other ...

Well, shouldn't it be in ~x86, because the rest of gnome 2.12 is there? Why is gnome screensaver not there?

dmbtech

Does an ebuild exist for this? Iv seen it in gnome 2.12 but i cannot seem to find it in gentoos portage. Its a screensaver thingy that integrates more into gnome and looks nicer.

dmbtech

Is there a way to emerge gnome with firefox as opposed to mozilla (which most people don't use as much anymore) so we don't have to compile to diferent versions of mozilla? This would save a lot of time and probably also space. I know gargnome uses firefox instead of mozilla?

SOLVED: Add firefox to ...

Just a quick stupid question relating to that faq thing: if you are building from a stage 1 tarball, can you just do emerge system as opposed to emerge -e system? Because that requires me to build things and if one error comes i have to start over.

dmbtech

But the way it sounds, it looks like for now they have it, but eventually they'll get rid of it, i believe there deprecating it. If they do get rid of it, it destros the're choice philosophy.

dmbtech

As much as I love gentoo, if they did drop stage 1 support and bootstrapping, i believe there is a need to fork gentoo. The original intention was so that is was custimizable, optimizable and more, which we can't do with starting with a stage 3 tarball.

dmbtech

I havn't been here in a while, and i can't really find the threads which tell me what happened. What happened to the normal stage 1 tarball that we'd bootstrap? The guide says it isn't supported anymore. Can we still bootstrap? Is there a way i can boostrap and have it build gcc 3.4.x? I prefer to ...
