I have the same thing. Have you had any success in fixing this?

I can't help on the error, but if you just want openoffice, emerge openoffice-bin.

I have been largely unsuccessful in getting openoffice to emerge, and have given up myself. Use flags, and other options in make.conf are generally the problem according to many of the posts here. I find it is much ...

one possible solution: qcad

emerge qcad

then

emerge qcad-parts

Not very user friendly, but with some effort, should work

Thanks,

worked for me too.

Forums are great.

Can you explain how to do this?

I have the error and don't have a clue how to do this.

Thanks

I'm not familiar with this particluar TA. Is it internal or external. If it is external, I may be able to help.

hielvc,

Thanks. I got your script and it works flawlessly.

Unfortunately I have been working through an upgrade on my test bed machine and haven't got this working yet. I think I'm getting close to being able to try it though. I'll update when I get it installed.

I'm having a couple of problems with the script.

1. When i do an emwrap.sh -set, or any other tool chain update, i recieve an error indicating that the script can't find gcc-3.3.6. The current gcc is 3.4.5.

2. When I try to do emwrap.sh -W I get a screen indicating that -W is not one of the ...

Sorry to have put this in the wron place. It didn't seem to fit any where very well.

Also, Thanks sketelsen. I am trying it out now.

I found a number of propriatary soultions that were for the most part too expensive or did not appear to be well developed.

I have a need to administer tests at many separate geographic locations. I would like to do it on the web with the person being tested having been authenticated, and then that peson would actually take the test on line. I have found some commercial applications, but wonder if any one is aware of ...

Me too. I installed modular X and then discovered that in fact there is practically no information on doing this. Maybe its too new. Oh well at least it dosn't take as long to compile X as it did before.

Thanks all for your replies. Blocking with the browser will probably bet cumbersom after a while. I am just going to block the entire site each time I think.

I know, I know GNU, Feedom etc.

I have a small network at home that my small children play games on some of which are web based. Some of the sites hosting these games also have chat on thier web sites. What I want to know is do I have to block the entire site, or is there some way to block the chat ...

I don't know when I started having the problem, but I have it too.

I had trouble authenticating while trying to mount XP directorys in linux. I was finally forced to dig deep and I found that there can be a issue with the smb.conf file (/etc/samba/smb.conf). Look at The global section, and change the file (one section shown) as follows, or if they do not exist ...

What do you think of free-nx?

Try this in your rules

ACCEPT fw loc udp 137:139 #smb
ACCEPT fw loc tcp 137,139,445 #smb
ACCEPT loc fw udp 137:139 #smb
ACCEPT fw loc udp 1024: 137 #smb
ACCEPT loc fw udp 1024: 137 #smb
ACCEPT loc fw tcp 137,139,445 #smb

Thanks

Hey,

Thanks for the reply. I never did get it to work. Double checked everything. Switched to shorewall and it works very well. It is easily configured and the programer just burned out and it will probably not be supported into the future. I will probably be looking for another solution.

In my machine, I had to look into the bios setup. There was an option in there ( don't remember what it was.. maybe net boot or some such.) I enabled that and it has worked. I didn't remove the video card, but the only thing the computer is connected to is the network and power.

fwiw

I have an old box (actually its not in a box, just in pieces on the floor...) that has an old style keyboard plug in that I plug and unplug (router) now and then - never a problem. on my other systems, I have a kvm (not sure exactly how it works) but on occasion, when switching I lose the key board ...

The way to fix a system with a package that will not be removed by is to do a manual uninstall as previously shown above, then go into and delete the entry for the package that will not uninstall and problem resolved.
