Is this Dolphin on Plasma? Have you emerged kde-apps/kio-extras with the samba use flag? Check what use flags your version of kio-extras uses, and adjust accordingly.

While this reply comes rather late to be useful to you, it still seemed worth noting that the wiki article in question has since been updated.

Unfortunately the quoted Gentoo wiki article gives very little detail, and the linked articles don't enlighten much either. Since Mediawiki 1.25 the ...

With Gnome-3.14 now in portage tree (albeit masked) I decided to try it. It took a bit of work, including a fresh install and significant amount of masking/unmasking, but I've got Gnome-3.14 running on Wayland (and Systemd) on my Dell Inspiron 7700. This is an Intel/nVidia Optimus laptop, and so far ...

I have a lot of similar errors in my log as well. Gnome 3 crashes after logging in.

If you switch to Linux then you'd be taking the red pill. ;)

Funny though, Microsoft seemed to see it the other way around at a recent Comdex show (picture, if you can, Bill Gates as Morpheus and Steve Ballmer as Neo. Hilarious!)

Thanks for this, I can't tell you what a PITA this has been.

More on xorg-server-1.10 woes:

re-emerged xf86-*-* as suggested by elog and minimised xorg.xconf. Still segfaults.

However, x starts if I use driver="fbdev" or "vesa".

No problems with keyboard (evidently).

Did you follow the elog instructions?

I emerged xorg-server-1.10.0.902 and nvidia-drivers-270.41.03 today, but the combination causes a segfault on starting X. I will investigate further and report, but if anyone has experienced the same please advise if you solve it.

I get:

And another guilty CD:

Philips Die Zauberflote - The Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields

I've had problems recently with +/- accessibility USE flags on qt-gui and qt-svg. It took a removal of all the qt-* packages on my system, a clear out of all the autounmask cruft and a re-emerge of @world to resolve the problem.

I had the same problem with Amarok 2.4.0 on x86 non-hardened, but a re-emerge of qtscriptgenerator fixed the problem.

Another tip for the HP2133 when setting up X:

Make sure that hald and dbus are started before attempting to configure X. Otherwise X will simply freeze as it cannot detect input devices.

Wish I'd thought of it before wasting 24 hours of fruitless labour.

The main difference between Gentoo and Vista is that the latter is like a teenager - recalcitrant, unreliable, patronising, and of course knows far better than you.

Here's a few examples:

Me: Eject external USB drive - Vista: No, you can't because there's something using the drive.
vs.
Me: Unmount ...

Have you tried python-updater? If python has been updated you need to run this to ensure packages compiled against python are re-compiled against the new version.

Could you tell me how you solved the USB problem you had wit this motherboard, as I appear to have the same problem with mine.

Many thanks.

Try compiling Rosegarden without arts support.

USE="-arts" emerge rosegarden.

I find that Rosegarden won't play using arts, but with alsa it's fine.

Have a look in the Gentoo package database for myspell-sv.

Add the following to your /etc/make.conf:

LINGUAS="sv" (+others - en is a good one)

Then emerge hunspell or myspell along with myspell-sv (and others you require).

I concur. My Dell Precision M50 display with analogue connection quite happily displays VesaFB at 1600x1200, but the GeForce 6600GTX in my desktop using the DVI connection to my monitor will only do 1024x768 with VesaFB.

Tedious but I tend to use Gnome on my desktop anyway, so it's not such a big ...

You might find this thread has a solution:

In your /etc/conf.d/net replace:

wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dndiswrapper"

with:

wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext"

Hope this helps.

Given the state development I'd say Beryl is pretty good. I run it on my Dell Precision M50 which has an nVidia Quadro4 GoGL 550 card with 64Mb video RAM. I suspect it's about the minimum spec to run Beryl, but even so it's pretty good. More than enough to impress passers by, and even the informed ...

I've had this as well. If you open a terminal and run pstree -p, you may find several instances of beryl (or beryl-manager) running. Don't know why, but if you kill one of these the flickering stops. I commented out the wm=beryl-manager option in /etc/env.d/99kde-env and this seems to stop this ...

I've had a lot of heartache trying to get Xgl/beryl/nvidia drivers/Gnome to work. Black screens, black windows, white cube faces, x not starting automatically, you name it. I started from an Xgl + compiz-quinnstorm install that worked pretty reliably. Xgl was emerged from a portage overlay fetched ...
