Btw, discussing ppc kernel bugs; the other thing that happens to me is the following: My system hangs when plug-in in my Netgear MA111 USB Wireless adpater while the system is running. However, plug-in and restart works and I am able to remove it without problems, too. Just no plug-in at runtime or ...

i did my first sync, -uDNva world in months last night. since the update i've had problems with my wireless.

i have a latitude d610 with ipw2200 wireless adapter.

when i press "fn-f2" to activate/deactivate the wireless dmesg says...

gah, i should've checked bugzilla first. thanks for the link.

i love audacity, but its trouble. i've had trouble with it in the past with use flags and such, but i think this problem is unrelated.

here is the last output before the build just stops...

i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -o ../audacity obj/AColor.o obj/AStatus.o obj/AboutDialog.o obj/AudacityApp.o obj ...

my working solution was found at http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Dell_Latitude_D610... by simply adding this line to grub.conf's kernel line all my troubles went away.

dgaffuri, you're my hero. it all built fine. thank you very much!

i've fiddled with my make.conf and my package.keywords, but i cant seem to get linux-wlan-ng to build. any ideas?

have my ssmtp.conf at chmod 640, so im in the same boat... only root can send with ssmtp.

i only really wanted ssmtp setup so that i could have cron jobs email me stuff periodically so it suits my needs. but i can see how you'd want to enable this for users as well as root while not allowing users ...

this showed up with the gnome 2.12 upgrade.

i use nautilus often and love the changes i see in 2.12. i have bookmarked several ssh/ftp/samba after i use nautilus's "connecto to server" feature. it works really well, go gnome-vfs!

the problem arises when i right click on a local file or dir in ...

thanks so much for the reply. ssmtp is now working.

i think my problem was the revaliases file-- i had gmail.smpt.com isntead of smtp.gmail.com .

the below ssmtp.conf works even if all revaliases are comment out. then again, its just me and root on this box.

yes. i realized this after i posted. lappie is doing an emerge -e right now. thanks!

run and paste in the output, maybe that will give us a clue.

on my desktop (athlon-xp), adding -mtune=athlon-xp to my CFLAGS solved this problem for me

on my laptop (pentium-m), i had to set my CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -mtune=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" to fix it. (with either -03 or -02 the emerge fails.)

much has changed for those that care. i have broken up the 1 large script into a series of smaller scripts. the code has gone through a re-write. scripts will now recurse directories. much improved error checking. simpler operation.

ok, it seems that a re-boot fixed everything... im not sure what caused the problem.

from my prev post... i killed X, restarted hald/dbus again, then started X (gnome) and nautilus named my cdrom/dvd drives correctly and automounted my usb stick once again. order of operations.

thanks for the help ...

i removed hald and dbus from starting automatically with rc-update, then rebooted. the hald and dbus scripts seem to be working properly now.
