I was having the same problem. I put together a rather basic tool that rips the mht file apart into text and binary files in the current directory. Check it out: mht-rip

Easy answer: No, you don't need arts (or jack).

More difficult answer: To properly multiplex sound (have multiple programs share the sound card), you must have hardware mixing (aka dmix) enabled. A good place to start is here: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ALSA_sound_mixer_aka_dmix

There are several attemps to duplicate flash (one of which is Gnash), but none of them are very mature or even stable enough for real use.

So it doesn't work now that the server is on linux? I would suggest checking your iptables config to make sure you aren't blocking the connection.

I'm not sure I understand your problem. You want to have the software installed twice? I don't understand the wisdom behind this. The reason for disabling the debug USE flag is to save on hard drive space. So having two copies of the program on your disk will in essence double the amount of space ...

It is possible...it is called 'slotted'. I am not sure if Java is slotted in its current ebuild. That may require you setting up a portage mask and creating a couple of custom ebuilds to keep both versions.

I know this is really lazy...but I was hoping someone be kind enough to post their X40 .config file so I don't have to muck about getting the right setup. And your xorg.conf while you are at it. ::grin:: I'm a lazy sod, aren't i?

Ok...here is the deal...if you want to display something on your computer (say laptop), you actually have the X server. It is non-intuitive, for the fact that it seems backwards.

are you able to connect from the client to the server via ssh? If so, then as long as you have the tunnel set up right, the problem is most likely misconfiguration of your vncserver. The port to forward is 5900+ DISPLAY#, so say you did vncserver :64 than you need to forward to port 5964, so your ...

This is just a guess, but I would say it is because emerge-webrsync is a single thread process, thus only uses one processor. Maybe someone more familiar with that program can comment?
