I tried this before, and it did not help, as there was no ~-version of libquicktime....
I solved the problem by getting rid of kdenlive, which was the package that pulled the ~-version of ffmpeg in (ultimately). Not very elegant, but as I did not need kdenlive anyway, it's doable.

The error I stated above is still not resolved... and I was not sure what to look for on bugzilla... searching for ffmpeg resulted in a lot of bugs... is there anything I can do about it?

I think what I did is compile the sound drivers as modules, and having them autoloaded. In fact, that's the setup I have now, and I haven't done anything else than following the gentoo ALSA guide....

I meant the config-files of all the different programs around - they all have standardized formats, placed and meanings and "ways they should be like". What I never liked about SuSE for example is the idea of the overall config-file that sometimes lead these standardized ideas ad absurdum.

Other ideas for hard targets:

- Integrate equery, glsa, esearch, revdep into emerge
- Document USE flags better
- Make it easier to update config files
- Simplify and accelerate the init system
- Merge many small config files into fewer big ones (rc.conf style)


I would not agree to the last ...

you could always use the external dns server you have and use this option in it's named.conf:

allow-recursion {
192.168.0.0/24;
192.168.1.0/24;
};


changing that to the ip of your router. that way anyone who uses the server can resolve your external hostname, but nothing else, and you can ...

Thanks for this! I therefore have to specify the internal DNS server as nameserver in the router's DHCP settings, right?

Network setup: subdomain pointing to homeserver?

Hi all

I had an idea over christmas how to fix my rather dull and meaningless network setup at home. However, as I am no expert on this topic, I thought I'd share it here, hoping someone could share some thoughts on this.

So, here's the general idea:

Same problem here. I found this while googling, maybe it's an upstream bug? However, I could not find anything on bugs.gentoo.org - so I opened one (bug 199450)... hope I did it ok, as I never used bugzilla before (I only cc-ed myself to some bugs...) :oops:

OK, understood. But - what is the problem? Shall I use two commands, like tar first and then bzip?
Maybe it has to do with the file size - the resulting file is some 2.1GB big (and it's on a Samba share, maybe this does not work?)

I am using rsnapshot to backup my client regularly; it writes the snapshot in a separate directory, and after backing up, the plan was to tar everything onto a Samba-share (which itself is backed up regularly).
In order to do so, I wrote a tiny script called "makebackuptar", which is defined ...
