Of course I can but I want to point out that this should happen occasionally. I reported several packages to be keyworded for amd64 year ago and none of them is stable yet.

[gentoo-user] Recompiling pakages after rebuild of Qt?
Hi!

If this situation * occurs you should recompile the packages providing these plugins, * and you should also make sure that Qt and its plugins were compiled with the * same version of gcc.

I have the exact same problem, and have tried on this already for so long. After a while I just took a kernel config of a fedora box I have (2.6.17) and used that config and it worked straight away. Now I am in the process of removing stuff from and trying out, but its quite frankly pain in the butt, since all obvious option like in-build fs-driver, IDE/ATA support etc... but it does not work.

When I first install gentoo, I chose the stage1 tarball methods just becuase I wanted to be forced to learn ever step. It took me about a week of re=reading the docs and re-configuring the install until I learned how to get everything to work the way I wanted. If you really want to learn how to configure new kernels, the menuconfig has imbedded help docs for each parameter. If you are curious about any options just read up on them. I've learned alot this way, and each time a new kernel sources is released it gives you another opertunity to increase your experience and knowledge with you configure these new kernels.

[gentoo-user] Re: OT: get process name in c++
Hi, I posted this email a short while ago, and got some great tips for accessing /proc/self/status to read the process name. However, guess what I just found (after I've finished and tested my /proc/ implementation?) man 3 program_invocation_short_name: NAME program_invocation_name, program_invocation_short_name - obtain name used to invoke calling program ... DESCRIPTION program_invocation_name contains the name that was used to invoke the calling program. This is the same as the value of argv[0] in main(), with the difference that the scope of program_invocation_name is global. cool! Oh well, reading /proc/ was an experience :) On Wed, 2006-06-28 at 22:34 +0930, Iain Buchanan wrote: > Hi again :) > > I have been googling for this one for a little while, and trying various > options, but I can't seem to find it: How do I get the process from > within a process in c or c++? > > I don't want to use argv[0], because the particular place is deep within > classes, and there are too many (I'm doing some porting) to edit all of > their constructors, for example, to pass argv[0]. > > something like > > char *name = getpsname (pid); > > But does that exist?

I didn't realise until this thread that kino now supports ffmpeg compatible streams. I must try that. kino will do fancier transitions etc - avidemux is more for cutting the odd bit out and transcoding the result. if you are happy to may money then main actor does a reasonable job of editing/transitioning and transcoding. > gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list -- Nick Rout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] where does PID wrap around?
Hi all, I know that PID's wrap around if they get to a sufficiently large number - anyone know what that number is? 2^16 (65536), or 2^15 (32768)? Is it fixed for a particular system / kernel / universe? or even better, is there a #define I can use from one of the system headers? thanks, -- Iain Buchanan The advertisement is the most truthful part of a newspaper. -- Thomas Jefferson -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

It is a bug in the ebuild dependencies. It has a hard dependency on DBD-mysql, which in turn has a hard dependency on mysql. It appears to be fixed in the later unstable ebuilds.

[gentoo-user] Lots of missing gentoo-user mail
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hiya, For the last 2 years I have been archiving structurally all my gentoo-user mails I have received into MySQL. In the last few months I have noticed that I have been receiving more and more broken threads (In-Reply-To and References), indicating missing mails from those threads. At present I use gmail to receive the mail which is then downloaded via fetchmail to my imap server. Recently I added the gmane.linux.gentoo.user newsgroup to my thunderbird to make some comparisons between that I am receiving and what they are receiving. To my surprise I am missing between 1 and 4 messages per thread (of more than let's say 10 messages). It is not a threading problem, and not a pop3 problem ~ I can confirm that what I have in gmail is what I have locally. To give some examples of totals in some larger threads over the last couple of days: Subject Local gmane "Kde menu" 11 12 "MythTV vs. Gentoo VDR" 9 10 "PORTAGE_ELOG error"24 28 "strange [ file"27 31 "can't install ati-drivers" 13 16 "How packages becomes stable?" 8 9 "Unable to mount root fs on uknown - block (0,0)" 14 17 I have confirmed that that I have locally is exactly what I have in gmail, so the problem is not local, and they are not caught anywhere in gmail's spam filters. What I am trying to work out if if it's just me having an issue with gmail (which I will confront the gmail team there about), or if the gentoo-user mailing server is skipping addresses or having issues sending. Tracing mail logs over a few days to check threads can be a painfully annoying job ;-) I am subscribed to other lists too which I seem to be having absolutely no problems with, although they are somewhat less active than the gentoo-user one. Are any of you (gmail or not) having the same problem? What is the correct way to go about locating and confronting this issue? Thanks for any advise.
