Is there another way? The current version of revdep-rebuild does not
work well on more than one of my systems, - the bugfix for one problem I
can identify is in cvs and is not yet available on stable. Thats if you
trust it in any case - I have good reason to treat it with suspicion on
older syste

I am having problems viewing oracle forms on firefox with blackdown
java. I have followed various font and X guides with no improvement.
Both screen and printed data looks like:

Yep, thats it. A sync this morning and its available - must have missed
it by only a short time with the previous sync!
I have been waiting for this to appear, and seeing someone ask that it
had been stable, I assumed that it had been out awhile and I was missing
out on the good stuff :)

Part of the process for upgrading to the new java system, and using
modular X (before it became stable) requires keywording
via /etc/portage/package.keywords.
What happens when the keywording is no longer necessary? It appears
that you slowly collect an ~x86 system as the keywords grow! - along

If anyone is having problems with revdep-rebuild after the modular X

yes I hit it too - back before it hit stable. It seemed that going xorg
modular is a one way trip as you cant remove modular xorg easily unless
you keep an independent record of every package installed. I was pissed
because modular didnt work and I couldnt uninstall it! Eventually

Ive just been reading up on 64/32 bit and gentoo. Does 64bit (athlon64
3200) offer any advantages for a mythtv system? Its a (now that I have
good HW on it!) stable working system, but it looks like I will have to
reinstall (no mean feat considering the setup time this took in the
first place!) i
Thank you, just what I needed. I thought I had turned binary logging
off, and didnt expect to find the files there in any case.

The mysql database used only by mythtv has grown to 1.3Gbytes - a bit
over the top!
mythconverg itself is only 34Mbytes, but /var/lib/mysql is full of files

You might want to check out the following ntp.conf options depending on
your network link - in particular the panic 0 option or the commandline
version '-g'

The huffpuff value seems to help on a loaded broadband connection, and I
found it a must on a modem. The panic
This was exactly it - though not strictly 'mis-configured. Its a mythtv
box setup to run on a TV, and I had plugged a monitor in to use it. A

I have just brought my X up to date (modular Xorg 7.1) and am finding
that xscreensaver is crashing the xserver. Of course there is nothing
in the logs, or onscreen as X either stops or reboots. Eventually it
takes out the OS and a system reboot is required.

I was afraid that would be the answer. I hope one day they will add a
