in the "Layouts" tab, there's a "Layout Options" button.
click it and choose the "Control + Alt + Backspace" in "Key sequence to

Hi list!
I noticed that recently (probably with the update to gcc-4.3.4 from
gcc-4.3.2-r2) the man and info pages disappeared.
With `eselect files` I could find them in
/usr/share/gcc-data/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.4/{info,man}.
Is this correct? How do I tell man and info to search the pages there

I have never got the flash plugin to work with Konqueror4 on my 64 bit system
though it works fine on a 32 bit one. I thought I would try again and
immediately got a segfault. The trace-back seems very bizarre:

Hello,
I have several workstations on kde4, mostly 4.2.4 or 4.2.x.
I'm looking for a clean, easy, unattended method to upgrade
about a dozen systems to kde 4.3.x (Or KDE 4 stable only). I'm
not sure what the latest stable kde4 version is,
or what folks recommend.
Since I try to keep the syst

and do _not_ have MySQL installed. I have noticed zero functionality
loss in my KDE4 desktop. FWIW.

according to http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml:
You could install the xorg-x11 metapackage instead of the more lightweight
xorg-server. Functionally, xorg-x11 and xorg-server are the same.
However, xorg-x11brings in many more packages that you probably don't need,

Hi group,
I did a full update including xfce-4.6.1. Then I installed the new
kernel, 2.6.30-r7. Now when I $startx, Xfce4 opens beautifully, just
as I left it. Background image, check; Icons, check; Panel, check.
Terminal open and ready to use. But there's no mouse or kbd function.
X has crashed :
