Good evening!
I've got a problem with media-sound/rhythmbox-0.11.2-r1 on
my new ~x86 system. When I play an MP3 file, I see that rb
progresses and when I turn on visualization, I see the sound.
But I hear nothing at all :/
Any ideas about why that's so?
The volume slider in rb is all the way up

Hello.
Sorry for being somewhat Off Topic, but could you guys please tell
me if it's possible to use iTunes with wine-0.9.57 under a ~x86
system? Is it possible to change the store location to something
other than US (as that's required to buy songs, as far as I know)?
Thanks,
Michael

Hello.
I'd like to set LINGUAS=de for almost every package. But for the
sys-apps/man-pages package, I'd like LINGUAS not to be set, so
that I don't get the german man pages installed.
How would I do that?
Thanks,

Hello folks!
I know that this question is offtopic for this list, but maybe
someone has a clue nonetheless...
I'm trying to access my local X display (on a Gentoo Linux machine,
of course - am I now on topic? *G*) from a remote system (running
Solaris 10U4 on Sparc). I cannot use ssh to login to
