I am currently trying to make a ldap server which i can use to authenticate
users. Sadly a large number of how to's are incomplete and don't work, so after

Hi,
I'd like to install the new package expy on sourceforge
http://expy.sourceforge.net/
Unfortunately, the contents of it are a bit non-standard.
First, the tarball has the unusual name expy.6.6.tgz.
Second, it untars in to the current directory (no subdirectory
expy-6.6)
Third, it has setup.

Hi,
Yesterday, I updated my system. On reboot, I get to my login screen,
but then everything is frozen - the cursor blinks in the box where I
am supposed to enter my password, but the keyboard doesn't work and my
mouse is frozen. I don't know if this has something do do with the
xorg update that

I would start by re-emerging xf86-input-keyboard and xf86-input-mouse,
as suggested in the xorg-server ebuild messages.

Yes, it happened to me long ago,

Boot from a live CD, then perform a chroot into your system as described
in the Gentoo handbook[1] or on the Gentoo wiki[2], then you should be
able to emerge as if you were running your system normally.

Hi,
I have been doing a bit of cleaning on my system - namely, removing kde
3.5 packages according to directions given via Gentoo documentation.
After doing this, I ran revdep-rebuild (with --pretend) and found that
there were a lot of broken packages. One of the problem packages was
krecipes.
It seems that sys-libs/db used to be slotted (I previously had 3 or 4
versions installed). But todays update is failing becuase Python wants
libdb-4.7 and Perl wants libdb-4.3. They won't both install because of
file collisions.
Is libdb no longer slotted?
How does one deal with applications that
43 matches
