Re: [gentoo-user] Bug in spidermonkey?

Hi there Well I did reinstall my whole system but without luck. Emerging gnome-light showed the very same error when compiling spidermonkey. Then I thought I will install awesome, because it does not need spidermonkey. But the same problem here when compiling awesome. `Illegal statement' in t

[gentoo-user] uzbl

Hello there I've got a problem with uzbl, a web browser. The install works fine. I can also start the program. However it seems that uzbl doesn't want to listen to any keystrokes I type. For example 'o' to open an URL does nothing. Is anybody else here using uzbl and can help me with the pro
