Java 1.5 GUI bug under Berly

According to this discussion list: Beryl Froum
The solution is simple, just add "-Dawt.toolkit=sun.awt.motif.MToolki" when you execute java gui program.
" Sun re-implemented AWT in Java 1.5 on Linux away from MToolkit to XToolkit", it seems that XToolkit is faster than MToolkit, but XToolkit have some bug, so we have to downgrade to old MToolkit.

Every thing goes fine now~

Nvidia Quadro Plex Driver 9626 for AMD64 Release!

NVIDIA Quadro Plex Driver Linux x64 (AMD64/EM64T)
emerge nvidia-drivers seems still have some problem with 9626 version, some library does not link correctly, but this release did not solve the black windows bug when using AIXGL or XGL...

Thank tib for solving this problem.

AIGLX+Beryl Finally Works!!

After install the nvidia-driver

• cd /usr/src/linux
• make moudles_install
• exit X
• rmmod nvidia
• modprobe nvidia
• eselect opengl set nvidia
• modify the symbolic link under /lib/tls/libnvidia-tls.so to /usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libnvidia-tls.so.0.1.XXXX

ORZ... Linux Kernel with GCC4.1

明天要交專題競賽企劃書，然後我在這邊重新編譯Kernel with GCC4，感覺十分的冒險阿，如果到時候近不去x的話我明天就死定了，不過現在看起來一切順利，剛剛編完的時候忘記make moudles_install害我第一次重開機的時候臉都綠了...

繼續寫文件~

Kxdocker weird circular dependency

When I try to emerge kxdocker under overlay "portage-xgl", a weird circular dependnecy occr:

kde-misc/kxdocker-1.1.4a-r1 depends on

kde-misc/kxdocker-i18n
kde-misc/kxdocker-resource
kde-misc/kxdocker-i18n depends on
kde-misc/kxdocker
kde-misc/kxdocker-resource
kde-misc/kxdocker
Maybe I use "nls" in my use flag to cause this situation, but the dependency looks very very unreasonable, and i update the portage-xgl to the newest version. So I decide to use brute force to solve it XD~
Edit kde-misc/kxdocker-1.1.4a-r1.ebuild, remove the RDEPEND.
After that, all the problems was solved!

Upgrade to Xorg7

Every problem will be fix after you upgrade your NV driver.

Upgrade to GCC4

After you upgrade to GCC4, you have to run "fix_libtool_files.sh" to fix some library, otherwise you will encounter many problem when you install other app.
ex. libkhtml.so: undefined reference to `__cxa_get_exception_ptr@CXXABI_1.3.1'
