If you ever encounter problems with installing Xmms2 and Esperanza client on Gentoo box, here is a solution.
Xmms2: (http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/wiki/Download_XMMS2#Source)
Esperanza: (http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/wiki/Client:Esperanza)
I usually install non-portage apps in /usr/local directory. I assume you unpack sources to /usr/local/src dir
Xmms2 uses waf build system:
cd xmms2-0.5DrLecter
./waf configure
./waf build
./waf install
I take a lot of photos. And one day I faced the problem of effcient managing them. I tried GQView, Digikam and Picasa (and many other apps, both java and php). And still - there are no apps for photo managing in Linux that satisfy me. However, for the simple managing I did what follows below.
I have a MyBook external disk and I created a huge (100 GB) partition only for photos taken by me, and taken with my Nikon D40.
Have you ever thought about switching to Gmail? The best mail ever? And what about your contact list? And what about your old mails?
I decided to switch do Gmail, not because of huge storage, but simplicity and speed. However, since I didn't want to lose all my old email from three or four accounts (or more, I don't remember) I had to found a solution for exporting them.
Exporting contacts in CSV format and importing them to Gmail is rather simple, hence exporting mails one-by-one by forwarding them to Gmail is not efficient, I tried another approach which is tricky, but simple.
