Problem with totem and dropshadows

[Werner Lehmann]

Dear Sirs,

I have the following problems with FreeBSD 5.4 and gnome 2.10, and I 
would appreciate your help a lot:

1. As in the gnome2.10 instructions, I compiled atapicam into the kernel
and added the following entries into the /etc/devfs.conf:

# Commonly used by many ports
#link    acd0    cdrom
perm    cd0    0666
perm    xpt0    0666
perm    pass0    0666

after that the cdplayer and soundjuicer worked O.K., but totem doesn't.
When pressing on the button "play disk", I got the following message:

"Failed to find mountpoint for device /dev/cd0 in /etc/fstab"

so I modified my fstab the following way:

# Device                Mountpoint                            FStype    
Options            Dump    Pass#
/dev/ad0s3b            none                                        
swap            sw                      0    0
/dev/ad0s3a            /                                                
ufs            rw                         1    1
/dev/acd0                /cdrom                                      
cd9660    ro,noauto               0    0
/dev/acd1                /cdrom1                                    
cd9660    ro,noauto               0    0
/dev/acd0                /home/werner/DVD                  cd9660    
ro,noauto               0    0
/dev/acd1                /home/werner/CD-RW              cd9660    
ro,noauto               0    0
/dev/da0                  /home/werner/Memcard          msdos    
ro,noauto                0    0
/dev/cd0                  /cdrom                                       
cd9660    ro,noauto               0    0
/dev/cd0                  /home/werner/DVD                   cd9660    
ro,noauto               0    0


but after this and a reboot I get the following message, when pressing 
the "play disk" button:

"Failed to retrieve capabilities of device /dev/cd0: Inappropiate ioctl 
for device"

So what do I have to do now? As I said, the cdplayer and soundjuicer work.

Why since FreeBSD 5.4 you need atapicam for playing CD's and DVD's 
anyway, it worked fine before without that.

2. I added mp3 support into soundjuicer as described here in sound 
juicer help:

If you need to store tracks in the MP3 format (for example, because your 
portable music player only supports MP3 and not Ogg Vorbis), you will 
need to create a new profile. To do this, run 
gnome-audio-profiles-properties, press New and name it MP3. Then press 
Edit and set GStreamer Pipeline to audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 
! lame name=enc, the File Extenstion to mp3, and check Active. Then 
start Sound Juicer and select the MP3 format.

This profile uses the LAME MP3 encoder, so you will need to have the 
GStreamer LAME plugin installed.


This works fine, and produces a 128 kbps mp3 file, but how can I create 
a profile with 192 kbps or with variable bitrate?



3. On your homepage appears a screenshot with xorg's dropshadow enabled 
in gnome 2.10. How do I achieve that?

My xorg.conf  is already prepared for  that with the following entries:

Option     "RenderAccel" "true"

Option     "AllowGLXWithComposite"


Section "Extensions"
    Option "Composite" "Enable"
    Option "RENDER" "Enable"
EndSection


that way my hardware acceleration works fine.
I installed gnome 2.10 with sysinstall from the 2nd FreeBSD CD, but I 
get no dropshadows. What do I have to do now?
