hi When i start w3m in an xterm w3m loads ( i can only see "1.03kb loaded" on the left corner).. i cant get out of it ( i tried "q" "ctrl-C || -D , is not responding) now when i run it inside emacs i get (location www.google.com/ ext_halfdump=1 : bad option and i get a long list of options) w3m version w3m/0.4.2+cvs-1.890-m7n i do use ~x86 ( i dont think that makes any diff ) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Please provide `emerge info` and full log of "running w3m inside emacs" (did you mean you run w3m in shell-mode of emacs? or M-x w3m ?)

Thanks. It looks your installation is incomplete (it shouldn't show $options when you call w3m inside emacs). Anyhow, I slightly modified the ebuild to enable m17n by default (option helper panel hangs it m17n is disabled), so could you emerge w3m again? After you re-install it, please type "w3m" (it will show a list of w3m version and options as you provided above), "locale" and "ldd /usr/libexec/w3m/w3mimgdisplay" from console, and paste output here.

From the output of ldd, it looks it doesn't pull media-libs/gdk-pixbuf in.As I can see from your emerge info, you set USE="X" and don't setUSE="nopixbuf", so w3m must depend on media-libs/gdk-pixbuf andw3mimgdisplay should be compiled against gdk-pixbuf. I think thisis because of Bug 29849 and we can't help doing little workaround.For one thing, you might emerge gdk-pixbuf manually and then emerge w3m again (this will compile w3mimgdisplay with gdk-pixbuf).Alternatively, you can start w3m with "w3m -v" and press "o" to go to w3mhelperpanel, and turn off "Display inline images" under "Display Settings" (however, you can't see images inside xtermif you do this workaround). I think either of these will solve the problem.
thank you very much for ur help :P
first i wanna appologize for rushing into problem solved but is not .. i did all u told me , now when i start w3m -v , the page loads okay unfortunatelly pressing "o" does not work and i am unable to "q" (close the program ) $ cat /etc/make.conf | grep -v ^# USE="X gtk gtk2 emacs python ncurses mozilla gnome -alsa -kde -arts -qt gif" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium3 -fprefetch-loop-arrays -funroll-loops -pipe" CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86"
i forgot to say that i reinstalled gentoo and this time i am using X (gnome)..
No worries. I wondered if the problem was correctly solved ;) Actually, w3mhelperpanel has a bug when you --disable-m17n (it was disabled when you emerge w3m with USE="-cjk") and I forced it to be enabled by default in w3m-0.4.2-r2.ebuild version 1.2. Can you check the version of your ebuild by `head -n 3 /var/db/pkg/net-www/w3m-0.4.2-r2/w3m-0.4.2-r2.ebuild`? if it says your ebuild is 1.1, please emerge sync and try again. If your ebuild is 1.2, it will be another story.

Sorry I though I committed what I wrote in Comment #9 but actually it was in my local CVS tree... (And I confirmed that pressing "o" hangs with your USE flags) Please run `emerge sync` and remerge w3m again (I tested pressing "o" doesn't hang with it).
hehheeh , this time it worked :P thank u for ur help
