Pdfsam 2.1.0e now adds a new feature to modify the PDF document information.
it also adds the possibility to rotate the pdf.

as usual to find in my overlay

it still has a small bug that the thumbnail generator for the visual plugins sometimes crashes.
I am working on getting the other render added to the source packages so you can chose witch on to use.

Every time I was ask why do the gentoo-sources don’t include this feature, I have to describe that it is meant as a minimalistic kernel that should fit all users. Afterward the discussion starts how to integrate all the needed features into the gentoo-sources. I got tired always describing the process that is needed to get the required patches into there kernel tree. So I started creating my own patchset that includes all the requested features:

• tuxonice-3.0.1 - TuxOnIce for Linux
• acpi-dsdt-initrd-v0.9c - append correct dsdt to the initrd
• linux-execshield - a required patch for some binary only software
• cloneconfig - type make cloneconfig and the config of the running kernel will be used to config the new one
• colored-printk - BSD has it why not also linux (yes i really got asked for that kind of patch !)
• x86-tune-generic - tune kernel for new systems
• hz-432-option - the better choose for dualcore systems
• hz-864-option - the better choose for singlecore systems
• enable-4k-stacks-default - yes i am cracy
• defaults-fat-utf8 - yes really
• reiser4 - test new filesystem
• unionfs-2.5.1 - required for my work fai for gentoo
• tux3 - test new filesystem
• drm-modesetting-radeon - test the new X.org server
• lirc - the upstream modules directly added to the kernel build
• atop - what should I say
• toshiba_acpi - one of my old laptops
• thinkpad-acpi-0.23 - one of my old laptops
• phc-intel-0.3.2 - save power
• phc-k8-0.0.92 - save power

You can find the sys-kernel/geos_one-sources in my linamh overlay
