Does anyone have experience with this? Is it possible to a save an ext3/4 system destroyed by mkswap?
Re: [gentoo-user] Thunderbird Datepicker
Hello Nicolai, the USE flags don't make any difference. Rebuild my Thunderbird without all system-* USE flags and with bindist enabled. No difference. But I noticed some warnings related in the console which might be related. I will check this today.

I think we tried about every option the router has. I hate calling the AT service number. I usually have to go up a couple tiers before I get someone who knows answers since I use Linux here. Windoze, mac, they can help a bit. Linux, not the low level folks. Well, it finally hit me, I had the cell number of a tech from several years ago. He mostly works on phone service but he knows a bit about the DSL part as well. He got promoted I think a while back. I texted him and found out something I wish I had known before. The DSL box that sits up the road does not support IPv6. That explains why nothing worked. So, after beating on that thing, I end up with nothing but IPv4 like I had before. Well, there is one improvement. I do have a very nice wireless router. That thing has AWESOME wireless range when using those long 9db antennas. They over a foot long but I can connect with my cell phone 300 feet down the road. ROFL Even going to the mailbox isn't a issue now. Old router, barely made it out the door and off the porch. Thanks to all, especially Mick, who helped with this thing. Maybe one day, just maybe. Dale :-) :-)

That's called "grasping at straws" Why don't you just try it? What could you lose? "When all else fails, read the instructions." -- Regards, Peter.
