The notion of daemon mode bothers me, because it must be run by root (IIRC) and the various users all put their separate private email passwords in a single file in /etc OTOH, the daemon mode configuration file is readable only by root, and if the root account is compromised then the users' private .fetchmailrc files can be read anywhere.

With these settings, xf86-video-intel: 2.6.3-r1 xorg-server: 1.6.2-r1 and 1.6.3 kernel module: i830 kernel: gentoo 2.6.29-r5 and 2.6.30-r4 sometimes when stopping or starting X my computer would freeze and there would be no video output. However, other than that, inside Gnome Firefox ran pretty smoothly, not incredibly fast, but not sluggishly at all. With these settings, xf86-video-intel: 2.8.0 xorg-server: 1.6.3 kernel module: i915 kernel: vanilla 2.6.31_rc7 X starts and stops very smoothly without ever freezing, I think because of the KMS. But Firefox runs sluggishly and my whole machine freezes in Firefox frequently. According to this, http://www.x.org/wiki/IntelGraphicsDriver, the 2.8.0 driver drops support for XAA and EXA, but has no UXA support for my graphics card (865G), so I think I'm getting no 2D acceleration. Could that be the reason Firefox is so slow? As for the freezes, I think that's just because the newer driver is unstable. What are the optimum driver and kernel versions for my graphics card, the 865G? Also, the reason I'm using the 2.6.31 kernel is because that X.Org wiki page says it works best with the 2.8.0 intel driver. Oh, and what exactly is the kernel module for and what are the differences between the i830 and i915? Pappy told me I should use kernel .27, and that KMS support right now for my card is very unstable. Anyway, I just want to know the best options right now for my card which is the 865G. Okay, my current setup is xf86-video-intel: 2.7.1 xorg-server: 1.6.3.901 kernel: 2.6.30-r4 with i915 and it never freezes while starting or stopping, and it never lags in Firefox. The only way this differs from my old setup is the xorg-server, so I think they may have fixed the freezing issue in the version. I tried both suggestions, and I don't know why but they just didn't work for me. Thanks for all the help though! Oh by the way, the only reason I even tried this was because I had to use a different kernel to get into X and it just happened to work perfectly! No, I was wrong. I also changed my xf86-video-intel, and THAT is what fixed the freezing problem, but now I have another freezing problem which I think is cause by the new intel driver because it happened in several versions of xorg-server. Finally is working on gentoo (with extra patches): x11-base/xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r2 sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.31 media-libs/mesa-7.5.1 x11-libs/libdrm-2.4.13 But kernel must be patched with: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2009-September/004122.html My /etc/X11/xorg.conf : Section ServerLayout Identifier X.org Configured Screen 0 Screen0 0 0 #Option AIGLX true EndSection Section Extensions #Option Composite Enable EndSection Section Device Identifier int Driver intel Option AccelMethod UXA #Option TilingFalse EndSection Section Module Load extmod Load dri Load dbe Load glx Load freetype EndSection Section Screen Identifier Screen0 MonitorMonitor0 Device int SubSection Display Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection -- Andrés

What commands can I try to get it to wake up or at least show me what's working and what isn't? The drive shows under fdisk /dev/sda. I can see the large partition, and it seems to be the right size, according to fdisk anyway, but I cannot mount it using mount, and so far I cannot get e2fsck to do anything. I had similar errors with an external USB drive recently and it turned out to be related to the USB port on the computer. (I suspect the USB controller was overloaded). I plugged it into a port on a different controller and it started working normally again. So some easy things I would suggest trying before messing with data: A) diferent USB port on the same computer B) plug it into a different computer entirely C) try a different USB cable By definition this will be true when I move it from the PPC-based Myth backend to the AMD64-based MythTV frontend here in the office. If it 'magically' starts working then that sort of cause may well be the reason. I'll report back on this but won't likely touch it before the weekend. So last night my replacement drive - 1394-bsed, not USB - went off-line during recording time so sll the late evening recordings were hosed. What's with Linux support of external drives? Is it just not reliable enough to depend on? This was not a drive failure but just a bunch of sense code message problems and everything quit. I probably could have spent time removing drivers, etc, and then restarting it but I just rebooted and everything came back. I used to use this drive for weeks at a time on one of my Windows boxes. No problems at that time so I have no strong reason to suspect the drive when this is the second drive issue in a few days wit this system. I wonder how I determine if it's a drive problem or a kernel/driver problem? - Mark

* kashani kashani-l...@badapple.net:
When building bugzilla-3.4.1-r1 which requires ~x86 I have to
unmask a number of perl modules. Two of those modules, listed above,
attempt to pull in perl-5.10.1 which isn't in portage. Hardmasking
packages that require dependencies that don't exist makes sense. If
you'd like to explain otherwise a little more data other than cause
I said so is required.
Let's have a look at the ebuild:

The ebuild depends on dev-lang/perl-5.10.1 or perl-core/Test-Harness-3.17.
The second one is in the tree so there is no need for hardmasking.
So if you add virtual/perl-Test-Harness to package.keywords you should
also add perl-core/Test-Harness.
If you wonder why portage doesn't report both possibilities, visit the

I use a laptop with one of those touch pads you use for a mouse where you drag your finger around on it and have two buttons for left and right mouse. Can any one tell me how to copy with mouse (really the left mouse button provided on the touchpad) but paste from keyboard while in text (console) mode? Or using the touch pad thing somehow. I've tried pressing both touchpad buttons at once to emulate middle mouse but it has no effect. So I'm thinking there must be a way from the keyboard to release the copied string someway to `paste' whatever is currently in the copy buffer or clipboard or whatever it is when you hightlight something in the terminal with left mouse drag. If I hook a real mouse to the laptop.. I can do the normal linux stuff all with mouse.. highlight with left mouse button drag (in a terminal) and paste the highlighted string with middle mouse. So again, how can I effect the above with only the keyboard for pasting or alternatively the touchpad? (The touchpad and two button apparatus built into the laptop) I notice on a windows OS what ever is highlighted anywhere with the mouse can be pasted with C-v. Is there a similar keyboard combo in linux (text) terminal mode?

[gentoo-user] [OT] Still pproblems with window placement
Hi, I asked the openbox mailing list before but still get no answer... I am using openbox (I came from icewm, but this project seems to be in hibernation state). Problem: I am using blender a lot. When blender is doing its rendering task I am switching to another desktop doing different things. When Blender finished, its rendering window appears on the desktop I am currently on AND the blender main panel jumps also to this desktop. This converts the sense of multiple desktops into its opposite. Then I installed devilspie: Now Blender and its child window always starts on desktop 2 -- even if I want to start more then one instance of blender, which again is different from the flexibility multiple desktops offer to the user. Openbox seems to offer an similiar possibility, but the blender windows were not recognized by that mechanism. Is there any way to bind child windows of an application to the desktop, where there parent windows were started and NOT to a certain fixed desktop? Thank you very much for any help in advance!
