I am having problems with vixie-cron: My laptop is usually turned off at night and cron.daily is set to run by the gentoo default at 03.01am. Even if I start it up at 6am and let it sit for a couple of hours, it picks up the missing cron job(s) sometime after 9am (not sure when exactly). Where does gentoo set this timing so I can alter it.
Its a real drag that updatedb, tripwire etc all startup (at the same time). This will place it smack in the middle of regular presentations using OO I will be giving over the next few weeks! At this time, the laptop will be running on battery (this type of disk usage severely reduces battery time - from ~1.75 hrs to ~1 hr) and speedstep drops the clock from 2.2G to 1.2G (to increase battery time!) so there is even less grunt to run OO.
