[gentoo-user] Exim and SMTPS

2005-04-05 Thread Daevid Vincent
I used to run a RedHat 8 server (that hadn't really been updated for three years due to the hassle of RPMS) with Sendmail and SMTPS. I finally took the plunge and setup a new Gentoo server this past weekend. I was told to use Exim (or anything but sendmail). Everything is generally working except

Hello my friend... Run both of these: # fix_libtool_files.sh 3.3.4 (assuming you're running GCC v3.3.4) # /usr/portage/dev-lang/perl/files/perl-cleaner You updated GCC most likely and so things are a little out of synch. I don't know why the GCC ebuild doesn't run 'fix_libtool_files.sh 3.3.4'

PHP5 has SQL lite built in. that might be enough for your RDBMS needs. And isn't 'tux' httpd built into the kernel, so maybe that is something to investigate > -Original Message- > From: Rui Silva [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sunday, February 20, 2005 3:50 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[gentoo-user] Portage alternating between upgrade and downgrade of media-libs/gst-plugins [solved].

2005-02-16 Thread Daevid Vincent
I finally figured out why portage keeps fluctuating between upgrading and downgrading these packages. It seems that every time I upgrade system or world, it isn't the right version. *sigh* I added '-t' to my emerge and discovered a package that isn't in my keywords file. daevid edb # emerge -Davu

I'm not sure if this is is how Evolution v2.0.3 is supposed to work or not, but it seems kinda silly. Maybe there is some checkbox I need to enable, but I can't find it. Anyways, I have a filter setup that turns mail from me "Daevid" to blue color. simple enough right? Well, it only works when I s

I have a Dell i8200 notebook that uses the "snd_intel8x0" sound driver. I use KDE and that uses ALSA. There is this little "applet" that is called "aRts Control". I think it's supposed to be a little audio meter, but more importantly, it's supposed to be a volume control. It doesn't do anything how

I would have bailed on Gentoo long ago if it weren't for this life saver. Last time I tried, the ebuild was broken (and out of date) -- very very dissapointing. However, you can get the source (0.9.4) and compile it very easily. dev-util/meld Latest version available: 0.9.0-r1 Latest

mpile times on a Pentium4 2.0Ghz with 640MB RAM is just maddening, frustrating and ridiculous. I thought Gentoo was supposed to use the binaries when it can? Surely someone else out there has compiled KDE, X, etc. for a Pentium4 class machine... Why isn't emerge getting them for me?! *g*
