Thanks for the hint, it worked.

Not sure what you mean by /etc/conf.d/net.wlan0,
do not see any hint even in /usr/share/doc/openrc-0.8.2-r1/net.example

My previous HW required load/unload of kernel module from preup/postdown
and I just copied the config to new PC. If there is a better place to ...

Mh, doesn't work for me, all I get is a blank mutt-window?!

The difference between file in maildir and a mbox is basically the first From line.
I do not need to open the files into all details (and extract attachments) that often

Hi,

My recent emerge installed openrc and I found myself in a problem with setting up wireless network.
Basically I use environment variable to specify the SSID as there are more available around
and one of them requires parameters not supported by gnome-network-manager.

So far everything worked ...

Create a script to see yourfile like this:

Code: Select all

echo From asdf `date` >/tmp/asdf
cat yourfile >>/tmp/asdf
mutt -f /tmp/asdf
rm /tmp/asdf

Hi UberLord,

Only today I arrived back to the specific network to test the change suggested.
nolink in /etc/dhcpcd made the lease working:

Have strange problem with new install of gentoo amd64 in LenovoW510 laptop.

Using dhcpcd 5.2.10-r2, e1000e in 2.6.36-tuxonice-r3, everything works fine
until I attach to a network where DHCP server requests updated MTU.
Once dhcpcd tries to update MTU, carrier is lost momentarily and the
DHCP ACK ...

Looks like it was a temporary issue, my address is not listed in RBL.

Now it worked, and I find it *very interesting* that during my test a SMTP connection
was made and FROM address: double-bounce@gentoo.org pretended to send
message to my used FROM address

I noticed trouble receiving notification about watched topic.
It looks like my ISP antispam filter is in the way, they check
whether envelope address is valid:

Hi,

Using Gentoo for years I am installing a new system, first time amd64.
Selected syslog-ng at the relevant stage of install guide, as usual.
After the long task of 'emerge gnome' I powered the system off,
and got surprised seeing error when /etc/init.d/metalog stop complained
that the service is ...

Observed the problem with Lenovo T60 after upgrade from 2.6.20 to 2.6.24.
Removed CONFIG_PCI_MSI from .config. It does not appear missing.
Menuconfig help is also not really sure of the benefits:
"If you don't know what to do here, say N."
