I've got my new machine basically habitable with a few small problems.

(1) In Fluxbox, Gkrellm insists on starting on Desktop 1 ;
on my existing machine with the same config files, it starts on Desktop 8 .
There must be some setting somewhere which has got changed.

(2) Luxi Mono is not coming out cleanly in Gvim or (Xfce) Terminal :
IIRC there's a pkg or a setting somewhere to fix it,
but I can't find it in my extensive notes from the past.

(3) I have  4  heat sensors in Gkrellm : 'k10temp' + 3 * 'it87'.
Can anyone suggest which bit of which device each is measuring ?

The AMD Bulldozer X4 FX-4170 4-Core 4,2 GHz is taking  c 3/8  as long
to compile eg Firefox or GCC as this machine's Intel Core2 Duo ;
they also seem to be using less Portage tempspace on disk.
The variable-rate fan is very impressive, ranging  2200 - 6800 rpm .
