Well, most will require that you build them from source with your current
kernel source tree someplace ( or at least access to the kernel-headers
package for the kernel you are running ). Debian has a CIPE package in

It depends on your window manager. What you appear to want is "click to
focus" rather than "focus follows mouse". Another option is "sloppy
focus" where focus does not leave a window unless the cursor rests on a
new window for some period of time.

Lets say you have a windows workstation with Eudora. It keeps its own
outbox, inbox and folders.
ssmtp allows you do so much the same thing with a Unix workstation. You

Probably not. What you probably should do in your case is to tell exim to
listen only to 127.0.0.1.
ssmtp is not designed to store mail locally on the system. It moves

I can not access www.ibm.com or www.cdw.com yet can access many other

just fine.
My reason for asking here is to do a quick poll of other Linux users who
