Hi.
I'm planning on buying myself a MacBook and I'm just wondering if anyone
knows how many hours I will get out of it if I run Gentoo. I mainly use
a bunch
of terminals, gvim and some lightweigth gtk app so nothing heavy going on.
All input appreciated

Hello,
One of my coligues used this "rm -rf /" command on his ext3 partition as root
... of course :-( He removes about 50% of data. And my question is: is there a
utility to undelete the files and directories or at least some files? I know
that this shouldn't be possible but data are worth to ask

There are three packages:
app-text/ghostscript-esp
app-text/ghostscript-gnu
app-text/ghostscript-gpl
Up yesterday I was forced to use app-text/ghostscript-esp as the only
having gdi printer driver. Now, with ps-capable printer I can use any
of packages.
Which and why to use?

Hi,
I have a query about network manager. Network manager is rewriting
(actually putting blank there) my resolv.conf everytime it reconnected to
some network by eth0.
I want to avoid rewriting my resolv.conf. Can i do so ? if yes then how ?
thanks and regards,

Wear leveling. Second UFD for occasional backup. Am I missing
something, or does Portage only *write* to the database when you're
[em,un]merging? If so, I don't see that there's much to worry about,
even if you *are* running pure ~x86, and using overlays, like I am.
The only real drawback I see

Actually, doing the calculation properly gets 508 MB/s (532 MB/s is

I personally prefer JFS to XFS and have used it for years on my
servers and laptop with no problem other than hardware errors (and if
the hardware fails the fs will not help you). I had system board
problems in the laptop and a bad RAID controller in the server this
last year :(. Other than that

Try adding a:
LogLevel VERBOSE
or
LogLevel DEBUG
to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and restarting the ssh server, and see if it gives
you any more info.
