Hi all,
I would like to set some rules for user passwords like minimum length,
password must contain a digit, special character, upper and lower letters,
etc. but have not found a way yet how to do it. Do I need some special
addon or is this configurable in base system?
Thanks,
Raul

I did think that. But with other instructions adopted by the other

Hi there,
When I install a new package I run `emerge -pv foo` to look at the

there are two listed, ati and xorg-x11. xorg-x11 is selected.
That means you have not removed ati-drivers. It might be they interfere

Yes, there's some keyword in [] before each file it (un-)installs. I think for
config protected files it prints "[cfg]" or something similar.

Hi,
so I temporarily disable all USE flags in my make.conf by adding the "#"
to the line. Some with package.use.
The I run :
USE="cpudetection" emerge -pv mplayer
See output below.
So what changes for me: oss is added. That's nothing for hardware and I
use alsa, so I don't need it, do I?

No, I have not yet memorized all of them, and they change frequently.

I know the subject is a bit lacking but here goes. I'm thinking about
trying this xorg-server upgrade again. I been thinking about a way to
do this and not have to pull the plug on my rig if it fails, which I bet
it does. This is the command I am thinking about trying.
/etc/init.d/xdm start &&
I often use Ctrl+F1 to F6 to back to the command line and if your X is
fine you can back the X screen using Ctrl+F7. Or if you want to kill
your X then Ctrl+Alt+Backspace may be helpful.
