Here is my system specs: > Yeah, X has bugs. ;-) I was experiencing something similar in RH 7.3, or rather the version of XFree86 that shipped with that distro. There was what amounted to a null pointer reference somewhere in the bowels of the X code. I worked with one of the XFree guys on patching it up. On the plus side, I learned a lot about rebuilding and patching X from scratch (shudder). I've heard isolated reports of X crashes in our labs with 8.0, but I haven't been able to reproduce them as consistently as I had before. If you can reproduce the problem consistently and don't mind some GDB tracing to find the error, the XFree developers were pretty speedy in getting me a patch. --Chris -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
DVD, Audigy and AC3
Has anyone actually got their Audigy or Sound Blaster Live! cards to do any AC3 decoding when watching a DVD? From what I understand, the whole point of these cards is to have an on-board AC3 decoder. Is it a linux thing? I don't actually use windows, so I'm not sure if it works under that either. I've tried both the ALSA and opensource creative drivers without any luck. Oh and if anyone knows what's the proper audio plugin for Ogle if you aren't running ALSA? OSS? Matthias ships if configured for ASLA. ;-) All the speakers work properly. I have independent volume controls of front/sub, center, and rear via the mixer, but the card only seems to be doing stereo decoding. The center channel is just a sum of the left+right channels and the rears are a mirror of the front. --Chris -- Homepage: http://interclypse.net Registered Linux user #215241 (http://counter.li.org/) signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

I'm assuming the original poster was referring to bounce as if a mail address didn't actually exist or there was a delivery error.

It does seem likely that the redirect feature was what they meant. But, what if you had atrue bounce feature. If you were able to bounce an email message as if a mailbox didn't exist, the sender (if done properly) would never know it was accepted by your mail server. You'd have to munge the mail headers which is probably a no no --chris -- -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
Sendmail masquerading
Anyone having strage problems with masquerading under 8.0? I can't seem to get it to rewrite mail.foo.com to foo.com on outgoing email. I've sanity checked it against the RH docs and then double checked it against my working 7.3 configuration. - The following addresses had permanent fatal errors - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (reason: 553 5.1.8 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Domain of sender address [EMAIL PROTECTED] does not exist) It should have been rewritten to foo.com which would resolve to a valid DNS address. I'm stumped. >From the .mc file FEATURE(always_add_domain)dnl FEATURE(`masquerade_entire_domain')dnl FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope')dnl FEATURE(`allmasquerade')dnl MASQUERADE_AS(`foo.com')dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(`foo.com')dnl MASQUERADE_AS(foo.com)dnl --Chris -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list

Evolution 1.2 and sound
So I figured the new sound-on-email feature was a great way to torment people that work near my office. It seems to only work on local/POP3 accounts, not IMAP. If I recall, xbiff is the same way. Evolution seems to do a pretty good job of recognizing the fact I do have new messages in my IMAP folders and bolds them. Not having written an email client before, is there some technical reason I'm missing why this isn't feasible over IMAP or am I just missing something during configuration? --Chirs -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list

I needed my username in the evolution IMAP config to match the following format to connect to our Exchange Server (you didn't mention what the server type was).
