Hi all —
First question, where is $MAIL set for the users? It is set now
to /var/mail/[user] somehow, or is by default. If so, where is that set?
Anyway, I need to change to ~/.maildir. If not set to change, where
should I set it?
The situation (needing a reality check) is we have an ISP that giv
Folks —
I'm having a problem getting a working *-perl/DBD-ODBC. I had one that
was working just fine, but un-merged unixODBC in a fit of pique, or
something. I re-emerged it, but then DBD-ODBC segfaults.
So, getting to debug I:

(Saw a similar thread, going the wrong way.)
I have a laptop with a spare partition waiting for WinXP, to install
from Dell OEM disks that came originally.
Is this possible? I understand XP will overwrite the MBR. So, I'd have
to re-install grub & that's it? '-)
Cheers,

I received a used laptop a week or so ago, wiped the tinker-toy OS
offered with it and proceeded to do the right thing. So far, I have got
a machine I can (manually) put to sleep and use on a wireless network.
So far, so good.
At home, I don't have a wireless AP, but a 50-ft. ethernet cable. When

I use Gnome ['gnome-light'] as my WM.
For the past few months (many months) I've had the 'gnome-panel' lock
up on me. Nothing is clearly causing this. Rebuilding has not seemed to
help. Of course, what to rebuild? Everything?
I've adopted the strategy of kill -INT and (next time) kill -HUP (and

Hello, OT post here, but:
I (the office, actually) have this lousy ISP that sells mailboxes

50MB is not enough and I get a quota warning.

Hello, folks --
Most days, I work remotely from the 'ndoze net via rdesktop when I have
to access it for some reason. But the bandwidth there is getting choked
as others follow suit.
I'm thinking I'd have a better time of it if I just had my own little
toybox -- I mean, Windows XP installation --

Hello, folks --
Is anyone using cron (vixie-cron) without a real MTA and getting
emails? The test is simple, just "echo hello world". I expect this
to come as an email to the address I put in MAILTO="". But it doesn't.
No dead.letter to be found either.

So, I just got 2 GB of RAM in the mail. Whoo hoo.

# CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM is not set
CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y
