Hello list!
I've recently bought LCD television from Panasonic (TX-L32E30E Viera). It is
connected to my home LAN and it should be able to access data on local
computers using some Data Center feature. From what I've heard, it is
something little bit different than common NFS/Samba sharing. It shou

I like the policy of blocking all ports in and out with a firewall and
only opening the ones you need. Bittorrent makes that difficult since
it connects out to unpredictable ports. Do you block outbound ports
with a firewall or only inbound?

Hi,
I managed to configure mercurial-server on my gentoo vps, and add my
public key for the root user to it.
I can ssh to hg@myvps.
But this is what I get when I run hg clone ssh://hg@myvps/hgadmin:
running ssh hg@myvps "hg -R hgadmin serve --stdio"

As always when I want to do anything like this there comes something
more important along and occupies all of my time.
So migration to systemd is stoped for now.
Hope I will come to it soon.

Hi,
I have a fast desktop computer and a slow laptop. Both are ~amd64

devices, I thought I'd dust off the laptop and try to bring it up to

It's been quite a few years but I decided to try another Gentoo

I created a ton of partitions including /usr (I want to see if I can
