Greetings.
Philipp, I am currently using XFCE and I would like to switch to KDE,
but I consider it a bit bloated :S. Do you mind sharing the way you
setup your KDE?
regards,

Hi list!
I have a suspicion that viewing certain PDFs in okular causes X server
to leak memory. Currently it is using 1.8 GB after 3 days uptime. Has
anyone else observed that? Is there a way to inspect X server's memory
usage?

You have to configure nrpe on the remote host you want to monitor.
E.g. you want to execute check_load on the remote host - to get this
working, you have to tell the nrpe server that "check_load" means.
In a normal environment, the check name is the o

Well, with 8Gb RAM, i recommend use tmpfs on PORTAGE_TMPDIR, just while u
are compiling anything.
Or even with 6Gb too.
I don't worry to much about use the SSD, the only thing that i do is use
distfiles, music/video/photos on HDD to safe space.
And the TMPDIR thing when i'm compiling a lot of thin

I cannot imagine it to say "do not let your OS swap on this flash disk".
Most people have no clue what swap is, and all those netbooks nowadays
have only a cheap SSD at

Nice way to handle that. I only had problems with libreoffice.
But i mount the tmpdir ondemand, and when libreoffice needs update i use
the SSD instead.
I have 16GB too, and in general use 4GB for tmpfs on TMPDIR, i think only
some packages need more then that.

I think u misunderstand, i belive that what Schuster have is tmpfs always
mounted on /var/tmp/portage, and PORTAGE_TMPDIR will be that.
When he need more than 8Gb in some package PORTAGE_TMPDIR will be
/var/portage/tmp and that on HDD.
What i have is /var/tmp/portage on tmpfs config in fstab with
Since I've seen the issue crop up more and more frequently on
Linux-related mailing lists, I thought I'd share this link that I
spotted this morning. It's an explanation of how EFI and Linux work

net-tools requires openrc >= 0.9.9.3. Your installed openrc, and
proposed update, is too old.
Upgrade to openrc-0.11.5... It came online on Saturday.
