Speaking of mutt, is there a way to turn off its insistence on creating symlinks called sendmail? My most embarressing moment as a linux user came several years ago when I first created an hourly cronjob. I wasn't aware of the need for ending it with 21. The garbage output went to root via sendmail, which was actually a symlink to mutt. mutt is a deliberately dumb mailer that simply pushes email out the door to my ISP's MTA. So the hourly garbage went to root at my ISP. They sent me a polite email asking me to kindly stop. G I took a couple of steps then. Besides adding 21 to my cronjobs, I set root=myaccount in /etc/ssmtp/ssmpt.conf, so that any stuff getting through would go to my account at my ISP, not to root at my ISP. I also went around stomping on the symlinks. So far, I've discovered /usr/bin/sendmail and /usr/lib/sendmail and /usr/sbin/sendmail. In each case, I deleted the symlink, created a directory by that name, and did a touch .keep inside the directory. -- Walter Dnes waltd...@waltdnes.org

I can't seem to modify the /etc/resolv.conf and get it to sick at boot. Depends on how you connect. If you're behind a router/gateway device that does NAT (this includes most DSL modems), you use the device's IP as nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf as well as routes_ethN in /etc/conf.d/net. For example, if your router's IP is 192.168.1.1, you use this in /etc/resolv.conf: nameserver 192.168.1.1 And this in /etc/conf.d/net: routes_eth0=default via 192.168.1.1

Please use 'dmesg' to find out why Well, that's all a bit strange. 'kvm' is one of the two kernel modules used by kvm (naturally) which is a completely different product from vbox. kvm is great for machines with hardware virtualization support, but doesn't work at all without it. VirtualBox OTOH does not need hardware support at all and uses its own kernel module name vboxdrv (has nothing to do with kvm). I'm thinking you looked at the wrong part of dmesg -- but why there is an error message there from kvm I can't guess. I'm using the vbox svn repository from Sun, so I haven't tried building the portage version. What problem do you see?

If you're behind a router/gateway device that does NAT (this includes most DSL modems), you use the device's IP as nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf as well as routes_ethN in /etc/conf.d/net. For example, if your router's IP is 192.168.1.1, you use this in /etc/resolv.conf: nameserver 192.168.1.1 And this in /etc/conf.d/net: routes_eth0=default via 192.168.1.1 Except the route the gateway are completely different things. They _might_ happen to share an IP. They might not. The OP asked how one specifies nameservers in /etc/conf.d/net. dns_servers=( 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 ) might work, but it is properly and *clearly* discussed in /etc/conf.d/ net.example. I am unable to reply to David's most recent post because he's made such an unslightly mess of quoting. However it seems to me that bringing routes into your reply has only confused matters. Stroller.

The compile failed the basic error seems to be this: generate_defs_glib.o: In function `main': generate_defs_glib.cc:(.text+0x6b): undefined reference to `std::basic_ostreamchar, std::char_traitschar std::__ostream_insertchar, std::char_traitschar (std::basic_ostreamchar, std::char_traitschar , char const*, int)' I've done a revdep-rebuild to make sure things are consistent, and it says things are OK. Google doesn't seem to know that error message, and I couldn't find anything relevent at bugs.gentoo.org. The only thing I can think of is that it has to do with some libraries having been compiled with an older version of gcc, but I'm not sure how to check for that...
