This depends on the format evolution uses to store the mails.
If it is the well-known mbox format, then go to
http://batleth.sapienti-sat.org/projects/mb2md/ and use the script that
you can download there to convert from mbox to maildir format.

No, the IMAP protocol lets the imap server decide how to organize the
mailboxes. The client is responsible for displaying this correctly.
AFAIK mozilla does not do this correctly by default but can be tweaked
to do so. See also http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/FAQ.html#namespace

Hi,

the main problem is that most ports used by NFS are randomly allocated.
In order to run NFS through a firewall you have to tell the NFS related
daemons to use fixed ports. See
http://www.lowth.com/LinWiz/nfs_help.html for instructions.

Well, then it's also a clear minus for XFS, ext3 and possibly JFS (don't

So basically every journalling FS on Linux does not have a recover

I've done some reading, and found that you need LIVE support compiled

emerge unmerge realplayer mplayer
should do the trick.

What was your problem exactly? A realvideo file doesn't play? How does
it fail? Have you tried different realvideo files from different sources?
Are those files local or are you playing a stream from a realserver?

Please use the realplayer ebuild. The mplayer ebuild expects the
realplayer codecs in /opt/RealPlayer8/Codecs or

No, mplayer needs the real Realmedia codecs. That's what the configure

Here on my box Mplayer plays real *video* files without a problem -
havn't tested realaudio files though.
But AFAIK you *need* the RA codecs installed to enable Mplayer to play 
those files. So install the real player, re-emerge mplayer and it
should work.

It's not drastic. It's just to be on he safe side. Imageine you sync to

When using multiple servers ntp can detect servers with a wrong time and

rdate or ntpdate should only be run once at boot time.
*Never* run it periodically from cron or your system time my jump and
this will confuse some daemons and applications.

Nope, ntp is *exactly* for keeping your system clock in sync with UTC.

You *can* get a very high accuracy with ntp, but only when you spend $$$

Forget about the idea building a 3TB fs. It won't work - regardless of
the file system. Maximum guaranteed size is 1TB; 2TB might work if the
moon is in the right place and you throw something (whatever) over the

The reason are the limits in the current block device layer.

Ok, here I have to admit that I don't know either how to tell Mozilla to
use a different MUA than it's own. Maybe it's some obscure option in
~/.mozilla/default//prefs.js.
Is it actually doable in Windows (I'm not talking about IE, Mozilla)?

Well, I stumbled about your claim of an 'out-of-the-box' solution, which
there is neither on Linux nor on Windows.
(but let's not get too picky - I didn't mean to be offensive)

> type within you browser, and link to every media type in Linux that you
> want to use? I cannot. I'm asking if other people can. If you can,
> please share how you do this.

Ok, so let me say it like this:
Yes, I'm quite happy with browsing. There are certainly sites that don't
display well because they are tailored towards IE - not much you can do
about that, I'm afraid.
There are obscure plugins that don't exist for Linux - see above.
But the major ones are all available and if there isn't an ebuild for
that, than you have to download it from the specific web site and install
it manually.

Please don't get me wrong, but you don't come up with a
specific problem (besides Evolution). You ask 'can it be?' and I say 
'yes, for me it is'. Furthermore it is not clear to me, e.g. if you
already have installed Java and it's not always working the way it
should or if it's not working at all or not even installed.
Flash is available, even as ebuild, as another person wrote.

So, what exactly are you missing? If you answer this question, me and
others can actually help you.

As a starting point: have a look at plugger, which is a Mozilla plugin
that can link nearly any file type to a program of your choice. It comes
with reasonable defaults. As video application I recommend mplayer, for
sound xmms. There's even a special Mozilla plugin for mplayer, but I
don't know how usable it is.

Hope this helps a bit.

Cheers,
Juri

P.S.: I don't use Gentoo for desktop stuff - yet. Currently it's RedHat
(7.3), but that will change.

Actually, if you really think about it, it neither is in Windows. Last
time I installed one, I had to go to Macromedia (Flash), Adobe
(Acrobat-Reader), Apple (Quicktime), RealNetworks (Realplayer), Sun
(Java) to get the needed plugins. Oh, yeah, and to Microsoft

Now, how is that different from Linux?

Then either the servers you choose didn't allow you to get the time or
you configured ntpd wrong.
If the rc-script complains on stopping the ntp-daemon then ntpd is
either not running or the script is borked.

This is absolute nonsense. As other said in this thread (and I also did
in the message you quoted), ntpdate should only be run on system boot
time to initially set the correct time. It was never meant to keep the
time continously up-to-date.

What do you mean with 'ntpdate works better'?

I'm using ntpd here for over 5 years with a lot of success.
The main difference between ntpdate and ntpd is that ntpdate sets the
time once in a (possibly) huge jump and exits, whereas ntpd slowly ties
the local clock to the exteren reference clock.
Ntpdate is good to be run once - at boot time. Then don't run it again
or your sytem time may jump - which some daemons really don't like -
especially if the time jumps backwards.
Ntpd should be started with at least three external reference servers
and asures that your local clock is as much in sync with those servers
as possible.

Juri

Please don't send HTML mails and especially not HTML-only mails!

You might wan't to check the Adaptec Starfire based products. But most
of those multi-port cards need a 64bit PCI slot for full performance
(but they do work in normal PCI slots, too). For a high traffic firewall
I wouldn't even think of using any RTL based card - single or quad.

Juri

You might wan't to look at kdeveloper. It's a complete IDE (integrated
developement environment) for various programming languages; preferable
C++, as KDE and QT are programmed in C++.

Another option is glade.
