[gentoo-user] Evolution: Why is main not going to the in box
With red hat I just pointed evolution to the mail spool and mail would be automatically moved to the evolution's local folder inbox I believe. Now is just stays in the maildir. I can read it in it's own section but I was wondering if this is normal. My mail is now being delivered and received through postfix as per the desktop set up instructions. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/desktop.xml 3 questions. 1) Has the default behavior changed with the newest evolution 2) Do most people leave mail in the maildir folder so other mail clients can read the mail as well? 3) Do most people use filters to move the mail the evolution folders?

[gentoo-user] cat cpuinfo /CFLAGS - is it realy an XP?
I was told this CPU was an XP by my vendor. Why does it not say in the
model name that it is an XP see cat cpuinfo bellow.
It is currently running redhat and I would like to install Gentoo on it
but I am wondering which optimization flags I should use?
I was hoping
CHOST=i686-pc-linux-gnu
CFLAGS=-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer
CXXFLAGS=-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer
would be safe and
CFLAGS=-march=athlon-xp -m3dnow -msse -mfpmath=sse -mmmx -O3
-pipe -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops
-frerun-cse-after-loop
-frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -maccumulate-outgoing-args
-ffast-math
-fprefetch-loop-arrays
CXXFLAGS=${CFLAGS}
would be pushing the limit.
Thanks in advance.

Maybe I am not reading this correctly but does this not mean that -fomit-frame-pointer is already on for -O3. from http://freesoftware.ircam.fr/mirrors/planetccrma/man/man1/gcc.1.html snip ... OPTIMIZATION OPTIONS These options control various sorts of optimizations: -O -O1 Optimize. Optimizing compilation takes somewhat more time, and a lot more memory for a large func tion. Without `-O', the compiler's goal is to reduce the cost of compilation and to make debugging produce the expected results. Statements are independent: if you stop the program with a breakpoint between statements, you can then assign a new value to any variable or change the program counter to any other statement in the function and get exactly the re sults you would expect from the source code. Without `-O', only variables declared register are allocated in registers. The resulting compiled code is a little worse than produced by PCC without `-O'. With `-O', the compiler tries to reduce code size and execution time. When you specify `-O', the two options `-fthread-jumps' and `-fdefer-pop' are turned on. On machines that have delay slots, the `-fde layed-branch' option is turned on. For those ma chines that can support debugging even without a frame pointer, the `-fomit-frame-pointer' option is turned on. On some machines other flags may also be turned on. .. snip > > ??? Yes it could but if I wanted to eliminate my CFLAGS as being the problem. As far as I know the most stable is -O2 if this doesn't work than the CFLAGS where not the problem. If I knew that CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe" had been tested I would have changed my CFLAGS to CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe" first instead of CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O2". As it is as far as I now there is no guarantee so I am starting at -O2 and may be looking at several recompiles after that as well. > > > Tom Veldhouse > > - Original Message - > From: "Robert Young" [EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Friday, August 08, 2003 11:39 AM > Subject: [gentoo-user] If is doesn't compile with -O3 -pipe is that not > a > BUG? > > > Just a thought > > > > I submitted a bug against Mozilla > > http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26068 > > > > It seems to be because of my CFLAGS > > CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" > > > > I changed them to > > CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O2 > > > > and it seems to be working so far. > > > > My question is: > > Should it not be one of Gentoo's goals to make even optimized > > systems stable. info2flags on my computer would have produced > > CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe" > > I believe. > > > > This goes against what I keep seeing people say that only > > CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O2" would be stable. > > > > To be considered stable currently my understanding is that the ebuild > > should not have a bug reported against it for so many days or week. > > Could another requirement be added that is must be shown to be able to > > > compile against the architecture that it considered stable in at least > > > with "-march=pentium3 -O2" and the flags produced by info2flags > > "-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe" in my case? > > > > Thanks. > > > > > > > > > > -- > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > > > > -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] If is doesn't compile with -O3 -pipe is that not a BUG?
Just a thought I submitted a bug against Mozilla http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26068 It seems to be because of my CFLAGS CFLAGS=-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer I changed them to CFLAGS=-march=pentium3 -O2 and it seems to be working so far. My question is: Should it not be one of Gentoo's goals to make even optimized systems stable. info2flags on my computer would have produced CFLAGS=-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe I believe. This goes against what I keep seeing people say that only CFLAGS=-march=pentium3 -O2 would be stable. To be considered stable currently my understanding is that the ebuild should not have a bug reported against it for so many days or week. Could another requirement be added that is must be shown to be able to compile against the architecture that it considered stable in at least with -march=pentium3 -O2 and the flags produced by info2flags -march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe in my case? Thanks. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Thomas you reply to is not set correctly so I am replying to my message with you content. Thomas T. Veldhouse wrote: Could be -fomit-frame-pointer ??? Yes it could but if I wanted to eliminate my CFLAGS as being the problem. As far as I know the most stable is -O2 if this doesn't work than the CFLAGS where not the problem. If I knew that CFLAGS=-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe had been tested I would have changed my CFLAGS to CFLAGS=-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe first instead of CFLAGS=-march=pentium3 -O2. As it is as far as I now there is no guarantee so I am starting at -O2 and may be looking at several recompiles after that as well.

I am not at home right now but I believe my kernel was compiled for a 386.

After 'emerge bittorrent', i restarted firebird and it automagically worked. The ebuild (im assuming) added the required line to mailcap (wrapped from mailer, sorry): application/x-bittorrent; /usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py '%s'; test=test -n $DISPLAY Note that the path is different in mine. Is yours really in /usr/bin/bittorrent/ ? No it is /usr/bin I miss typed my step 1). My real problem seemed to be I had %s not '%s' and the file was not of mime type x-bittorrent. I can start downloading torrent files form bittorrent's home page but not the file I was originally having problems with.

Any suggestions are unbelievable welcome! I just downloaded the kylix3_open.tar.gz and k3_open_update_2.tar.gz, ran the installer as non-root, and it seems to work OK. I don't suppose I'll use it much though, as the free version _still_ has no database support.
