[hlds_linux] Re: [OT] Multi-threaded email client
Sylpheed in linux does what you want. It needs X and gtk. It handled threading fine but I get this list in digest form now because I think it's easier. Anyway, there's also a version called sylpheed-claws which is "unstable" but it works just fine, and livin on the edge is more fun anyway ;-) You can also try balsa which requires gnome - IIRC it handles threading just fine as well. -- "Software piracy harms everyone, including you.

Re: [hlds_linux] HZ=1000 and CPU-usage on FreeBSD 5.0
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Well its impossible that its lower the cpu burning, HZ=1000 does increse the cpu used. It tells to go for 1 ms vs 10 ms, so more thing to calculate more often = more cpu.Just think of it, its impossible to get ( with the same config) lower cpu usage.

Yeah, at the moment 5.0 is still catching up in some areas, but it should quickly improve in areas it needs too. Tomorrow there's a scheduled press release for FreeBSD 5.1. It should be on the ftp's already. There are some advancements, bug fixes, but most importantly - better SMP support. I would suggest checking it out, I plan on it. Here's the release schedule: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.1R/schedule.html.

[hlds_linux] Monitoring HLDS Servers with MRTG
Hi guys, I'm not sure if this is possible, but I was wondering how to go about getting MRTG to monitor my HLDS Servers that I'm running on my machine. I'm probably going to publish the live stats on our website, would anyone have a clue? Please help me setup this from scratch, or would you know any guides that would be able to tell me how to get it going for HLDS specifically. Thanks in advance :) Kind Regards, Network Director Head Administrator Byron 'WarHawk' Carceller Australian Professional Gaming Pty.

Re: [hlds_linux] HZ=1000 and CPU-usage on FreeBSD 5.0
It increases CPU usage for me too. I was using 5.0 but the high CPU use for NAT made me give it up, some time ago. Maybe now it's better. Looks like latency is lower under FreeBSD 4.8-stable as well, according to my customers.

lol, christ. > > Yah and my 486 still makes a great paper weight to, get with the times, > > not using a mouse doesn't make you cool anymore, just unproductive, Anyone else care to pull this statement apart? A 486 or a p75 is a great asset depending on what you want to do with it. If you just want to host a personal web page, or run an irc bouncer, or use it as a second screen to view IRC over (IRSSI > BitchX, by the way..) they are COST EFFECTIVE solutions. Why bother paying £700 ish for a new computer with all the bells and whistles when a 486 will do just as well?

It has to much automatisisms one has to deactivate before on can use it(at least it was 2 years ago). I will stick to my graphical Windows IRC client The rest of my apps run under windows.

I'm running a 15-Slot CS Server on my Celeron 1200, 256 MB Ram. I noticed increased CPU-usage since I run 3.1.1.1, but only around 10-20% more (depends on the map), so this is no real problem for me.
