• Plugins arent always a good choice

  
  Flameeyes's Weblog : — Authority: 127
  I’ve been saying this for quite a while, probably one of the most on-topic post has been written a few months ago but there are some indications about it in posts about xine and other again. I used to be an enthusiast about plugin interfaces; with time, though, I started having more and more doubts about ...

• xf86-input-keyboard and xf86-input-mouse masked

  
  LinuxQuestions.org — Authority: 176
  An update of xorg has failed to build what appear to be the latest versions of xf86-input-keyboard and xf86-input-mouse. As a result the desktop appears but does not respond to either the mouse or keyboard. There are .ebuild files for xf86-input-keyboard-1.4.0 and xf86-input-mouse-1.5.0, but both are masked for what ...

  Flameeyes's Weblog : — Authority: 127
  I’ve been not working on the tinderbox lately because my “daily job” (which is not really daily) swamped me out badly. Since this week I’m going to London to take some days off, I’ll probably get back to the tinderbox after that. For the next ride of the tinderbox, there is at least one thing that’s ...

• Distributions *are* the strength of Linux

  
  Flameeyes's Weblog : — Authority: 127
  People disagree, some people think that no operating system has any need for distributions, with all their difference and their central repositories that aren’t as central. But one of the thing that impress most the users who switch is, in many cases (at least that I could look at myself) the presence of ...

  Flameeyes's Weblog : — Authority: 127
  I’ve been first linked the FatELF project in late October by our very own solar; I wanted to write some commentary about it but I couldn’t find the time; today the news is that the author gave up on it after both Linux kernel and GLIBC developer dissed his idea. The post where he noted his intention to ...

• The PIE is not exactly a lie…

  
  Flameeyes's Weblog : — Authority: 127
  One very interesting misconception related to Gentoo, and especially the hardened sub-profile, is related to the PIE ( Position-Independent Executable ) support. This is probably due to the fact that up to now the hardened profile always contained PIE support, and since it relates directly to PIC ( ...

  Funtoo by Daniel Robbins — Authority: 91
  So, what I was going to do this weekend was re-work how our git branches are organized, creating a testing branch called "too", and work on getting the new Funtoo/OpenRC network scripts finalized. What I *actually* did was try to reload one of my servers -- and ran into lots of problems. This process actually started ...

• Experiencing Sabayon 5, oh!

  
  tuxmachines.org - Do you waddle the waddle? — Authority: 457
  linuxforu.com: Sabayon’s strength has always been to showcase the power of FOSS on the desktop. Once upon a time, it used to come preinstalled with Linux-compatible games. But the current releases have done away with the idea of showcasing the games factor and concentrate on giving an out-of-the box desktop ...

• Changes in the comment antispam

  
  Flameeyes's Weblog : — Authority: 127
  You probably remember the series of posts I already wrote about my antispam that uses the User-agent field to reject at the source a number of comments that are likely to be spam. The idea is definitely working right, just yesterday it filtered out 134 spam comments (no false positives, after a quick check), and at ...

• proper use of USE flags

  
  LinuxQuestions.org — Authority: 176
  Gentoo is awesome, but I really have no idea if I am taking full advantage of the use flags. Normally I look at all the available use flags from the Gentoo website and stick every use flag I think I need into the /etc/make.conf file. The only problem with this is that a lot of packages have use flags enabled when they ...
