Just so I got all this right. 1st. When I read a mail and then delete it it won't add to the mbox file and that is OK, since I only watch the mail one time. 2nd. The best thing I think is to use the "new" type of handling it all, so I delete the mail and the mbox file wont grow, but how do...
yeah, I use etc/aliases to forward root to my "normal" user and use that to read them and I also use the 'mail' command for that, I have no mail server. I only use this for checking the nightly things. The text in mail.rc is funny :P [b]# Do not forward to mbox by default since this is lik...
Before I upgraded the system from F8, all mails that I read (froward from root to basher52) automatically would be placed the some history place so if I quit mail using 'q' and go in there again, I got a reply telling me that no mail was found, but now they all just are left in there. Is this auto m...
It all seems to work now :) thx but should I just disable the ones I have in the yum.conf file? Shouldn't I remove those lines totally and move those lines into an own file under yum.repos.d/ I looked at a totally clean install of a F10 system that that yum.conf had only this in it: [main] cachedir=...
yum clean all, well here I just learned a new thing again :) thx I'll try that and I'll put a separate file in the .d/ for my repos. but... will they always be first in line before the original from fedora? oh btw, can I remove the remarked lines to "restore" the yum.conf file? UPDATE: yum...
well, then I might have done something I shouldn't, cos this IS the yum.conf file. All the files in the yum.repos.d/ is for fedora except one and that's pidgin.repo Can I just use the remarked line for the "original" values of this file? or have they changed? these: base: #mirrorlist=http:...
I get weird error in my own repository that says that a directory dosen't exist and that is correct but it has added some dir name that is not in there. Here's an example but it says this for all of them. Error Downloading Packages: xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi-7.2-6.fc9.noarch: failed to retrieve 10/i386/...
oh crap, me and my bad description enough lol. When will I learn :P If I use 'yum update' and that installs a new kernel version.... What ability do I have to have more kernels safe, and not removed from the system since I've seen that a new kernel version might get the whole system not working. *So...
I'm kinda ashamed that I don't remember this and I can't understand why I didn't wrote it down on my "little red bock of Linux" :( sorry I've tried to search this forum but have probably not found the correct words for it, cos I do think I've already asked it :( I'm on my knees.... how do ...
