I installed rTorrent from source code so I could patch it with the colour-patch on my Raspberry Pi the other day and I thought I would document it here as well.
This issue was driving me nuts the other day, I could not find a solution to it and I’m not knowledeable enough to have figured it out myself. All credits goes to a user called Sheogorath on the IRC-channel #Jekyll at freenode.net for helping me with this.
With the help of the tool qlop from the collection of utilities called q applets you can check how long it took to install a package in Gentoo. qlop reads from your log $EMERGE_LOG_DIR/emerge.log and extracts relevant information.
I’m using Gentoo with OpenRC and I use the tool pm-utils to suspend my computer. The only issue I have with their way of automatically running a command when you resume your computer is the fact that it’s executed as root.
By default the Extended-filesystem, more known as Ext2/4, reserves 5% of the filesystem blocks on the filesystem for privileged processes. It’s done to avoid filesystem fragmentation and to allow system daemons to continue to function correctly after non-privileged processes are prevented from writing to the filesystem due to a full filesystem.
When I compose a message in my e-mail client NeoMutt my editor Neovim inserts automatic line breaks after about 73 characters. I don’t like it at all.
I like Gentoo for several reasons! Two of the reasons is the fact that Gentoo makes my computer fun to use (again) and that their friendly and helpful community always brings a smile to my face.
I made this Gentoo vinyl decal at work the this week. It’s about 17x13 cm in size and it’s about as small as I dared to make it considering the thin line in the logo.
I had troubles with finding a high resolution and clean wallpaper with Gentoo, so I decided to try to make my own wallpaper.
Hello and welcome to my new home! You’re probably wondering about the new domain hunden.linuxkompis.se? Well. Just keep calm—nothing is happening to my little blog—there’s not going to be any Swedish content here. I do have a Swedish blog though, but that’s over at hund.linuxkompis.se.
