Hi, I was running the Ubuntu dovecot package until now, and decided to upgrade because of an issue with Thunderbird. I downloaded and compiled 1.0.8, and it's not starting up. The error I'm getting is: Dec 2 15:35:04 jfootoo dovecot: auth(default): Unknown passdb driver 'pam' (typo, or Dovecot was built without support for it? Check with dovecot --build-options) D I used

...that there is an entire extra copy of the vclock reading code in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c. And the purpose of that code is very, very opaque. Can one of you explain what the code is even doing? From a couple of attempts to read through it, it's a whole bunch of probably-extremely-buggy code that, drumroll please, tries to atomically read the TSC value and the time. And decide whether the result is "based on the TSC". And then synthesizes a TSC-to-ns multiplier and shift, based on *something other than the actual multiply and shift used*. IOW, unless I'm totally misunderstanding it,...

Hello all -- And a special greeting to those of you who were at RailsConf 2006 in Chicago. You know how great the event was, and how great the European Rails Conference is going to be in London in September! We''re now accepting proposals for talks at the European Rails Conference, to be held September 14-15 in London. Accepted speakers will get free admission to the conference.

...ncasts.visualjquery.com/demo1/ I''ve posted a bunch about the Admin Console, but it''s essentially an automated scaffold that works as an engine. The screencast is a quick overview of the minor things you''ll need to do in models, environment.rb, and others, as well as ::drumroll:: a demo of the console in action. Find out more about the Admin Console at http://trac.visualjquery.com/admin_console -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I'm trying to come to a decision between CentOS 4.2 and Fedora Core 4 for use on a server. One of the things the server will be serving is X desktops so there are some advantages to Fedora. However, one thing I can't help but notice is that the patch volume for FC4 from Oct 11 2005 thru the present compared to CentOS 4.2 for the same period is about 5 times greater. In fact, since

Hi all, Could anyone point me to one or more examples in the R sources of a C function that is called without knowing in advance what will be the length (say) of the output vector? To make myself clearer, we have a C function that computes probabilities until their sum gets "close enough" to 1. Hence, the number of probabilities is not known in advance. I would like to have an

The netfilter project presents: nftables 0.2 This release contains a rather large number of bug fixes, syntax cleanups, new features, support for all new features contained in the recent 3.14 kernel release as well as *drumroll* documentation. Syntax changes ============== * More consistency in data type names Data type names are used in set declarations. All address related types now follow the naming scheme *_addr, all protocol related types *_proto and the network interface related type iface_*. The arphrd ty...

Matt attempted to add CLOCK_TAI support to the VDSO clock_gettime() implementation, which extended the clockid switch case and added yet another slightly different copy of the same code. Especially the extended switch case is problematic as the compiler tends to generate a jump table which then requires to use retpolines. If jump tables are disabled it adds yet another conditional to the existing
