    You know you can parse cpus from dmidecode in Linux also.

    Actually I just found VH-1 while flipping through the badjillions of cable channels and I noticed that is actually kind of like how MTV used to be in the 90's when I grew up. Playing music for several hours on end. And not just Britney and that other whats-her-face that is her slutty(ier) counterpart. They were playing Radiohead and The Clash. Maybe Im just caught it at a good hour I don't know.

    Most webservers, at least Apache and IIS answer queries terminated with two line feeds (\n\n). However the RFC says it should be carrige return, line feed twice (\r\n\r\n). I noticed slashdot don't answer if you don't send it the proper RFC way. Some other sites I tested that run slashcode answered with \n\n. Anyone know how they did this?

  23. Building from source on Mozilla Firebird Soars Into View · · Score: 5, Informative

    I just built Mozilla Firebird from source, actually i downloaded the source yesterday, but didn't want to start the build that late in the night because well... it takes a while to build ;)

    The reason I wanted to build from source is that I wanted nifty anti aliased fonts which the nightly builds doesn't offer.
    So...
    wget http://64.12.168.21/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/moz illa-source.tar.bz2
    tar -xjf mozilla-source.tar.bz2
    cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot checkout mozilla/browser mozilla/toolkit

    Now we are ready to choose build options.
    cd mozilla
    vi .mozconfig

    here is what my .mozconfig contains

    export MOZ_PHOENIX=1
    mk_add_options MOZ_PHOENIX=1
    ac_add_options --with-pthreads
    ac_add_options --disable-mailnews
    ac_add_options --disable-ldap
    ac_add_options --enable-xft
    ac_add_options --disable-jsd
    ac_add_options --enable-crypto
    ac_add_options --disable-accessibility
    ac_add_options --disable-composer
    ac_add_options --disable-tests
    ac_add_options --disable-debug
    ac_add_options --enable-optimize="-O3 -march=pentium3 -mfpmath=sse,387"
    ac_add_options --enable-strip

    All the --disable- options are beause I only want Firebird and not the composer, mail, news etc
    the --enable-xft is the important one if you want nice anti aliased fonts.
    My --enable-optimize is just some optimizations for my p4 (-march=pentium4 was buggy last time I tried). If you have an or lower than pentium3 then choose diffrent options (man gcc) or use the more standard "-O2"
    The MOZ_PHOENIX=1 is what tells the build process to build Phoenix (well Firebird its called now but the option is still MOZ_PHOENIX) and not the standard mozilla browser.
    To start building:
    make -f client.mk build

    This will take a really long time. Also the configure process might complain that you are missing some library like Xft or libIDL, in that case you will have to install it (apt-get install libidl0 libidl-dev)
    After the build is complete all the necessary stuff is in dist/bin/ so I copy that to /opt/firebird:
    cp -r -L dist/bin/ /opt/firebird

    (the -L option because the dir contains a lot of symlinks that will break if you don't use -L)
    Now you can run firebird with /opt/firebird/MozillaFirebird

    I don't know if this is exactly the official way to do it but that's how I did it.
    Good luck
