ntpd still not working After everyone's help, the damned thing still isn't working. I thought I was there when I got what looked like correct entries in the logfile, but one line was missing: 2 Nov 08:22:24 ntpd[3007]: synchronized to 65.255.217.202, stratum 3 I didn't get synchronized to any server, even though ntpq -p showed I was ... 8 Nov 2009 14:02

wxwidgets / truecrypt issues Chaps, I am having trouble with wxwidgets and truecrypt - they are slack x96_64 packages I build based on the slackbuilds and source at slacky.eu.

Upgrading gtk+ to 2.16 (or 2.18) in Slackware 13.0 I want to compile something which requires gtk+ 2.16 or greater.

So before I risk clobbering my syst... 30 Nov 2009 10:13 |
