How do you specify which jvm you want Firefox to use?

You can control what it sees [on Gentoo] by doing:
root# eselect java-nsplugin list
root# eselect java-nsplugin set sun-jdk-1.5
Pretty sweet,

How do you avoid restarting Apache all the time when working with mod_python?
First put this in your Apache vhost configuration:
PythonAutoReload On
PythonDebug On
Then make sure Apache isn't running, and start it up manually telling it to run as a single process. Here's how I do it on Gentoo Linux:

Apache slow to respond due to lack of entropy - and it says no PID file when starting?
If Apache2:
* accepts connections
* does not respond to clients
* creates exactly one process
* is not stopped by
Then you probably don't have enough entropy in your system. This happens when the computer sits idle much of the time.

What do the Gentoo USE flag colors mean as seen in portage with emerge -uDav?
- Red: this means the flag is enabled
- Blue: this means the flag is disabled (-)

In Gentoo land, this means you emerged net-libs/courier-authlib with the "postgres" use flag enabled. Courier's authentication logic essentially looks to several "data stores" to use for authentication. The problem is that you're rig thinks it shou
