Argl, I have tried several kernels and settings with hdparm because my computer could not drive at any mode faster than udma2. Accessing the more detailed BIOS-Settings via Ctrl+F1 (Gigabyte 8KNXP-Board) and setting modes manually (not cable-select) fixed the problem. grml….
grml:/home/mika# hdparm -i /dev/hda /dev/hdb /dev/hdc /dev/hdd | grep udma
UDMA modes: udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 udma4 *udma5 udma6
UDMA modes: udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 udma4 *udma5
UDMA modes: udma0 udma1 *udma2
UDMA modes: udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 udma4 *udma5
grml:/home/mika#

Marianne and me took our cat called Rubeo to the veterinarian. I was afraid of some troubles with Rubeo but he didn’t cause any disasters ;) Rubeo has fleas and tapeworms and so he got some medicine. More details on Rubeo are available online: www.michael-prokop.at/rubeo/ (only in german – sorry).

Win2k3 sucks that much (ok, I don’t tell news), but at least netcraft’s web-server-survey shows that not all people are stupid enough to use IIS as a webserver.

I have to set up a firewall (bridged network – transparent firewall). I am using a Debian-based distribution from Austria (no, not where the kangaroos live ;)) called Gibraltar. Main documentation can be found in the mailinglist-archiv, Rene Mayrhofer from Gibraltar writes really nice and helpfull stuff. Gibraltar is really a great piece of Software! I should take some ideas for my own project called grml.

Someone in the TU-Graz-Newsgroups mentioned isync, a tool for synchronizing a remote IMAP mailbox with a local maildir-style mailbox. I should check this out because my mailsetup is IMAP and maildir ;).
