My previously mentioned solution for the steadily growing .xsession-errors didn't work out. It gave me some more time to take breath - but it was no sustainable solution. .xsession-errors still grew at astonishing rates, mostly due to inotify commenting every single file-change there.

My bro had the same problem and due to his pragmatics and fatalism immediately recognized and implemented the definitive solution. I now decided to do the same:

# ln -s /dev/null ~/.xsession-errors

... since three days now - and actually it's not really over. On IRC the people still meet and already start talking about the next Trollparties. It seems, that south-america will be a hotspot for the next trollings... ;)

I for my part had a pretty good troll in TikiWiki CVS improving freetag-browsing with AJAX to make sort- and searchable paginated listings of results. On Saturday I decided to stay awake longer after I discovered the Troll-techno-party-live-stream with MC acracia (Yes, she apparantly has some Ragga-skills, too ;) ).

I have to dive into learning now, tests are approaching at an incredible speed. One and a half week to go..

That AJAX stuff has gotten pretty good though (ehem, self-praise, yeah, but I like the stuff ;) ) and I am eager to code it further. It will be my evening-project, hopefully I get my time sorted and my problems with falling asleep, too.

RMS was yesterday's special guest at the Trollparty tent in Caracas. He speaks fluent spanish, I was pretty surprised by that. And he kept saying "GNU con Linux" - what made me wonder if 'con' means 'slash'.. ;)
Luciash's theory was though, that he just repeats it as a magic formula. :)

Well, like I wrote before, I recompiled all my KDE packages without the debug USE-flag. Sadly that didn't help anything! :( As a matter of fact it even managed to run my new HDD full - with 270 GB of .xsession-errors created in less than a day.

The solution was to emerge kdebugdialog. With this little tool you can set the debug-output of your KDE programs. After telling KMail not to cry about it's own incapability in .xsession-errors I am much happier and my HDD much emptier. :)
