Configuration
Hardened Gentoo
The latest versions provide more functionality, plugins and nice features; however, the MPROTECT PaX flag is disabled in unstable ebuilds because of Flash. If you don't use Flash, enable the MPROTECT flag with the following command:
root #
paxctl -M /usr/bin/falkon
It will enable secure memory protections again. Check PaX flags with this command:
root #
paxctl -v /usr/bin/falkon
