Can't get full functionality of an IBM Space Saver II (rt3200) I just got the keyboard which is almost perfect. The problem is that the numlock feature doesn't work in X. It doesn't have a numeric keypad. Instead you hit SHIFT+NUMLOCK to enable keypad entry on the typewriter keys. For all you 20 somethings out there it is important that you read the above. There is ... 19 Jul 2008 10:55
UPDATE on switching from Windows to Ubuntu Linux As I mentioned before, our Co is switching its server side apps, which suffered from low network perfromance of Windows, to Linux. So far the results are encouraging, as Linux is able to use the network cards, memory and CPU much more intensively, so we seem to be able to put a lot more apps on a Linux server, t... 19 Jul 2008 00:43
For the SEVENTH time, please, what distro for an old computer? [Problem solved: CentOS5.2] General Schvantzkopf- I thank you for your time. I am copying myself with this thread and intend to implement it when I'm at the target machine. Unfortunately, the six .ISO files that you referenced with a link would take several hours to download (for some reason, though I have DSL, and for some reason 'bit to... 17 Jul 2008 18:55
Looking for a NAS appliance that actually works I have tried several NAS appliances, the latest one being an HP Media Vault Pro mv5150 which will be the fourth box that I have to return. Among others, I have tried one from LaCie I am willing to spend between $400-$1,200. NFS is a requirement. In fact, I wish it came with no NetBIOS, which seems to be part... 21 Jul 2008 10:59
Help: Refresh frequency with Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Hello, When I finished installing this Ubuntu distribution I download the latest NVidia driver for my GeForce 2 GPU.

Downgrading from 64 bit to 32 bit? I am very seriously considering downgrading my Ubuntu Hardy 64 bit Linux installs to 32 bit, now that I have discovered that 32 bit can use more than 4 GB of RAM. My question is how hard is it to do. Ideally, I would love to just replace packages and reboot, or something like that, without a full reinstall. ... 20 Jul 2008 20:40

can cp/mv/rm be made case insensitive? Hi all. Another beginner question. For which I did do a thorough search before posting. Can any of the commands cp, mv or rm be made to act in a case- insensitive manner? I see no such switch listed in the man pages, so I have a strong suspicion the answer is a simple "no". And if my assumption is right, ... 25 Jul 2008 08:22
kernel 2.6.25.10 don't print accentuated characters Hi list, I compiled a 2.6.25.10 kernel out of the box (just validated netfilter support, and boot logo), but from then I can't get accentuated characters. It prints nothing (seems keyboard accentuated characters keys don't work) when I press on one... If I enter `printf %b '\0351'`, it prints a plain rectang... 30 Jul 2008 15:50 |
