Plextor PX-712A DVD+-RW can't write in CentOS 5.4 I previously had this PX-712A DVD-RW in a CentOS 5.3 machine, and burned a DVD ISO to a DVD+R disk, so I know it worked. A new machine was built with that DVD image, "yum upgrade"d to CentOS 5.4 and then the PX-712A was transplanted to the new machine. Now it doesn't write, and I would be grateful for your hel... 15 Nov 2009 11:09
Seeking suggestions for site search As the title states, I'm seeking suggestions for a site search engine to search wikis, regular web sites, and possibly CVS. At the highest level, the requirements are: 1. Must be open source & fee-free 2. Must not be Java or C/C++ (not debatable, don't try) 3.

THis has a lot of flaws. I've been thinking of adding some sort of two- factor authentication solution. I've used RSA-Secure IDs in the past but those seem designed ... 10 Oct 2009 10:31
KDE and Gnome Sidney Lambe schrieb: Thank goodness we have alternatives. We sure do. We can be real Linux runners and ignore the corporate sellouts who are trying to turn Linux into a clone of Windows and run Linux from the command line within the GUI. Yes, I can run a Linux shell on every OS. If the shell is ... 11 Oct 2009 18:13

Bash history weirdness Hi, Bash's history command is behaving oddly. If I do "history -w" then it writes the current history to ~/.bash_history as expected. But if I do "history -a" then ~/.bash_history doesn't get changed, and from the modification time it hasn't been touched at all. Any ideas for what might be causing this? A... 4 Oct 2009 12:07 |
