I had _just_ found what looked like an excellent rails introduction last night, and now I can''t for the life of me find it again... I thought the link was very recently just posted either here or on ruby-talk, but I haven''t been able to find such a post -argh! Worst thing is, I can''t provide any real descriptive info to help ring a bell... all I know is that it looked pretty lengthy, and that it was a sort of "ground up" tutorial for beginners to rails. I can''t recall whether it was on rubyonrails.org, but I can no longer find it. Can anyone help? I know it''s not much to go on... THanks, Corey -- "God is an invention of Man.

The problem that prevented me from reading it last night still exists though - does anyone else experience this: it only loads a small fraction of the page, and then the browser just stalls indefinitely... ( I''ve tried on both konqueror and firefox ) Thanks again!

I tried on two different pc''s and I get the same result on each - both using two different browsers. Both pc''s are running gentoo linux and kde 3.3.1. I rebooted another pc to windows and was able to view that url fine w/ both firefox and ie.... so obviously there''s something freakish going on w/ my particular environment. I don''t want to noise-up the list - obviously the problem''s on my end - but what version of kde and linux are you running?

this very much sounds like you use dsl, a router and have an MTU problem. try : ifconfig eth0 mtu 1492 ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth0 up On Sat, 30 Oct 2004 15:28:56 -0700, Corey <corey_s-r9/a4iiAUwJeoWH0uzbU5w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> On Saturday 30 October 2004 02:04 pm, Tobias Luetke wrote: > > it loads fine for me in a second > > > > Strangeness... > > I tried on two different pc''s and I get the same result on each - > both using two different browsers.

I ran a traceroute, which doesn''t look too healthy - it delays for a long while at bvl1-10.mc.videotron.ca and then again indefinitely at 24.200.240.133... Really strange - thanks very much for the assistance; I''ll just go and save the page under windoze and just transfer it back to my linux partition as a file. I''ll leave this one for the X-Files for now... mainly ''cuz I don''t want to get too far offtopic. Maybe after a new kernel recompile, or an ''emerge -u world'' it''ll "fix itself"... <grin> Beers!
