Xen HVM cpuid problem
...r registers. Guests OS''s and cpuid tools in HVM which query for cpuid Fn 0000.0000 %eax and 8000.0000 %eax, see the value 0 and think, Xen emulates oldish 386/486 CPUs. This leads to strange boot failures, "your CPU does not support long mode" or "minimum required CPU is a 486DX CPU" when launching 32bit or 64bit HVM guests. To reproduce this, cpuid is NOT explicitely configured in the guest config file. BTW: Is there a reason for not handling cpuid in one central place?

A distro around Shorewall
Hi all, Currently at work we use a commercial product called "Gnatbox", which, I believe, is a BSD derivative running on a floppy disk. They have a pretty UI and all, but I''d feel much safer/happier with a GNU/Linux box and Shorewall doing the same thing. In fact, I''m doing something very close to this at home using Openwrt and Shorewall on my WRT54G router, but I

win98 vs win95 with TCP/IP
You wrote: I have been disappointed that I can't use Linux+Samba as an alternative to a Win9x or NT server for our GP medical practice. The software we need runs in win9x. We crave stability. But Linux+Samba is just much slower as a file server. It's normally quite fast: are you running over a dial-up network, requiring you to adust MTU's for speed??? If not, try ``socket

slow sparc questions
I've got a couple of SPARCstation 2s (about as fast as a fast 486, for most thing) that I'm going to be using for some testing. I realize that these machines are a bit slow, but when connecting via OpenSSH, it's MUCH slower than connecting to my 486-DX 50. The point where it waits is just after "debug: Sent encrypted session key.". The pause is for about 10 seconds, while

Compression Artifacts at -q 5. Help!
...ing quiet passages. (That and the pun are the reasons for the choice in song...) It's definitely the compression process. The ripped wav is indistinguishable from the CD, even with a pair of sexy old Acoustic Research AR-4x speakers. My configuration? Junker machines ranging from a 486DX-33 to a Pentium 166 (no MMX). Generic hardware, etc. Common to all of them: - Red Hat 6.2 - because it's quick and easy to install, and doesn't balk about the 16 megs of 30 pin RAM on the 486... - No X. - Samba server allowing me to conveniently test the files in situ,...

Firewall frustration
Well FWbuilder is NOT easy. The documentation does not match the current GUI. Now the box is locked up. I will have to pull it again, hook it up to a kybd/VGA and reset iptables.... Maybe Shoreline with webmin.... Problem is I want a REAL router/firewall with little work. Both public and private nets have routable addresses. No NATing for me! I just help write the RFC ;) And all the

Cron daemon with better precision?
Greetings list- I'm on the hunt for a cron scheduler that supports definitions to the second. Obviously, every cron daemon supports minute/hour/etc but I have a special application that requires finer granularity.

Vorbis on Legacy hardware
I'm currently in the process of making a linux distro made specifically to run on legacy hardware. My test system is a compaq 486/33. I was wondering if anyone has tried playing ogg vorbis on a system this old. Does it play without skipping or anything? If so, are there any really small and efficient media players that would run on this kind of hardware? If that doesn't work I

Running CentOS on very old hardware
A friend has an old Pentium-133 laptop with 32MB of memory and a 1.3 GB hard disk that he wants to use as a web server for a very small community. Will CentOS (or any other RHEL derived distribution for that matter) install and run with acceptable performance on such a system, or will a specialized distribution like Damn Small Linux be a better choice? In this case, disk space is not a big

Browsing
I am configuring Linux (2.0.33) as a local router. I am wanting to use Samba (1.9.18p3) to "manage" the browse lists on my network so that computers on each subnet can browse resources on the other subnets. My local network consists of Win95 and NT40 workstations with NT40 servers. My test configuration consists one token ring segment on one side of the Samba box (network .192) and
