I've just Replaygained several of my Vorbis albums with Vorbisgain, ranging from 80's metal to present day soft rock. What I don't understand is why does Vorbisgain actually make all tracks QUIETER? I see an average of -7db on most albums. And after that, not only are they substantially quieter than my MP3s (which is a pain), but it also fails to really "even out&quot...

...os 6 Server has no GUI" but I don't see how to attach my answer to that thread. I am running in Virtual Box on a Windows machine. When I changed my memory available from ? Gb to 1 Gb , and my video memory to 24Mb, my installation script went from an interface reminiscent of MS-DOS in the 80's to a nice GUI installation, and my number of packages installed went from 200 and some to 1400 and some. Apparently, the installation identifies what your box is capable of, and installs only what's appropriate. And doesn't tell you! Regards, Rick

Hi, folks, I've got a new Dell R730 server. My users have two Tesla K-80's in it. Then, they wanted to add video, for complicated reasons. Anyway, there's the onboard VGA; I just put in a Quadro K600 (they require DP, and this card offers that). Plug in a VGA monirot (the card even comes with two adaptors, one from large DP to DVI-D, and one DVI-D to VGA. (A...

...reen, and > server is, well... servicing those requests, from various clients. <snip> You misunderstand me: I understand the terminology, and why they chose it. I simply disagree with their choice, and have always found it confusing, esp. to anyone coming into it since, um, the mid/late 80's, when *everything* else in the world used the terminology the other way, from d/b to three-tiered architecture. mark

As I migrate away from Windows, I need to move the data out of my old rolodex program (written in Pascal back in the late 80's) into something that runs on Linux. The data is stored in csv lines in a text file. That old custom program output the data to rolodex cards on a pin-feed dot matrix printer. (Yea...I'm dating myself). Anyway, does anyone know of a decent rolodex program on linux that also has the capa...

...xpire so that it is registered at the patent office but not enforcable. No one else could patent it then. I get curious about the RLE patent. I heard Someone has a patent on run length encoding and I wonder how long they have had it because I remember RLE code running on a sinclair spectrum in the 80's before the whole patenting thing, so there is very clear prior art on this but someone claims to have a patent on this!? Does anyone know about this. love Freya __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores. Millions of Products. h...

I've got a dumb Western Electric payphone and some homebuilt hardware to control the coin relay which is accessible to Asterisk through the AGI interface. I'd like to be able to set the state of the coin relay to collect at the end of a call if a called party answers. [Hey, I admit this project is being persued just for the fun of it ] Looking through the documentation, there is a way to

Anyone here remember the old Talking Moose desktop toy from the 80's? For the unitiated, the Talking Moose was a simple applet on old Mac computers that periodically displayed an animated Bullwinkle-lookalike moose in the corner of the screen, spouting witty phrases or biting insults, as well as commenting on various activities like opening and closing program...

Hi, I've been writing a 80's era-flavor of QuickBASIC compiler based on LLVM, and it's come surprisingly far very quickly, LLVM is working great. GOSUB's, GOTO's, FIELD statements. I'm using Visual Studio 2010. Here's my setup: I use LLVM to turn my AST into code, which, during debugging I then execut...

...I'm asking - is it a good server? It's a nice rack mount, with a 10K rpm SCSI 36gb disk, and is weighing in at only ?600 ($1100). Built in slim line CD, PCI slots (one with an Ultra WD SCSI card)... Hmmm - I bought a Sun Netra X1 for the same price - and that's an empty box with an 80's looking motherboard (but alledgedly is only 2 years old, and is used for telephony)... I'll run Red Hat (probably)... I'm just ranting... Let me know :-) Ad.

...e and time reasons, and in the belief that commercially produced CDs when properly treated can be expected to have a very long life. However, I'm now questioning this assumption. I have a 2 CD set of "The Phantom of the Opera" on the Polydor label which I purchased new in the late 1980s. Both discs have always been stored together in the same case and played the same number of times on the same player; in short, they have the same history since pruchase. Both appear visually to be in the same excellent condition. But on my latest playing of them, the second CD has acquired some...

...first question is how do I do a keyword search of the ALL or any of the list archives, so often the same questions get asked... 2) I feel certain that once I am over the first few speed bumps, I can start cranking out dialplans, heck if I can write real-time process control code in fortran in the 80's... 3) I have reviewed the Digium classes, bootcamp etc and although they would all be a shotgun fix, I really think 20 hours or less of another user's time would get me where I want to be. 4) I am new, if I am in the wrong place, please, gently show me the door/where I chould be.

...n these servers ran Centos 4.x. I have noticed these problems with 5.1 and 5.2. I updated the servers from 5.1 to 5.2 yesterday. I actually have 3 servers set up the same way, and all 3 exhibit the same problem. iostat reports nothing unusual - the cpu idle percentage hovers around the high 80's to 90's. I am not seeing any network errors or collisions when viewed via ifconfig. These servers are on a gigabit network, connected via a good 3Com switch. I am getting transfer rates averaging around 55MB/sec using scp, so I don't think I have a network/wiring issue. The nic...

...'s usage is focused towards companies that sell audio > over the internet, for portable players, satellite communications... A-ha! That explains a lot. There used to be a project called FAAC but I presume it's gone. After seeing this 'patent war', I even began to beleive that 80's and 90's commercialist junk music is more or less the result of the marketing strategies of the record industry. They even choked out a talented artist like Prince (He wrote about MP3 the last year, I think)! Then, why should we bother with MP4 while Vorbis is aiming to cover whole the...
