Hi! I'm very impressed with the progress Ogg Vorbis has made, ever since getting that T-shirt at LinuxWorld Expo :-) Using oggenc, I've run into a problem, though: "Mode initialisation failed: invalid parameters for bitrate" This happens when 2 conditions are true: 1) the input file has a sampling rate less than 44100, and 2) the -M parameter is used to specify a maximum

I've been planning to build a dual Opteron server for awhile. I'd like to get people's suggestions on a suitable motherboard. I've looked at the Tyan K8SE (S2892) and K8SRE (S2891) but would like to find more Linux-specific experiences with these boards. Some features I expect are at least 4 SATA (SATA-300?) ports, serial console support in the BIOS, USB 2.0 and IEEE-1394
