OT Sorta: Strouhal Numbers, Unladen Swallows and Monthy Python....
...p://www.nature.com/cgi-taf/DynaPage.taf?file=/nature/journal/v425/n6959/abs/nature02000_fs.html
Perhaps more importantly, Corum has attempted to address an "age old"
question raised in the famously funny film "Monty Python and the Holy
Grail". The question:
"What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?"
Hence, the article:
Estimating the Airspeed Velocity of an Unladen Swallow
http://www.style.org/unladenswallow/
For those who are Monty Python fans, enjoy... :-)
Best regards,

KDE login screen configuration problems
...Gnome.
However, when I checked my CentOS 6.3 system, there was no such file, no
/etc/sysconfig/desktop. I've not been able to find any method to enable
KDE login in 6.3. The method mentioned in the earlier reply was for
CentOS 5, not 6.
Any further suggestions?

Question: How to utilize multi-core CPUs
...ox. The model only indicated
dual core but CentOS is telling me there are four. This is the first
multi-core Linux installation I've had. What is the best way to utilize
the multi-core CPUs? I'd like to distribute the load but I'm unsure how
to do that.

CentOS 6.3 - KDE login screen configuration problems
Hello,
We generally use CentOS for some servers, and so do not use a GUI
interface. However, I have recently installed CentOS 6.3 onto a PC with
KDE. I am familiar with KDE as I use it with Fedora for my work PC.
The problem is that we would like to configure the login screen, so that
it does not show the user list, that it does not allow the shutdown or
reboot commands (from the login screen),

X/Display resolution configuration
...00x900 capability. However when I logout and then log
back in the resolution changes to 1280x1024. When I looked at the
xorg.conf.d directory it was empty---both in /etc and in /usr/share.
Where is xorg.conf and it's monitor section now? BTW, I'm use KDE.

Upgrade from CentOS 6.x to 7
Can I directly upgrade (update?) from my current 6.5 box to version 7?
Or, must I wipe my drives and install from scratch?

Backup of large filesystems >500GB
...ile system.
Dump and tar both error out as exceeding the maximum size. Neither will
backup just the video directory (the largest) even with compression.
Backup will be to an external (USB) removable HD.
Can any suggest a prog or a method to back up this filesystem?
