Will, You might also look at Qemu (will have to google it, since I don''t have the URL at the moment). I have used successfully on Windows and Fedora to offer virtual machines for free, which I prefer over paying for VMWare. Drop me a line if you want more details.

"The upstream maintainer of yum, Seth Vidal, had the following to say about 'yum priorities' in September 2009: Gosh, I hope people do not set up yum priorities. There are so many things about priorities that make me cringe all over. It could just be that it reminds me of apt 'pinning' and that makes me want to hurl." This note was placed on the wiki

I am currently looking at putting together an Asterisk PBX system for my home office. One of the things I need is an expandable 2-line corded/cordless phone system. If I wasn't using Asterisk, I'd be getting one of these AT&T systems with 2 extra handsets. http://telephones.att.com/attui/shop/product_detail.cfm?itemID=ad53fe08-495e-41b6-b390-3aaa1c84cc40 So, the question is,

Hello again! thanks to all who helped with overlay plots - v. easy in the end. Anyway, another new(ba)bee type question - the gurus will cringe I'm sure! Q. simple R function mm <- function (u) { x <- u$GDP x m <- mean(x) m } When the function is called the vector "x" does not get printed from within the function, but the mean value "m" does, why? I

Hi, We are running a Rails application in development mode. Intermittenly we get an error on some pages, saying : undefine class/module User. If we refresh the page, the error goes away and we see the html correctly rendered. User is a model defined in the models directory and has been listed in application.rb as model :user. I am suprised by the fact that this happens only occasionally. Can

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 found this today, I am not a skype user but have read on chan_skype and don't like aspects of how it is implemented. My thoughts on it are only theoretical as I haven't used it I just cringe at adding X to a server. Anyhow there is a new project called sippyskype that appears to do a similar sort of thing with a couple differences. 1. Its

I have the text_field_with_auto_complete woking on my user DB using last_name. so looking for ''ivanoff'' works great, but I can''t find ''john''. Plus I like to have ''last_name, first_name'' show up in the dropdown. what I can''t figure out is how to concat first_name and last_name to make a name and use that to look it. working

Robert Cringely had an interesting item in his 2004 predictions: 12) Wal-Mart's entry into the music download business changes everything, and will undoubtedly take the leadership away from Apple. This wouldn't bother Apple if Wal-Mart would support its file standards so Wal-Mart music can play on iPods, but that won't happen. In order to compete for what really counts (iPod

We run an icecast server that several people in Louisville use for audio streaming. A number of people have expressed an interest in video streaming through it, too, but cringe when I talk about setting up a linux server for streaming. Has anyone managed to get streaming working from Windows media encoder using the directshow plug ins? I'd like to be able to tell people they can encode the

I have an Access application that work with some shared database file. The file is ~ 3 Mb. Since I have a Linux system with Samba, this application work very slow. I have multiple user with win95 on this file. Is there an option for allowing multiple access without cache ? any other idea ? Thanks. ___________________________________________________________ S?bastien HEITZMANN

I have a samba server configured at a clients office and sometimes when he is drilling down into directories in his "File Explorer" it stalls. I tail'ed the log files and I ran tcpdump, but I can't see anything that stands out. What should I look at? I am running Samba Version 2.2.3a-12.3 for Debian. brian -- Brian Lavender http://www.brie.com/brian/

I am not in favor of the change, which is a choice of rigor over usability. When I am developing code or functions I agree with this, and I view any warnings from R CMD check about shortened arguments as positive feedback. But 90% of my usage of R is day to day data analysis, interactive, at the keyboard. A lot of data sets that come to me have long variable names. What this change will mean

http://www.pbs.org/cringely/pulpit/pulpit20050512.html interesting comment this week about the Xbox - any intelligent thoughts here? I know the price point puts it above most users Asterisk outlay (I run mine on a $100 P3 -800) But interesting to see what happens if people start running video conferencing etc on their home asterisk servers, and lets face it where else can you buy this

Hi Rui, What's the intended advantage for compressing the debug sections? - (i) Improved link time through smaller IO / (ii) Improved Load / startup time for the debugger / (iii) Smaller exe with debug info for distribution / disk space? For i) and ii) how much this is worth it depends on balance of storage bandwidth to compression (i) / decompression (ii) bandwidth. For spinning drives it

I am probably going to do another release in the next couple of weeks. aside from the fixing a few minor bugs that have been reported, the next release will (hopefully) have two neat features: 1. support for wrapping FLAC streams in Ogg. thanks to Matt for the initial work. I have taken his patch and worked it into flac 1.0, which I will be checking in this week. 2. hopefully flac will build
