ssh feature - ignore colon in host name
...d scp within a few minutes, so I might do this... scp myfile user at host.example.com: ssh user at host.example.com it would make life a lot easier if I could type scp myfile user at host.example.com: ssh !$ or sometimes I simply copy too much and paste in host name and then have the faff of removing it. ok, that's a particularly bad example of being lazy :-) for the above to work, ssh would have to ignore the colon, that's all. I don't think the colon can have any significance in the hostname, so throwing it away wouldn't be harmful!? I could write a wrapper scrip...

Updated mirrorlist for 4.9 in vault?
...l repo. Because 4.9 has been moved to vault, as described by Johnny in http://www.linux-archive.org/centos/638644-centos4-rhel4-upstream-effective-eol.html, the mirrorlist file basically contains invalid information. http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=4.9&arch=i386&repo=os To avoid the faff of having to edit the CentOS-Base.repo file, is there any reason that the mirrorlist files couldn't be updated to point to the available mirrors of vault.centos.org? It would make things SO much easier! Cheers Tony -- Tony Mountifield Work: tony at softins.co.uk - http://www.softins.co.uk Pla...

SNMP on HP UPS
We use HP R5500XR UPS, and they all have SNMP cards. These devices supposedly use the IETF MIB, but in order to get the SNMP driver to talk to them I have had to hack it slightly. I'd like to see these UPS proplerly supported in the official nut release (mostly so I don't have to faff around patching and repackaging when a new version comes out) and would be more than happy to provide patches, but I'd like to see if anyone has an opinion regarding these fixes. Simply changing ietfmib.h (which is all I have had to do to get it to work) would probably break it for other SNMP U...

Vioplot / list help
...Error in Summary.factor(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, : min not meaningful for factors I tried making columns by year: ys=with(dists,by(V2,V1,function(x) x)) or even making that into a matrix: ysm<-as.matrix(ys,ncols=11) But still vioplot isn't happy. After a bit of faff, I end up with: with(dists,vioplot(dists[V1==1999,2],dists[V1==2000,2],dists[V1==2001,2], dists[V1==2002,2],dists[V1==2003,2],dists[V1==2004,2],dists[V1==2005,2], dists[V1==2006,2],dists[V1==2007,2],dists[V1==2008,2],dists[V1==2009,2], names=1999:2009)) ...but this is clearly awful.

...roup that is known to AD, it first needs to created as an AD > group and then given a gidNumber attribute, or use the 'rid' backend on a > domain member. But people with a long-established Unix authentication system are not going to do this: duplicating all the Unix groups in AD is a faff and will only lead to problems in the long run when they aren't kept in sync. The answer is to use the username map (which translates the AD identities into Unix ones); it just happens not to work properly in 3.6.23. Ian Collier.

Vestal Versions Related Records
I need to keep version of a model Client: has_many :product_clients has_many :products, :through => :product_clients The question is what is the best way of saving versions of the association. Can I make the association using the client.version.id rather than the client.id? Or should I use a bit mask? Any thoughts much appreciated, Mike -- You received this message because you are

[LLVMdev] [PATCH] x86/asm: avoid mnemonics without type suffix
...(this part of) the kernel. There is, however, a potential optimisation here for someone who knows their inline asm. Currently "set_bit(63, addr)" will use the "r" version of the constraint even on amd64 targets, materialising 63 with a "movl". With sufficiently clever faff, it could use "btsq" instead. Cheers. Tim.

Chinese, Japanese, Korean Tokenizer.
Hi, I am looking for Chinese Japanese and Korean tokenizer that could can be use to tokenize terms for CJK languages. I am not very familiar with these languages however I think that these languages contains one or more words in one symbol which it make more difficult to tokenize into searchable terms. Lucene has CJK Tokenizer ... and I am looking around if there is some open source that we

1c54d77 (x86: partial unification of asm-x86/bitops.h, 2008-01-30) changed a bunch of btrl/btsl instructions to btr/bts, with the following justification: The inline assembly for the bit operations has been changed to remove explicit sizing hints on the instructions, so the assembler will pick the appropriate instruction forms depending on the architecture and the context.

Notes from Xen BoF at Debconf15
Xen upstream BoF ================ We had a discussion around Xen and packaging at Debian's annual developer conference (Debconf) a few weeks back: https://summit.debconf.org/debconf15/meeting/279/xen-upstream-bof/ These are my notes, I think there is probably stuff of interest to most distro people, not just Debian folks. The session was scheduled in a small, out of the way, room. Around 2

Variable Scoping = Root Canal
I''ve been struggling with puppet variable scope all day, well, for several months actually. I think I have pretty simple requirements. For any given node, I want to be able to set a series of variables and include a set of classes, based on three different aspects of a node, being physical location, operating system, and function. If I try and do this with classes, I find that variables

[PATCH+RFC+HACK 00/16] xen: arm initial support for xgene arm64 platform
I''m afraid this series is rather a grab bag and it is distressingly large at this stage. With this series I can boot an Xgene board until it fails to find its SATA controller. This is a dom0 issue for which patches are pending from APM (/me nudges Anup). As well as the APM specific platform stuff there are also some generic improvements which were either necessary or useful during this
