This is probably a dumb question, but I've looked around and I can't find anything on this. I'm using ntfs-3g now, from rpmforge, to access my M$ Window$ disks for offline backup and other such menial tasks, and I noticed that the ntfs file systems are not mounted automatically, but I have to mount them manually as ntfs-3g devices. I _thought_ when I installed the whole dkms-fuse and fuse-ntfs-3g packages from rpmforge that they would be more integrated into the system (i.e., direct automount)....

...o the problem, one would be to make febootstrap copy all of the modules to another location and gunzip them if they are zipped, then load the modules from the other location. Another solution would be to patch insmod to support gzipped kernel mods, and then the changes to febootstrap would be quite menial, and insmod would be more in line with current kernel capabilities. For now I have solved the problem with this script for the Arch Linux package, and while this is VERY dirty, it gets libguestfs running now on Arch: https://github.com/thatch45/archpkgs/blob/master/libguestfs/libguestfs.install S...

hi. i am currently adding celt support to netjack. very nice to see a free low-latency codec :) i currently dont require robustness against packet loss, because the sync code of netjack does not handle packet loss very gracefully. how much bandwidth is wasted for this feature ? is it sensible, to have the data downsampled berfore encoding , in order to reduce bandwidth ? i suspect that just

...for almost 2. I work in the IT department of a medium-sized unit of a global advertising company. We have a Netware and NT environment with a bit of Linux. We installed a 280GB IDE Samba archive server (rare usage) and a 15GB SCSI Mac/Samba file server (medium usage). We also use Samba for more menial tasks like smbmounts and file transfers. We thought we were comfortable with Samba. We knew we were comfortable with other types of file servers.
