Hi, i too played with mkdiskimage in order to get more Linux examples. When i applied it to a real 2 GB stick with write speed 4 MB/s i had enough time to add some pacifier code to the big zeroizer loop. (-s does not prevent zeroizing on block device. Probably because truncate() fails.) My pacifier is combined with what Perl advised me when i tried "fsync(OUTPUT);". Of course this

Perhaps it could be useful to base it on the syslinux4-xx branch: http://git.zytor.com/?p=syslinux/syslinux.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/sysl inux-4.xx;hb=syslinux-4.xx http://git.zytor.com/?p=syslinux/syslinux.git;a=blob_plain;f=utils/mkd

But indeed: -s should skip zeroizing,

Hi, I''m trying to be really, really sure that a specific service is not running. The central part of this looks like that: service { ''foo'': ensure => stopped, enable => false } -> package { ''foo'': ensure => purged } The astute reader will notice that on the second run puppet will complain that the init script for foo is

Is it possible to run MS Word on a LInux box without Windows installed? If so, would someone be willing to help me get it running? I would like to use MS Word ver 7, but want nothing to do with Windoze. Word Perfect 8 for Linux can get testy at times. cedric

I have W95 on CD, but not installed. Is it possible to get 'dll' files off the CD?

I just installed SuSE 7.3 linux including the supplied wine distro. I'm trying to run a single board computer from Zworld called the Rabbit. The specific app name is dcrab619.exe. The gui comes up with no problem but when it tries to talk to the serial port I get these messages from wine: err:string:CompareStringA (s1=(null),s2=""...): Invalide NULL string

Hi. I am trying to find calls of idct/fdct.c functions by tracing png2theora.c calls. But found only: analyze.c:oc_dct_cost2() Where and when idct/fdct/mmxidct/mmxfdct.c functions are used?

I simply tried another approach to pacify the resource checker. However, there is some difference. nvidiafb cannot access the resources if IORESOURCE_BUSY is used. It's not that it matters for me. nvidiafb fails on my hardware anyway and I don't need it when I already have simplefb and nouveau. But I think we should have a clo...
