...n fact dead as a technical category? If not, why not? Oh, and this, too: 1c: RS232C, on consumer devices, in 2009? Ferfuckssake, *why*? It's not like USB chips are expensive or anything. I know all about this from GPS-land, actually; pl2303s are so cheap that even if the vendors wanted to retread their RS232 designs, the cost of goods to refit them with USB-to-serial conversion is close to zip. Does anyone have a clue why this interface type didn't die five years ago? -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S. Raymond</a> It will be of little avail to the...

This is a new post, but its really a three-time retread. I hope someone has a clue on this, as it could be helpful in many circumstances: I am looking for a way to dial 'special' an extension (in house, like 102), which are all Polycom IP. I'd like to ring the extension as normal, but have the option of, while the line is ringing, to pres...

[cross-posted from www.tek-tips.com] Dear samba forum, I've now wasted most of a weekend on this issue, so now it's time to swallow my pride and ask for help! Background: My main home computer died. I can't afford to replace it right now, so I'm attempting to retread an old AMD PC into a linux print/file server. Clients are a mixed bag of Windows XP home/professional PCs. The printer is an HP Officejet 6210 multifunction print/scan/fax. I'm only attempting to get basic printing working between Windows/Linux. File shares to the PCs are working great. The pr...

...have to change their parsing of the success message dramatically after sending each extension request message (and will have to track which ext they last sent etc), since it doesn't include enough information in the message itself any more to figure out what it should contain. Sorry if I'm retreading on a discussion that's already been had (I did search this list but couldn't find anything) Thanks!

[pardon me if this retreads some ground, but I'm just getting up to speed on this issue] so am I to understand -- application/ogg is for downloading, and will invoke an app that supposedly can parse *any* ogg file -- audio/vorbis is for streaming -- but this is narrowly defined as vorbis audio only. Presumably the thi...

Hi, I've used mdadm for years now to manage software raids. The task of using fdisk to first create partitions on a spare drive sitting on a shelf (raid 0 were my 1st of 2 drives failed) is kind of bugging me now. After using fdisk to create the same partition layout on the new drive as is on the existing drive and then using mdadm to finish every thing up is a little tedious. Any
