Semi-OT: install python package in userspace
...hallenge some of the users > about the more dangerous sudo's they try, inevitably they say they > got the command from the net, and by that they usually mean Ubuntu > forums. Whether the instructions come from the Ubuntu forums or not, we regularly experience the same thing: users unthinkingly following instructions in a REAME or posted on a web page. My experience suggests these folks are just on autopilot. We don't even follow up any more on most of the alerts; they'll ask us if it's important. So we rarely give out sudo on shared systems and when we do there's...

Streaming MP3 issues with Windows Media Player
...em to be consistent regarding long buffer time, odd drop outs, long reconnect times, etc. Normally, I refer folks to one of the infinitely better players out there, but now the issue seems to be "but IT controls my computer and what I install on it". So I'm looking into doing the unthinkable, and providing better support of WMP. Are these issues with WMP common? Are there solutions/work-arounds that we can do server side to solve them? I apologize if this is a bit vague, but I'm still trying to figure out where to start. I've done a bit of searching online, but haven...

Monitoring Recomendations
I have a client that I have installed Dovecot 1.0.1 for is having some performance issues. Especially when using IMAP from various Outlook clients. I have TLS installed and all the IMAP connections are secured. I'm wondering is anyone has any recommendations for monitoring dovecot performance. I'd like to try and nail down where the real performance issues are. I suspect

Problem with mouse and keyboard
This just started on my laptop yesterday. My mouse wants to go to the lower left corner of my screen, this seems to be triggered by using the keyboard. Once it is on its way I just have to wait for it to stop so I can move it where I need it or it will just drift back to that corner. I have tried several mice as well as just the onboard touchpad. I am on 4.1 running nightly updates. Thanks

Mounting smbfs as guest at boot time
...to do it at boot time if possible. I would like to do it as the user 'guest' to avoid all passwords. I don't want to learn about credentials or anything win-centric like that if I can avoid it, and I also hope that 'guest' is a restricted user who can't do much damage if the unthinkable occurs (somebody r00ts the web server - though this probably won't afford any real protection). __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

[LLVMdev] IMPORTANT: Switch-over to new C front-end on X86
...or alias, or whatever you use) to point to ~lattner/local/x86/llvm-gcc/bin/gcc 2. Add the following environment variable to your startup scripts: setenv LLVM_LIB_SEARCH_PATH /home/vadve/lattner/local/x86/llvm-gcc/bytecode-libs If you don't do this, things will probably break in horrible, unthinkable ways (or maybe not, but they certainly won't work nicely). If you're curious, the environment variable specifies the directory to use for the LLVM equivalent of /usr/lib: the location of system librarys like libc and libm. In order to enable this, I have been fixing bugs in lots of pl...

Recommended mailing list manager for CentOS 5.6
Does CentOS 5.6 have a mailing list manager like ecartis or majordomo? I want to set up mailing lists for my server in the cloud for three domains that I own. What mailing list managers do yourecommend, and where can they be found? I don't ming compiling source code. Thanks, -- John J.

Intersection for two curves

Re: [PATCH v5 0/8] Configurable policy for handling deprecated interfaces
...gs for QMP and CLI. Naming them just deprecated-{input,output} leads to a single set of settings common to all externeal interfaces, or to sugar for setting all the deprecated-*-{input,output} we may have. I don't think getting it wrong now would be a big deal. No excuse for getting it wrong unthinkingly :) > Also, it seems a bit repetitive to say 'deprecated' here all > the time -- do you have a future use of -compat in mind which > would be to adjust something that is *not* deprecated ?
