Off-Topic: Crime Statistics Don't Pay
WARNING: COMPLETELY OFF TOPIC -- Nothing to do with R.
I thought readers of this list might enjoy the following. The link to
the full article is at the bottom. I hope this is not "too"
inappropriate.

Overconfidence in crime statistics doesn?t pay. In a new study, a team
of criminologists makes the case that reported crime rates should
acknowledge uncertainty in the data. The

WAAAYYY OFF TOPIC -- For Statistics Buffs only
A really nice example of an instance where an "outlier" was the whole story
scientifically and hiding it with statistical summaries, here an "average"
of some sort, lost the science. Moral: "Look at your data and think."

etherboot 5.3.14 and pxelinux keyboard problem
Hello PXE folk,
I mentioned in another thread that I had problems finding an etherboot
that actually works with a 486 and Realtek 8019/NE2000 card. Etherboot
worked up until v 5.3.5-mc1 with the ne driver but then stopped working
between 5.3.7 to 5.3.13 (anoying since 5.3.7 started supporting
PXELINUX. But then I downloaded 5.3.14 and it seems to work again with
the ne driver (finally

OT Sorta: Strouhal Numbers, Unladen Swallows and Monthy Python....
Greetings all,
Every now and then, as we engage in serious discourse, it seems
appropriate to throw something into the mix that might digress and
brighten the day.
So, what is a Strouhal Number?
"For an animal or insect in flight, the Strouhal number is determined by
the frequency (f) of wing strokes, multiplied by the amplitude (A) of
the wing, divided by the animal?s forward speed (U)

Samba 1.9.18 on Unixware 2.1.2, Makefile problem (& solution, sorta)
Hello Samba gurus: I apologize if I'm not following some established
protocol, I'm pretty new to samba and to this list. I just tried
compiling samba 1.9.18 on UnixWare 2.1.2 and ran into a problem with
UnixWare's /usr/ccs/bin/cc: it doesn't deal with the "-o" option in
combination with the "-c" option well at all. It either ignores the
"-o" or

my needed.

sorta OT: Bounty for Click to Call plugin for IE
I'm in process of transitioning a number of offices to a hosted virtual
pbx from Junction Networks. It's a combination of OpenSER and Asterisk.
They have a nice click-to-call extension for Firefox, but I need the
equivalent for IE so that it can work with our CRM system. Junction
told me that they have a bounty on offer for this if someone's
interested in doing the work.

I have samba (server-only) running on a server with a stock RedHat 7.2 'server' install and am trying to upgrade Samba to 2.2.6-1.i386. I get the following dependency failures when trying to "rpm -ivh samba-2.2.6-1.i386.rpm":

Semi-OT: LSI raid card sorta....
I've got a box running C7, just updated (yesterday). It had an onboard
RAID controller, and an HBA. I just installed a new, additional RAID card,
all LSI.
MegaCli64 only sees one controller. I can't seem to find the magic to see
the others. I *know* the new card is a MegaRAID - the box it came in says
so. The system sees it

[Sorta OT] Eicon DIVA with asterisk@home
Hi;
I've got an AAH installation where a customer wants to install an active
Eicon DIVA BRI card. AAH is built on Centos 3.5 which is currently at
kernel 2.4.21.37. Support for Eicon active cards is built-in.
I've debugged and run the A@H install-Eicondiva script but when I try to
run divactrl load -c 1 -f ETSI -Debug I get a response :

[sorta offtopic] Removing bad bytes from filenames
I'm moving my Ogg Vorbis collection off of my Linux server and onto my
laptop. I plan on using iTunes to play my collection, but, that's a
whole 'nother can of worms.
I'm having trouble moving my complete collection over because dbPowerAmp
(an application I used to love) made some dumb decisions about naming my
files. For example, in track/album/artist names that contained a

ultra-cheap asterisk box -> sorta OT, more a bout Dell
FWIW:
I order a lot of Dells. My boss is cheap. That being said, I *like* Dell,
it's a very well designed box. It's been said many times that Dell does not
innovate, instead they copy and improve and I firmly agree with the
"improve" part - they are a dream to work on.
Some things to watch out for with Dell:
1. They typically tack on a shipping charge of $139 Cdn (yes they

I made other tests. It's not a matter of Win98 versus WinXP, things
change passing from tftpd32 v310beta to v3.33. This version seems to
work fine, but the logs show problems. Here is the complete log with
