I've got a Dell Optiplex GX240 I am running CentOS 5.4 (kernel 2.6.18-164.9.1.el5.centos.plus)... When I had Fedora 11 and 12 on it, I could issue a poweroff command and the machine would power itself off. However, under CentOS it doesn't turn the machine off whatsoever. When it completes, the machine is still running with a message of "system halted." Then I have to

Dear all, Is there a quick and easy way of converting utf characters to the \uxxxx form (necessary e.g. for packages)? I mean something working like this: > utf2uxxxx("õäöü") [1] "\u00f5\u00e4\u00f6\u00fc" It is easy to program but perhaps someone already has implemented this. (I couldn't find anything useful from searches incl RSiteSearch). Thanks in advance, Kenn

Dear all, I've used RODBC a lot to read in files created in MS excel and access but found a strange problem today: a variable in my data file contained both numbers and text; sqlFetch would set text within a row of numbers to NA; but if first 5 or 6 rows would be text then all numbers would be read in as NA. con<-odbcConnectExcel("xample.xls") #the file is attached or at

Dear all, I am working with a list of objects each of which contains two POSIXct objects (say, $Start and $End) and a number of different data in addition to that. Now an easy way to extract Start times of all object could be sapply(x, "[", "Start") but this converts them all to numeric, and so does sapply(x, "[[", "Start"). lapply preserves the class but

Hi I tried to install the * in my Radhat 7.3 machine. The "gmake" and "gmake install" went fine, but "gmake sample" gave me errors of "configs/*.adsi", "sounds/demo-*" and "sounds/*.mp3" errors. I created a dummy.adsi in the configs folder and commented out the "sounds/demo-*" and "sounds/*.mp3" in the Makefile to

I've gotten wine to run the installer for ArcView 8.2 . It installs certain required components and then says that i must reboot the computer to continue the installation. At this point i click the reboot m$ window and the installer closes. i've tried both rerunning the installer at this point and actually rebooting, but either way, i always end up back at the beginning of the

Trying to debug a database server getting cpu softlocks causing SSHD to hang and not let anybody log in. Figured that a good first step would be to get some kernel dumps when the problem occurs. According to what I read at the following web site, I can get dumps for softlock problems too. Here's the site: http://blog.kreyolys.com/2011/03/17/no-panic-its-just-a-kernel-panic/ Using a

Hello every body, I ve installed Trixbox 1.2 on "DELL OPTIPLEX GX 240", i upgreded it to the latest version. I've 2 cards installed in the same pci channel via a bridge or plug i don't know exactly what's his name( but a card (1 pci) that gives 2 pci channels) the first card is TDM400P: it's ok the second is TE110P: it's not ok . No led is on neither the red nor the

I just installed VirtualBox latest version on a new Win7 Pro x86_64 desktop, and tried to create a 64bit CentOS 4.8 install for doing some procedural testing... all install attempts hung at the samme place, shortly after grub, it hangs at... Dquot-cache hash table entries: 512 (order 0, 4096 bytes) sadly, I didn't capture the rest of the console output prior to that. 32bit 4.8 boots

Dear all, I sometimes use the following function: Curry <- function(FUN,...) { # by Byron Ellis, https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2007-November/047318.html .orig <- list(...) function(...) do.call(FUN,c(.orig,list(...))) } ... and have thought it might be convenient to have a method for [ doing this. As a simple example, > apply(M, 1, mean[trim=0.1]) # hypothetical

Ok, Thanks foe the answer, Ken: *1L, 2L etc are integers. (That is, identical to as.integer(1) , as.integer(2) etc) Using integers (instead of "numeric" type) is more efficient as here they're used as indexes and would be converted to integer anyway. Compare > is(1) ... and > is(1L) 1L:p is the sequence 1, 2, 3, ..., p (just like 1:p) Just for curiosity, what is

Hello, I am trying to set up a Xen/Remus test configuration on AMD64 hardware (HP DL380 G6) under SuSE 10.1 and am having trouble. I was able to run and configure the Xen 3 that came with SuSE fine, but as far as I can see, I have to use Xen 4 to get Remus. I managed to build Xen 4 from source and it seemed to install, but I am not sure how to get the proper kernel and/or initrd files in place

Suppose X is a long vector of integers (typically about 30000 elements). Is there an efficient way to detect whether there are at least N consecutive zeros in X, and if yes, where does this occur? for example, suppose X is: 1 2 3 4 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 4 2 0 1 2 0 0 0 2 2 2 2 2 ... and N is 10. I would like a foo(X, 10) to return something like c(6,19) (start and end positions in X

I have couple question about using Xen in the "real" world. My test box is a Dell Optiplex 745 with a Core 2 processor and 4 G of RAM. I am using 64 bit Centos 5 with Xen 3.03. Right now I have it set up so Dom0 is my working domain and I add other DomU for whatever tests i need to do. From what I''ve read here, this is not the best way to do things. So my first question is,

Hello all. Again I call upon the greats of this mailing list to help me with an issue related to MEMDISK - notably when paired with various Dell OptiPlex and Latitude systems. The issue presented itself sometime ago and I best dealt with it by remaining with version 3.83 of the SYSLINUX package. But valuing the improved changes fostered by newer versions, I would prefer to move forward with

>> Doesn't work. Apparently the Dell UEFI PXE firmware doesn't know HTTP. > > There's a lot of variation. Do you have a shell option > in your boot selections? None of Dell OptiPlex 990 (firmware A19), 9010 (firmware A22), nor 9020 (firmware A16) seem have a built-in EFI shell option, but in all three cases I had success running the external EFI shell from

Hi there, We had to setup a pxelinux on a new server (windows 2012) and used the latest release of pxelinux 6.0.2. Everything went ok on my first client test machine : dell optiplex 740. Pxe was really fast (vesamenu with large background image was appearing in less than 3 secondes) But on different client machine i got different results : On optiplex 790 (core i5 with intel 82579 nic) and

Yes on optiplex 790 i upgraded from A07 to A18 (there was a nic upgrade) but it didn't change anything.. On optiplex 380 i upgraded from bios A01 to A07(don't know if upgrade contained pxe or not)... I tried, lpxelinux.0 and it wasn't faster. Only v4.07 helped on these machines. Tomorrow, i will give a try with 6.03pre2. In wireshark, i saw no errors, the packet length was the

I've got an old Dell Optiplex (Pentium-II, 1998 Vintage) which is successfully running an X100P card. I'm hoping to upgrade to a TDM400. Has anybody tried running these cards in old Optiplex machines? I'm not particularly worried about horsepower - more about the motherboard having a PCI bus that's able to power up the card... -Ronan

Shantanu, let's continue here. You first noticed this on a Dell OptiPlex 755. I think it covers all Dell OptiPlex/Latitude/Precision models that are PCIe based with Intel LoM (LAN on motherboard) utilizing the BIOS PXE OROM, based on the similarity of these systems. The symptoms are that PXELINUX requests pxelinux.cfg/<UUID> by TFTP (but it might not strictly be a TFTP issue) when not
