Hardware compatibility - Dell Inspiron 6400 or thinkpad t60?
Hi,
Since a while I am curious to buy a machine with hardware virtualization
support. Finally, they start to become available here in Germany.
So, I want to get such a machine. I want to buy a dell inspiron 6400 or
an IBM thinkpad T60 which are said to have such a mobile processor with
hardware virtualization - does anybody have experiences with these?
Looking in the Hardware compatibility

Core 2 Duo
Am considering a new laptop, and I wonder if anyone here can share their
Xen experiences with the newest Core 2 Duo CPUs, ref
http://www.intel.com/products/processor/core2duo/specifications.htm
The list at http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/HVM_Compatible_Processors
doesn''t include any Core 2 Duos. Does that mean that people have had
problems, or is the wiki just not up to date?

xen test cd doesn''t boot on thinkpad t60
Hi,
This might be a bug report, but I ask here before I add a bug to bugzilla:
When trying to boot the xen test cd, to give you a report of the
functionality of my new thinkpad T60, I experience this cd doesn''t even
boot on the T60.
It stops at the grub boot saying "loading stage2", never doing anything
else anymore.
Burned the iso multiple times, it boots on other machines,

Ruby, Rails & Linux - Which distro
Did I sound like our President? :)
<spin>
I didn''t explain myself well. I am not thinking of buying the
identically equipped PC laptop either at the same price.
If I had a $2500-$3000 budget (laptop, Applecare + case etc) I might
consider the Mac, but then in the PC laptop universe there are more
options of going with the slower processors (T2300 or T2400) for about
$1,000 less

Using rsync with the iriver T60
I was about to ask how to get this to work, but I think I might have solved it
with another last look down the documentation before I clicked on the send
button.
I have an annoying little problem known as the iriver T60 audio player.
It plays Ogg files from my PC perfectly well, but only in the same order in
which it thinks they were copied onto its flash memory. It makes no attempt
to sort

Booting firmware harddisk image with memdisk fails
Hi,
I once again have a problem with memdisk failing to boot a harddisk image
to update my Thinkpad X200s firmware. I extracted the harddisk image
from the eltorito type 4 ISO using the isobar tool.
Then I added memdisk using this image as initrd to my grub, rebooted and it
boots into PC DOS and then freezes (ctrl-alt-del still works to reboot the
system).
Inside Qemu however it works fine

Best practices for the maximal length of user names
Hello,
are there any best practices for the length of user names?
I tend to limit them to 8 characters and to follow the pattern 'first
letter of the first name'+'first 7 letters of the last name' (e.g.
mbaudier).
But people are sometimes frustrated with having their last name
truncated and I wonder if limiting the user name to 8 characters is
not a kind of superstition coming

snow::makeCluster on Windows hangs

I'm hoping there is a simple explanation, but I searched on-line and

Eclipse Helios on CentOS 5.5 (was Websites Up!)
> Then I hope to finish my tutorial on installing Eclipse
> Helios for Centos 5.5
Is there anything special to be done?
I just unzipped the SR1 distribution for RCP/RAP developers
linux-gtk-x86_64 and it works without problem on an up to date CentOS
5.5 x86_64.
(to be more precise: I install it as root under /opt, install some
plugins like subclipse and regular users start it from there)

Firefox slower on GMail since update to CentOS 5.5
Hello,
since I upgraded from CentOS x86_64 5.4 to 5.5, I noticed that Firefox
has become significantly slower on GMail (or Google Apps Mail).
The page becomes slow to scroll as soon as there are more than a few
mails in a conversation (like in a typical CentOS mailing list
thread).
Did anyone else notice that as well?
(I guess that I'm not the only GMail user around)

I'm currently travelling (in south-eastern Europe) with a netbook
(Samsung NC 10) running CentOS 5.4 i386.
I frequently try to access internet from bars or hotels (mostly via wireless).
Although it works pretty often, it happens quite regularly that in
some hotels I cannot access internet from CentOS while it is possible
from Windows.
This is the case in the hotel where I am currently

Best practices for LVM and virtualization
Hello,
I'm currently setting up a virtualization infrastructure based on
CentOS 5.4 x86_64 and KVM.
I want to use LVM because of its flexibility, especially the ability
to add more disk space to a guest if needed.
We are considering using an hardware RAID1 with BBU as the lowest layer.
My question is: where is it recommended to put the LVM?
1. On the host only
In that case, the guests

Supsend/hibernate on Samsung NC10
Hi,
I cannot have suspend and hibernate working on a Samsung NC10
(netbook) running CentOS 5.4 i386.
When I try suspending/hibernating the screen becomes black (with a few
logs, like "shrinking memory" for hibernate) and then the computer
hangs and I have to force a shutdown with the power button.
This wiki page seems to say that it should work out of the box:
