I am trying to run "Sony Vegas Movie Studio 8.0" on Ubuntu 7.04 in wine-0.9.41 but I get this error: "This application is not supported in Windows 2000". How can I make wine emulate Windows XP?

I just got off a Windows 7 terminal which has rotating tab completion, this means that in the case of completion ambiguity the shell completes one of the possibilities, and subsequent tabs complete to different possibilities. This in contrast to bash's behaviour of simply printing a list of possibilities. Googling I have found that bash can in fact have rotating completion by setting

Can grep show the matching lines and the next N lines after a match? For instance, I have a config file wit hthe following text: [Tag h1] foreground=#2e5a03 underline=double indent=0 weight=PANGO_WEIGHT_BOLD scale=2.25 I would ideally grep on "[Tag h1]" and have grep display the match and the next 5 lines so that I see all the content of the h1 section. Can this be done? Thanks! --

AMD is dropping support for the R300-R500 cards in their official drivers: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amd_r500_legacy&num=1 As the current open source drivers do not support 3D, I'd like to know which Compiz effects use 3D and which use 2D.

Hi David, I have a copy of Windows that I bought a year or two ago, but never really used it, as I preferred to use Linux. Got it just in case I needed the license, I guess now I can put it to use. Me paying for the Windows copy should include the fonts, right? It's working now, and showing the fonts. Thanks a lot :-D Now all that I have left is to get the characters to attach, and I

All commands return a value, usually 0 if run properly. For instance, try: $ ls && echo "done" $ lsd && echo "done" The echo command is only executed if the ls command exited successfully. If one did not add the echo command with the && after a command, how can he determine if the command exited successfully? I have a particularly troubling script that

I need to open a Nautilus window on a headless server, but no matter what I try it complains about the display: ?dcl:~$ xhost + localhost localhost being added to access control list ?dcl:~$ ssh -X user at ip.address [user at CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]$ export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 [user at CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]$ nautilus --display=0:0 cannot open display: 0:0 Run 'nautilus --help' to see

I have installed Postfix, Dovecot, and Squirrelmail on a CentOS 5.5 machine. In Squirrelmail a user can send mail, but he is not receiving replies. There is nothing relevant in the maillog other than the user's (successful) login attempts. I am at loss, I have been following tutorials such as the Perfect Server [1] series and other Google results, but I cannot get this thing to receive mail.

I have installed Compiz-Fusion on several Ubuntu machines, all different hardware, with KDE. In all of them, the option to shutdown or reset the computer is absent from the KDE logout buttons when running Compiz-Fusion. I have searched google and see that others have this problem, but I do not see a solution. Is there a known solution to this condition? Thanks in advance. Dotan Cohen

There is a CentOS 5.2 machine that is sometimes found to be offline. It runs a few websites but nothing very high traffic. I happened to notice a few days ago that before it went down, one of the sites written in PHP was throwing errors that it could not connect to the MySQL backend. Two hours later, the whole server was down and wasn't even responding to SSH. It's not my box, but I may

I have a Debian machine with four users that I plan on migrating to CentOS. As per Debian habits the UIDs start with 1000. Is it enough to reuse the Debian /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd files over? Or will I need to configure some other things? I had considered just creating four new users starting from UID 500 then chown -R -ing the user's home directories, but I find that invasive and

In a wine bug report I have been asked to attach a compressed +tid,+seh,+relay,+msi log. I have been googling for over two hours trying to find out just how to do that. Can someone please RTFM me with a link to information that explains how to do that? If you find it via google, I would like to know what keywords you used. Thanks in advance.

Although I made sure that vim-enhanced.i386 is installed, pressing : then upArrow does not show me the last command that I've typed. Might I still be using vim-minimal erroneously? How to fix that? I don't see any mention of this in google or the past few months of fine archives. Thanks. [gadi at mercury ~]$ uname -a Linux mercury 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5PAE #1 SMP Thu May 13 13:48:44 EDT 2010

I have a Dell Inspiron with the ATI x1400 video card. In Ubuntu 7.04 I ran Compiz-Fusion in XGL with the fglrx drivers and the system was very responsive. I noticed no performance penalties at all. In Ubuntu 8.04 I am running Compiz natively with the current fglrx drivers, and the system is sluggish. Disabling Compiz makes the system very responsive. So I am interested in running Compiz in XGL

On a particular CentOS 6 install, I must start SSH manually: # /etc/init.d/sshd start I have tried to configure it to start automatically: # chkconfig --level 3 sshd on However, it still must be manually started.

On a CentOS 5 server, I am having a hard time configuring BIND to answer to 4 IP addresses for 2 domain names. Currently, I have four IP addresses, for sake of discussion they are: 1.1.1.1 1.1.1.2 1.1.1.3 1.1.1.4 Additionally, I have two domain names. For sake of discussion: exampleA.com exampleB.com My goal is to have 1.1.1.1 & 1.1.1.2 as the nameservers for exampleA.com, and 1.1.1.3 &

I a rather dependent upon the Enhanched Zoom Desktop tool. It allows me to zoom into a part of the screen and see it clearly, with the zoomed part of the screen following the mouse. However, there are times when I need the screen to remain where it is (not to pan with the mouse), and the only way that I've found to do that is with the "Toggle zoom area lock" option. When this option

Hi all. I need to run X on a headless server, and I am having a hard time configuring null devices in xorg.conf.

One can log into a remote shell via SSH, and one can use an FTP application to log in via SFTP using the same credentials over SSH. Why then, can one not initiate a file transfer from the remote host to the local host when logged into a shell via SSH? I know that I could use scp or rsync to move the files, but the requires authenticating which is not something that I can always do from the host.
