ustack() issues && correlating SIGSEGV activity?
Howdy, I was playing around with the malloc/free D script provided by Philip Beevers: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=4224&tstart=15 And decided to change the free:entry probe from: pid24169::free:entry / sz[arg0] / { printf("Freeing %p (size %d)\n", arg0, sz[arg0]); sz[arg0] = 0; } to: pid24169::free:entry / ! sz[arg0] / { printf("[ *

ssh-keygen listing fingerprints little unclear
Since ssh-keygen is not listing the _types_ of keys I have in my file, wouldn't it be a good idea to make the -t switch filtering out the selected type of key when doing a listing with -l? i.e. in this case I see both rsa1, rsa, and dss keys: $ ssh-keygen -l -f ~/.ssh/known_hosts 1024 a9:4f:0b:b6:33:d7:d0:ad:6a:11:b4:57:25:7e:1e:f8 fluff.x42.com 1024

An "R is slow"-article
Hi all, Reading the wikipedia page on R, I stumbled across the following: http://fluff.info/blog/arch/00000172.htm It does seem interesting that the C execution is that much slower from R than from a native C program. Could any of the more technically knowledgeable people explain why this is so? The author also have some thought-provoking opinions on R being no-good and that you should write

Newbie question: How to represent parent-child denormalization
I am building a relatively trivial application to try to learn my way around Rails. I am having difficulty understanding how to navigate a heavily denormalized hierarchy. Could someone direct me to a bare-bones explanation of using rails to navigate database hierarchies? I am an experienced developer. Most of my work has been desktop client server, high performance, or server to server

Wine license
Please be patient and read this... Can AJ please change the license of the wine-launcher (like mono does)? You can still keep the libraries under LGPL. Please note proprietary is not bad and no oss w/o proprietary... You can make WINE a standard of binaries because of competition of Linux/BSD/Solaris binaries. It would be good for OS developers if you Change the license of the WINE launcher.

Install wine, dependency problem, newbie woes
Downloaded wine from codeweavers and tried to install with Kpackage. "Needs libXv.so.1" Tried locating lib* with Google, but Google comes up with packages with different names. Maybe the lib I need is part of a larger library. So, where to find what I need, and then what to do with it (eg. just copy to /lib)?? Thanks in advance for clues, dave

"A critique of R and S-PLUS"
Dear all, The other day I stumbled on this article, "A critique of R and S-PLUS" [1], and got curious on whether the points outlined are (still) valid. The article is quite old, dating 2004, but was updated several times.

Official GUI Speex player
One thing that is keeping Speex from being adopted is a lack of GUI players. I think that Speex could benefit from an offial cross-platform GUI player. The goal of the player should be to be stable, to the point(no fluff like visualisations, playlists, an equaliser, etc.), self contained(no external .DLLs, etc), and to be small(500k or less) so that people with modems don't have to wait

R crashing inconsistently within for loops
Hello, This one has been bugging me for a long time and I have never found a solution. I am using R version 2.15.1 but it has come up in older versions of R I have used over the past 2-3 years. Q: Am I wrong to expect that R should handle hundreds of iterations of the base model or statistical functions, embedded within for loops, in one script run? I have found that when I write scripts that do

oVirtBIOS : Virtualization Firmware
Misters, Let me introduce myself : Guillaume FORTAINE, Engineer in Computer Science. Me and my partners are currently working on a Virtualization Firmware. After an analysis of the various solutions (Citrix, VMware and Microsoft), it seemed natural to our eyes, to enable a true bare-metal hypervisor, to go as close as possible to the hardware, hence the BIOS. That's why we are currently

sip.conf help, inbound calls fall to last specified context
First of all, if Asterisk is the client and it must register to the other side, does the peer\user entry have to be in sip.conf, or can it be in ARA? Second, why do all calls fall through to the last context specified, whether in that peer\user definition or not? I'm assuming it's a typo somewhere, but I can't find it. I had a full sip.conf, but axed a lot of the fluff trying to

Cleaning Up My Process Table
I'm upgrading my primary server from RH 7.2 to CentOS-4.3.ServerCD. I REALLY like the ServerCD. Who needs all the fluff that comes with a standard distro? If I want a system-config-gooey I can run Xnest [1] and ssh -X from my laptop. Anyway I have two questions: 1) How can I collectively stop all the NFS, portmap, whatever? I'm hoping it can be manipulated as a group because occationally
