Hi A quicky - has anyone had success with an X100P in the UK ? I'm seeing some oddness - when I plug the wall socket into the card, I lose dialtone. If I unplug it, it comes back. Does this sound familiar to anyone ? Cheers Nigel Nigel Taylor Technology Director ITAzure Limited Dunn House Warren Park Way Enderby Leicestershire LE19 4SA 0116 286 3016

Hi everybody I'm having some unexpected errors from the 'by' function when using it to apply the mean function (by a factor) to a dataframe of numerical variables. The following piece of toy code demonstrates: myDataF<-warpbreaks myDataF$X<-runif(54) # creating an additional numerical variable in warpbreaks for purposes of this demo

Hi, I want to do a chi square test and I have two tab delimited text files with Expected and Observed values to compare. Each file contains only the values and are 48 rows by 116 columns. I have managed to do something with them, but I don't think it is right as I got a p value of 1. In this case I used the read.table() function to read the values from the files. But I don't know if

Hi, I'm implementing a Samba service on Solaris (the native CIFS service being unreliable in our environment); all is working well but I have a couple of questions regarding winbind which I can't find answers to in the documentation. I'm using 3.0.37 at the moment, but it wouldn't be a big deal to use a more recent version if necessary. The system will join an existing

Hi everybody. I'm trying to fit a weibull survival model with a spline basis for the predictor, using the survival library. I've noticed that it doesn't seem to be possible to use the aic method to choose the degrees of freedom for the spline basis in a parametric regression (although it's fine with the cox model, or if the degrees of freedom are specified directly by the user),

Hello, We are reading a lot in the press about which is better, NT or Linux, and I am not going to start a thread about that! However, one of the issues that does seem to be repeated, is that both operating systems and software need to be 'tuned' to get the best possible results. Furthermore, you need to be an expert, with considerable experience to know what to do. I am running a Linux

A few months ago, I tried to get Datakam Player (Registrator Viewer) to work on my Linux system using wine, without success. I have since installed a newer wine, and it now starts and can open the files created by my dashcam, but it does not play them - the video area remains black, there is no sound and the speed and location displays do not change. Short of trying an even newer wine, which

Is there an easy way to control smoothness of the contour lines? In the plot I am working on due to the undersampling the contour lines I am getting are jugged, but it is clear "by eye" these should be basically straight lines. In maps package I found smooth.map function, but maybe there is a more generic way of accomplishing the same thing. Ideally there would be an option to control

Using Samba 2.0.6 Hi All, I have this working fine for Windows 95. I can double click on a printer share and when prompted install the printer driver from the hidden share \\%h\printer$.

However looking in the archives of this group, I can see that some people report Windows NT working if they

I am now at the point where I have one more thing to install before I can scrap my Windows box - and it's Leisure Suit Larry's Greatest Hits and Misses. I have installed the DOS-based parts of it in dosbox, and also used sarien and freesci to handle some of it, but there is a significant part of this collection that needs Windows.
