Hi, I need to debug some complex Javascript that leaks in MSIE (no leaks in Firefox though). For this purpose, I am trying to utilize programs like Drip and sIEve. Both programs fail under Wine, and my guess is, they try to use Gecko as the rendering engine (and this is not what's desired: Gecko works fine with my stuff). Now, provided that MSIE can be installed under Wine, and works, can

Hi, Which of the Mercurial repos contains Linux kernel sources that were used to build the Xen 3.1 binary distribution? I have this question because I am suspecting that the sata_via driver included in the distribution is not supporting my SATA controller VIA8237x (I get error messages when modprobe''ing it from an init ramdisk). This repo (http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6-xen.hg)

Hello all, Sorry for the OT thing. I'm helping a friend setting up a new box. It's a Pentium 4 with 430Watt power supply. He wants to plugin his old harddrives and DVD into the new box. The total will be: 3 harddrives, 1 DVD drive, 1 CDRW drive. In the box there are also 2 big fans. Is 430Watt enough? Thank you for your sharing. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 |

I'm running Wine release 20011004 and have created the floppy and CDs drives for my floppy, CD and CDRW. I am automounting the devices. 1. I've noticed that if I don't have a floppy or CD in the drive wine ignores it and even if I insert a disk later the app (notepad) never sees it. 2. I have two CDs, one a Creative DVD and the other a Plextor CDRW, and I've created the

Hi, I am having trouble using my dvd drive in KDE, as it wont mount, using dvd, cd, cdrw. all I get is the error message saying: Could not mount device. The reported error was: cd9660: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument Has anyone got a solution for this? Thanks, Brian

Hi, I have just installed 4.1 on a new Dell Latitude d610. It does not automount the CDs. When I mount the CD manually I get: $mount /media/cdrecorder mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only The CD writer is an Philips IDE: CDRW/DVD-ROM CDD5263 Here is my mtab: $ cat /etc/mtab /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 / ext3 rw 0 0 none /proc proc rw 0 0 none /sys sysfs rw

First the Storix drive works just fine under DSL 4.2.1 on my Libretto. So the drive is fine, the media is fine. And cdrecord on DSL reports the media to be Manuf. index: 27 Manufacturee: Prodisc Technology Inc. I have all of ONE system with Centos 4 on it. A Trixbox 2.2; I added cdrecord and found that I could burn the iso image ONLY by including the -force option to get around the

First off, there is no access into the bios on this unit It will boot from the hard drive or a USB CD. I have a USB DVD/CDRW. The system will boot from it. But if I just press enter to install off the CD, I end up at the askmethod menu. I press the local CD option and am told, no CD. Help?

So right now I have installed k3b on this notebook. I am using my Storix DVD/CDRW usb drive. I can read cds with it. Cannot burn CDs. First k3b suggests slowing down (from 8x to 4x). Then use TAO. Then it gave up. So I try cdrecord directly. -checkdrive finds some interesting things. Got to close the drive manually; cdrecord says it can't. then try a cdrecord -v dev=dev/scd0 sample.iso

I'm just wondering if someone wrote a perl script to convert a directory with flac files into mp3 and preserving the id3 tag from flac to mp3? I have two harddrives where I keep my favorite CDs in flac and others in mp3 but when I get tired of them, I move them into mp3 and rather than popping the original CD in, it might be easier to just convert from flac to mp3 directly. Please cc me on

Christian, Sorry I don't think I was so clear with my explaination of what I am doing. Your requirement flac -> mp3 is really a special case of ripping, if you think of the entire chain.... normal ripping: CD -> wav -> mp3 Your case is [CD -> wav ->] flac -> wav -> mp3 Which is equivalent to: flac -> wav -> mp3 I need this too and am proposing to use a ripping

Hi, I'm a newbie at samba (I just configured the samba server on my Linux box). I was wondering if, along with the printer and disk space, I could even share the CD Writer on the linux box as a device which my "windows" friends could map and burn CDs on. any comments would be of great help thanks deepak. -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Hi Christian, There is a perl script called rip (rip.sourceforge.net) that I was looking to alter for a similar requirment (flacs at home -> mp3s on laptop). I patched flac support into it for the encoder a couple of months ago. At the moment it uses cdparanoia to rip from CD but should not be hard to add flac as an alternative 'ripper' to make wavs and then you can use the encoder

Hi! I'' ve a xen virtual machine, and i'' d like to assign cdrw device to it.

Hi all, Sorry for the offtopic question. I hope though that others on this list or reading the archive find the answers useful too. It seems the Adaptec 1405 4port SAS HBA I bought only works with RHEL and SuSE through a closed source driver, and thus is quite useless :-( I was stupid enought to think "Works with RHEL and SuSE" meant "Certified for RHEL and SuSE, but driver in

I like how some cds, such as the windows installer discs will skip booting from the disc if you accidentally left the drive because they require you to hit a key to make them actually boot from the disc. I've kind of tried to emulate this behavior using chain.c32, but, it requires me to specify which harddrive, and I'd rather see an independant setup. I've tried localboot -1, but, it

Our new lab has HP Intel Core 2 Quad systems with DVD/CDRW and SATA. I can provide the model number if needed. They stop on kernel startup when trying to boot the CentOS 5.2 boot CD. It is during ACPI. I have tried linux noprobe and linux pci=noacpi and linux noprobe pci=noacpi. I still cannot get to the first install screen. Fedora 10 Live will not but up either. I am using Fedora 9 from

Hello CentOS, Does anyone know if there's a driver out there that'll enable CentOS 4.x to use the Intel Matrix SATA RAID settings on the 915 chipsets? -- Best regards, Mickael mailto:mike at kamloopsbc.com www.MickaelMaddison.com
