I took 5 albums (Classical music) and converted them to Ogg Vorbis at "Full Bitrate" (-q10) and all 5 directories take up about 775 Megs which won't fit on a CD. So I ripped them again in WAV first (And give my friend back his CDs) but now I wanna know what quality setting should I use to fit them on 1 CD (The highest possible with total space used just under 700 Megs)

Hello There, After having googled the whole internet for days I decided to go public with this issue. The result of my google queries so far is that there are plenty of others with the very same problem I have and noone posted a reasonable answer to this: Using Samba 3 with XP gets bad performance. I tested this on Tru64 5.1b and FreeBSD 5.3 with the very same symptoms. The throughput bw XP

I had the dom0 which unfortunately didn''t have a console on it hit a race condition and saw oom errors on it also.

Everyone, I am putting together a new mail server for our firm using a SuperMicro with Centos 7.0. When performed the install of the os, I put 16 gigs of memory in the wrong slots on the mother board which caused the SuperMicro to recognize 8 gigs instead of 16 gigs. When I installed Centos 7.0, this error made the swap file 8070 megs instead of what I would have expected to be a over 16000

on a CentOS release 6.8 (Final) I was looking around and noticed the following in a directory. [jason at server /app-vol/applications/]$ls -ld temp drwxr-xr-x 4 jason users 2899968 Feb 18 06:31 temp/ [jason at server /app-vol/applications/]$ How does the directory *itself* have a size of 2.8 megs? yes the contents in that temp directory add up to 2.8 megs, but.. umm. huh? when I run a stat on

Today, I noticed that a completely clean build of wxRuby on my desktop machine is about 5.8 megs, but on my laptop is about 9.8 megs. Both computers are running Debian GNU/Linux, but my laptop is more of a mix of releases, whereas my desktop is almost entirely Sarge/Testing. Both are using gcc 3.3.3. In both cases, I did a full "get", and did a make from scratch. Any ideas about

I am trying to gain an understanding of R's capabilities in larger data set analysis. I really like R, but the datasets that I normally work with are in the 15m-50m range, sometimes much larger. The size owes to observations, not extraneous variables, so little can be done to "clean" the data of unnecessary elements. (i.e. database storage or external data manipulation doesn't

I'm trying to install centos 5 on an old machine, a Micron with a pentium III and 250 megs of ram. I'm using the DVD image. The media check said the DVD was OK. Everything starts fine (both in graphics and text modes), untl I get to the custom partition table. The new system will go on hda, with the boot and root partition reformatted (see below). I laid it out to preserve the data on

Hello all, I am using a headset and the X-lite softphone (sometimes I use IAXComm, but I'm having difficulties using OSS emulation with it) to connect via uLaw to my internal Asterisk server, which is a Pentium II 400 with 128 megs of RAM. After getting this headset, most or all of the echo people on the other line were complaining about is now gone, according to them. However, every

I start to install my program and I get an error that I have no space available.. 1 gig free on my Puppy system.. and the program only needs 75 megs... how can I change the settings in wine to show more megs. wine 0.9.22

I'm developing a minimal embedded linux system that will be running on a powerpc chip. I can get everything to work but the size is quite large. The majority of my size requirements are in libcrypto.a which is around 1.52 Megs I tried to pare it down further by removing some crypto options [ Configure linux-ppc no-asm no-cast no-des no-dh no-md2 no-mdc2 no-rc2 no-rc4 no-rc5 shared ] This

I have an hlds server on a CentOS 3.3 box with all the latest updates. it is a p-4 1.4 ghz with 384 megs of pc-800 and no less than 250 megs free at all times. Hlds has been crashing on me since the latest updates. I am thinking it is hlds acting a fool but i wanted to post here as well just to make sure. Here is the error. ./hlds_run: line 423: 5450 Segmentation fault $HL_CMD

I have an OS X 10.4 Server machine that has abysmal performance when copying files to it over smbmount from a linux machine or through Finder on OS X but performs very well when copying files through smbclient from the same Linux and OS X machines. I have already tried the commonly suggested adjustment of net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack=0 and have not noticed a significant performance improvement.

Hey everyone, I'm new to this forum and new to Linux and anything having to do with it. I'm actually trying to solve a friend's problem. My apologies if anything I'm about to say turns out to be grossly ignorant... My friend is running Kubuntu on a Aspire One that has about 500 megs of space on it, most of which is taken up by the OS I'm assuming. She seems to have less than

Hey there, Been googling but can't find. Thought to ask the wizards. The LLVM interpreter. I am creating a simple wrapper around it to run a script. The program after linking is about 25 megs stripped of debug symbols. This seems a bit large. Is it possible that this could somehow to be drastically reduced? Is it worth going and trying to rip things out? The code which instantiates

Hello, Can someone give me an idea of the memory requirements for using libFLAC? I'm trying to incorporate FLAC support into a player application for the Rio Receiver (see http://rioreceiver.comms.net for details), but I'm having trouble because FLAC__stream_decoder_new() is attempting to allocate 2099828 bytes for an instance of the FLAC__StreamDecoderPrivate struct. Is this accurate,

Greetings all. I'm new to the mailing list. Hope to get to know many of you. I'll jump right in with a recent project. I have a machine with RHEL WS 3 - Taroon; plus dual boot to Win 2000 Pro. The RAID card is Adaptec's 2400A w/128 megs cache, running RAID 10 on 4 WD's. I want to migrate to 5.2 Centos and wipe the NTFS partition. I have the 5.2 Centos DVD. Anyone see any

Hey all, I believe there is a memory leak when using Win2000 + SQL Server + Apache2 + scgi + rails 1.1. My apps so far have been pretty ''low impact'' and i did not notice it before, but the memory footprint of ruby.exe is growing larger. After 6 queries that fetch ~2,000 rows each, ruby.exe has grown to 41 megs (originally around 20). The memory leak is also present in webrick,
