Running Fedora Core 6, latest updates, Gnome desktop, a Matrox P650
card with unofficial Parhelia drivers v1.4.4.4 from Alexander Griesser
(see here if you need them:
http://www.tuxx-home.at/archives/2006/12/11/T22_52_32/).

I have managed to get the drivers installed and one of my HP L2045w
flat panels running at 1680x1050.

I can not figure out how to get dual head support working or to rotate
into portrait mode.

I am thinking maybe I could get into 1050x1680 dual head if I
hand-edited the xorg.conf file. But I do not know what I'd need to do
to make this happen.

I've tried using Gnome GUI admin forms for setting rotation and dual
head. But it does not work:

1) Gnome System | Preferences | Screen Resolution dialog box has
Rotation grayed out.

Yeah, I had that session feature turned on until one day an
application was eating 100%% cpu . 10 to 15 minutes for ctl+alt+del to
take control. Next login, KDE restored the process, same 100%% usage. :(

I no longer enable that feature. :)

On login, I have a ~/.kde/Autostart/startup which execute scripts
which jump to different desktops and start my different applications.

Example startup snippet:
kstart --desktop 3 --windowclass Kdesktop /site/bin/xusenet &

I Installed UBUNTU Linux in my system as Dual boot with Win XP. I'm
able to see GRUB OS Menu with OS options and Ubuntu boots as expected.
When I choose Windows XP to boot. It shows me a message called

installed in Logical partition (E: Drive and (hd0,5)).

Grub's command statement for XP is like this:
root (hd0,0) <-- Which sets C: as windows root I guess and thats why
it could not able to find that file.
savedefaults
makeactive
chainloader +1

if I try to change the above code (as shown below) and boot it...
root (hd0,5) <-- thougt It will set E: as windows root.
savedefaults
makeactive
chainloader +1
but "makeactive" does not work. It will work only with primary
partition. :(

Hi all, happy new year!

Given a particular web site:
http://somesite.com

how do I spider the whole site recursively only for media files, say:
*.mp3?
Can I do this with wget?

Optionally, how do I make a html page out of wget results?

In practice what I'd like to do is equivalent to google
"site:sometite.com filetype:mp3" search.

Thank you

Howdy,

I am trying to get a web hosting review site going, limited to web host
companies in Texas. If you have something good or bad to say about a
host, please drop in and start up a thread. It might help someone in
the future.

Hi,

How does tar's -W (verify) option work? Does it:

1) Restore entire archive to local temp directory and expect
original files to exist on disk to compare against?

2) Restore entire archive to local temp directory, but assume that
the read process itself would show up any errors?

3) Restore file-by-file to local storage, comparing against original
files?

4) Restore file-by-file to local storage, but with no comparison?

5) Restore block-by-block to memory only, with no need for local storage
at all?

Unfortunately both the man page and info text just say "verifies the
archive" without saying exactly what the process is. In an ideal world I'd
restore the whole lot myself to a temp directory and checksum against
original data using cksum just for peace of mind, but I don't have enough
free disk space to do that :-) With that in mind, option 5 above would be
best - providing there's no chance that reads are successful but
transparently returning garbled data (I'm not sure what, if any,
checksumming either tar or the underlying DLT media has)

can u tell the difference between the Makefile for the Freebsd and
Redhat

please ......

Bang!! Just tried it and it worked!! Wowzers.. Good call Markku Kolkka!

Instead of asking me for a driver, it went right to the media test
screen, in which I did, just to be safe.

Afterwards, I went thought the install, same as normal, choose my set up!
