I just told it to look at the disk first. Easy from there.

roll back of rhel server
Published (2009-11-06 10:38:00)
Yummex is just a gui frontend for yum, so I am 100% sure that it will work. One does find a lot of posts around the net of people using smartpm on RHEL and as there are not any posts with problems setting it up(that I could find), I assume it is pretty much just handled(much the same as yum just handles it).

Routing MIC input to SPEAKERS
Published (2009-11-06 15:45:00)
On my delta 44, in alsamixer I have channels H/W + H/W 1 + H/W 2 + H/W 3 than are set to PCM Out by default. But I can change them to H/W In + H/W In 1 + H/W In 2 + H/W In 3, which pipes the INPUTs 1+2+3+4 to the OUTPUTs 1+2+3+4. But it's not your typical soundcard. You're probably stuck with a jackd or similar method. The was some trick to use sox to pipe input to output. But that was a while ago, and mainly meant as a cheat to...

Published (2009-11-08 22:45:00)
It is desktop specific and is not configured using .desktop, but rather windows manager configuration. Many WM, like Kwin (KDE), Fluxbox and AwesomeWM offer way to configure this. Other probably do too, but I never looked. I suggest taking a look at AwesomeWM+shifty if you want real control over virtual desktop, it is the one with the most advanced configuration options.

This is clearly a subjective question and there is no "best" option as it depends on your requirements and choice/freedom etc.
I might like Ubuntu and would prefer to use it instead of Fedora as Ubuntu according to what I have seen detects hardware much better than Fedora, but hey that's just me.
If you're starting out with Linux, check Fedora 11 or Ubuntu 9.10. After using it practically ...

There are two types of initrd files. One type is a compressed ext2 filesystem. The other is a compressed cpio archive. The latter seems to be what I've seen lately.
Copy your initrd file to your home directory. The use the file commandto examine it.
example:
Code:
> cp /boot/initrd-2.6.27.37-0.1-default ~
> mv ...

I can tell you exactly what has the right stuff....wait for it....."Dolphin"!
You can run KDE apps in Gnome, now. Case in point, I am lost without "k3b" and I mostly always have Gnome as my desktop.
Just do...
Code:
apt-get install dolphin
This will install kde-common, et al, but you are still launching a Gnome desktop rather than KDE.

If you want the fstab entry to control mount/umount, you need to make the device name persistent. Here is an article that should help you accomplish that.

It doesn't really matter that much as long as you use a current distro.. in regards to locking down the desktop you could go with KDE in kiosk mode, there's an admin gui available here as well:

I haven't encountered this problem but I've only been using gramps for a couple of years.
The gramps wiki suggests that the error you are seeing is caused by missing database environment files (ie, you need to backup more than just the grdb file).
If you think it is really just a version issue rather than missing environment, you can get older versions of gramps from the ...

Well there are tons of things that can cause problems.
1. Do you have a router (more than 1 computer connected)?
2. What kind of downloads?
3. Do you host a server through your connection?
4. Can you monitor your traffic (in and out)?
5. Any Windows machines? Could be a virus.
Possible causes:
1. Your outgoing bandwidth is saturated (Your sending more data than your ISP ...

Are you using a kernel compiled by yourself? You should have "tickless system" enabled for power efficiency, maybe that's the point. The flag is called "TICK_ONESHOT", look for it in /proc/config.gz (e.g. run "zgrep TICK_ONESHOT /proc/config.gz")

you need to decrease the bitrate in order to get smaller files. You can use a bitrate calculator to find out about the right bitrate. It's also a good idea to decrease the resolution with lower bitrates in order to keep the quality as good as possible.
