OT: Power Supplies
by RoboticGolem 29 Jun '06

29 Jun '06

Does everyone here agree that a 500watt power supply is sufficient enough for a dual MP 1800 board with 4 hard disks, DVDrom, cdrw, dvdrw, and plenty of self powered usb hubs? I'm trying to figure out whats up with my computer and my next stop is to call an electrician. -Matt

Where does firefox keep its bookmarks? And is it possible to copy them from my linux box to my windows box and have firefox on win2k use the new bookmarks? I am being forced to use win2k at the office for a project but need some of my bookmarks moved over. Thanks!

DVD burning - mkisofs max size allowed
by A. Lanza 14 Dec '05

14 Dec '05

Hi list, i'm trying to burn a DVD using k3b, as i usually do for CD burning. I'm using 4,7GB size DVD-R. The problem is that i cannot burn a 4,4GB. file. The file is exactly 4,613,704,668 bytes long. The message i get from k3b is the following: /usr/bin/mkisofs: Value too large for defined data type and then File <file> is too large - ignoring It seems like the problem is the file size, but that file should fit in a DVD, shouldn't it? Is there any limit in the size of files written to DVD? Thanks, Alf

Re: ssh & port 22 problem

> When I try to connect from a remote machine to my one at home > using ssh I get the error message "ssh: connect to host 64.146.133.1 port > 22: Connection refused" -- but using ssh in the outgoing direction (i.e. > from home to the remote location) works fine. Any suggestions as to how > to troubleshoot this? Hi Jerry, I looked at your IP to see what kind of router you had. It appears to be supplied by your ISP, because telnet showed: Sawtooth Technologies, LLC Stevenson, WA Unauthorized Access is Prohibited gw-sawtooth.pdx.rain.net 98.10.20-0 For Service Call +1 509 427-4865 Sawtooth Technologies Ether 204.119.0.254 PL/DHGL/109201/ELG 204.119.4.30 So you may need to call them to get the password or to forward port 22 for you. --Stewart

What microsoft has to say about XP
by Dotan Cohen 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

I think that more people mould move away from WIndows if they read the notices on the microsoft website: "The simple act of visiting an Internet site can be extremely damaging to the system" from: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en… Important to note that the article quoted's purpose is to convince the user to create and use a standard account, and not the system's default Administrator account. What this means is that the system's default beaviour is to make the simple act of visiting an internet site extremely damaging to the system. Why on earth would people use such an OS?

CD Unmounting Help!!
by William_King＠Dell.com 17 Nov '05

17 Nov '05

I'm unable to unmount any cd in the last couple of days. CD's auto or manually mount with no problems. But when I try to unmount get message device is busy. I've gone through processes running in KDE SystemGuard and killed all process showing accessing /dev/hdc, even killed konquerer. I've even changed FSTAB to noauto,ro,users, but to no avail. My systems were working with no issues, 1 is a laptop that has been running fc3 for over 6 months. I'm running KDE 3.3. I don't seem to have this problem in GNOME. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
