If you want to be able to just click on things to install them, check out 0install. Unfortunately, not much is packaged for it.

Actually I think it looks pretty nice. It's less well-documented, so if you find out you install it and your volume button or power management or something don't work, it's harder to find help. You don't get Nautilus (you can still run it, but it automatically starts big chunks of Gnome along with it which defeats the purpose of a lightweight desktop). The Xfce file manager, Thunar, doesn't have as many features - I don't know the details, but I'd guess it's harder to browse Windows network shares and things like that. I actually think Xfce looks really nice, and I like the fact there's not as much crap I'll never used stuffed into it.

A 1 Ghz Celeron should be plenty fast for normal browsing and things. Something's wrong with your setup if it runs that slow. Why not just take the sound card out of the Celeron and put it in the new computer? To answer your actual question, though, you want to run a PulseAudio server on the machine with the soundcard, and have all the audio clients on the newer machine use either PulseAudio or eSound output (PulseAudio has a backwards-compatibility mode for eSound).

How do I do that in Debian? /etc/init.d/sshd restart If lots of people have logins on this box, you might want to disallow all of them except you unless you can audit all the passwords to be sure they're strong enough.

rugbert posted:bah, anytime theres a kernel update I lose my wireless (ndiswrapper) and resolution (nvidia). is there an easy way to roll back so I can reinstall my graphics and wireless capabilities? Depends on what system are you using. Debian/Ubuntu? Red Hat/SuSE? You should be able to just uninstall the new kernal package and reinstall the old one. If you built it yourself, use the same procedure you used to install it to build and install an older version. Why don't you just recompile ndiswrapper and nvidia though?

Twlight posted:These systems are not well maintained, cleanup isn't running so last worked out perfectly. To script this up, I'm assuming i would use awk to grab dates that i would like? Depending on cleanup not running seems like a bad thing - if someone took over and started maintaining the system better, things would start breaking. EDIT: do you have an easy way to get a list of each employee's manager? (I assume they have one.) I'd have it email their manager when their account is about to be deleted, so that a human gets a chance to intervene. ("If this employee is still with the company and is just on extended leave, please contact IT immediately.")

Zom Aur posted:We tried, didn't work. We later tried with ISO-8859-1 (Which is the ISO code for swedish characters) but it didn't work neither. It's probably formatted to use a windows-specific code page (which is a stupid thing to do in this day and age). You should be able to figure out the code page in Windows somewhere (drive properties? I dunno) and then Google should be able to tell you the equivalent Linux name of that page.

The Remote Viewer posted:Wasn't Ibex supposed to be pretty or something? Apparently the Ubuntu team has a drag queen's eye for beauty and subtlety because yet again they passed over several great mockups and even a working theme for something that looks like dogshit yet again. This is the second time I've seen someone link to that theme and say it looks great. WTF? That's butt-ugly.

The Remote Viewer posted:Why does my system usability tank every time I do a file operation involving large files (>20GB)? Firefox starts becoming unresponsive, programs take 5x longer to install, etc. You can use ionice to turn down the priority on those large operations. They'll take longer to finish but anything else that needs the hard drive will be able to interrupt them so they'll run better.

thesuever posted:So, I define the variable: Configure scripts usually look for the development headers, not the link library. To install it through the package manager, make sure you install both libmpcdec and libmpcdec-devel. (The exact names will vary by distribution.) When you installed it yourself, did you set the whole prefix to /usr/local/lib/libmpcdec? (That would mean the .so is in /usr/local/lib/libmpcdec/lib and the headers are in/usr/local/lib/libmpcdec/include) Then you want LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib/libmpcdec/lib and INCLUDES=-I/usr/local/lib/libmpcdec/include.

Google's not helping me on this because I don't know what to search for. I've got an SD card that's not being detected. Other SD cards work fine, and this card works fine in other computers. syslog says that it's getting detected by hal, but it never shows up as /dev/sdb (which is where other SD cards show up): Nov 1 00:24:13 seppo kernel: [ 5231.392560] mmc0: new SD card at address b368 Nov 1 00:24:13 seppo kernel: [ 5231.393339] mmcblk0: mmc0:b368 SD064 61312KiB Nov 1 00:24:13 seppo kernel: [ 5231.393398] mmcblk0: p1 Nov 1 00:24:13 seppo NetworkManager: <debug> [1225513453.435204] nm_hal_device_added(): New device added (hal udi is '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_1180_822_mmc_host_mmc_card_rca45928'). And that's the last thing I get. All the tools I know about (mount, fdisk, whatever) take paths in /dev - there's gotta be something to tell it to map this hal id to that device, but what? EDIT: after flailing around for half an hour, as soon as I posted I zeroed in right on the thing to do. That's always the way. First off I restarted hald, and now when I put the card in I see more hal id's for the actual filesystems on it: Nov 1 01:07:16 seppo NetworkManager: <debug> [1225516036.631445] nm_hal_device_added(): New device added (hal udi is '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_1180_822_mmc_host_mmc_card_rca45928'). Nov 1 01:07:16 seppo NetworkManager: <debug> [1225516036.705132] nm_hal_device_added(): New device added (hal udi is '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_0x40407873'). Nov 1 01:07:16 seppo NetworkManager: <debug> [1225516036.768998] nm_hal_device_added(): New device added (hal udi is '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_FC30_3DA9'). Then I looked at each of them with lshal -u /org/freedesktop/... pci_1180_etc didn't give me anything useful, but storage_serial_etc included the entry "block.device = '/dev/mmcblk0'" and volume_uuid_etc included "block.device = '/dev/mmcblk0p1'" which are analogous to /dev/sda and /dev/sda1. Not sure why this card's showing up on a different device from others, but at least I can use it now. JoeNotCharles fucked around with this message at 06:15 on Nov 1, 2008 |
