I have an CV and would like to automatically update my age when opening. So, what formula should I insert in a MS Word field?
Something like { CREATEDATE \@ "01/01/1983" - CREATEDATE \@ "dd/MM/YYYY"} ?
When trying to connect to a server I get the following prompt :
By default Snow Leopard fill the Name field with Firstname Lastname found in System Pref - Account - My Account - Full Name !
I don't what to change my Full Name to the username I use to login to server !
How to you change the default Name Snow Leopard is using when connecting to server ?
I had just turned my computer on and windows was loading when the power in my neighborhood went out.
Normally, when I turn my computer on, the video card fan spins up, then slows down, POST and windows boots.
Now, after the blackout, the video card fan spins fast and wont stop. Nothing is displayed on the monitor. The monitor does not detect that the video card is sending it signals, it just stays on standby. No POST or beep codes.
This is what I have tried so far:
My motherboard has 2 PCI express slots and I tried plugging the video card into both of them but that didn't fix anything.
I have replaced the power supply, that didn't fix anything.
I cleared the CMOS, that didn't fix anything.
Does anyone have any idea of what could be wrong?
Thanks!
I'd like to be able to cite a newspaper article in LaTeX, but Bibtex seems to have no date field (it has year and month, but that doesn't seem sufficient). Is there any good way around this?
I am running MythTV on Ubuntu 9.10 and I would like to use a TV remote to control it. I know that lirc needs a configuration file for the remote, but none of my remotes is in the official database. If I point a remote at the receiver on my TV card (a Pinnacle PCTV "Solo", model 72e) and press a button, dmesg logs the code generated by the remote, so I assume I just have to make a config file with a list of commands assigned to these codes.
I've read a few how-tos but I still don't understand exactly how to create the config file. Some of the guides I've read refer to IR receivers on TV cards working at a "higher level of abstraction", which I take to mean that they decode the signal and provide a code, like the ones I can see in dmesg, rather than just giving raw data, but none of them explain where to go from there!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I have a script that programatically generates excel spreadsheets - cleaning up ugly reports that are given to us from another organisation. For interests sake; I'm using PHPExcel to generate the "clean" reports.
We get these reports every week for an event that happens every couple of months. The reports contain a list of attendees along with a group id that allows us to know that some attendees belong together.
To help the event organisers out, I've taken the event ID and generated a unqiue color code (based on the hash of the event ID - truncated to 6 characters). This unique colour code is set as the background color of a cell in each row. This helps organisers quickly visually identify group members.
Trouble is, when the organisers copy the rows from the weeks report into the master report (which contains all attendees, not just the ones that signed up this week) - all the colour-codes snap to the master template's color pallette.
Thank you very much for your time
All the best Iain
What is a reasonable rate to pay to have an office full of windows computers supported with a tech support hotline and a 1 day response for a field rep to show up and fix a computer?
Where can I get MICROSOFT WINDOWS PEER - TO - PEER NETWORKING speed characteristics?
I need to know if and what speed advantages you get with it over net.tcp and other ws-* bindings and if it is faster than flash 10.1 p2p and classic bittorrent p2p?
Is it good for live video broadcasting?
Has any one seen any reserches on this field?
We have an IBM LTO 3 tape drive that needs repaired and with the £400 price tag i'm having to shop around for quotes. My question is has anyone actually repaired one before and how was in done?
The first error LED was showing a 6, then i cleared the mangled tape only for it to start flashing alternate 'o' on the 7 segment display, simliar to a half 8, flashing top to bottom and it would just flash away like that coupled with a flashing amber light. I tried a reset holding the eject button for it to show an 'r' the go back to flashing again as before.
I checked the IBM solutions for the codes but this flashing isn't documented at all.
Would be great if anyone had any experience in this area.
Thank you,
Paul
I've got a Windows 7 PC here that was getting very frequent BSODs. The error codes were variant (IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY), and it was impossible to use the computer for longer than an hour without getting one. I backed it all up and reinstalled Windows completely, thinking that it was a corrupt driver issue. Unfortunately, I'm still getting the BSODs with the same error messages on this fresh installation.
This tells me that it must be some faulty piece of hardware, but I'm not sure what it would be. I ran Memtest+ on the machine, but did not get any errors after 2 passes. I also ran a few built-in recovery mode scans from the HP recovery partition. I need some ideas on how to test the rest of the hardware to solve this issue.
We have a locally installed copy of Sugar CRM but the search works horribly! There is an "Account" with the name: "Dr. John Smith", and if you search for "Smith" that account won't show up in the results. How can you improve or "fix" the search field of Sugar CRM?
I have a system running Windows XP Pro SP3. My wife is the primary user of this system, and the last several days in a row, when she tries to log in to the system it gives her a BSOD with the stop error code 0x000000F4. The rest of the error codes change every time she tries to log on, but that one seems to stay constant.
The error it gives me is:
A process or thread crucial to system operation has unexpectedly
exited or been terminated.
The machine will also get stuck in a boot loop, where it keeps giving me the screen saying that windows did not start successfully, and to choose how to start windows. I have tried Safe Mode, Last known Good Config, and Normally, and all have resulted in either a return to the boot loop, or BSOD.
What might this mean? How can I fix it, without doing a clean install?
openSUSE 11.2. KDE 4.3.5 Dolphin 1.3
The following works on CL
mount -v -o username=abcdefg,domain=DOM -t cifs //server.tld/share/path /mnt
Authentication fails when trying to connect to this share via Dolphin. "domain=DOM" is a required field. How do I force dolphin to connect to it?
On Dolphin, the following fails:
smb://[email protected]/server/path
Dell's OpenManager server admin tool can send email alerts, but the config for the SMNP server has no field to enter username/password.
Can it only make use of non-authenticated SMNP servers, or is there a way to enter username and password as part of the server name?
I have a problem, everytime i type a text, it is overwriting what i have typed. i assume that the mode is set to overwriting,
I want to insert the text not overwrite it, but i can't disable it because my insert key is mix up with my delete key so everytime i enter insert to disable the overwrite mode, it just delete what i type.
so how to disable this? it's getting very annoying..
i'm using centOS.. and it seems that my problem is only related to netbeans because when i type here, it is set to insert mode.. but in netbeans, it just overwrites the codes! help!
I'm using Fluid to handle Gmail, and I'd like to also use the same instance for Wave in another tab. How do I get it to open both Gmail and Wave when the application initially opens. I tried using | as a delimiter in the homepage field like Firefox uses, but it didn't work.
I recently built my own PC from parts and installed Windows 7 and I have been getting BSODs with various different stop codes.
The latest was 0x24, but I've also had 0xd1 and 0x1e. However, Windows does not let me know where the fault occurred, so I have no idea how to go about resolving this.
I know the cause is likely a hardware driver, but I don't know which and cannot find information about how to use the minidumps to troubleshoot my problem.
I've uploaded the last three minidumps in case someone can make sense out of them and let me know what could be causing my BSODs.
Thanks,
Ben

There was a graphical X-windows game on a 2D field, where you compete against computerized players (Bill Gates' clones?) to install operating systems on PCs.
You'd click a PC to install linux on it, but the little Bills would run around and put Windows back on it, etc...
What was this called? Anyone remember?
Thanks
I've been using the dd-wrt firmware on my router and I like it a lot!
But -- I'm not sure the quality of service (QoS) is working on it. I have it set up as follows:
http, port 80 -- Premium
bittorrent, port 6969 -- Bulk
https, port 443 -- Premium
dns, port 53 -- Premium
Per the QoS documentation, these levels are:
bandwidth is allocated based on the following percentages of uplink and downlink values for each class:
Exempt: 100mbps - ignores global limits.
Premium: 75% - 100%
Express: 15% - 100%
Standard: 10% - 100%
Bulk: 1.5% - 100%
This doesn't entirely seem to work, though -- with busy torrents going I get major pauses in my web browsing which sucks!
The QoS documentation gives some steps to check the QoS ...
What you'll be interested to look at will be the first set of source and destination IP, including the port numbers. Next the presence of l7proto and the "mark" field. The entries indicate the current live connection QoS priority applied on them based on the "mark" field. The "mark" values correspond to the following
Exempt: 100
Premium: 10
Express: 20
Standard: 30
Bulk: 40
(no QoS matched): 0
You may see "mark=0" for some l7proto service even though they are in configured in the list of QoS rules. This may mean that the layer 7 pattern matching system didn't match a new or changed header for that protocol. Custom service on port matches will usually take care of these.
On port 6969 (bittorrent) I see a weird mixture of stuff with mark=0 and mark=40 like so
cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack

I've been playing around with this log for a little while and I can't see any patterns!
Why is some port 6969 bittorrent traffic tagged mark=0 (not matched) by dd-wrt's QoS while others are tagged mark=40 (Bulk) .. any ideas?
I searched and couldn't find a solution for this anywhere. I'm using PuTTY from Windows to connect to various servers where I run bash and screen. It seems bash works fine with ctrl-arrow keys to jump word-to-word on the command line but within screen it's not working. Not in screen, ctrl-left sends "^[OC and ctrl-right is "^[OD". Within screen I instead get "^[[C" and "^[[D", which appears to be the codes for just the left/right arrow keys. Is there any way to get screen to recognize ctrl-arrow keys when using PuTTY? (FYI, I don't remember having this problem when using gnu-terminal in linux instead of PuTTY).
We have hp rp2470 server running hp-ux 11.00, with LVM mirroring. As for redundancy we have second rp2470 same hw (same two processors, same ram, same two hdd’s, same number of lan cards).
I want to clone first one to the second. For that purpose I am making ignite tape with the following command: make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00
Ignite tape finishes without problems. When I boot second server from this ignate tape, server is starting to boot, and ignite restore finishes without any errors, only few notes, which are normal.
However vmunix is not booting and when restore finishes, it boot to ISL prompt.
From this I cannot boot /stand/vmunix.
I tried to run recovery shell but no success. When recovery shell ask to do frecover to restore critical files, then I receive error: frecover(5405): unable to open /dev/rmt/0m
At first I thought that the problem might be in the difference of the firmware version of the servers:
fw version of production server is: Firmware Version 43.50
and fw version of backup server is: Firmware Version 42.19
So i did a fw upgrade of my backup server so that both servers are v43.50, and tried a recovery but again cant boot the system.
Next I did another archive tape with -I (Interactive) flag:
make_tape_recovery -I -x inc_entire=vg00
and tried recovery with it, again no good.
I cannot find any error or warnings on ignite log, and I cannot boot hpux. I am only on ISL prompt.

I accidentally disabled the administrator account on an install of Windows Server 2008 R2 via the net user command.
Now I cant get an elevated command prompt to re-enable the admin user, nor do any privileged operation that requires an admin password. Normally I would type in a password and click yes but there is no password field and yes is grayed out.
How can I re-enable the administrator account?
I manage a server with two-factor authentication. I have to use the Google Authenticator iPhone app to get the 6-digit verification code to enter after entering the normal server password. The setup is described here: http://www.mnxsolutions.com/security/two-factor-ssh-with-google-authenticator.html
I would like a way to get the verification code using just my laptop and not from my iphone. There must be a way to seed a command line app that generates these verification codes and gives you the code for the current 30-second window.
Is there a program that can do this?
