How do I speed up the latest version of Ubuntu on a VIA C7-M 1.6 GHz based netbook (HP 2133)? For example, full screen videos are very slow in the default configuration.
I want to sell my iPod Touch and buy an Andriod-based phone. However, there are some apps that I have paid for that are only from the iTunes app store where there is no good alternative on Andriod systems (eg. language learning apps with thousands of words, "references" applications).
Is there a program to emulate the apps that I have already purchased (the ones in my \iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications directory) and play them on my desktop?
Since the wall jack is typically always connected to the same port on the switch I would like to be able to know which device is connected at a specific location. In my case I am talking about printers. I have code to go out on the network and find the IP Address of all of my printers, but would like to be able to update a server based on a printer being swapped out of a location for maintenance or repair. Is there a method for determining a port connection?
I'm building up an online store written in PHP. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for open source (or otherwise) product recommendation plugins?
Ideally I'd like something that stores all its information locally on my server, and can provide good recommendations of products based on previous purchases and clicks.
Any hints appreciated!
I have an embedded Geode-based application server with 512MB RAM and I'm about to try to maximize free memory during applications workload, which uses MySQL database 5.5 with InnoDB quite aggressively.
As part of the whole optimization I'd want to introduce
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
sleep 5
echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
in crontab.
How often is it safe to execute something like this?
Any other observation/suggestion is welcome.
I am looking for an alternative to Softerra's LDAP Administrator, simply for the price is over-budget for a small team to test the LDAP credentials.
So I really appreciate if someone can point me to some other alternatives for a Windows-based environment. We've got our Active Directory setup already, I only need a tool to confirm the access as a proof to customers. Sorry I am not a security guru, I am quite the opposite...
Thanks for any suggestion in advance!
Let's consider a scenario like below:
A small web blog build based on LAMP stack and deployed on a shared hosting.
Suddenly it becomes popular in one day and it gets million hits per day.
Since the developer have not consider high traffic, it caused server downtime and crashes.
What would be a quick fix for such a scenario?
BTW I know on cloud Servers I may be able to add more RAM or CPU to avoid that like in Amazon EC2.
Trying to iterate through AmazonS3 that has around 5000+ keys stored in the bucket, used sample code based on provided link on Amazon Developer Guide
http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/ListingObjectKeysUsingNetSDK.html
Issue is iteration fails when NexMarker is passed which has length of more than 128 string characters, which seems unusal as withMarker accepts string as parameter and there is no documentation on limit to withMarker.
request.Marker = response.NextMarker;
Has anyone faced similar issue.
Thanks in advance.
Hi, we have some issues with a client-server based application and we would like to better understand client-server comunication without going to the software company that sold the application. At least we would like to perform the analysis in parallel.
Can you suggest to me a dummy proof application that we can easily get and install to analise client-server traffic?
Many thanks!
I'm a trainer, basically. I'd like to find some sort of Excel-based training that's under the creative commons, or another awesome license.
I want to use it to train others, and make it better.
If this doesn't exist, I may have to write it. Because it should.
Configuration
Windows 7
Intel i7-based platform
ATI Raedon HD 5850 Display card
Virtualbox with ubuntu 10.10 as guest
Problem
I wanted to connect another monitor to my current setup (Which is a single monitor, dell U2711 monitor) so that it would be dedicated to one (or more if possible) virtual machine and for virtual machine use only. Ideally, I do not want the windows desktop to extend to that particular monitor.
Thanks for any help.
I want to use rsnapshot to make backups of some folders on a remote server.
I've already setup Key Based Authentication, and I've specified in rsnapshot.conf:
snapshot_root [email protected]/
however I get the following error:
ERROR: snapshot_root snapshot_root
[email protected]/ - snapshot_root \
must be a full path
So I was wondering if the only way is to mount first the remote server and how (I'm on Ubuntu 9.04)
thanks
I'm based in the UK. I'd like to watch iplayer, 4od, youtube etc on my TV. I've looked at the Roku box, but as far as I can gather this doesn't support youtube or 4od. I don't have cable in my area and don't want to go with Sky.
What options do I have, if any?
UPDATE
My TV has an HDMI connection.
If a netbook is the best or only way to do this, which one would you recommend for connecting to my TV?
I've been asked to setup a server for exchanging non-critical company data e.g. marketing PDF's etc.
Can anyone recommend a Linux-based solution I can use? We're looking for something with a really simple GUI front end here... I've already setup SFTP but they found the process 'too-techy'.
Any ideas would be really welcome...
Thanks!
Recently Gmail introduced an HTML5-based desktop notification feature for Google Chrome users (see this). It's very useful, however, the notifications disappear too quickly (in about 5 seconds) and I couldn't find a way to change the display time. Ideally, I would like the notification to stay for a few minutes if there is no user activity (or about 15 seconds if there is user activity). Is that possible?
Sometimes I want to watch soccer video content on British websites, but they're blocked due to geographic restrictions (I live in the US). Is there a tool or something that I can use to get around this?
I assume the block is ip based.
All,
I am having intermittent network issues that I am having an issue troubleshooting. The issue is outside of my network on one of the hops in my local area. I was wondering if you all knew of a good windows based program that would monitor/log a tracert or something of that nature.
Thanks
I have remote Windows 2003 server with two network interfaces e.g. Cn1 and Cn2.
I need that all traffic goes through Cn1 except for one port (for me it's 3389, rdp for administration) that works over Cn2.
Currently when I setup all connections work through Cn1, I completely lose connection over Cn2 - and can't connect to server via RDP over Cn2. Now I used static routing based on my ip address (which can changed - so it's bad).
Hi, on Mac, you know there is no 'merge files' when you ctrl+c/ctrl+v some folder on another one, it actually replaces it. I'm simply wondering on what UNIX is this based? because correct me if I'm wrong, but "cp - R" DOES merge files, no? And that's what I'm doing via the Finder, copying some files and folders...
thanks!
I have an SDK that must install 32-bit and 64-bit files in the correct places under /usr/lib
for a variety of Linux distributions.
For example, it appears that for Fedora, /usr/lib64 is the 64bit lib, but for Debian based systems, /usr/lib is the 64bit directory.
I want to find out if there is a reliable way to determine the correct locations.
More specifically, is there a way an install script can determine programmatically which are the correct equivalents for /usr/lib for 32- and 64-bit libraries on a given distribution?
Is it possible to create an on-server rule to distribute/forward incoming email to certain mailboxes , based on senders email address.
Example, [email protected] sends an email to @[email protected], and I would like for all emails from this user sent to [email protected], to end up in [email protected] mailbox
I do not want to do a client forwarding, I would like to to it on server in Exchange 2010.
Is it possible?
Thanks
Well, I have a scanned PDF with some slightly changes made by hand and a source file. I wish to make a PDF, which would be searchable (based on the text from the source, the changes would remain as they are).
I am searching a free (and even better - portable) software which would allow me to somehow "combine" the images from a scan and the text from the source DOC file. So it SEEMS like the image is selectable and searchable.
I've written a subscription based web app that I want to charge (by credit card) a monthly fee. There are 3 different plans and once they sign up, they should be billed that amount, automatically, every month until they cancel. Is there an easy way to set this up (some sort of online service maybe?).
Hi, We plan to host our website on a linux server. The site is created using java based technologies and will run on multiple instances of tomcat with apache in the front. I want to go in for a 64 bit linux OS so that I can install 64bit jvm. So my options are :
Ubuntu
Fedora
CentOS
which one (and which version) would be the most stable?
