I know this isn't an ext3 help channel...but I haven't gotten a satisfactory answer elsewhere (usually it just consists of a "*shrug*" on the #redhat channel)
I've got a thinkpad running RH 7.3 with two ext3 partitions. Being a laptop it has occasionally had its batteries die and been shutdown improperly. Invariably, there has been a subsequent long fsck.... long....like 10 minutes....once I even was dropped to the maintenance shell to run it manually (yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes...when the hell would I *NOT* want to fix the non-zero dtime????)
Isn't the whole point of ext3 so I don't have to go through this pain? This was an extremely generic installation of 7.3, why am I seeing no benefit to ext3?
Ended up picking Maya, as its got a great C++ API that exposes darn near everything
I'm not a game programmer nor a graphic artist. Can someone explain to me why I'd want an API library to the tool that designs my models? Once my model is in my MMPORPG is it going to call a Maya library function in-game?
I'm thinking of building a dedicated linux based PVR, but I know very little about video capture. All I want to do is timeshift broadcast TV. I know there are many capture cards, and when I read the specs I don't get a feel for what is the most important. I think that I'm moving towards a hauppauge winTV-pci because that is in my pricerange. However, I'm not sure that a P2-266 (my spare box) is up to the encoding challenge in a reasonable amount of time.
Can anyone point me to a very generic linux PVR project or page?
Avoid the "edifice complex". Do you really need 4400 ft^2? Sure, I understand that a smaller house would stand out like a sore thumb in a smaller neighborhood, but thats a lotta house!
Every week in our real estate section we can find featured houses that are less than 5 years old, being sold by the people who built their "dream house" only to find that its now too big. IMHO a house that big is like a St. Bernard puppy, you don't realize how big it really is when it grows up, especially the cleanup!
Another pet peeve. Ever been in a 4400 ft^2 house that echos like a gym because the new owners can't afford nice drapes and furniture and art/mirrors to fill the place up?
If you can afford the neighborhood, the taxes, the furnishings, the maintenance and the upkeep of a house that big, then saving $100k might not be that high on your priority list.
My family of 5 live more than comfortably in a 2300 ft^2 house.
I'm a very very happy owner of a Viewsonic Viewpad 100 SuperPDA and I'm using it on an 802.11b wireless LAN. Touchscreen, handwriting recognition, voice recording ( I understand there is even a voice recognition package available )

About 6 years ago, our little town in southeastern New England said that the town hall would be late mailing out all our quarterly tax bills because the mouse on the computer in the town hall was broken! (I really should have kept that newspaper clipping!)

So at twice the speed, I can gather enough packets to crack WEP encryption keys in half the time using Airsnort. Seriously, I really want secure security! My office won't move to wireless until there is cheap and proven FIPS-140 compliant security.
EDS was awarded a contract to replace roughly 360,000 desktops running $whatever with Windows 2000. No one will have admin rights, no one will be able to install software, etc. Read about it at EDS.com
I believe its a $6B contract, and its in progress right now. I'm not sure if the consensus is that they're being successful or not, but its the biggest single example of a "managed solution" that I've ever seen.
I double the initial estimate and go to the next higher unit.
When you factor in specification meetings, design reviews, actual coding, testing, and finally release (lather, rinse, repeast) it can be remarkably close.
I have 3 kids, 6, 9 and 11. How "age appropriate" is this movie? I'm sure its ok for the oldest, questionable for the middle, and probably not for the youngest? Note, they are all well behaved and never make a peep in movies so don't worry, we won't spoil your fun:)
Not only do I 100% agree with the "RTFM" comment I can also add that the last time I submitted a bug report to Microsoft (scripting engine problem with the Visual Studio IDE) they *phoned* me back to walk me through the fix.

I'm in the same boat. We've got a Sybase installation that has evolved over the past 7 years. It's grown to about 20GB, which I know is really not that big. I don't think I'd have any problem moving the data, as most of our data typing is pretty standard.
However, we have hundreds and hundreds (my guess is nearly 3000) triggers and stored procedures. Migrating the data is completely useless for me unless we can somehow migrate the T-SQL too....and I strongly suspect thats not gonna happen.

The DCMA was enacted in 1998 and obviously predates Dick Cheney by several years.

ya, there's a cut&paste space in the url. I saw it after I posted, but I figured that it was pretty obvious :)
You can url encode stock symbols and get back XML from nasdaq via something like

Hey Nickelodeon! My kids (6, 9, 11) love this show! especially Gir. I, an "older parent" also love this show.
Hate to see it go :(

Not strictly for linear programming, but Octave (http://www.octave.org) is an important tool on your numerical analysis toolbelt.

Also, I want to add that I really love MSDN.

So, does anyone have any thoughts on this?
