Locate32 for Windows servers

On: What Desktop Search Engine For a Shared Volume?

I have used locate32 on my Windows XP machine for indexing the local and shared drives. My shared volumes server runs Linux, so I tried utilizing its locate-database. Unfortunately I came to the conclusion that locate32 and the Unix/Linux variant of locate are not compatible at all. However, if you are using a Windows server then you can run locate32 on the server and allow the clients machines to access it.

Déjà vu?

On: QuickTime .MOV + Toshiba + Vista = BSOD

I remember having similar problems with QuickTime before with my old graphics card: Tseng Labs ET6000.
When starting a QuickTime movie with the 16bit version in Windows 3.11/95/98 it would completely BSOD, no matter how many different versions of QuickTime 16bit and Tsenglabs drivers I tried.

Most people in Finland speak Finnish, you know.. But there is a minority with Swedish as mothers tongue, to whom I proudly belong. Surely you will also get around by only speaking English too. =) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finland
