Comment on SLT ADSL Speed test. by Umapathy

Umapathy — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 09:48:41 +0000

3 weeks ago I was in Jaffna and the connection dialog connection downloads speed sucks at 0.1 Mbps when connection. I don’t belive they are offering any good server. They are just cheaters. I only got a KIT connection and I will never ever come back to them for sure. I called the customer care and told that the service is slow and the customer care told me to disable the firewall. What hell I should disable the firewall. The very same computer gave a speed of 0.88Mbps when connected to a adsl xcite connection.

Could you give an example of when it didn’t work? I will try to improve the code

Sigh. This, as with most date and time hacks, works “most of the time”.

Comment on Fedora 12 (Rant) by admin

The point of fedora is cutting edge technology, yes. But it most certainly isn’t shipping products that are known to be completely and utterly broken and/or useless

Comment on Fedora 12 (Rant) by ant

well, that is the point of fedora. its a development playground where new ideas are trialed and tested to see what people think of them, and to get more testing / bug reports from a larger user base. If you dont want to help dont run it, or if you dont mind the experimental nature but prefer a bit more stability than bleeding edge (as I do myself) then sit one release behind current. As the support cycle covers the last two releases thats a decent place to be. I only installed fedora 11 after fedora 12 had come out, and found after bringing it up to date it was fine from there. However ive just tried f12 on my work machine and found its still too green for me. 3 screens on nvidia with 64bit kernel is proving very buggy

Comment on CDAX on Linux by admin

Please note that my original post is from the year 2005 and I am speaking of CDAX 5.4 here. I am happy to hear that they have finally figured out how to make the darned thing work on OS X at least five years later.

I’m glad you’re the top google result for “java time difference”.

I hate the official JavaDocs. It’s like they went through as much trouble to tell as little useful information as possible, without examples.

Comment on Fedora 11 on amazon ec2 by David Pinn

Thanks for the tip. I will check out the Centos 5.4 AMI provided by Rightspace. I will be interested to know how you experience the process of installing a new image on the loopback device.

Hi to install cdax pro on Ubuntu(9.10), you have to download Apple mac os installer, which is jar file (cdax-6.4.jar). Open it and open with archive manager there you find directory in your home folder called cdax 6.3. Open it and click & Run cdax file.

I recommend that you use the Centos 5.4 AMI provided by Rightspace (mentioned above). Centos is very similar to Fedora so you will not have any trouble.

I am frustrated by this to the max. I’m really new to Linux and I fear wading into the waters that gave even (more experienced) you some trouble. But I don’t want to be running an aging version of Fedora. What to do? Ubuntu?

Comment on Apache 2.2 client denied by server configuration by Mark

Mark — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 18:42:06 +0000

I think there is a cut and paste error for the vhost example. In the vhost directory block use “Allow from all” rather than “Deny from all”:

…
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all

Comment on Foreign Keys and mysql by admin

admin — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 09:10:27 +0000

Foreign keys are not a must. You can have a perfectly good database design without foreign keys. But then there are certain advantages to having them too. They help to ensure that your data is consistent.

Concern is someone being able to pass the ‘;’ character by an exploit What follows thereafter will execute as a separate command

Comment on ssh_exchange_identification by a pundit. by Nivedita Newar

Nivedita Newar — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 13:13:37 +0000

There is in fact a temporary solution to this problem. The server recognizes the machine which is trying to ssh by its ip address. So in case the problem is too many sessions, then we can simply change the IP address of the requesting machine.

Comment on Gnash WTF? by Benjamin Wolsey

Benjamin Wolsey — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 12:39:27 +0000

The Gnash plugin passes no more and no less than the variables that the embedding script requests. The Adobe plugin does exactly the same, only you don’t see it.

The copyright message comes from the fact that Gnash’s plugin description contains it. The embed script is copying the plugin description available in Javascript and passing it to the player. Why the webpage author wants to do this is anyone’s guess…

Passing all this via the command line isn’t ideal for other reasons, but it is no more or less secure than passing those variables directly to the player. Why do you think it should be a problem?

Comment on ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host (solved) by Nick

Nick — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 15:11:47 +0000

Though that may be one answer, my answer was that something happened in my ~/.ssh/know_hosts file. I removed that file and at next connect, it asked me to verify the RSA key and it let me in, no problem.

Comment on Macbook Blank Screen solved. by admin

Try rebooting in safe mode, A friends MBP with snow leopard suddenly blacked out and reseting NVRAM and the other remedies you tried didn’t work on it either. In the end, we did a safe mode boot up and guess what it started up

Comment on Macbook Blank Screen solved. by AndyS

AndyS — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 01:52:37 +0000

MBP 3.1 OS X 10.6.2. 4GB RAM, 72000rpm, nVidia GeForce 8600M GT (but I have no problems with video). I was advised to do a NVRAM reset as part of a reinstallation of a presonus programme (Firestudio Project), and I’m left with a Black Screen! Have tried the SMU resEt too. Nothing. PAM. Nothing.

Any help gratefully received as I’m in Spain, and they are soooo behind the rest of the world. They dont even have an Apple Store, so geniuses are out

Many thanks in advance.

Forums are absolutely useless. Soon as you post a question some pundit suggests that you switch distros and it rapidly spirals downwards from there. But all distros are equally lousy
