I'd like to improve my computer's performance by storing files' system location (e.g.: /home/user/speech.odt) and HD position (head, sector, etc) and do the computer use that info from ram memory.I have a directory with several files and when I cd and ls it, it takes a while to the computer answer me. Plus, it would return immidiate find results.
View 2 RepliesI'm using vim 7.2.330 on 64 bit ubuntu 10.04, sometime in the last week every time I reopen a file it places the cursor at the top of the file. I can see in ~/.viminfo where it's saving the last position used, but it doesn't seem to be honoring it.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow do i disable the linux file cache on a xfs partition (both read an write).
We have a xfs partition over a hardware RAID that stores our RAW HD Video. Most of the shoots are 50-300gb each so the linux cache has a hit-rate of 0.001%.
I have tryed the sync option but it still fills up the cache when copinging the files. ( about 30x over per shoot :P )
/etc/fstab:
/dev/sdb1 /video xfs sync,noatime,nodiratime,logbufs=8 0 1

I love how totem handles using mousewheel up/down to change position in a media file. VLC doesn't do it the same way by default so I've been trying to find a way to replicate that feature. I found the appropriate actions and assigned mousewheel up/down for both the hotkey and global options. Unfortunately when I try to seek it only works if I mouse over the position bar or lower half of the application. If I am moused over the actual video the hotkeys don't work. In fullscreen the hotkeys don't work at all and I can only seek by holding my mouse over the position bar.

I know JohnVV. "Install a supported version of Fedora, like Fedora 11". This is on a box that has all 11 releases of Fedora installed. It's a toy and I like to play around with it.
I was laughing about klackenfus's post with the ancient RH install, and then work has me dig up an old server that has been out of use for some time. It has some proprietary binaries installed that intentionally tries to hide files to prevent copying (and we are no longer paying for support or have install binaries), so a clean install is not preferable.
Basically it has been out of commission for so long, that the apt-get upgrade DL is larger than the /var partition (apt caches to /var/cache/apt/archives).
I can upgrade the bigger packages manually until I get under the threshold, but then I learn nothing new. So I'm curious if I can redirect the cache of apt to a specified folder either on the command line or via a config setting?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using an embedded linux with a TX25 starterkit board.To start, this board proceeds as below :1. connect to my PC to download the kernel (using a ftp connection).2. uncompress the kernel and start it.3. connect to my pc to mount the root file system using nfs.. start the system.Everything works fine, except that I noticed there's maybe a nfs cache issue.for example, if a program run on the board creates a file in /home, I can see it from my PC (nfs server). => perfect !But if a program creates a file in /var/lib/dpkg/, I can see it from the board but not from my PC, so when I restart the board everything is lost.It seems to be a bad configuration.I tried to restart the nfs and nfslock services.here is my /etc/eports file.

View 5 Replies View Relatedi am running Ubuntu Lucid x64 as a fileserver that shares its files via SFTP, NFS and Samba. Currently the hard disks are configured to go to standby if they are not needed. This works perfectly as long as no one browses the shares or my HTPC is running: That one repeatedly looks through the shares for new music or movies. In other words my problem is that the disks are spinning up a lot more often than they should have to. Additionally the spin-up time delays the response time while browsing. Since the machine has a lot of unused RAM i want to tell the kernel that it should keep the directory structure in memory. That way the disks would not need to spin up every time someone browses through the directories.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I run ddclient with an existing ddclient.cache file I get errors saying "uninitialized value" and the remote IP address does not get updated. This pretty much renders ddclient useless. If I delete the cache file then things work fine and the IP address *does* get updated (if need be). I happen to be running version 3.7.3 of ddclient but I've tried this with ddclient 3.8.0 and the result is exactly the same except that the line number in the error changes to line 2030.
Here's the code at that line number :

I lastly used KDE (version 1.x ). Now I'm using KDE 3.5 for several weeks and one thing really annoys me: there are a lot of programs that don't remember their last window position and/or size. They always default to a specific location/size when I close and open them again. I give you some examples:
Program that doesn't remember anything:
- Konqueror
Program that remembers window size, but not position:
- KMail
Nice Program that remembers everything:
- Basket Note Pads
Is there a way to tell these programs to remember their position/size?And a second question about konqueror: Can I tell konqueror to remember the view mode? I prefer MultiColumn view, but it always defaults to Icon view.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn my CentOS configuration, when I use vim6.3 to edit a file, then close it, and re-open it, my cursor starts out at the line where I last left off. In my cygwin (on Windows) configuration, when I use vim7.3, I don't get this behavior. The viminfo does exist and does seem to get read (because if I type '0 it will go to my last cursor location - but that is globally and could change the file being edited). I've also looked at the .viminfo file and see it getting updated as expected. In my .vimrc file, I have this:
Quote: set viminfo='100,<50,f1,"500,/100,:100
Note that on the CentOS side if I open foo, then I open bar, then I open foo again, my cursor is in the right place for foo, whereas on cygwin if I do this, my cursor would be at the 1st line of foo.. If I were to type '0, it would actually switch to editing bar and put the cursor where I last left off. Anyhow, this all boils down to asking how I get my cygwin vim to act like my CentOS vim.
