kindly help me to which one should i go for
I'm trying to choose between the Lenovo Thinkpad W500 and the older T61p. The W500 is said to have a higher quality display than the T61p, however there seem to be more problems with running Linux on it. One of the reasons for this is the fact that it has switchable graphics, with one of the GPUs being an ATI FireGL. The older T61p comes with Nvidia Quadro FX only, which as we know is more Linux-friendly.
Which model should I choose? Will certain issues such as being able to suspend / resume be cleared up with newer kernel releases?
I was extraction some file through command line then I encounter on notification from winrar. This file exist what u want to do replace never quite I don't want that winrar will prompt me to choose action. Everytime whenever this situation occur it will overwrite / skip that file Syntax I am using for unrar rar e -pmypassword filename
i am using acer extensa 4620 laptop of 32bit architecture with core 2 duo processor and 1 gb ddr2.i have installed RHEL 6. i want to do practice on virtual machine for my rhce exam.due to 32bit architecture i am not able to use kvm one more problen,during installation of RHEL6 i cannot use "install or upgrade" option while booting dvd.after entering this opiton my screen goes blank nathing comes,but i am able to install usic "basic video driver option" same problem i face when i enter in rescue mode also..... nothing is displayed...the screen goes blank
I have installed Fedora 13 lately, however its architecture is i686... i want to install the GNU C Compiler (both c and c++)..... now i searched for i686 architecture gcc but most of them are not compiled.. and are archives e.g., gcc-4.4.1.tar..... Also, some RPMs say about dependencies. Is there a simpler solution?
How to install Gcc, i dont have any compiler in Fedora even cc is not there!! I installed fedora from a live cd i got with the Digit Magazine!
I'm using Core 2 Duo. So, from Intel website I found that it is 64-bit architecture CPU.
Long back I've installed Ubuntu OS on this machine. But I'm not sure if I installed x86-32 or x86-64 version of Linux. I want to know which version of Linux I'm using. How to know that?
I've just finished installing debian 5.0.3 on my pc and i chose the installation set for the Intel x86 architecture. Does it mean that my OS is then 32 bit and will be used to run only 32 bits applications ? I'm doing also software developments with gcc with my linux box. Using this os and the gcc tools, for this os, will my software only be 32 bits ?
I am trying to insert a .ko into my kernel and I am getting the 'invalid module format' error. But the kernel object is being generated from or is included in a binary which sets up and populates a driver path when run. How can I tell what architecture/target/anything that .ko is meant for?
I know that I can use the uname and /proc/cpuinfo to see my current info, but I am also not sure what I might need to do to get them to sync up. I am running on a minimal, cli-install of Ubuntu8.10 right now. It's freshly installed (onto a 2GB USB drive) & imaged, so bring on the drastic changes.
I've been running Fedora 10 since it came out (I'm doing some numerical modeling for my thesis), but I've got some questions about a new box I'm going to build. I am going to build a new 64bit machine, dual boot with Win7 and Poseidon Linux (waiting for the 64bit version to come out later this year).is there an advantage to having each OS reside on a different physical HDD? meaning - 1 hard drive for Win and 1 hard drive for Linux and just decide which HDD to boot when I turn the machine on. -or is it better to have them reside on the same HDD and just have a separate HDD for data / storage? -is there a good resource to describe some optimal architecture's? I've searched through the forums and haven't found anything that concise / on-target / similar. As additional info: this box will be my livelihood, so right now, money is not really an object in terms of HDDs, etc.
What are the challenges that are involved in porting an Operating system to a new architecture? Say I want to port linux to new architecture called XYZ, what are the things that should be taken care of?
I'm trying to cross compile the GNU make for Alpha Architecture on my i686 PC and the GNU make i compiled would be placed in my virtual hard disk which is a Alpha based linux simulated system. My question is now , I'm able to cross compile the GNU make on my i686 real PC machine , but when i let the make program run in my virtual machine , it pops out the error ..
make: /lib/libc.so.6.1: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by make)
After that, I try another alternative , and I read through the file "INSTALL" on the GNU make directory that I downloaded from the internet . In this case , I downloaded make-3.81. On the sub section "Compiling For Multiple Architectures" It says that
"You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their own directory. To do this, you must use a version of `make' that supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run the `configure' script.`configure' automatically checks for the source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'. If you have to use a `make' that does not support the `VPATH' variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a time in the source code directory. After you have installed the package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring for another architecture." And I do not understand the line "by placing the object files for each architecture in their own directory" . What object files that I should put ?
I am somewhat new to linux but I am good with computer and can learn fast so difficulty level doesn't really matter I just need an all around good fast nice looking linux distro.Any ideas? Please tell me why I should try that version of linux.
We are starting the development of a project in PHP+MySQL that will become a software-as-a-service.After starting and planning how we would deploy the project, the first thing that came into our mind was: the project will be hosted on our Debian stable server and will contain all of our clients databases and each client folders for the project (and of course, a separate server for backups) and all projects running "under" the same apache and mysql server. This was our preferred approach.
Another friend suggested us -as a second approach for the deployment- that instead of having all projects and all databases running under the same physical server and under the same apache and mysql, that we could build our own "cloud" using something like openQRM and have each one of the projects deployed in a separate "virtualized" server (one virtual server per client) and this way the resources are better balanced and is easier to recover a virtual server if crashed as the backups are made of the virtual servers images. He said that this is a very new concept that is taking the internet services market more and more.
So, we started to research about the "cloud computing" concept in order to have a better idea of this second suggestion our friend gave to us.In terms of performance, it seems to me that the "cloud" approach could consume a lot of moreresources than the first approach ?? and is a lot harder to maintain and extend ??I would really appreciate your opinions and recomendations on which option is really worth for what we are going to offer to our clients.
I'm currently using a Lenovo x200s laptop, which I am very happy with. I have Linux installed, and I would like to upgrade the existing HD to use a solid state drive. I was wondering how I could find a good compatible SSD for this laptop.
Is there some standard size/configuration HD that this laptop supports?
I'm still to install Linux (waiting for a replacement of a bad DIMM) on my new box. It will probably be CentOS, following 'Rubberman's recommendation in forum/coffee-lounge/166195-distro-recommendation-development-use.html .
I assume (as I haven't installed Linux before) there could be a choice of file systems. Is there any recommendation on what I should/could use ?
The solution should be capable to use intranet only (no communication should traverse the inernet). It would be of an advantage if it would support conferencing. And if it's possible it'd be fine if it'd be free.
One solution which comes to my mind is jabber, but I do not have any experience with it... what's your oppinion on that? What other solutions are there?
I'm a photographer and I have a requirement find a better method of storing my photos other than multiple USB2 drives via USB hubs. Currently I use a Macbook Pro and 6 external drives connected via USB2 or FW800. 3 are a copy of the first three, kept up to day manually by running an rsync backup. I'd like to run a FreeNAS or OpenFiler NAS box using 2TB drives mirrored via software RAID. But - I would like to have the flexibility of also plugging into the drive physically for the faster throughput when necessary. My question is, is there a file system that both *nix and Mac OSX will play nice with?
I have a list of files that I am copying around for various purposes. What my current command looks similar to this:cat list_of_files | xargs -I {} /bin/cp -f {} /destination/dirI am using the full path to cp so that the default alias of cp -i does not take effect. However, when I find a duplicate file, it is overwriting any that have already been copied. What I would like to do is to force cp to not overwrite and not prompt.
I have a small script that uses the find command to look for a log file named: backup_log.txt. And then uses the first value in the log file as a variable in the script later on. However, say there are two or more of these log files located in different directories, how would I let the user choose which log file will be the one to use, and then make that (fullpathtofile) the value of the variable that will be used.
I got an 8 GB USB Memory stick wich I want to use, I dont want to install Linux on my harddrive, I want it portable and on an USB stick.
What I need is a distribution thats big with lots of programs and the Ability to Save files and configurations Directly on the USB Memory stick, and it should be able to run apache, mysql,php and java.
I want the USB memory stick to act like a harddrive so to speak.
Also, I already downloaded and tried Knoppix Live CD, but I cant get knoppix 6.4.4 to work, but an older version worked. But its so small, not so many programs. Is there a way to install lets say a DVD version of a distro to USB and make it work like the live version?
I tried to dual boot my lenovoT6570 with Fedora14 and win7. But the linux becomes extrememly slow and the firefox window cannot even be clicked. I reinstalled the linux again but the same problem persists. Is it compatible with dual booting? any solution or suggestion?
I create a script and when I execute it, a dialog show for me choose one option: Run in Terminal, Display, Cancel and Run. I want run it automatically without choose option.
