Slackware :: Is There A Difference Between # And ##

Feb 16, 2010

I've noticed in different config files (inet1.conf, for example) that some lines are commented out with '#' and others are commented out with '##'

Is there any reason for this?

Slackware :: Difference Between Login And Interactive Shells

Apr 22, 2010

I am having trouble distinguishing between login and interactive shells as they relate to terminals. I understand that a login shell is what is started when you login, and an interactive shell is used by scripts and such. I also get that terminals will use an interactive shell by default. What I don't understand is why interactive shells have no prompt by default. Is their a way to get an interactive shell to inherit the normal PS1 prompt? Is it considered bad to do this? Would it be better to have terminals start login shells, and if so why or why not?

Slackware :: 13.37 - Difference Between Huge.s And Hugemps.s Kernels?

May 26, 2011

I'm trying to decide which kernel to install in my Slackware 13.37 installation. What is the difference between huge.s and the hugemps.s kernels ? Does one do something the other does not ? I'm installing Slackware because I've read it has no Pulsemedia baked into it. I hope neither kernel has any of that stuff.

Slackware :: Cfdisk - Difference Between Two Choices When Partitioning

Jun 14, 2011

Although I use Slackware for many years I never understood something. During the creation of partitions, using cfdisk, there are 2 choices. "Beginning" and "End". What's the difference between these two choices? Does this have to do with older Lilo versions?

Slackware :: Difference Between Slack's Firefox And Mozilla's Binary?

Mar 24, 2011

Firefox's Brazilian Portuguese Language Pack has not yet been ported to Firefox 4 so I got Mozilla's Firefox binary in my language, used Pat's Slackbuild for 13.1 and replaced Slack's Firefox with it. I tried compiling it localized from source using the Slackbuild in /source, but all I found to add to the configure options was a "--with-l10n-base=directory" option, which I made point to the pt-BR locale I'd downloaded from Mozilla, but it still compiled in en-US.

My question is: am I missing out on something like the cairo-tee option? If I am, has anyone had success in building a localized version of Firefox around here? How?

The 3.4G is correct because we have removed all non essential file but free space reported by df is not consistent with the actual free space that should be there.

Ubuntu :: What's The Difference Between L And Ls

Sep 18, 2010

I've typed 'l' instead of 'ls' in the terminal by mistake a couple of times, and it seems to do pretty much - but not exactly - the same as 'ls' ('l' appends *, @ etc at the end of filenames which seem to indicate permissions and/or links).

I can't find any documentation on 'l'. 'l --help' gives exactly the same output as 'ls --help'. 'which l' gives nothing. There are no files in my filesystem called only 'l' either - just a couple of unrelated folders.

So what's the difference between l and ls?

Ubuntu :: Difference Between Gdm Or Kmd?

Jun 13, 2011

I have two interfaces, Gnome and KDE. So sometimes I am asked to chose between the 2 display manager gdm (Gnome) or kdm (KDE). I've never noticed any difference. When I have problems with one I have problems with the other, and usually they both seem to function equally well. If you have ever been in a situation where one was better than the other could you please tell me about it? My question is related to troubleshooting a dual-monitor setting but this is another thread, here I'm just asking because I wish to learn a bit more about displays in general.

CentOS 5 :: Difference Between /dev/sdx And /dev/hdx

Mar 17, 2009

While playing a bit (fdisk) with a new machine (Intel 2 Duo E6750) that I have (with 2 SATA disks), I found a "strange" thing. If I boot the server from a Knoppix distro, fdisk sees 2 scsi HDD devices (sda and sdb). Ok, this was the expected. But if I boot the machine with the centOS 5.2 x86_64, while doing the partitioning the disks are recognized as hda and hdb, that is, IDE disks.
