Software :: How Does Browser Identify The OS
Jan 15, 2010
Starting here on the assumption that this is a browser function.Firefox 3.5.3 on ArchLinuxI just tried downloading a free trial of Acrobat 9 to see if I can get it going on CrossOver. The Adobe site will not download because it sees I am not using Windows.I searched in the detailed about:config file and found nothing that looked relevant.So: How does FF (or any broswer) tell a site what OS is being used?

i just updated from karmic 9.10 to lucid 10.04 using the online upgrade option. so far everything is working great. the only issues i am having seem to involve firefox. when i visit videos i get the message "your browser is no longer supported. please upgrade to a modern browser." i am running 3.6 "canonical" so it is "modern". i am able to watch videos after i close the message. it's just an annoyance to get this message every time i view a video.
next, is on some websites (like this one) it will not supply my login info. but on a few sites (like ebay) it does supply my login info. not sure why some sites work while others don't. the info is there when i look under my saved passwords....

I'm surfing along just fine when I select some link in my browser.The status line reports "... waiting for ..." and the browser seems to stall for a long time (minutes). Often, but not every time, I can select the STOP toolbar icon and reload the page. This time things work normally.
I have a similar but different malfunction running Evolution email connected to my hosted IMAP server. I select a message and see "... formatting ..." and then Evolution seems to stall for a long time (minutes). Rarely the stop-reload actions help reading email. Instead,all Evolution windows go dark grey and the entire desktop stalls.[Analysis -- It has the feel of a "network" issue provoking issues within Evolution itself rather than an Evolution-only malfunction.]
Watching the running system with 'htop' and similar, I do not see where some other application or service is sucking all of the available CPU time or such. [Analysis -- It has the feel that either the browser message or the email message were sent into limbo without reaching their intended destination. Stop-reload sends the bits to the right places and so I get results.]

Are there any identifiers on an HDD that can be either seen physically on a "sticker" on the HDD, and the same number/identifier could be read with software solutions?
I mean if I see with e.g.: S.M.A.R.T. that an HDD (in RAID) is failing, then I give out the command:
SOMEMAGIC
then I get an OUTPUT, e.g.: 9835923759237489
and then are ther any stickers on the HDD that has a label: 9835923759237489 ? so the hdd that has to be changed could be identified.

When I mount an usb device, I want to get the information contained in the structure usb_device. This information tally with the device which is being mounted now (dev_name). So I want to get, for example, the path where the device will be mounted (/dev/sda) before it is mounted naturally.

I have a Red Hat Linux system that does not boot. The boot partition is damaged and files cannot be recovered.
I would like to know how to find out which version of Red Hat was installed from the program/data partition which is undamaged and accessible from Fedora Live CD. I assume this is available in a configuration file somewhere.

i'v 2 unmounted partitions /dev/sda8 , /dev/sda9 ... i do the following:
#assume sudo where applicable
mkdir /media/myMtPt
#mount sda8
mount /dev/sda8 /media/myMtPt
[Code]....
if i write anything to /media/myMtPt it'll go to /dev/sda9..but both /dev/sda8 and /dev/sda9 show same mount point /media/myMtPt.. so if somebody else has to find out (without checking the history) to which one will the o/p go if written to /media/myMtPt then what is the way out?

Is there anyway of identifying which modules and drivers are being used on my machine? A log or app? I have a minimal install and what to install another, this time with only the hardware drivers/modules my machine needs (for instance, I don't need software for Xeon processors as I don't have one, therefore don't want that stuff hanging around serving no purpose).

I noticed when running "ps -ef" that there are a bunch of processes listed with brackets. ie "[process]". Some of them appear to be daemons and others look more like kernel modules? I haven't found a program directly associated with them and was hoping somebody could clarify this for me?
Also, if I run a search of the file system with sudo or as root, there is a directory in my home that returns a permission denied. I understand permissions but shouldn't operations as root be able to do/access anything on the system?

I have a 4 disk software RAID array made up of Seagate drives. Let's name them sda, sdb, sdc, sdd. And let's say SDC is failing. Big question. How do i find out which of the 4 physical drives it is? They all look the same to me when i open up the PC case. Maybe some utility which will load up heavy usage on just one drive and i will try to put my finger on them and figure out which one is vibrating? Or maybe there is a smarter way?
