Hello everyone, I've been out for a couple of weeks, and I just got a reminder that I am supposed to be teaching tomorrow (cell phone calenders are a wonderful...
... Not sure where Dave's slides are (other than on the teaching machine in the shop), but I rebuilt the wiki page that has all his teaching notes: ...
... Yeah, I should have rebooted the computer to test that. I won't be in tomorrow but I will the following week and I'll fix it so it's automatic. sean...
... Thanks Theresa, but I only accomplish a fraction of what a lot you all achieve. In other news, we've gotten 5 hits from wiki.oreillynet.com, which is the...
WOW! Everybody pitched in, there was enough equipment (barely), and we now have 14 machines pre-ready, with PC-Tel789 modems already installed and configured....
Searched eBay under internal modems for 'pctel lot new' and found three listings (look to be all the same) for a lot of 10 new PCI PC-Tels with the 789...
... I already wrote an email directly to the company, since they describe themselves as an eRecycler, asking them if they would consider making a donation to...
... I wasn't able to get it working again today, so I'll have to take you up on your offer to look at it next week. If possible, if you could look at it...
... I will be in next Saturday. But since I close Friday night and will not get home till around 1 or 1:30 a.m., I don't know if I'll be able to do it before...
... No worries. We have 14; we build 3 more next weekend (so we still have the two spares). :-) t. -- *** Propositions arrived at purely by logical means are...
I was unable to su to root in Edubuntu on the machine closest to the bathroom. I tried the root passwords that I knew, but was unsuccessful. I tried the root...
They want lead on who takes IT scrap from them. Does anyone know of IT recyclers -- the people who pull the gold, etc, and then turn the remains into piles of...
... The Conexants are only good to us if we have Linuxant drivers -- and those cost $20 a pop, making it no deal at all. The 3Coms we can use IF they are a...
These are all identical. So if one is good, they are probably all good, or otherwise. I will theck out today. T, if you want to give me a phone, I will call...
... What do you mean, "they are probably all good"? Any PCI modem, even if by the exact same manufacturer, can and most likely will have many different...
... Good job -- turns out I was off on the count for the number of graduate machines needed (we need 15, not 14) and we need some spares built, so the three...
Hey all, I took home with me all the cloned drives we had problems with, and ran the following with the drives plugged into a USB adapter: 1) shred -v -n 0 -z...
Bluetooth is working again. Unfortunately, you have to press the connect buttons on the bottom of the keyboard and mouse and immediately double click the...
Hey all, We have been having troubles with Robert's cloning scripts (we get cloned drives that only boot into GRUB). So, I used the old "dd if=/dev/hda...
Use the line from his script that resizes the partition - resize2fs -f ${partition} (where ${partition} is the partition you want to resize to fill the disk) ...
... already tried that -- copied his scripts for shrinking and expanding a filesystem from the old pbwiki. First ran the fs_expand.sh but it said already fully...
