That software is shipped with the binary libOSMesa.so.4 but it doesn't work. I'm thinking that if I compile it on my system it could work. I'm using Slackware 13.37 with its default kernel.... more »

Help, need file perm list please 
  Okay, it was late, I did something really, really stupid, and although I have it somewhat cleaned up, I will never get this back without help. What I did: Opened an ssh term window to my beautiful new CentOS 6.2 system and became root user, to save time instead of using sudo for getting my web server setup. Yeah, I did "su-" and gave the password to... more »

  Take this picture: LAN<->ROUTER<->MODEM<->[POSSIB LE-FIREWALL]<-> External-Destination Suppose the LAN is, say, somewhere in China and the desired External-Destination is disallowed by the PRC. A paper I have been reading suggests that it is possible to insert a proxy server to the left... more »

fedora 16 
  I have gcc install with this fedora 16 and tried man fread and get no manpages. Also grub seems to be different. I want to change the defaults to boot my windows by default. Bill

  Okay, a bash script has to start with this: ... And a PHP script begins suchly: ...<?php // code ?> The question is, how can one code a script that will run PHP if it's available and if not fall back to bash?

distro question 
  I'm looking for a small distro that will run off a USB stick in whatever the not-Live mode is called, the mode where files on the stick are modified as though it was a regular device. So far the ones that look like candidates are Damn Small Linux and Knoppix, but I haven't played with either one yet. I need to be able to install php-cli on the stick... more »

Final SSD experience 
  After about 10 days my Corsair 240GB Force 3 SSD died. It didn't completely fail but the boot sector was unreadable and I can't trust that other portions of the drive were not also damaged. Speed was/is a concern to me, but reliability is clearly the overriding concern. The drive is going back to Fry's today.... more »
