Quote from Jakg :My board has an 8-pin connector in the top-left corner - my old PSU had the connector, but my new one doesn't - could this being unplugged be the reason? If so - where do I get one from?

I think that 8-pin connector can be splitted into two 4-pins. A lot of these new PSU have one that can anyway. Just try and wriggle it a little and see if it comes apart.

Quote from G!NhO :We have a boat, a horse trailer and a caravan. we need a jeepto pull those things, get it!?

many other cars arent even allowed to pull the boat.


not true at all

Do you prefer to tow that caravan with a petrol engine, or a diesel engine?

Quote from CSU1 :OT:

In folder properties permissions tab there is a group named 'other', what catagory does the group 'other' fall into?

http://www.linuxsecurity.com/content/view/118181

Quote :Why is this group given permissions to create and delete inside installation files by default?

Because that's the... default? What installation files are you talking about?

Quote :What system services reside in 'other'?

How do I apply permissions to individual system services whitelisting them folder access permissions?

As explained in the article linked above, you use chmod. However, you're best off not changing them, otherwise things may break. Why do they need to be changed?

For it's use Linux is very good. And no Jack, it's not a program, but an OS.
I agree that as a desktop OS for the masses it's not there yet, but still, you can accomplish most of the same things there as you can in Windows. It's true strength however is on the server side. And there's a good chance that one of your digital devices, or one that you buy in the future has Linux in it.

If it hadn't been for LFS, I would be perfectly fine with Linux as my primary OS.

If the drive is making clicking sounds, it's a sure sign of mechanical failure. It may seem to work ok sometimes, and others not. But it will just get worse and at some point you won't be able to read anything from it, and the computer won't reckognize the drive. So better backup the data before that happens and replace the drive imo.

Feeling like you're driving on a thin layer of ice? Yep, I feel that too. And more and more with each patch it seems. The last time I felt really good grip on the road was in patch Q (best patch ever!). Just hope there will be more grip in the future.

Intel GMA graphics are pretty rubbish. My quite new HP notebook has it, and I only get around 25 fps in single player with low detail settings. My previous 4 year old notebook with an ATI graphics had twice that fps.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :Most anti-virus programs don't pick up on EVERY virus, therefore (personally) it's better to have 2 of the better AV programs so it's much less likely to miss one.

Read this for an explanation on how that's generally not a good idea.

Speed Racer

How people get away with making such crap, is beyond me. The whole concept screamed bad before I saw it, and it didn't fail. All these unreal cars going like a 1000km/h, doing 360's, jumps and what not. Was very confusing.

Do as Krammeh is suggesting. I guess vB 3.5 and 3.7 is so different that you will need to setup 3.7 pretty much from scratch anyway. At least template wise.

Also, if you move the attachments out of the database and into the filesystem, you might get under the 2MB limit.

@Jakg, from those benchmarks my conclusion is that you should go for SCSI.
But to be serious, I think running more than one RAID array on your MB should be fine. Will probably hurt performance a tiny bit, since software RAID uses the CPU, i.e. the performance of a software-based array is dependent on the CPU performance and load. If you can afford it, investing in a hardware based RAID card is well worth it.
