However I still not much works, not an ethernet or wifi works, the video is still running on vesa, which doesnt give me the full video acceleration. Any recomendation ...

Linux on Dell 17R with Intel Corei5

I got a Dell Inspiron 17R but have had issues trying to run linux on it. Anyone has a similar hardware that can tell me how to get it to run it. First I try a 32bit install and realize that this is not a 32 bit architecture and try installing the x86_64 version but still had issues. Basically it boo...

Re: How Do I Network Two Linux Boxes?

At least he did not ask about clustering. Then there would be a real can of worms. if someone ordered a steak, would not someone need to ask how the steak needed to be cooked? if someone ordered a network, would not someone need to know how it was to be generally set up? yes we will all asume that ...

Re: How Do I Network Two Linux Boxes?

OK, this is getting way off subject here, but seeing as I *am* a network admin... If you posted in the paper "Need Network Admin" with only that and an email addy to send resumes, you'd be inundated with resumes from folks who consider themselves network admins, but in reality can barely get a link...

Re: How Do I Network Two Linux Boxes?

Are you serious? You think asking someone, especially a newbie, to vi files in /etc is reasonable and "straight forward?" Especially someone who was upset when asked to define "network" and was upset that almost everywhere they looked people were suggesting client/server rather than peer-to-peer? M...

Re: Pat - Dann screwed up your show

I merely cited examples of Linux and F/OSS bashing from two TWIT shows. The speakers words are their own. Nothing manufactured. Manufactured would of been piecing together different sentences word by word. I didn't do that. Ok you stick to that story. But it's pretty clear you were desperately tryi...

Re: How Do I Network Two Linux Boxes?

nfs is pretty straightforward just chane 1 line on the server and perform one comand on the client and u are all set. You dont need to deal with users issues etc. You might consider including the file change and command for those of us in the dark. Mmmm did you miss my earlier post? http://thelinux...

Re: How Do I Network Two Linux Boxes?

I don't use the brown OS except on my lappy, and even there it's the K version, and I wasn't suggesting that there isn't a GUI, I was asking if there is a good one. Even so, I still don't see a compelling reason to prefer NFS over CIFS on a simple home network.. Because NFS is faster and is easier ...
