Hey, all. I've got a big ol' RAID box that I use to store... well, pretty much everything. Threw 64-bit Ubuntu on it, 'cause, well, why not?
I now know why not. I'm afraid I've fallen into the portable device rage, e.g., my Droid-X. Nifty thing, it is -- even set it up with VPN, SIP through my job, and all sorts of other fun stuff. Now I'd like to play video from my server on the phone. Unfortunately, its media player is pretty useless -- far better to generate video from the server, and stream it, apparently. But! 64-bit CODECs are also kinda lousy. And it's not like I have a oodles of RAM -- 2 GB -- so dropping to a 32-bit system won't really harm anything. But Googling that doesn't really help much. Any suggestions? What I'd *love* to do is an "apt-get update;apt-get dist-upgrade", and be done with it. Somehow, though, I'm thinking it won't be that simple. I'd really like to avoid a full re-install -- a lot of configuration has gone into this silly thing, and, while I could backup /etc and pray that was enough, I'd prefer not to find out the hard way. Thanks for any suggestions, -Ken _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
