Thank you very much indeed.
youtube-dl works fine and is probably all I need because it seems
to work for a lot of other sites. I just tested it for Dailymotion.

Thanks also for the get-flash-videos link which I am glad to study
in detail, including the git port I've now installed.

FreeBSD is a wonderful OS!

Yes, it's in ~/.opera, for example:
me@pollux:~ % file .opera/cache/g_002C/opr004FM.tmp
.opera/cache/g_002C/opr004FM.tmp: Macromedia Flash Video

Really happy,

I agree. Firefox gets vulnerable every now and then.
And it takes many many hours to upgrade it on my old
« Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.60GHz » system.

For now I am happy with w3m and,
if text browsing is unsufficient, with opera.

PostgreSQL Slony-I Replication

2012-07-01 Thread Iqbal Aroussi
Hi dear friends,

I'm trying to setup a master-slave replication with PostgreSQL 9.1 /
Slony-I, this is first time I'm doing it and I'm kind of lost :(
Is there any tutorial explaining the steps how to do it with FreeBSD ?

I'm using FreeBSD db1 9.0-RELEASE / postgresql-server-9.1.4 / slony1v2-2.1.1

Thanks a lot in advance

Best Regards

Iqbal A.

Re: OT: Linux EXT4 dump/restore equivalent?

It's unclear to me how "a version of restore that supports ext4"
would differ from "a version of restore that supports UFS".

AFAIK restore (unlike dump) is FS-agnostic:  it must understand the
format of the dumpfile, but it needs no knowledge of how the FS is
represented on disk because it uses ordinary system calls (open,
write, etc.) to access the FS.

What you _do_ need on that recovery disk -- along with a generic
restore -- are ext4-aware versions of the kernel, fsck, mkfs, mount,
and (arguably) dump.
