[OT] Search results - strange results
hi list, I am occasionally going over the people who browse my site, and try to understand what brought them there. The most popular thing is people in Israel seeking writing a resume. One such browser came from the following link: http://find.walla.co.il/ts.cgi?w=/0q=%EB%FA%E9%E1%FA%20%F7%E5%F8%E5%FA%20%E7%E9%E9%ED Now here's the strange thing. Result #2 in the actual search is my Hebrew HTML resume. Result #7 is my resume in Doc format. In between, there are search results from other sites. My response is: WTF???

Its features are nice though for home networks, macs (especially os 9 and less which don't have pppoe) and for better firewalling of windows etc. Good to know the abbility to let the modem dial to the provider itself, firewall the network, be a dns and dhcp server exists.

fedora core 1 - openoffice 1.1.0-6 Hebrew
Hi, I just upgraded from RH9 to Fedora Core 1 (FC1?) and whereas my experience has been wonderful so far, I found the following two issues: * LPRng disappeared, replaced by CUPS. OK, I don't mind CUPS, except that it didn't support my printer until I found out the following: My printer, an HP LJ 1150, cannot be installed using redhat-config-printer, but needs to be installed using the web interface, instead. Why? (redhat-config-printer does otherwise a nice job with SAMBA printers and with restarting the daemon and with printing test pages, so it isn't allergic to CUPS). Of course, I had to manually change the entry in rc?.d from lpd to cups. * worse than the above is that the supplied version of OOo, 1.1.0-6, doesn't seem to do Hebrew. I tested with the installed-from-tarball 1.1.0, and the latter still works 100%, Hebrew and all, but not so the one that is shipped. Changing locale doesn't make a difference.

First non-related link - fith (family trees up to 7, and again 8 through 12, with 13 being something in Japanese). Mark Volovic - First hit is related to him, his homepage is 27th. First non-him hit is 102th. Likewise Shachar - 4th hit is me, homepage comes in 7th. Shemesh - 3rd hit is me, my homepage. Shachar Shemesh - 1st hit is me (my home page). First non-me hit is 59th. Now, what does that mean? In short - nothing. It has to do with how much each of us invests in his respective home page, how rare the name is, etc. For example - Marc is a far more common name than Shachar, but Volovic is less common than Shemesh. This gives me a relative advantage when searching for first name, and him a relative advantage when searching for last time. When doing both searches, the less common the least common of the two is, the more advantage you have. Now, what does that tell anyone about our respective penis length again?

Re: can't save data on disk-on-key
If the switch doesn't work, try to mount it and unmount it manually. Don't trust the automount, since this is sometimes a problematic issue... When you unmount it, the file should then be copied, so leave the disk-on-key connected for several moments, and only then remove/remount it. Try it with a small file first.

Re: can't save data on disk-on-key
I had a similar problem with my USB disk-on-key. The problem happened when it was mounted as /dev/sda1 on mount point (/mnt/diskonkey in my system). When I changed it to mount as /dev/sda4, the problem disappeared. YMMV, so check also other /dev/sda* devices. Usually, kudzu detects as /dev/sda1 and automatically modifies /etc/fstab accordingly. I manually added the line without the 'kudzu' option to force the device to mount as /dev/sda4 when I ask to mount it. --- Omer My opinions, as expressed in this E-mail message, are mine alone.

Unfortunetly there has beenenough of that. Great work! Questions: (1) XkbOptions In the 4.2 section you state that to set the keyboard toggle you have to execute: setxkbmap -option grp:switch,grp:shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll il Whereas in the 4.3 section you state that you set the toggle in the XF86Config using: Option XkbOptions grp:switch,grp:shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll Aren't those the same (i.e. archive the same goal) and work the same both in 4.2 and 4.3? The options are the same. The only syntax change from XFree 4.2 to XFree 4.3 is that you should now use us,il instead of il, because il no longer includes the American layout implicitly. (4) Section 2, the paragraph starting with All the above-mentioned menu options , elaboration would be nice. I still have difficulty understanding the difference between groups and layouts.

Re: mozilla firebird.
Hi Tzahi, 1. Why not use CTRL+T for a new tab? 2. A look at the WebCT source code reveals that they use 'windows-1255' encoding. Make sure that encoding is well defined (font etc.).
