Thanks for the response Daniel, but sadly it is exactly 30k. The machine has a readout on the display which gives a warning at 25k and stops functioning at 30k.

It could be incrementing a counter that is evaluated as a 16 bit signed integer (which overflows at 32767 + 1). Depending on the rest of the code, it could be as simple as changing it to a long integer. Daniel | --- | Daniel P.

where to buy presentations
moin moin, anyone want to cover one of the products that comes with GNU/Linux for Wednesday's west side meeting? We should regularly have short presentations on where you can get GNU/Linux products and/or reviews on GNU/Linux boxen you can buy. Examples would be the ASUS Eee, OLPC, Dell Mini, Red Seven, ASUS, Dell and Shuttle. We could also include the Nokia Internet Tablets, OpenMoko, Android and networking gear that runs GNU/Linux. Essentially, these presentations should be directed towards the general public about how they can use GNU/Linux and have commercial support. ciao, der.hans -- # http://www.LuftHans.com/http://www.LuftHans.com/Classes/ # The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and # write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn. -- Alvin Toffler --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss

Does switching from 1.5 Mbp to a faster fiber-optic connection require any system changes?
Does switching from my current Qwest DSL 1.5 Mbp service to a faster fiber-optic connection require any system changes? When I first got hooked up with Qwest DSL, I remember it was quite a hassle to get it to work. But once I got it sorted out, with a few relatively minor outages, it has been working fine for a couple years. Upon the recommendation by some PLUG folks, I got a used 2-Wire modem/router from RedSeven because I was told it would work better than what Qwest was providing at that time. Since Qwest has been promoting higher-speed, fiber-optic connections of up to 20 Mbps, I called to ask their customer service department if I would have to make any changes to my current setup if I signed up for this. Their answer was, No, everything will remain the same. So, I signed up for the 7 Mbps option for an extra $10/month. Today, I received a package containing a QuickConnect Installation CD that is described as being needed to optimize my modem. No doubt this CD has some M$ program and I am Since my system is Linux, I suspect this CD is probably useless to me. So, is there anything I will need to do via my Linux system to get everything to work correctly? And if so, what? --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss

Re: Does switching from 1.5 Mbp to a faster fiber-optic connection require any system changes?
Instead of Linux, try telling them you have a network setup, and need to make the settings changes on/through the router. (Assuming this is true) If they still aren't helpful, ask to speak to a knowledgeable tech, sometimes you can get past the script-readers to someone who knows what they're talking about.

Re: Does switching from 1.5 Mbp to a faster fiber-optic connection require any system changes?
No switching to a higher bandwidth DSL Qwest service will equate to nothing more than a QoS jockey batch running the settings to each level of service based on your support tags. I would, however, be sure that they did not charge you for the self install kit. Once you determine it was not part of additional expansion fees, the CD will make a fine coaster or when crunched up small and laminated into plastic, earrings that geeky women will happily buy at First Friday.

SEE FAQ: http://www.qwestchoice.com/faqs.html Excerpt: *What if I want to upgrade to the faster service later?* Choice OnLine is available in two different service packages, Classic and Select. At anytime these services can be changed from one to another. Change of service is immediate. To have this change made call Choice OnLine at (303) 383-9400 in Denver or (602) 266-1700 in Phoenix. Nothing more is required. Again check to verify that you have not been charged for that Self Install Package.
