[SLUG] C++ fstream class
hello, a somewhat technical question - i am trying to associate a file descriptor with a file pointer using the C++ fstream class. this function is an extension to the C++ library. in the documentation that i downloaded from the WEB (http://nf.apac.edu.au/facilities/sc/compaq_mirror3/progtool/cplus/basic_fstream_3c__std.htm) it shows a constructor, explicit basic_fstream(fd). i take this to mean that it can be done. however, it does not provide an example on how to invoke the method. basically, what i am trying to do is fdopen(), a Linux system call, but using C++. please do not assume that my knowledge of C++ is extensive. this is by no means the case. any feedback on how to do this or a pointer to further reference material will be appreciated. many thanks, Lucas The information contained in this e-mail message and any accompanying files is or may be confidential.If you are not the intended recipient, any use, dissemination, reliance,forwarding, printing or copying of this e-mail or any attached files is unauthorised.This e-mail is subject to copyright.

[SLUG] Why is K3b so slow to launch, and why do I need SCSI emulation?
Why is K3b so slow to launch in Mandrake 9.2? I have two CD drives, a CD-RW and a CD-R. When I launch K3b it takes an age to launch while it tells me it is scanning drives. When it eventually fires up I get a message box telling me that: No support for ATAPI with cdrdao You will not be able to use all your reading devices as copy sources since there is at least one not configured to use SCSI emulation and your system does not support ATAPI with cdrdao. Solution: The best and recommended solution is to enable ide-scsi (SCSI emulation) for all writer devices. This way you won't have any problems. How do I enable scsi emulation and why do I need it? Neither of my drives are scsi drives! Seems odd to me, and I am a bit confused by this... Here is my current fstab.

Re: [SLUG] Damaged Partition Recovery
Hi, I accidentally deleted my partitions once (years ago) and managed to get it back without damage by creating them again with exactly the same sizes as they were before. YMMV, but if you have the exact sizes etc of what they were before you might be able to just re-create the partition table and mount like nothing happened. I guess because the partition information is fixed size and doesnt overwrite anything of importance.. Good luck Cheers, Matt.

Re: [SLUG] Damaged Partition Recovery
This isn't part of linux question but I don't know where to ask hopefully you want to answer my question. I have a box that accidentally I have damaged the partition. Is there any slugger know about recover the old partition since I haven't create anything since then. I'm assuming you mean that you've zonged the partition table accidentally. Don't panic. You can get everything back; you basically go into the fdisk program and set one partition from block 1 to the end. You then save that partition table and exit fdisk. You then exit and mount that partition. Then take careful note of the actual size of the partition as reported by fsck. Then go back into fdisk and set the partition size to what it should actually be and make a new partition just above that that stretches out to the end of the disk. Save that partition table and exit fdisk and remount the second one. Repeat this process until you've got all your partitions back. Figure out which partition is which; find out which is /, which is /var, which is swap etc because you'll have to re-set that up. If you can find the old /etc/fstab that should give you the mapping of partitions onto Linux filesystems although probably won't help with the sizes of the partitions themselves. By the time you've finished you will know a hell of a lot about fdisk, fsck and bytes, kilobytes and megabytes. For a more thorough writeup of the procedure visit http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/recovering.html This procedure works; I've done it myself took me the best part of a day but boy did I feel like a god when it got fixed. I also had cool looking pages of scribbled notepaper full of calculations with numbers like 479199232 and stuff. One thing I did which proved very helpful was write down how many bytes an fdisk cylinder gave me. In my situation the partition table had been zonged by a parallel install of a later version of Redhat on a different disk and a misunderstanding by the installer caused the install program to write to the partition table of both disks.

[SLUG] Red Hat world tour coming to Sydney March 22
www.redhat.com.au for the skinny, but here's the short of it: Youve heard it said before: Open source is changing the world. On March 15, Red Hat will begin a two-week tour around the globeseven cities, six countries, four continents. To see just how this change is happening, and most importantly, meet the people making it happen. The open source community has changed, too. Today it is a worldwide assembly of advocates, developers, individual users, corporate administrators, chief technology officers. At each event you will hear from organizations deploying Linux, speak with Red Hat partners building open source solutions for the real world, and meet users just like yourself. We will also talk about the role we play in the community and how you can get involved. Then you can tell us what you think. Mike (who contracts for Red Hat in Melbourne where we don't yet have an office, and don't get to feel the World Tour love).
