Okay, guys -- speaking as a long-term blood donor (I'm not quite at my
10-gallon pin), I certainly admire the sentiment involved, here. However,
it would appear that a) the Red Cross is currently busy as hell trying to
keep up with supply -- but not demand, and b) the demand, sadly, probably
will
Just heard on the radio: they're already innundated. They asked that any
blood donations be held off until Thursday; call 1-800-give-blood then for
more info.

Well, I can't vouch for this being the "graceful" way, but, since no one's
replied:
killall artsd
nohup artsd&
Would probably, respectively, stop and start artsd just fine...

Well, if you're talking about what I think you're talking about, it's not
quite that simple: you also need an ethernet switch that can support what
Cisco refers to as "trunking". If you can trunk 'em together, then you
can get their aggregate throughput -- it's quite nice (I even did this on

For myriad reasons too complex to go into now, I have installed 7.1.93 on
my work system. Well... this may have been a bad move. It boots fine,
and gets me right up to the login prompt, whereupon I'm informed that no,
I don't have the credentials to log in. I've played around with my
/etc/pam.d
Well, I think I can answer your questions:
1) Instead of inetd, why not just leave it up? A portscan'll launch it,
anyway, so you'd best trust the security, no?
2) IMHO, IMAP's folder "paradigm" is dumb: you can only create folders
*inside* your inbox. Give that a try, and see what happen

Actually, this, above almost all else, is why I love multi-processor
motherboards. Say you have a dual-500 Celeron motherboard; most people
would readily grant that a)
I've noticed that dual-Athlon motherboards have hit the market (well,
okay, at least one of 'em, from Tyan), and was wondering if anyone has had
any experience with them under Linux? Couple questions:
- Does Linux fully support it? I saw reports that 2.4.6-ac-something did,
but don't know if

Which machine? I had oodles of problems (as did others) with RH 7.0
compiling 2.2 well, *any* kernel. Finally had to "downgrade" my gcc,
as well as some include files. OTOH, if this isn't an RH 7.0 box, what is

I've got one for you RPM fans: I wanna wipe my (beta) KDE slate clean

Odd... I must be doing something right (wrong?) -- I've *never* had to
put DNS servers in for my PPP connections: not the ones I did by hand with
chat scripts, nor the ones done by kppp (which is now my dialup tool of
choice)
