If you're willing to relax the request for an "X server",
and merely request that you can view on Windows graphical
applications that are running on a remote Linux machine,
VNC is an excellent solution.
I know what VNC is. I was actually looking for a "real" X

It seems somewhat short, but possible... can you paste the full output
from /proc/meminfo?

I have put together a small package of X (from cygwin) and putty that
should allow you to use a minimal X server from any win32 computer.
1. Why do you think this is [OT] ?
2. Its still big - 6.60 MB. What about "Run X from a floppy" ?
Do we have any smaller package for X server ?

Hi Muli,
Thanks for your reply.
In case I dont use CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G, is 3.3GB reported seems to be OK ?

Hi all,
Given an 8 GB RAM, what is the maximum of the memory I should expect
reported from /proc/meminfo ?
I'm using 2.4.26 Vanilla
Right now I can see ~3.3GB when cat-ing /proc/meminfo on that specific machine.
Thanks in advance,
Kobi.

Hello,
I have an IDE disk in an external USB enclosure, connected to a PC. I
wish to spin it down at times, and also to have it spin down
automatically after some period of inactivity.

There is a significant difference, since this connects you to a
"normal" Ethernet cable in which you have a 1 to many relationship
(using TCP/IP) with other computers instead of a dedicated 1 to 1
relationship with a dedicated computer for which there doesn't seem to
be a TCP/IP connection ("n

I see following ways:
1. cat /dev/zero > /dev/hdc
It will remap all bad blocks (if any) onto reserved blocks.
I would not know about the remaps though
