Hi,
after some time I finally got around to try again to change my X settings, so
that I can have a resolution of 1024x768 on my thinkpad.
I want to make a presentation with Staroffice. But the beamer only allows a
1024x768 resolution.
This is what I tried so far:
-Alt+Ctrl+-/+ only changes
Hi,
I think this may be a simple command, but I havent found it so far. I want to
backup the vmware files on cdr so I need to cut them into pieces that I can
burn on cd and later put those together into the original files again.
What is the program/command to cut files and put them together?
Hi,
I seem to get into the habit of answering my questions myself, so I have to
just stop posting them :)
One last question nevertheless: is this the right way to split files that are
larger than a cdr and to put them together again? (the cat command is listed
as text-utility in my book)

Hi Y'all
Bit of a poser for you.
I'm installing and re-installing some stuff on my system.
Limewire requires the JRE 1.3.1, whereas Arachnophilia requires 1.4.
What I want to know is:
1. Can Limewire be installed with JRE 1.4?

Hi,
Just in case there is somebody out there who is also not smart enough to
understand that cron doesn't get the environment variables from the bash:
one must set it manually.
So the crontab now works and looks like this:

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

I tried to set up a cronjob without using /etc/cron.d and the like. But I

What puzzles me is why your straight copy of the original boot disc
fails to initalise on boot up as the original does.It seems a bit strange
if the original boots up it cannot be a bios setting getting in the way, so
it has to be something about the copy that is different. I copied

Hi John,
thank you for your patience. The commands you supplied work - they copy the
_content_ of a cdrom to an iso which is then burned. But they do not make a
1:1 copy, the cd that is created with your commands is not bootable but the
original cd was. I may have missed a command line option

Thank you for the tip, now I can record web-radio.
Is there a way to listen to the music while writing to a file?
You know maybe a good tool to work with the sound files (cutting off silent
