Alrighty, here's the script I wrote up... I did get a lot of the code in parts 1 and 2 from dougfractal on ubuntuforums.org, but part 3 was me using the ideas I got from cassianoleal on wordpress.com...

ALRIGHT... The script I have is to enable drm support in the kernel. What that is, I don't know, but it ISN'T Direct Rendering, and if it is, it isn't all of it. I finally figures out how to pass...

Alright! I found a fix for the locking assertion failure (although I don't fully understand what happened, I wasn't paying all that much attention...).

It turns out that libx11-6 has a conflict...

Alrighty, here's the problem:

I am installing linux on a sony VAIO that has a:01:00.0 WGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x (rev 64)
I have tried installing the...

Alright, I found a solution to the problem.

This is an issue caused by the (albeit COMPLETELY UNRELATED) "UPnP User Interface" That was an optional component to the windows networking services...

Okay... so now it would appear as though it only happens some of the time. Sometimes, my taskbar is fine, the hide button is there, all my icons are there, and the LAN goes away when I'm not using...

Oh, and by the way, workarounds are fine, if there's a program I can use that'll output battery power/charging percentage on the desktop, or what have you, I might be able to deal with that, too. I'm...

Hey all! Again, it has been a while.

Anyway... I just replaced the battery on my laptop, and I've been having issues with the volume control icon in the taskbar tray. Every time I start the...

Hey! Been a while, how's everyone doing? I'm fine, despite being unemployed and broke.

But hey, down to business. I cracked and started dual-booting because I couldn't play starcraft with my...

alright, well I might get a faster one, but I might not. I actually spent most of my money for a new hdd on a 6 ft sword. ^_^ I have a friend, though, but he might not sell his to me cheap.

Thanks...

Is it alright to upgrade the hdd speed in a notebook that's 2 years old? I need a new hdd, but I want it faster. Would this be likely to cause problems? Its original speed was 4200 rpm, I want more....

Well, that makes me feel fine. Getting a new hard drive sounds like a good thing for me, this means I can upgrade with a good excuse ^_^

Good thing I got that 500G external for christmas, cause I...

My hard drive just went the way of my last auto-engine today... overheating crash. Run to the Hills.

Has anyone ever had this problem before? My HDD has been hanging a lot lately, and today it...

*sigh* you're missing the point. sure, I could do it their way and use the software they give me (which I hear works too slowly on macro commands, which is what I'd be using almost exclusively), or I...

Okay, how would you direct those commands to the device? How do you catch commands from the device? If I can figure out what the keys send to the computer I can pretty much just use cin or something...

No, I'm getting one. And Nothing says "linux compatible" on the box. NOTHING. I'm asking how one would go about programming an interface for a peripheral device like this one. What libraries? Would I...

This is going to sound wierd at first, but I found a really cool usb controller. Let's see if I can find a link to it... here it is...

I'm personally really hoping for 3 things:
1) a PSP, what can I say, those things are pretty sweet now that they've (mostly) fixed the dead-pixel problem
2) a Mini-Mac, I want the one with the core...

Thanks again; that one was a little to simple for me to be so stuck on ^_^U

How do you know so much about iterators, anyways? You must need to use them all the time if you can so quickly come up...

Great, more iterator trouble.

First we have an iterator of any value. I want to make a second iterator that starts one higher than the first one. Look-see:

for( iterator_type one ; /*...*/)
{...

Wow, thanks! That allowed me to compile for the first time in a month. ^_^ I wouldn't have thought to make it a const_iterator instead of a regular iterator.

Thanks!

Alright, here's the code:
for ( map<string,int>::iterator word = mostUsed.begin() ;
word != mostUsed.end() ; word++ )


and the error by g++ - (using make)
error: conversion from...

The reason I'm using these formats is that they're a good place to start off. I'll eventually make this program able to handle many types of pictures, but I've got to start somewhere ^_^

Alright,...

Alright, I'm developing a program that is going to take in .pbm image files, manipulate them, and output them in .ppm (P3) format.

That's all fine and good; I've got that down.
However, I'm...

... Okay, first of all, I am not allowed to [EDIT] my previous post.
Secondly, I have the same results after-all. I did manage to fix it this time, without a total reinstall. I ended up re-running...

Alright, delayed response. I did a lot of digging, and found out that it was an incompatability issue from my old nvidia-driver and the new version of xorg-xserver. Simple solution - install new...

Well, I've tried, but the whole problem is X won't start at all. I could try modprobing nvidia and then trying to start X, although I think I already tried that... I'll give it a shot a minute. Be...

I think I tried that... let me boot into the other system a minute and find out... I'm so glad I left this old 64-bit system on another partition...

[EDIT] Okay, um... nothing? I typemodprobe...

that, unfortunately, I have been entirely unable to find a solution to.

(Note: once again I find that this could probably fit into several of the *nix forums, so I tried my best to find the one...

As usual, JP, you have insane amounts of varying random knowledge.
So this PVM separates out a process to be done simultaneously in several computers? This is sweet, but how hard is it to program...

I was wondering if anyone knows how to accomplish this, that is the simultaneous operation of several computers on a single task.

I'm curious, because I have several older desktop boxes, and I...

I dunno about that... do windoze systems come with compilers on them? If your school uses macs then you might be in business, but I don't think windoze comes with any c++ compilers.

And when I...

Alright, I managed to figure out that 1) my map files might have extra spaces, causing me to have some columns (lines) that have an empty index.
2) the backwards vector was all I needed, my board is...

Oh, crap. Yeah I ALWAYS mistype that header, and I guess I did forget the vector library, too. My bad.

I know some things are a bit strange... I will try the getline( cin , fileName ); bit, but...

Salem: The first one does crash before execution of the line function( fileName );. I tested by putting a cout before the function call. The second doesn't crash.

Alright, well let's see here... I...

Infarction: Well, there's not much necessary, but here's the code that gave the error.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#include <ifstream>

c++, Debian linux system, g++ compiler

Alright, I have a serious problem. I keep getting a segmentation fault everytime cin recieves a string with a period in it and stores it into a string. I...

Sorry for ressurrecting this thread, but Can you guys explain why Wolf's solution works? Like, explain what's going on?

Keep Hope Alive - Crystal Method

Lol, yeah that'll happen... I actually took this apart and found a guide online... sauce later... but there's a little junction thingy soldered on the board (that doesn't actually... do anything)...
