 | I'm taking an Operating Systems class in which I have to write this monster of a C++ program and it's giving me a bit of trouble. It would be amazing if someone would be able to help me out a bit. The only problem is the directions for the programming …  |
| | Unfortunately, this isn't a current feature of TechTalk. However, it isn't hard to accomplish if this is a feature you'd like to see. The current "work-around" is to go to "Advanced Search" (located below the search textbox in the upper right of every page). Use the dropdown menu for "Search … |
| | Sorry, don't know about this one. |

| | I'm a big fan of Seti@home ( http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ ) and was wondering if I created a Seti TechTalk group, if anyone would be willing to join it. ;) For those who aren't aware, Seti uses our unused CPU time to investigate satellite reads in search for extraterrestrial intelligence. ;) It's …  |
| | Re: VMware help Did you try continuing with the setup (e.g. hitting ENTER and letting it compile the module)? RedHat 8 isn't officially supported by VMWare (although Redhat 7.x is). However, I'm running VMWare on Redhat 8 with no problems. I had to compile the module myself, however. I couldn't use any of … |
| | Re: question - What information about each employee is needed in order to compute the salary? - How are different types of employees paid differently? - How would you normally compute salary with time and a half (don't think in terms of programming)? - How is the "paycode" used to determine how … |
 | Well ..... hmm .... I've been able to execute rpms and I've been able to execute bins..... which one is it? I've come across executables with the .bin extension which have been distributed without executable permissions. Make sure that you're the owner of the file and that read/write/execute permissions are … |
| | I'm a little confused. What says that a port on your firewall is closed? A program? The main purpose of a firewall is to close ports so that hackers and others cannot get through them and invade your pc. So, basically, if you have Zone Alarm Pro installed, it's doing … |
| | How about now? I changed some more stuff around. |
| | That's incredibly weird. I never saw this before. No one else has reported complaints either. Are you using AOL ?? |
| | I'm not a fan of Partition Magic anyways. ;-) The setup doesn't come with a built in partitioning utility (like Win2k/XP do?) Will good ol' fdisk work in your case? Or if you have a WD drive the Western Digital Partitioning Utility? These are the only programs I've ever used. … |
| | Due to all the problems that we've been experiencing here at TechTalk, our web host has moved us to a new server. Until the DNS entry propagates, you will have to use our IP address to connect to TechTalk. This ensures that all database changes made between now and until … |

| | We've got some more changes at TechTalk. We now have a links section (just click the link at the top navigation bar). It's the same one we used to have ... but Bob convinced me to re-add it ;) Maybe its second life will be more promising than its first … |
| | Just like it was set up awhile back, only members of the News Posters usergroup are allowed to display their posts as news on the TechTalk homepage. The main reason for doing this is to block out spammers from wanting to make their questions, etc attract more readers by posting … |

| | We've got some new features at TechTalk. I set up Printable Topics once again, so everything looks all nice 'n' neat if you wanna print out a thread. Also, and I'm sure you'll notice, we have a new Tell A Friend box where you can send links to threads via … |
| | Re: need programmers Please don't spam (post the same thing in multiple forums). I'm going to lock this thread. If anyone is curious, Thamior is referring to this post: [thread]293[/thread] |

| | As many of us know (especially those like me who use StyleXP) the well known XP themes site has been down for the last few weeks. As of within the past hour, it's been back up! I'm just about to go head over to it and check it out. Let's … |
| | Hey there everyone! Avatars and signatures are now (once again) allowed in the forums. Avatars have been disabled for awhile and signatures for about a day and a half. Please keep them small though - animations are discouraged. Thanks! |
| | Hello everyone and welcome to TechTalk! There have been quite a few problems the last day or two, that I'm sure most of you have noticed. Firstly, our server was down for a lil bit due to network outages. Secondly, I haven't been feeling too good lately and I actually … |
| | Hey everyone, I was just wondering if anyone's heard of a dual cable modem / tv tuner card? Has anyone heard of these, do they exist, or know where to find one? The way I figure, tv tuner cards just have a lil input for a tv cable line, so … |
| | Re: Modems I'm not exactly sure if I can remember back into the days of good ol' Win95 but I'll give it my best shot. My first guess would be to check out the device manager and see if it's listed there, even as an unknown device or with uninstalled drivers. If … |

| | Sorry about that everyone! TechTalk was down for about an hour today (about 7:45pm - 8:50pm). It turns out mySQL failed on the server!! In any case, we're all back up now. |
| | Hi - I have an hp LaserJet 2200d connected to a RedHat Linux 8 machine, set up via CUPS. The printer is being shared over the network. Duplex printing is turned on (it's a feature I use quite often). I'm using the driver "HP LaserJet 2200, Foomatic + gimp-print(en)" Everything … |
| | I use VMWare 3.2 on a RedHat Linux 8 host. I compiled the module locally, as opposed to using one of the pre-configured modules (as I don't believe official support for RedHat 8 has been released yet). In any case, I use a Windows 2000 guest OS. However, regardless of … |
| | My Linux PC has always been set up to use my WinXP machine, 192.168.0.1 as an Internet gateway, with the static IP 192.168.0.2 I just got a Linksys "blue" router, and I want to change this info. I'd like to use DHCP to use the router as the gateway, 192.168.1.1 … |
| | I've never had any experience with Debian, and therefore don't know how much help I can be to you. Are you sure that "boot cd" is a valid command? When I install RedHat, for example, I just set the BIOS up to run from the cd, as the disks are … |
| | Not sure about your laptop, but with mine it is ok. Just as long as you use that lil application to "safely remove hardware". I have a PCMCIA cd-rom and it let me plug it in and take it out ... it even made a bleeping noise like when USB … |
| | Re: Linux with DSL ? I'm sure that where there's a will, there's a way to connect a DSL line to Linux. Unfortunately, I've connected my Linux box to a dial-up modem, a cable modem, and a home network, but never DSL. So I'm not exactly sure of how it's done. I use RedHat linux … |

| | Sure! I'd be interested! Maybe you can upload it here as an attached file? |
| | Re: Novell I don't want to agree with Jimmy, but I do to an extent. Novell seems (from my point of view, anyway) that it used to be a lot more popular than it is today. I don't hear very much about it anymore. Big corporations use it, but for the most … |
| | Is that sorta like that thingie you use at work? How the different majors can have homepages under Hofstra U? |
| | Very cool Jimmy ... know where you're gonna work? Something in the computer field? |
| | Hey peeps! Me and Dan are doing a group project on "Corporate Training" for a multimedia class we're in. Dan didn't come to class today :P when the rest of the group here assigned out individual topics to research. My topic is "latest technologies" Can anyone help out? What are … |
| | Whew! My first day on a road to recovery. Even with pain killers, it's my first day that I am actually able to sorta concentrate!! Golly gee whiz am I happy! hehe Definitely a day well-deserving of being marked in the calendar!! |
| | I just reformatted my computer (Win XP Pro). Everything runs smoothly except Outlook XP or Outlook Express. Everytime I open either one, it takes a solid two minutes for the splash screen to go away for the rest of the proggie to open. Every other program works perfectly fine (e.g. … |
| | Doing work now ... but hopefully tomorrow I'll get around to fixing the Jumpbox so it actually works (for a change) on all the pages! |
| | Ok peeps! The polls have been fixed! For the last few days I didn't realize that no one could vote on any of the polls. I looked over the code and forgot to close my </form> tag. Oopsies! |
| | I pulled an all-nighter adding lotsa new features to the forums. (OK, so I just couldn't sleep b/c of really bad headaches, but ... well ... at least I got something accomplished). There's a new logo up top. There's Alice, an AI bot who loves to chat in the Coffee … |
| | Hey... I was just doing some browsing and I found this site: [url]http://www.iwantitcheap.com/[/url] Is this an example of Amazon web services?? |
| | Boo hoo I don't think anyone wants to use my new links section! |
| | You uninstalled via the Add/Remove Programs dialog box, right? |
| | TechTalkGal here (yes, the forum admin) ... as if the lil text to the left saying "Admin" under my name didn't give it away. As for where I've been, friggin' busy with school! I show up though, honest I do ... yes, yes ... *I keep telling myself that* |
| | I was just looking over some of the sample questions for the Dreamweaver certification from http://www.macromedia.com/support/training/certified_professional_program/dw_dev_questions.pdf It looks rather dumb. |
