Howdy there, and thanks :) So far I have left ... A final project for my print journalism class An actual final for my print journalism class A final project for my Operating Systems class An actual final for my Operating Systems class A final for my chemistry class I'm …

I'm glad you were able to get it working finally. However, I'm sorry you had to resort to uninstalling and reinstalling Internet Explorer ... it's a large component of Windows and reinstalling it can sometimes screw a lot of underlying OS stuff up IMHO.

Run rpm -Uvh mplayer.rpm And then you should be able to run it by simply typing "mplayer" No?

what, exactly, does cdrdao do?

Mr Gates, were any of these suggestions helpful? I take it you got it working? A simple user input at the end of the program should offset it automatically exiting.

Have you looked at the Smart Monitors, they're 12" to 15", are touch sensitive, and are wireless (e.g. you can carry them around with you making your PC accessible from any room of your house).

That's the same ALICE bot that we used to have here at the forums months and months ago. No one liked her though :( You can still find some of her old posts floating around actually. Yeap, she used the AIML markup language, I remember that!

I'm sorry ... I originally meant to reply days ago but something came up in the middle of my post, and I closed down the window and forgot all about it. Days later I thought I posted already. I certainly don't think that all of the legal mumbo jumbo is …

Whoa! Thanks for catching that! It was a permissions problem that's all fixed now. Sorry about that.

This is untested, but something like this might work [code] string timeZone[3], state, zone timeZone[0] = "CST" timeZone[1] = "EST" timeZone[2] = "PST" if state="AL" then zone=timeZone[0] if state="NY" then zone=timeZone[1] if state="CA" then zone=timeZone[2] [/code]

What operating system are you using? In Windows XP, go to the Control Panel, then to Sound and Audio devices. Click the "Audio" tab .. there should be a drop down box for "Sound recording" which a listing of available devices. Choose your microphone here. I think the procedure is …

I'm not a fan of serif fonts ... maybe you could change to a sans-serif font such as Arial, Verdana, Helvetica?

Well, it depends what sort of game you want to make. C++ is, indeed, often used to make games. However, it requires a lot of expertise in programming. If you are not a programmer, try your hand at DarkBASIC first. [url]www.darkbasic.com[/url]

sorry, never dealt with photos via this phone, though i've been wanting to with verizon, you have to use the get it not service and buy a subscription

I think what it seems to me that he wants is to associate the moving object (the ball) with a keyboard or mouse control.

what about the norton and mcaffee popup stoppers? (i.e. in the norton internet security package?)

This error has to do with the XFree86 config file. I'm not sure about Mandrake, but in Windows it's at /etc/X11/XF86Config or /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 This file can be hand-edited or configured via a program such as Xconfigurator or xf86config (I think those are the names of the programs? if you have …

When you have int main() it means that the function main() is returning a value of type int (an integer). Right after your cout statement you have to add a return (0); statement.

A lot of the links just say "Under Construction". You've got a lot of really useful links but I'm not too fond of the layout. You may wish to see if you could get it a little more professional looking. Also, avoid frames - they're cheesy. JMHO, Dani

I'm going to lock this thread and move your other post to the Networking forum. Please don't double post. Thanks! - Dani

Is your modem connected via USB? Often, this is the cause of constantly losing a connection. If it is, go into the Windows Device Manager, then disable the power management settings for the USB device (which allows the computer to turn off the device when not in use to save …

I used to have a problem with my LCD where after it was on for awhile, the pixels would start flickering bright and grainy. It turned out to be related to the A/B switch that I was using to hook the monitor up to two PCs.

Smiley's not being selectable ... there was already a post about this somewhere else. I went and did a search for it and copied/pasted my reply: [quote="cscgal"]Well, I was playing around with it a bit, and I noticed that if you use it in combination with BBCode such as quote, …

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.

It works for me :)

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 …

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 …

- 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 …

BTW, root, thank you very much for your great comments about TechTalk! :D

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 …

InstallShield?

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 …

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]

happy birthday ryan :)

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!
