You may have a loose connector somewhere. How did you clean the dust out? I trust by blowing it, and not vacuuming it. Either way, you *might've* loosened a connector. First standard answer: disconnect A/C power, ground yourself to discharge all static you may have built up, then unplug and …

I believe /etc/passwd is 'keyed' on the username, and I believe the system uses only the first instance it finds. So while you can have many users with the same name, only the first entry will be used. However, you *can* have several user names with the same numerical user …

[QUOTE=Bushido Hacks;617328]npviewer.bin has not been a problem despite its quirks. Generally when Firefox crashes or hangs up, there is another npviewr.bin task listed, but that is easily killable. Secondly, as I was using top, the browser was open, and this page had an advertisement that was using flash, so npviewer.bin …

One possibility is that (some) 2.4 kernels could be limited to 2GB file sizes. And/or some 2.4 filesystems could be limited to 2GB file sizes. Another could be that you have a process limit. Try 'ulimit -a' and see what the max file size is. If it's limited, 'ulimit -f …

This is a somewhat more generic answer to the original question. Linux can run in as little as 4MB of RAM; one example of this is the DD-WRT firmware running on certain Linksys routers (among others). Other uses of Linux can require 64GB RAM and 8-way Opteron system. One *can* …

Moving the script and noscript tags and content inside the body (where they belong), and changing onSubmit to onsubmit makes the file Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional (according to w3.org). Either way, the file works on Konqueror and Iceweasel on Debian/Linux.

One reason I've found for PK SSH to not work is file permissions. Make sure repository's .ssh directory is 'chmod 700' and the contents within it are 'chmod 600'. If there's any possibility that a private key could have been compromised, SSH will fail that method of authentication. N

Whatever you do, be sure you escape the result if you use it directly in a MySQL query. You don't want to be the victim of SQL injection.

Simply put, it is telling you that, on line 31: $row=mysql_fetch_array($result); $result is not valid. This is not guaranteed to work: if you pass $result to the 'next' page as a hidden value in the form, it might start working. But only if the database connection is maintained from one …

If you have a high-speed network connection, you should try Debian. I've been using it for years with no trouble. As long as you have relatively new hardware (not much more than five years old) and don't have hardware bits that are specially made for manufacturers like Dell, Gateway, etc., …

You should be able to configure the Linksys as a bridge (that is, it is not a router, gateway or firewall). If the OEM firmware doesn't allow this, then you might be able to install the [url=www.dd-wrt.com]DD-WRT[/url] firmware, depending on which version of the WRT54G you have.
