Actually it does have alot to do with closed laptop usage. By closing the laptop you are able to extend the battery life by a great deal, it's also easier to have a folded up laptop sitting in your car then one open and lit up, it's also much stealthier to walk around "war-walking" with the...

Too late for this year, but for next year look into their student program where USENIX pays your way. They select several college students a year to attend free of charge. See http://www.usenix.org/students/stipend.html. Brian

No, LISA is Large Installation Systems Administration. It's an annual conference held bye USENIX and SAGE. See http://www.usenix.org/events/lisa04/ for more info. Brian

Figured if anyone from here would be at the LISA conference this week it'd be from this forum, so, anyone at the LISA conference this week? Brian

Did you take a look at the quicktime broadcaster? It can send a stream to a shoutcast server to relay, or I should say, you can subscribe a shoutcast server to the rtsp stream it sends out. Brian

This is a very well known problem, and there is currently no work around, just have to restart X11. Brian

You need to install DBI first, then you can install DBD:mysql. Brian

Just create a applescript that calls the unix touch command :) Brian

Also are you inserting blank DVD-R discs, or DVD+R discs? I don't think Finder/iApps work with DVD+R discs, you have to use toast for those. Brian

Oh, forgot to add that I was using an Iomega Zip 650 CDRW drive with Toast 5.1.2 on 10.2.x without any problems. Brian

There is a free update to have Titanium 5 work natively in OS X, take a look around roxio's website for it. Brian

run the command using sudo :) Brian

It's possibly. You'll need an ADC to VGA adaptor, and a DVI to VGA adaptor. Brian

Another use of dual nics is for failover incase one switch you're connected to fails. Yet another use for dual nics is for backups. Many large providers have a dedicated backup network so that all network traffic while doing file backups on your network are over a seperate network so it doesn't...

Boot up the laptop using the hardware test cd that came with it. Have it do a system check. Most likely it will show errors in the 512M memory stick. iBooks tend to like brand name memory, and love to be flakey on non-brand name ones. Brian

The point of partitions is very big. If you want two versions of OS X on the same box, you want them on different partitions. If you use your drive as a file server on your local network, you want the directories that are shared to be on a seperate partition so that a user can't fill up the...

I tried the Centon in my iBook (it was all they had at the time, and I wanted instant gratification) and it caused it to crash about every 5 minutes. Replaced it with Kingston memory from BB that was $20 cheaper, and worked perfectly. Brian

Where have you been? nslookup has been deprecated for 3 years now :) Brian

Not really. There are alot of cheap solutions that work with PC's($100-200), but not with Macs. They are cheap because all the processing of data is done on the PC side, and it streams uncompressed audio to the device to play. The Roku boxes do all of the decompression in hardware so there is no...
