If you leave the display on the load graph, you actually increase your CPU load. For some reason, this is particularly CPU-heavy. However, clicking on the "Processes" tab will continue to gather the data for graphing in the background, so your history is preserved when you click back on the "Resources" tab. To verify this for yourself, leave it on "Processes" for a minute, then click back to "Resources" and you'll see the change. Anyway, not a big deal on modern hardware, but it could be the difference between something running smoothly and choppily on older machines, or on stressed modern machines. - -- Bob Igo StormLogic -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIsDDC65uO8u5kvxoRAkXiAKCGQbM28pFKX1RhSBQFg4PND27lsACeIQpO ApDnRjgvfIWPm8UW1uZd7ko= =tTII -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Bob Igo 2008-08-23T15:46:10 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.org.user-groups.linux.cplug.general/11544 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Howdy, As you may recall, we'll be hosting the Central PA Open Source Conference (CPOSC) on October 19th.

You can see more details about the conference here: http://www.cposc.org/ We're opening up registration to CPLUG members early to make sure any of you who want to go can -- it's at a smaller venue than our previous conference, so there's less seats.

Fuzzie Chuck Vohs 2008-08-20T02:14:53 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.org.user-groups.linux.cplug.general/11530 I'm able to use yum; but I still get the "579 packages excluded due to repository priority protections" When I first started with yum, I recall downloading public keys. I never could find where they are stored. I really don't think any of them were actually installed on the machine. If I tried to test for them, my cursor just blinked and returned. I got no feedback at all. I'm wondering if this key business is not at the root of my yum problems. - fleet - Fleet Teachout 2008-08-17T00:21:34 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.org.user-groups.linux.cplug.general/11528 I decided to get rid of my laptop if anyone is interested in it. I thought of the cplug list because I use it for work thus it's geared up for work related linux activities. I'll take the best offer for it as long as two requirements are met. 1, the laptop leaves the house. 2, no new electronics come in. :) Here are the specs: --------------------------------------------------- Acer Aspire 5040 w/ 80GB HD, 512MB RAM 15.4" WXGA (1280x800) Wide Screen Dual booted w/ Gentoo/KDE and Windows AMD Turioun 64 1.8Ghz processor Atheros AR5005 802.11abg Integrated Wireless Realtek RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet ATI Radeon Xpress Video card Link: http://www.acer.co.th/product/travelmate/Aspire5040/index.htm The casing on the back of the screen has cracks in the plastic from opening and closing the lid and the battery life is only enough to get you from one outlet to another if you run.

But! One family member, running XP, I think (some version of windoze anyhow) is hogging bandwidth here. "Downloading a movie" I'm told. It's at the point where it's starting to seriously interfere with other LAN traffic, like crashing my music, which only wants 56k of my 768k of available download bandwidth. What options are there to limit the usage on that particular machine? Something I can configure in the firewall/router? Something else? The other option being that I can pull the plug, but that's gonna trigger the kind of confrontation that I'd rather avoid if at all possible... Help? Roy J.

I'm suspending a PDA with "apm --suspend" and it doesn't even last 48 hours on a full battery. A possible complication is that I often set a wakeup time, so something needs to keep checking the current time vs. the alarm time to know if it's supposed to wake the PDA.

Best, Josh Joshua Miller 2008-08-11T14:21:35 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.org.user-groups.linux.cplug.general/11512 After fighting a bit with CUPS, I finally got that working, and managed to do a test page and a PDF file. OpenOffice seems to be stuck pointing to some generic printer, where from what I can glean out of their docs I'm supposed to put some command line in there someplace to fix that? Seems I need to run the spadmin program in the openoffice directory... I also tried to use the "export to PDF" option figuring that I could fire up kpdf and print from that. It did generate the file from the document, it does display okay, and when I try to print it I see some activity on the status lights on the printer, but nothing else happens. Help? I don't do a whole lot with office-type apps, but do get the occasional *.doc file sent my way and the ability to print it would be nice. The printer in question is an LJ5MP, which sure does a nice job when the software side of things is working. Roy J.

It should look like: Save message to ~/mail/ and allow me to type in a file name (and create the file if it doesn't exist) (If I know it's saving to that directory, I don't need the message.) I found how to set a file for saved messages; but that doesn't do me any good. - fleet - Fleet Teachout 2008-08-08T22:19:43 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.org.user-groups.linux.cplug.general/11505 Trying mutt hooks. my_hdr reply-to: "fleet-aFh3xXUzLmNg9hUCZPvPmw< at >public.gmane.org" works as expected. folder-hook paxp set from="fleet-ny6wn4nW9lA< at >public.gmane.org" folder-hook paxp set my_hdr="fleet-ny6wn4nW9lA< at >public.gmane.org" This changes the from when composing from the paxp folder; but not the reply_to field.
