RE: Fedora 11 top sata II speeds

2009-06-23 Thread Joseph L. Casale
I'm trying to know which is my SD's top speed (theoretically, 3 Gbps). The 3 Gbps you speak of is the bandwidth of the controllers port, if your SATA drive is a SATA II variant, its port bandwidth is 300MB/s but you typically only achieve 1/4 of that for the device itself. This is how the use

This is bullshit. Intel integrated graphics (except the GMA 500) just work. Non-HD Radeons just work too. Huh... I have plenty Intel only systems, G35 and G45 systems and after a looong hopeful wait for them to just work I am considering switching distro's. Problem is I like RH based distros and

RE: Graphics card recommendation?

2009-06-24 Thread Joseph L. Casale
Actually, your post is bullshit. Have you ever tried playing HD video on an Intel chipset? It just works if your definition of works is looks like glitchy shit. Works for me. I could believe it would struggle on the older processor/memory setups where they probably don't have enough bandwidth

F11 Live CD Capabilities Info

2009-07-02 Thread Joseph L. Casale
I have some remote work over a painfully slow link if using graphics. To accomplish what I need to do, a dd of a file that resides on a CIFS share onto a USB key of a server, I was thinking of booting the machine with an F11 Live CD so I could do this all in one hit. So, does the live cd have

2009-07-02 Thread Joseph L. Casale
So don't do a graphical remote login. A simple ssh login will give you a bash terminal and you can type whatever you need into that. So I take it the live cd has an ssh server and CIFS support? You can boot into runlevel 3 by putting a 3 at the end of the appropriate line in grub.conf or by

Booting the server with the live CD? Yeah, I need to update the image on the servers USB key that it boots from. The only way to do it is to physically remove the USB key and put in my wkst so I can write to it which requires me to be onsite or boot the server via some live cd so I can get

RE: F11 Live CD Capabilities Info

2009-07-05 Thread Joseph L. Casale
From the sounds of things, you would probably be better off making a custom key with sshd running at boot, password logins turned off, and your public key listed as an authorized key. I have not used it, but the software to make your own live cd is available in the repositories. Maybe someone

The live spins already do everything installs, as they copy over the file system rather than doing package based installation. Maybe that is a solution the original poster could use. Really, a 700mb CD has everything installed in it, so when it copies the fs over, everything is installed? I

it just causes all sorts of bottlenecks as applications try to use something that's just not going to work. This is a myth and it needs to die. I've programmed a few IPv6 capable apps and there is no performance hit from having IPv6 functionality on non-IPv6 capable networks. No its not.
