 Sometime, when i installed mysql ( don't know why exatcly ) the configure

 correct? ) and set one with

 ok, so far so good.
 
 Every time when some apt script touches the database, it tries it without a
 password and exits.
 
 How can i remove this nasty password or
 How can i tell the scripts to use my password

You might want to try a ~/.my.cnf file with the following entries:

[client]
user=root
password=your MySQL password here

When you launch any MySQL utility, this file will be referenced for
login information.

Video4Linux: RadioTrack /dev Device?

[Clint Dimick]

I'm trying to get my AIMS RadioTrack card working and have recompiled my
kernel to include support for this device; however, some programs have
made reference to a /dev/radio device file.

After searching through the /usr/include/linux/videodev.h include file,
I'm under the assumption I need to do a mknod radio c 81 9 or
mknod radio c 81 13 (for the second RTRACK_2 device).  Is this correct?
So far, I'm not having much luck in getting this device to respond and
wondered if anyone else on this list has had experience here.  Hopefully
I'm just missing something obvious!

Thanks in advance,
