Thx for leading me in the right direction, I'll see if I can help update it to the current version.

upsd for Belkin F6C120-UNV?
All the ups ports seem to be only for APC UPSs, but I have a Belkin F6C120-UNV connected over usb (it is recognized as uhid0 when connected). Serial would be ok, but I don't see any ports that would work for that either. On Belkin.com there is ups daemon there for FreeBSD 2.2.8. which doesnt work. Has anyone with the same model gotten it working? Any help is appreciated, Miles ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
HP Printer not working?

I've heard about lpd and cups, but don't know which one to use or what the difference is. So can anyone guide a Windows user to an easy howto? I just set up my deskjet 5550 connected by USB today with CUPS. It worked perfectly in 5 minutes. All I needed to do was connect to the CUPS server and set up the printer on /dev/ulpt0 with the new deskjet driver (built in). It was so easy it was almost plug and play! Follow http://www.freebsddiary.org/cups.php and you will be fine. Dont forget to change PATH or it wont work.

Re: Supporting backup batteries over serial port?
1. Backup (PowerChute-like app, from Belkin?) -- don't know of any alternative in FreeBSD I have an F6C120-UNV UPS from Belkin, and on the website it has Linux Bulldog v3.01.12 at http://web.belkin.com/support/download/downloaddetails.asp?download=824lang=1 This works fine for me. Note - im connecting by network to the ups, not sure how well it manages the serial port.

Java and C++ share some common ground on syntax and the fact that they both support Object oriented programming. Aside from that, there are many differences. C++ is native code and executes faster than java which uses a virtual machine. C++ code is compiled into C code by the compiler and then assembly. Java is converted into byte code for a virtual machine. What? C++ code is converted to C? Which compiler are you using, and why the hell would a compiler do this? I would definitely recommend to start with assembly. It gives you a good understanding of the hardware, and every programming language you learn afterwards will be a piece of cake. Then get a good reference (some have already been mentioned) and start coding a real program right away, skip that boring hello world stuff. I learned seven programming languages in five months with this method. Daniela I believe origionally that C++ compilers converted C++ to C. I'm not sure about starting with assembly, it could be overwhelming. I started with Basic, and I learned all the other languages fine.
