Fw: from postgres list - [GENERAL] Major Problem with locale
Hi All I have problem with postgres + regex in rh7.3 does any body have experience with such problem ? maybe its related to redhat locale or regex and not postgres ? - Original Message - From: Tom Lane [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Ben-Nes Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: postgres [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 30, 2002 8:44 PM Subject: Re: [GENERAL] Major Problem with locale Ben-Nes Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: what was diffrent then ver 7.1.3 was that initdb (7.2.2) didnt answered me with the message that locale reduce speed. 7.2's initdb is a bit broken in this respect --- you won't see that message unless you use -d (in which case you'll have to dig through about 4meg worth of debug chatter :-().

VMware and competing products
I work in an environment, in which I edit and pre-process various source code files under Linux, and compile them using several SDKs, which work with Microsoft Visual Studio. Each SDK expects to be the only one installed in a PC, because those SDKs were not designed to coexist in peace. In order to reduce the number of physical PCs required, I'd like to use software, which implements several virtual PCs in the same physical PC. In other words: use software like VMware. Before investing money and time buying and deploying VMware, I'd like to know if this is the best alternative existing today, are there other alternatives, do people have good experience with the current version (VMware Workstation 3.2, according to http://www.vmware.com/)? --- Omer I am Marccabal of the Igluborg.

If you are adventerous, you can try plex86. It's far from 1.0, but sometimes works. I haven't tried it, but I am on the ML, watching the progress (which slowed down considerably, since Mandrake fired one of the developers, which worked for them full-time on plex86). BTW, it's closely related to bochs (that others mentioned) - they try to share code of relevant things (things that are emulated, rather than virtualized). BTW, it's freeware.

Options (Re: VMware and competing products)
Thanks to Marc de'Terrible, Shimon Panfil, Martin Polley, Yedidyah Bar-David and Aviram Jenik for their answers to my previous E-mail message. According to a brief Web surfing session, the options are: Bochs - a Free emulator - not suitable for my needs, because it is emulator and not virtualizer (i.e. very slow). plex86 - a Free virtualizer - suitable for people, who want to develop it rather than use it as a reliable tool for their own work. For me to use it, would be like using a 2.5.* kernel for my regular development work. VMware - Workstation 3.2 costs $299 per license, and 30-day free evaluation is available. Some people recommend it. Can use Linux based host. VirtualPC (http://www.connectix.com) - Virtual PC5 for Windows costs $229, There is no information about a version running under Linux host, but I sent them an E-mail message asking about this. At the risk of being off-topic, is there anyone who has used VirtualPC and can tell about his/her experience with it? And, are there any other options, which I overlooked? --- Omer There is no IGLU Cabal. However, instructions how to virtualize one can be found in Douglas Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to Galaxy.

If I understand correctly, you're interested in long, non-interactive, compilations, not in interactive development (which you say you're doing on a Linux machine anyway). In this case, why do you need at all to concurrently run several copies of Windows? If you're *sure* you can't install the two SDKs at the same time, why not write a script that will copy files around to switch the SDKs? Perhaps (if it's not too slow) even install/uninstall them every time automatically. If that can't work, and compilations are to be long enough (or you don't care about turnaround time), you can keep two Windows partitions and reboot to switch compilers. -- Nadav Har'El| Tuesday, Oct 1 2002, 25 Tishri 5763 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |Take my advice, I don't use it anyway. http://nadav.harel.org.il | = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If I understand correctly, you're interested in long, non-interactive, compilations, not in interactivedevelopment (which you say you're doing on a Linux machine anyway). Actually, my situation is: 1. The compilations are short (few minutes long for the entire project). 2. The SDKs contain also emulators, which I sometimes use to test the compiled software. In this case, why do you need at all to concurrently run several copies of Windows? If you're *sure* you can't install the two SDKs at the same time, why not write a script that will copy files around to switch the SDKs? The SDKs use separate file namespaces. The conflicts are in the Registry and environment variables. Perhaps (if it's not too slow) even install/uninstall them every time automatically. If that can't work, and compilations are to be long enough (or you don't care about turnaround time), you can keep two Windowspartitions and reboot to switch compilers. I don't care about the time it takes to switch from one SDK to another SDK, but the installation/uninstallation processes are not automated. The suggestion to dedicate a Windows partition to each SDK may work, if it is possible to hide all unwanted partitions when rebooting the machine to use a certain SDK. We'd have to partition the machine to have the maximum allowed number of partitions, to have room for future SDKs, but this can be done in the era of 80GB hard disks. I like the idea of using VMware (or a similar product) due to other reasons, but it will be nice to save money if we can get by without using VMware. --- Omer WARNING TO SPAMMERS: at http://www.zak.co.il/spamwarning.html = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
