Haha crap. I think this is what happened. I haven’t bothered downloading src.tar.gz in awhile bc of syspatch, but since this is a PowerPC machine, i wanted to be ready for the first errata. This is what I get for doing things from memory instead of reading the FAQ. Right. Let’s pretend

HDD fail signal

On various SATA/SAS backplanes, notably the Icy Box/Raidsonic IB555SK, there is a 'HDD fail signal IN' connector and a note that this can be provided by the controller, to make the failure LED flash. I can't find any controller that supports this, and presume it's directly supported by the

pppd and DNS

Dear Sirs! How it is supposed that I get the DNS servers from a PPP connection? Should I guess the servers and put them manually in resolv.conf? Something like dhclient ppp0 does not work. I think this is an old thema: http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/pppd-usepeerdns-td261633.html

Hello, I need to share a short secret (say, 32 bytes long) between a process - the father - and its children. The father process generates a random secret at launch. Then it launches multiple children, and children also have children. Both fork and execve are used. The whole tree uses the

Christoph, The first thing I see when looking at your report, is that your USB devices were plugged in via USB3 (XHCI). Please recompile your kernel with XHCI_DEBUG, and share the debug output here (and with mpi@) when you have it, when the error happened next time. Ok? Tinker > Hello ! > >
