Re: Boot usb live image, even if bios doesn't support it?

Boot usb live image, even if bios doesn't support it?

Hi, I have a quite old laptop (2003) with a crappy bios, which doesn't allow booting from USB and the laptop's dvd drive is broken. Is there any way to write some bootloader-code on the HDD, which then loads the live-cd from USB? Thank you in advance, Clemens -- users mailing list

Re: OpenOffice crashes compiz on F 14

A stacktrace would probably give more indication whats going on. - Clemens 2010/12/21 Kirk Lowery empirical.human...@gmail.com: The subject line pretty well summarizes it. I've got a vanilla Fedora 14 box, with the default theme and compiz enabled. Compiz works fine until I try to do

Re: End of life for FC12?

Hi, Yes, I'm getting WONTFIX on the problem I reported in old versions and updated to 12, I will report it again against 14 so it can be ignored for another year. I'm told Ubuntu and SuSE have working resume after suspend, so I may just convert all my laptops to something which has a clue.

Re: Proprietary or open source NVidia drivers?

I use the nouveau driver, because all nvidia hardware I still own is classified as legacy hardware by nvidia. 2D acceleration is quite bad for = GeForceFX using the proprietary drivers, whereas Nouveau supports excellent EXA acceleration. - Clemens -- users mailing list

Howto script sudo?

Hello, Is it possible to pass sudo the root-password in some way (I would prefer plaintext)? The reason is I use an umts-connection utility which has to run as root, and I don't want to have my parents type a root-password every time they connect to our ISP. For now I simply didn't set a

Re: Grub-Menu takes ~30s to appear :/
