Generally it is not a very good idea to resize the partition especially if you have not used LVM.
what will happen is that if you delete the partition (which if not the last partition on the HD) hen u will find missing harddisk space!
made sense? no? if your prsent partition is of say 2GB and u resize it to 1 GB then there is a chance the remaining 1GB will become unusable!

Hi Rishi,
Can you help us out with finding a cheap way of buying Dreamweaver? If we
manage to hire someone, we will use Gimp (instead of Photoshop) but
Dreamweaver I think we will require.
Thanks,
Sangeeta
Hi guys,
i guess you all must have heard about Nokia 770 its a Linux based Internet
tablet that can use bluetooth Wi-FI to connect to the net n has a host of
other feature. And its dedicated for Internet i.e. no phone. For developers
interested in it, it uses a development platform called
maemo(www.maemo.org<http://www.maemo.org>).
That is basically GTK+ only but with some modifications to make it optimum
for the mobile device. SO most of your GTK+ code should work wtht
significant changes. CHeck out the maemo site it has a cool developer
tutorial.
But one thing struck me about the nokia main site for the device(
www.nokia.com/770 <http://www.nokia.com/770>) it does not even mention the
term Linux or Open source. Dont know why that is??
Regards,
Puneet
I'm using Fedora Core 1.
I would like to mount a windows shared folder at fstab and allowing
normal user to have read-write permissions.
I have tried
//192.168.0.1/linux /mnt/my_network_share/linux smbfs
username=myusername,password=mypassword, default 0 0
//192.168.0.1/linux /mnt/my_network_share/linux smbfs
username=myusername,password=mypassword,rw,uid=root,gid=root 0 0
Both of them will mount the drive, but normal users won't be able to
write? How to i make it with write permission? What am i missing?

Is it via P4M266. what is the problem?
I have two boards with power on problems. The battery (the regular
suspect) was not the problem. will be sending both back.

Never had a problem with the lan check your RJ45 male.

Maaan !!! I was just about keeping pace with LDD, 2nd Edition. I still have so much to cover and understand in 2.4 itself... so many things to explore... !!!
Oh well !! So little time, SO much to do ;-)

Time to vote with your wallet i suppose. AMD / VIA C3 it is for
personal use until the air clears up.

Using a mobo with the above will probably leave you exposed in a
zillion ways. Even turning off the power is of no help.
But for a private corporate network it has the potential to make
the admins life interesting (maybe easy?).

This is currently only qmail on AMD64 with > 4GB of virtual memory, but
people should upgrade anyway.

the program at:
http://www.guninski.com/where_do_you_want_billg_to_go_today_4.html#qpopup
executes code with root privileges via qmail-popup for me.
the same commands zero writing bug.
notes for the qmail fanatics:
- this is not a dos, this is remote code execution with root privileges
- with local access the offsets are easily found, so exploitation is very
reliable in this case
- djb gives installation instructions in INSTALL which allow root compromise
- the payload consists of "int3" which produces trace trap for the microsoft
certified solitaire experts (MCSEs) who can't get it
