I need a Linux distro that will give me the following:
Run on a Raspberry Pi

The issue is that because these machines are only on when being used, primarily for school work, windowsupdate begins installing patches it launches TrustedInstaller which in turn hogs 100% of the CPU and renders the…
More informational than techy, but are there any Australians (or frequent visitors to Australia) who can tell me who the big players are in providing Wifi hotspots over there?
A colleague is going there for a few weeks and will need to connect back remotely, so I wanted to be able to steer him towards some of the bigger names.
Thanks,

I have XAMPP installed. I am running Windows 7. I have WordPress installed so that I may tweak it and test things locally before putting them 'live' on a remote server. I just installed BuddyPress. The installation was rather seamless. I activated the plugin and almost immediately, Apache crashed. I have Apache running as…
I had an idea of using my Windows VM (on a Ubuntu host) to open itms:// links (for iTunes) from the host. So, I'm using vboxmanage guestcontrol to make this happen.
I have a script (win_vm_launcher.sh) that takes a link as the argument, and passes it to the host like this:

In this way, each ISP is being used for a separate…

What is the best way to backup data on content servers? For example, I have 15 servers that just have content, no applications running on it. Each server has a 250 GB hard drive. So, it's a pretty big amount of data. All the data have external access (via HTTP).
So, the question is: what…

I'm putting together a Linux box that will act as a continuous integration build server; we'll mostly build Java stuff, but I think this question applies to any compiled language.
