• convert DivX (and other formats) to DVD video under linux

  - by Carson Myers

  Can anyone recommend a DVD format converter which runs under ubuntu 9.04? I need to convert a DivX format into a regular DVD, but converters for other formats would be helpful (to me and others) as well. Free software would be nice but non-free is okay too.

• Upgrading disks in WD My Book Studio Edition II

  - by Bryan

  About 18 months ago, I purchased a 1Tb Western Digital My Book Studio Edition II for backup of my home system. It has 2x 500Gb drives in it, which I had configured as RAID 1. One of the disks has now died, and rather than replace like for like, I'd like to replace both drives to increase the capacity (2 x 2Tb would be nice). I'm struggling to find a list of compatible drives, has anyone else upgraded theirs?

• Fetch MP3 ID3 tag under linux

  - by exic

  Hi, I have a few mp3 files which are not tagged. Winamp has a nice feature which I think is called "autotag" and which is very good at finding out artist and title for files. I'd like something like this for unix, so that I could possibly get artists and titles for my untagged files. Do you know some program which does this? Thanks.

• How can I prevent firefox from using bitmap fonts at certain zoom levels?

  - by Ryan Thompson

  In firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu 9.10, certain sites seem to use bitmap fonts for any fixed-width fonts, but only at specific zoom levels. This site and other stackexchange sites are among the affected sites, and of course the default zoom level is affected. At unaffected zoom levels, I get the expected smooth curvy fonts. How can I make firefox use the nice curvy smooth fonts at all zoom levels?

• CPU Test Similar to Memtest?

  - by Nick Whaley

  I need an easy way to do system stability tests. I have come to rely on Prime95 which does a fantastic job of proving stability (or instability) very quickly; but it requires an OS installed. I would like something like Prime95 that stresses both CPU and RAM (maybe PCI-Ex bus also?) but runs in a nice bootable binary like Memtest86+ does, so I can boot it from a thumbdrive. Does such a thing exist?

• What are the popular file indexing engines on Linux?

  - by netvope

  It would be nice if you can share your experience on the pros and cons of each of them. Personally I only know Google Desktop and Beagle, and I haven't really used them. I mainly store my files on Windows (and use its integrated indexed search) but I'm trying to see if I can switch over to Linux. Also, can any one of the search indexer run without X? Does any of them provide an API for search queries?

• How can I set the BIOS/EFI security password on IBM System x servers by script/ASU?

  - by christian123

  I want to deploy IBM System x servers (like IBM System x 3550 M2) automatically and need to set a security password in the bios (actually it's uefi). I found this nice tool named ASU: http://www-947.ibm.com/systems/support/supportsite.wss/docdisplay?brandind=5000008&lndocid=MIGR-55021 Unfortunately I cannot see an option to set the password. Forum searches only show me people who want to reset the password using this tool. Does anybody know how to automatically deploy system passwords on IBM Intel-based servers?

• Is it "OK" to use a low end NIC for a dedicated heart beat between two servers?

  - by Stu Thompson

  I've got nice big server-grade NICs on my servers busy interfaces. Soon I'll be setting up a cluster that will have a dedicated heat-beat. Do I really need to use an expensive server grade NIC for this? Or will a low-end desktop NIC suffice?

• Disable USB powered light from command line?

  - by Jeff Welling

  I have a nice little USB light which has no off switch, it is 'on' for the duration of being plugged in. My question is, is there a way of disabling the USB port so as to turn off the light while it is still plugged in? Preferably, this could be done from the command line, but if it's possible at all that would be really cool regardless. I use Mac and Linux, but am interested to learn if this is possible in any OS, or if physical hardware prevents usage like this.

• How can I generate a 10-day report every day using ISA Server 2006?

  - by RichieACC

  We're using ISA Server 2006 (Version 5.0.5723.514) Our ISP imposes a 10GB usage limit per 10 day cycle. What I would like to do is generate a report automatically on a daily basis, showing our usage for the previous 10 days. It would also be nice to send out a notification should the total usage exceed 10GB. Is this possible? If so, how do I set it up?

• Is there an app for the Mac that shows you which apps are using the network?

  - by Paul D. Waite

  I use Menu Meters to show me how much data is being sent and received by my Mac as a whole. But (as far as I can tell), it doesn’t break it down by application. If there’s a lot of data being sent or received, it’d be nice to see which app is doing it.

• If I buy a book on iBooks, can I view it on another (non-apple) reader?

  - by Colen

  Hi, If I buy a book using the apple iBooks application, can I transfer that to another e-reader (for example, the Nook)? It'd be nice to know that I'm not locked into a single type of reader forever.

• best way to import mailing list archives

  - by Naveen Garg

  I tried reading mailing lists in gnus in emacs, but emacs stops responding with the slow nntp servers downloads. nabble, gmane etc are also kind of slow. So I thought about download the gzipped archives available from most mailing lists. here are some nice instructions to import these archives into thunderbird. Is there a similar streamlined way to read the unziped archives in emacs, or other software ?

• How to turn off verification after DVD burning on OS X?

  - by raoulsson

  Hi, I use the built in DVD burner from OS X. Whenever I burn a disk, it is verified after burning. Nice, but I am usually quicker in verifying myself with a bit more human, maybe more error prone process... Just takes too long! Is there a way to turn this off in OS X? Thanks!

• How to change background of Windows 8 Startscreen

  - by LoneWOLFs

  I was a big time user of Windows 7 untill switched to Windows 8. I had customized the login screen for Windows 7 and Microsoft had a nice Registry switch to do so. I am looking for a similar way to change background of the start screen and also the login screen where you answer the password without using any 3rd party software Basically I want to know if there's some hidden toggle for that in the OS somewhere and that anyone is aware of it.

• Deleting large no of files on linux eats up CPU

  - by Sanjay

  I generate more than 50GB of cache files on my RHEL server (and typical file size is 200kb so no of files is huge). When I try to delete these files it takes 8-10 hours. However, the bigger issue is that the system load goes to critical for these 8-10 hours. Is there anyway where I can keep the system load under control during the deletion. I tried using nice -n19 rm -rf * but that doesn't help in system load.

• Recipe organizer for Windows with attractive GUI

  - by Bertolt

  Does anybody know a recipe manager for Windows 7 with a nice-looking GUI. I already peaked at BigOven and Rezkonv and the feature list is really impressive. Nevertheless the GUI of these recipe managers seems terrible to me compared to Mac solutions like MacGourmet. Does anybody know a Windows recipe manager with an acceptable GUI?

• How do I list commands shadowed by other commands in PATH?

  - by sds

  How do I list all the commands in my path which are shadowed by other commands? E.g., if I have /bin/foo, /bin/bar, /usr/local/bar and /usr/bin/foo, I want to see something like foo in /bin shadows /usr/bin bar in /bin shadows /usr/local/bin I guess I can throw together something based on ls and comm, but I would much prefer something out of the box, especially bash-based (it would also be nice if aliases and functions were searched too, but that is not too important).

• Disable "Turn off hard disk after" in windows 7

  - by Andreas Bonini

  How can I disable this feature? In the power options apparently I can only choose the minutes and I don't see a "Off" option. If I set it to 0 minutes, it sets itself to 1. For now I set it to 20000000 minutes, but a real solution would be nice.

• Laserjet Experts: How many power cycles per month?

  - by marienbad

  I recently got a nice Laserjet 8100DN for my house. I will probably never print more than 1% of its rated monthly duty cycle. But it runs some fairly noisy fans 24/7 if it's left on, so I am in the habit of turning the machine off as soon as I'm done with it. So, for all you who have a lot of experiencing administrating workgroup LaserJets, do you think I'll end up killing it from too many on-off cycles?

• Office 2007 Calendar Overlays - Combine meetings that everybody shares

  - by Macho Matt

  I want to display approximately 10 people's calendar in Outlook 2007 using overlays. The problem is that they all share the same meeting a couple of times a week. Thus, I see that show up 10 times on a single day, which compresses what is actually displayed. Since they are all at the same meeting(s), it would be nice to have them just display once. Is this built into Office 2007?
