    .Net Remoting + Winnows Service Acting as a Server

    For the client, somewhere so this stuff gets initialized and connected, I just used my constructor, but could go wherever you need it: HttpChannel chan = new HttpChannel(0); //create a new channel, but use port 0, so we can't listen ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(chan); //register our...

    Enumerate Dialup/Network adapters

    In C++, what do you think is the best way to get a 'list' of all installed network/dialup adapters. Is there an API call that I'm missing to do this? I just want to get a list of adapters, so I can find the 'selected' one in the registry. Just wondering if there's an easy way to do it, or if...

    A7N8X-E Mobo wierd problems

    Make sure you update all your drivers (Nvidia soundstorm, usb, etc). Make sure the motherboard is correctly grounded. Maybe some wire came loose and is touching the mobo in the wrong spot or something. Other than that, only problems I've heard with this happening is during overclocking ;) tsk...

    How to configure a video card?

    disable onboard video in bios after you have downloaded drivers from nvidia, and installed them. Then you can configure X with xorgconfig (i believe), perhaps xf86config, unsure, haven't done it in a while. But in reality, download drivers from nvidia.com, install them as per instructions...

    Installing Debian over internet from a LAN

    Well, if you have isofs installed on another linux machine, you can mount the iso image, and it'll act as a cd that has been mounted, and you can point your installation toward the computer with the mounted iso, and install as per you were going - OR you can open up the port on your router that...

    3dfx Voodoo 3

    use the command prompt :) Find specific video drivers for that card, or just use a standard 'vesa' driver until you can find one. Reconfigure X with the new driver (xorgconfig or xf86config), and configure your video modes/card from the database. Should be ok after that, methinks The weevil...

    If the printer is installed, you can use the PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters property, and get strings of each printer that is installed, here's a basic example of getting all installed printers on a computer, or network, and adding their respective strings to a combo box. Note, this is a...

    where is mplayer for redhat9

    another option to mplayer is the xine media center... it's updated frequently, and supports tons of codecs... also plays music files if i remember right, anyway, if you can't get mplayer to work, the xine source is readily available, and as long as you have required libs, it doesn't matter what...

    Can't access drive in XP after Suse 9.1 Install

    Mount the windows drive in linux (with NTFS write support), copy the files over... then you can maintain your linux partition, and have your windows too. Ahhh, meat and potatoes, with a slice of pie... can't get better than that :) The weevil of doooooooooom -The eagle may soar, but the weasel...

    Can't access drive in XP after Suse 9.1 Install

    Windows doesn't have support for EXT* partitions, so you won't be able to see that data from Windows, whereas linux DOES support NTFS filesystems(as well as FAT32), so you CAN see your windows files from within linux. Not the other way around. The weevil of doooooooooom -The eagle may soar...

    Problem with Linux hard drive

    HuH!! well, before you go and get rid of that drive, have you formatted the drive, perhaps there is just some data corruption error, maybe a low-level format will work for you, who knows. But you should explore all possibilities before you go and get rid of something :) re-fdisk, re-format...

    Problem with Linux hard drive

    what type of partitions do you have? if they are e2/e3 (ext2,ext3), you can bootup to a command prompt in single user mode, and use e2fsck with a couple of options to fix, or ignore these bad sectors (they will be relocated to lost+found directory), and then you can go on your merry way. other...

    Linux dialer

    to setup a dialup connection from the commandline, you use pppsetup, or is it ppp-setup, i'm not sure, i haven't done it in a long while, then you use ppp-go to dial once you have set it up. You can put this command into a simple script, and not have to worry about writing too much yourself...

    DB library or GDBM

    if you've just installed it, remember to 'ldconfig' this may help in sorting out libraries and whatnot for newer installed applications. cheers The weevil of doooooooooom -The eagle may soar, but the weasel never gets sucked up by a jet engine (Anonymous)
