SiS makes better chipsets than VIA... depending on what you're doing they have their strengths over Nvidia as well. If I were to pick two chipset makers 1 would be Intel, 2 would be SiS. I could do without the rest.

i would most definately bought a SiS based board

straight from the horses mouth This is exactly how I thought windows did it (and how I know linux distros that support automount of CD drives do it).

by indemnifying SuSE users, don't you think that will attract customers to novell/SuSe vs things like redhat which are more name brand in the linux server market? Seems like a PR move to me (a smart one).

could be the internet printing?

hmm, i noticed some odd behavior. I was testing a product called e-smith SMEserver 6.0 when I realized that my bandwidth between my computer<->Dlink switch<-> netgear switch<-> 3com 905 was a wopping 9MB/sec.. plug the server into the D-link switch so that there's one less hop and I get even...

That's adobe for you. They cater to mac users 1st and foremost. Which leaves windows users often asking for more in several areas.

with compression it's usually not that bad... you could also make two ghost images onto a single HDD(something I'd prefer over the CD route for that much data).

I 1st noticed the card after somebody recomended it because they used it themselves with good performance and no problems. That's a good recomendation in my book.

in other news, LSI u160 PCI-X controller @ newegg for like $38.00 w/ free shipping http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?DEPA=1&sumit=Go&description=LSI%2Cu160&searchdepa=1

why not try myth?

simply image one drive onto either a set of optical media, tape, or HDD and label it drive 1 and then do the same for the other.... label drive 2... what questions?

actually, probably the mac... but who's counting

Disk insert notification is an invention of windows, not of the IDE spec developed many many years before CD-ROMs even existed. I think it's a total BS story.

As I said before, mythTV seems to be designed around bt8x8 and specifically the winPVR cards. Search for winPVR and you'll find myth. The PVR250 is also well supported by myHTPC. I know you can also use a program called Sage recorder So I know there's nothing proprietary about the card...

did you ever image the server once it was setup?

Now this takes the cake. Get ready handy, cause on March 9th, 2063 I am set to overtake you in F@H. You better increase prodution buddy.... but even then you're only prolonging the inevitable.

yup, definately an orbit theme (there are a few variations)

http://spellchecker.mozdev.org/screenshots.html looks kinda like orbit to me...

last time I checked it was only win2k/XP... im glad they have other drivers available, however it still seems like you must install a driver even for 100baseT network mode (this is after reading 4 reviews). It doesnt show up in network neighborhood, instead using a virtual SCSI controller to...

I've never used the Asus boards that implement this, but most boards put the fan at 100% for the 1st few moments of poot up to make sure the fans start, then they drop the speed down as temperatures permit. Anything else would have to be component specific and tested or would be a design flaw if...

i dont use netscape, but in firebird it's in the options under "downloads"... there was a similar option in netscape 2.x and 3.x for mime types. I agree with merc that this seems likely.

all of seagates retail ATA drives.... same with maxtor and WD..... hmm....

yup, Maxtor and seagate have jumped on the rebate bandwagon along with WD. There are some nice deals to be had... also, what do you mean about the warrant merc? several versions of the 7200.7 have 3 year warranty, any ATA V you find on the shelves should have a 3 year warranty(I think?). All...

just what we need... storage that requires a 3rd party driver and only works in 2k and XP... no thanks.

I agree, this sounds like the software got stuffed. That may be related to an underlying hardware problem though. If it's been working for 4 years, I would think about reinstalling the OS and make a once over of the inside of the case to make sure it's clean, there are no failed fans, and that...

I think the Pioneer would be a better choice considering the "stellar" reputation of the I/O magic for producing quality components

It's the badd as of the desktop market. You can find some preview benchmark results on Storagereview.com. I think they are waiting for a retail drive before finalizing the review.

I assume you fond some rebates give the ebst price I can come up with is about $110 for that drive

my girl friend's step-mother is mexican... mmm... the food.

would you recomend it?

CAREFUL the Antec Overture suffers from an extrmemely CRAPPY paint job. The minuet apears to be the same. It scratches VERY easily. I read a review, but didnt believe it till I saw it in the store... not the usual antec quality at all.. very very poor. I could piss a better paint job.

Merc, ati didnt design or manufacture the remote wonder.. they just slapped their name on it and add functions for it in their software. It is made by a company I think called x10 (there is even an x10 folder on the driver disk that came with mine) If you notice there is a palce for an IR...

That reminds me I should have pointed that guy to the faq. Forums are great resources for information, it really sucks when they cannot be searched well becasue that takes away half of their usefulness. I am really glad to have a google index of the site.. that way I can search through it with...

I completely agree.

newest version of suse 9

btw, the same thing applies to photoshop and probably every other adobe program. It's a common photoshop tweak.

i might try that if I ever need to upgrade past 4.x

hmm.. after looking at that I just might get a DVD burner now... my gf wants one... I assume to burn movies and possibly make backups. Do set-top players read dual layer? For somereason I was thinking that it was part of the original DVD spec, but may have not been implemented in DVD movies...

hmm.... i guess if it works it works... it should be absolutely fine on a small network for surfing.

yeah, I've been trying to visit their forums but was getting time outs earlier.

i think I'll wait till it's integrated into a distro before I try it... should be just another couple months now. Doesn't knoppix still use 2.4.x?

i've heard bad things about the soyo k8 board even recently

That looks less like a storage server and more like something built to handle multiple tasks. That CPU and RAM would be such a waste on a storage server. One thing I notice about this board is the lack of real estate used. Looks like they could have just made it an M-ATX. What will this...

Either ATi will be fine for time shifting (TV on demand), and either recording and/or watching programs (you're obviously limited to 1 tuner, so no recording one thing while watching something else on live TV).. The 9600 offers a radio tuner as well. However, from looking at ATi's site it...

:-) now that's comedy

It is an ATX MSI 440BX slot 1 board that has worked absolutely fine with knoppix. It supports ACPI, has onboard ensoniq sound.. that's about it. (same board I tested earlier when doing network transfers) I was using a slot1 PIII, 2 sticks of PC133 @ 100MHz, the same fujitsu HDD, the same 3com...

oh yeah, dunno if it matters, but SuSe tried to add a phantom eth0 on install... pushing my 3com 905 to eth1... dunno what that was about.

crud, I just lost my post... oh well. I like the link. Nice site. I've had to manually edit the XF86 file many times.. I didnt have my monitors horizontal freq range on hand and everything except the resolutions that SuSe picked were off. So I didnt bother doing anything other than telling X...
