using vmware might be a better option - it creates machines that are
completely separated from the rest of your system. if you trash the
virtual machine you can just blast the whole thing and be on your way
only problem with this is the hardware requirements for vmware are pretty
steep - it's slow
you are typing with a french keymap. on the french keyboard swaps a - q,
z - w, and puts some other keys in different places. i don't know enough
about setting keymaps to tell you how to fix the problem, but maybe
someone else knows

I have seen the same problem with the XF86_SVGA server with ATI cards. I
could not switch between X and a virtual console without blanking the
screen, freezing things, and other unpleasantness.
I would suggest using an accelerated server if one is available, not only
because it is much more stable
if anyone has a shell open that is is within the directory structure of
the cd then it will report as being in use when you try to unmount
it. make sure every account logged on to the machine is in a different
directory (ie home directory) and you should be able to get the cd out

.gnome-desktop has a link in it (Home Directory) that points to your home
directory (in which is located .gnome-desktop in which there is a link to
your home directory ad infinitum). that's why it recurses forever
use tar instead to copy the directory because it will not follow links.

jpegs are usually the smallest, but the drawback is that the compression
is lossy - the image you uncompress is not _exactly_ what you
compressed. this isn't really a big deal for photos and such, so it's
generally the best for photorealistic images
gifs only support 256 colors, but the compression
6 matches
