Hello,
I'm using a software raid with mdadm (mirror). A few days ago the mdadm removes
during the boot process one disk and sets the raid inactive.
The disk contains no errors (smartctl) and nothing is reported in the logs. I
reassemble the disk and activate the raid again. Reboot
the system and

What do you gain if you abuse your drive so hard that its lifetime is
severly impacted?

That if it has a problem that will cause it to fail soon in it's life,
then I can find it soon. Remember that curve about failures? I would
like to get past that first part

A smaller drive, backups can be compressed. Also, you don't need to
backup everything, for example rips of DVDs and CDs you own can be

Dears,
Actually It is working. But not the way I want it. I've installed bluez and
stuff, I've wrote some lines at /etc/asound.conf and I'm able to hear from
it while I type something like this:
mplayer -ao alsa:device=bluetooth
I could also configure it at Skype, but the microphone not seems t

No videos don't compress well at all, compressing video files is just a

Hi,
I am asking, because I found not only one description of somehow
complicated setups to compile a distribution (namely gentoo) for a
platform "A" (Beaglebone TI OMAP4) on that platform with distcc to
speedup things or with emulated chroot environments based on qemu...
I thought it would be the

Hi,
For the described I am using an IBM model M keyboard (PS2) which
is connected with a "blue cube" OS2->USB adaptor to a USB-port
of my PC.

the end of tha
Just an observation : when I updated Libre Office & Firefox this week,
neither compile used swap (I have 4 GB RAM);
OTOH when I did them the previous time, both did use swap;
the total time & the HDD usage remained almost the same.
In between, I updated the Kernel 3.0.0 -> 3.4.0 ,
but made no oth
