In my own opinion, 32 bit to 64 bit is a normal evolution.The correct way would have been (like on PowerPC) to keep strict downward compatibility, 32 bits application should always be able to run on a 64 bit machine, which is not always the case today.Adressing memory in a 64-bit word instead of a 32-bit word makes acces to huge memory applications easier, you will need twice less memory accesses. However, with the small machines you probably have (far less than 64 gigs memory) I don't think this will make any difference.

I wouldn't say that it has failed badly. There was a step with human detection, then a python bot was able to do the job, then a further version of the game will beat the bot.

If this is a server, it has to accessed by client machines, so you also have to configure the "listen" instruction in httpd.conf saying which IP address has to be served ("listen"ed to).Because the main reason for installing a sever is playing with client machines

in a command line window, type sleep 60 &then type ps -aefin the ps display you will your "sleep 60" command running. This command does nothing more than sleeping during 60 seconds. You will see the process ID of this sleep command, and the ID of thre process which started this sleep command (most probably your bash window).

Funny but usual situation. Everybody knows that Unix and Windows have very leak protections. But when you come to a practical case, you are blocked by the same security features which appear as being not really weak.

That's why I love listening to music while typing a long text. My keystokes follow the music tempo, which helps me sustaining a regular long-lasting typing. Rock-around-the-clock is really nice for having a good typing speed. And of course the people around me are less disturbed by my typing if they are able to accept my music as long as my fingers follow the music tempo. Unfortunately, this is not possible with mp3 earphones, this needs mp3 subwoofers.

By the way, this topic is somehow short, it does not really meet the requirements for a tutorial.That's why I moved it here, where it's place most probably is.RegardsYordan

The download speed is not the important speed. The important speed is the speed of the link between you and your wifi routeur, and from the router to the second PC, so inside your house, not the speed with the worldwide web.And of course the trick is to start something on the second computer (through vnc) which means typing in the monitor 3 (the one which has no mouse), then iconify the vnc window and click in monitor two and work on monitor two, then click on monitor one and type inside monitor one, then click on vnc and work on monitor three.

I sing good enough. Simply my neighbours don't agree with this obvious fact.

OK, everything is installed. However, nothing has been tested.So, I think that at this step you should add some testing, explain how to configure httpd.conf in order to add a user, create a database for that user, and untar phypmyadmin and check that it easily uses php and apache for accessing the database.

I guess that this is a bug. Probably the wifi adapter is handshiking, seeing that identity is already registrated, accepting, but the message does not disapear.

I tried to play with the CentOS liveCD on a virtual machine, it couldn't load the graphics. It's the first time I have seen a Linux release which is unable to load X during the boot phase. Still has to be improved, RedHat does not have such problems.

Of course, the wifi router goes off when power cuts. And he losses his connection. And he is annoyed by the ask for authentication when the router comes back to work.

The answer to "why" is in the starter topic text :

If I really start singing, this will disturb people which are not in the room, so they did not read the notice on wall

Hi, consolmatte, welcome aboard.

As far as I read the starter topic, he is not disturbed by the keyboard noise. Simply his keyboard is disturbing everybody in the house. So, if he wears earphones with some music, this will not solve the problem for the other people disturbed by the keyboard. The headphones with music will even make the problem worse, if he starts singing with the hard rock music.

also learn how to make backup/restore using standard Unix tools: cd /myfiletime find . -print |cpio -pmduv /mybackups/myfilecd /find myfile -print |cpio -omBdv >myfile.cpiotar xvf myfile.tar myfile

Mozilla owns firefox. I expected Mozilla to be an independant company. Or do you mean that Google owns Mozilla?

OK, vnc does the job.vnc server is running on the computer without keyboard.vnc client is running on the computer which has a keyboard.The vnc client gives you remote accces to the remote computer with your own mouse and keyboard.With alt-tab you shift to the vnc window, and you are on the remote computer. And you move your mouse dow the menu bar to go back to your local computer.Of course, if you have a lot of money for buying hardware, the kvm switch perfectly does the job : each computer is connected to the switch, as well as your keyboard-mouse, and you go from one computer to the next one through simple key sequences (control-control, as far as I remember).

bash is only one Unix shell, csh is a very common one, and I am using ksh all thay long.and "grep" or "awk" are not specifi to bash, but are standard Unix programs, which apply to Linux which is fortunately is a standard Unix too.

OK, seems that you ask several questions at the same time.If you are on a working non-graphic terminal, because for some reason the X session did not start, simply type "startx" on the Linux command line.The other point is that, it seems that you LInux system did not start automatically, because the default auto-start is not defined.Then, if you are using the grub booting environment, you need to know how to repair the grub environment. This is one of the next tutorials MC promissed us. I will not do it because I'm a Lilo fan :DI don't know how it behaves with fedora 18, but with most of Linux distros, when booting on the distribution DVD you can access a menu asking if you want a fresh install or if you want to repair your current install, and then choose to repair the boot loader, and define which operating system will start first.Of course, I guess that, if you want to create a multi-boot PC, you still have to install Crosoft Windows first, and the install Linux, else you will disturb your boot order sequencer.

Having a list of all tasks running on a linux system is very easy.On a command-line shell window, just type the following : ps -aefThis will give you a list of all running programs, yours and other ones. For each running task you will see the proces ID of the task, the process ID of the father task, the name of the task, and when it was fired.

Maybe creating a backup-restore server?If you have several PC's in your home, you will need a strong backup/restore policy for the operating systems.First create a samba server if your main PC is a Linux one, or create a share if your main PC is a Windows one.Then learn how to boot on a cloneZilla cd and create a full backup on the samba server.Then learn how to restore this backup on a crashed system.

Let's see how you feel this. I know that a hacker is very skilled in kernel knowledge, but a lot of so-called hackers seem to simply love cracking codes.
