Linux Vservers, and stuff
ByetzionI’ve had the "pleasure" of reconfiguring Linux Vservers (virtual servers, kernel level, etc), to add additional IP addresses to each. Although this setup is old, and I wouldn’t dare change it to anything else (not on a production server, running 3 vservers, each running 400 hosted sites, etc), so I’ve checked the scripts, and so…
Hard Freeze when Using FireFox, Unison-GTK, and some other GTK apps
ByetzionHard freezes are unpleasant at best. They also prevent you from tracking the source of the problem.

I wanted it both for the practical results (know when you have an exceeding mail load, know when you have a spam attack…), and both for the…

We’ve taken many things into consideration, such…
Preparing your own autoyast with custom Suse CD
ByetzionSuse, for some reason, has to be over-complicated. I don’t really know why, but the time required to perform simple tasks under Suse is longer than on any other Linux distro, and can be compared only to other legacy Unix systems I am familiar with. When it comes to a more complicated tasks, it gets…
