You can run "strings" on it, or have a peek in a hex editor...
How I do that? What would I learn from it? hex editor? I think I saw
that somewhere. O_O I thought KDE used to have something that I could
view it with but since the upgrade I can't find it. Maybe lde-meta
missed something???
I think "KDE Menu Button -> Utilities -> More Applications -> Binary Editor
(KHexEdit)" is what you're looking for. Ironically enough, I was just using
it.
Mine was under File instead of More Apps. Now I have to go download the
thing again. I hate windoze and I don't even like storing windoze stuff
on my rig. Wonder why?
My brother got a digital camera for Christmas. You have to plug in the
USB camera then reboot winders for it to work. Is that some crap or
what? I updated the drivers for USB too. It wouldn't work at all
before I did that. It would see the camera then come up with a hardware
error. Stupid windoze. It took me 20 minutes to get it to work in
Linux and I spent all day screwing with windoze. Just in the spirit of
things, reboot to make it work. That sucks. He's happy that it works
at all but I'm not. I may put Linux on that thing yet. If I knew I
wouldn't be moving soon, I would. I'd put a bigger heatsink on the CPU
and compile away. He has seen my Linux and thinks it is cool. I would
have to do the admin stuff though. Ssh comes to mind here.
OK. I vented a bit. One more thing to vent though, I HATE WINDOZE!!!
