Ok, I modified xorg.conf, but it didn't help (still getting that error,
and X refuses to start).
I could re-install, but I don't like that notion (I definitely don't
want all the packages in the default setup, so I have to go thru every

I've found an old IBM OmniBook 800 and am curious whether I can get it
going again. (Currently it boots either Windows 95 or some
then-contemporary version of Slackware.) The CDROM is external (SCSI,
I think) and the machine won't boot from it, so it'd require a boot
floppy. Any suggestions? Or

The last time I tried to put a Linux on an obsolete box, it was on a
computer with only 80MB of RAM. Pick an old enough distribution to
fit that, and I had all sorts of problems getting a PCMCIA LAN card to
work.
If I had got it to work, it would have

I have an issue with a busy CentOS server exporting iSCSI and NFS/SMB shares.
Some of the files are very large, and when they get deleted IO climbs to an
unacceptable rate. Is there a way to purge a file with little to no IO
overhead on ext3?
Thanks!

Plug the PC into a stable power source, let the same PC monitor the UPS.
Unplug the UPS and place a load on it, watch what it instructs the PC to
do :)
Check your halt scripts for a command
