Hi list,
I have an external amplifier that can be controlled using the commands
"remote_power amp on" and "remote_power amp off".
I'd like to have ALSA automatically turn on the amplifier whenever
something tries to play sound and to turn it off after some period of
idleness. Is this possible?

Why in emacs, iceweasel, etc. is RIGHT ALT ignored? LEFT ALT is
processed as ALT, but RIGHT ALT is treated like I didn't press it.

hi folks :)
How is the best way to deny and allow by time and date of user/s
poweroff/reboot system?
This client runs from 08am to 8pm. I have to deny all users reboot or poweroff
within time, but user/s can reboot or poweroff this system from 8.01pm to
7.59am.
Thanks!

My advice is to use Debian Sid with packages and kernel from experimental.
The latest packages is best one.

If your service is an ADSL one, first check to see what the line sync
figures are, then look at the downstream attenuation figure.
I'm able to log downstream attenuation from my DSL modem with

straightforward as long as the modem provid

Hi Kristjan,
sounds good. I'll try that too. I have Vigor 2710 ADSL/ router. This
router has some log collect facility with an external PC using a
Draytek's software which is apparently for a MS windows only. Your
solution may provide an alternative to it.
