perl: Split loop at...

I've tried this on two different RH8.0 machines: #!/usr/bin/perl while(<>) { @x1 = split(/[\t\n ]+/, $_); foreach $token (@x1) { @x2 = split(/[,;]/, $token); } } Feed it almost any input and you get something like: Split loop at ./test line 8, <>

OK, I tried it again and can't get it to compile with the glibc headers, so maybe I did have kernel source installed at the time. I guess it does make sense to separate the header files that glibc uses from the kernel ones from a versioning point of view but it does make things confusing. Well, it

I found that the src.rpm file found on the motherboard CDROM worked with a simple "rpmbuild --rebuild" and installed no problems. However, if you install RedHat's kernel updates then it no longer works because of annoying kernel header mismatch and (doubly annoying) RedHat don't include an update o

With Cisco and Foundry switches you can get them to send 'Netflow' packets to your chosen UDP port and these packets contain the IP and the MAC and the port number on the switch. After that you just need software to keep track of all the relationships. -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECT

Minor bug (majorly annoying) in X11 and mouse

With a fresh install of RH8.0 set to graphical login (using PS/2 mouse) if you pull out the mouse and reboot what do you get? What would you expect to get? It can be really hard talking someone through a support call when their only report is "I'm looking at a black screen" and they try ALT-F1 fro

I have found a bug while using RedHat 8.0, I think it is in the kernel. The problem relates to the /dev/ttyS1 driver and behaves like a race condition because it does not give exactly predictable results. I have a workaround for the problem but have no idea about doing a real fix (and haven't both
