Ok, I give in... this seems to be one of the better kept secrets in
distribution land, though I know it has been discussed here before.
How can I upgrade smoothly from rpm-3 to rpm-4 (without downloading an
iso cdrom image, and preferably without a reboot)? The question might
have been where can

Does it actually work with the r128 driver? If so, what's the

Actually, you can do

Or

Frank,
Don't know which version of linux you run, I just built a BP6 dual celeron
box,
the redhat 6.2 installed out of box, it automatically chooses the smp i686
kernel for it. I was preparing for much worse.
Also a cheap alternatives to the tulip cards is the DLink 530TX+
which uses

Hi all,
I would like to compile the openldap src code version 1.2.7 with
the lastest version of sleepycat 3.1.X. But I don't know how to do
that.
At normal, Sleepycat(http://www.sleepycat.org) is a BSD DB API
files and is bundled with glibc. For example, in RH 6.1 the version
of sleepycat is 2.

Maybe the code fails because you're dividing by 0.
