Buying a Compaq "loaded" is kinda a misconception. Every Compaq server I

call it.) And Compaq's loads (in my experience), are anything but easy.

Having the package wouldn't make much of a difference if you were using
ping. A ping is a ping is a ping, a mac ping is just a ping to a
windows/Redhat/SuSE/OBSD/Solaris machine, and vice versa, you shouldn't need
any special packages installed to ping a mac, just like you shouldn't need

Hey All,
It is possible to run many different resolutions and
color depths on an X server. If they are all setup right
the key sequence [ctrl+alt+"+"] will bring higher
resolutions and the "-" sign will bring lower
resolutions. Hope that this is on target since I have

color depths too?
Hey Marie,
Perhaps the easiest way to accomplish this is to use
one of the pre-existing tools
(XConfigurator,xf86config). Within these tools you can
specify resolutions and color depths. You can choose
your default color depth/resolution as defined by X

Hey All,

Internal clocks work by counting the cycles in electricity. If you look in
the BIOS, there may be a setting for "clock cycles" or something similar.
Make sure that it is set to the proper cycle speed for your area (Anybody

So, signs point to the problem not being this box. The problem actually
lies either with the Mac or somewhere between the Mac and here. We both

consistent

Not on PCs. There's a small quartz oscillator on the system board
that drives the internal clock. (Otherwise, how would it run when the

are there any python users out there? i have the following task that would

balterdash! let me rephrase:
re.sub("(http://127.0.0.1)", 1, var_a)
how do i store the "(http://127.0.0.1)" part and reuse it in the

I have no idea. It's possible that one some systems, the clock
switches to line frequency. Line frequency is
most of the ones with software switches will query the CPU, and if it can,
it sends the speed (voltage and multiplier) and the BIOS applies the
appropriate values so that there is nothing to set (my ASUS was like this).

Hi Sunnan,
I haven't tried it myself, but there's supposed to be a way to do this
by starting up with (and I quote):
Python was converting the \1 in your string to ASCII character code 001.
Try this:
re.sub('(%s)' % re.escape('http://127.0.0.1'), '\\1', var_a)
Alternatively you can use r'\1' instead of '\\1' (the r prefix means to
treat the following string as a raw string instead of processing backslash
esca

In most countries with DC power, an "inverter" is required to use

You could download the ISO to your hard drive, mount it as an ISO
