getting a little burnt by the Sun

by Mike Leo

Hi again... I screwed up my XF86Config file and now X "starts" but the keyboard mouse is all screwed up. Since xf86config does not list Sun, what do I put for the keyboard/mouse type? This is a Sun Ultra30 running Aurora linux (for now). thanks mike ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs

If it's going to be 1 RAID array, IMO, it doesn't really matter. Your problem is going to be disk contention either way. If you were really worried about this, you'd make 2 different arrays. -- Randomly Generated Tagline: DEVICE=EXXON.SYS may mess up your environment

Server configuration

by Michael Long

Hi, I am building web/database server and am looking for some installation advice. The system will have an IDE boot drive for the OS and a raid for the data files. Is there an advantage to partitioning the raid drive so that the web content is on one partition and the database files are on another or am I better off keeping it as a single partition. System Specs: Dual Opteron 248 2.2 GHz LSI Logic MegaRAID SCSI 320-1 Controller Seagate Cheetah 10K.7 - 73 GB - Ultra320 SCSI Seagate 80 GB IDE drive Suse 9.3 Thanks in advance, Mike

Yea, the Cisco VPN needs the kernel sources. On gentoo I have to recompile it every time I update my kernel...
