If you have an ATI video card try adding 'pcie_aspm=off' to your kernel command line in grub. It disables some advanced power management (that is in the Linus kernel, but enabled in the Fedora kernels), but it sure made my system with an ATI HD3650 video card much more stable. There are a couple of bugs open on lock up issues.
I live in a rural area and I use the MBR1000 and the Sprint Broadband card to do my daily work. It works well and there are several machines at my house connected to this setup. I can even watch movies from Netflix this way. However, Sprint does have a 5GB limit until they start charging you extra, so you need to monitor your usage to keep from getting huge bills or just get a couple of cards.
Go ahead and let them change the low end definition, but only as long as the executives of those companies are only allowed to have that level for their usage. Nothing higher than the low end, including when they are in the office and on the road. Then they would see how frustrating it is to get anything done on the net with these limited data rates. I live in an area that has no DSL, no Cable (due to Qwest and Bresnan not wanting to spend the money) and I use Sprint's broadband card for my daily usage. It is doable, but at 1Mb it is at the low end of where I want to be. Can't see having to do my work at less than that.
Would love to see the execs reactions to their kids complaining that the internet was slow and they could not watch YouTube or downloading music from iTunes took more than a couple of seconds.
Totally agree on this... love that the cities get multiple high speed options and I can't get anything where I live other than cellular.
Correct!
Tools that should fit the need include FileNet from IBM, and Documentum from EDMS. I'm sure those are others, but I'm familiar with both of them.
I've never really seen a good open source tool that does this.
Document Management tools allow organizing, searching, tagging, access control and filesystem or web based access. And 100,000 documents is nothing for one of those systems.
Unless your teleco (QWest) won't put in the parts to enable DSL cause it won't make enough money. I live out of town in a subdivision of 25 houses. QWest says they won't put the part into the box (which I can see from my house) cause it needs 75 people to make it pay for itself. So I have to use wireless broadband to get any kind of decent internet.
Aren't we paying some type of fee so that they must offer this service?
I just hope it is a service with a reasonable cap or without a cap. The current 5GB limit to the wireless internet is way to small. If it has a 100GB or over cap I'd sign up today. Currently, I run about 25GB over Sprint Broadband and would expect more with a faster service. And yes it is all legal stuff...
The HBO example page they use works just fine with gecko-mediaplayer and mplayerplug-in, that Linux users have had for years.
