Comment Personification and memorization. (Score 1) 1397

easy enough. hell of a lot easier to remember a named system that a "resource" system. IE, try to remember "DCRM_VPNT1_03" vs. "BORG3" I have a tendency to name servers after who they remind me of. Kind of like personification. For instance, my home media server is "Goku," because i built it in 2000, and ever few years it just keeps getting more power-ups. Never dies.

Comment Dell Latitudes (Score 5, Informative) 663

I have both a Dell d830 and d620 which have non-reflective screens. The D830's native resolution is 1920x1200. I think you haven't been looking around enough, there are plenty of options. However, you typically have to look towards the business-class models for non-reflective (corporate cubical farm) models.

Journal Journal: Installing FC4, again

I have been trying to install a MythTV box for almost a month now. Have had only marginal success.

This last time, went through the Fedora MythTV FAQ verbatum, and ended up loosing the ability to install via Yum, Apt, and RPM. Lamest part, was that since I couldn't install, I also couldn't uninstall to get back to where I was.

Best I can see, it was a Python problem.
