Linux : Howtos : How to get widescreen resolution in Linux?
Posted: ( Sat 1st Jul 2006 05:26:07[PM] UTC )
If you own a laptop with widescreen resolution such as 1280x768, 1280x800 or with a high resolution such as 1400x1050, you might have encountered that problem. XWindow shows up in 1024x768, and it doesn't fill the entire width of the screen. If your laptop's graphic card is an Intel 800 or 900 series (Intel 845G, 855G, 865G, 915G, 915GM, and 945G), there is a very easy solution to fix this.

Linux : Howtos : How to block Gnutella with a Linux/Iptables firewall
Posted: ( Wed 25th May 2005 03:18:59[PM] UTC )
Many P2P (peer to peer) protocols are rather complex to control using packet filtering firewalls such as Linux's IpTables. This is because they often dont use fixed port numbers, sometimes use multiple connection protocols or even encryption.
The P2PWall project is developing software add-ins for Iptables to overcome these issues. The "Rope" module from the P2PWall project provides a scriptable kernel module for packet identification.
This article describes how to use Linux, Iptables and ROPE to identify (and block) the Gnutella protocol.

Even if your work doesn't require you to reboot your Linux machine several times a day, waiting for a system to reboot can be a real drag. Enter kexec. Essentially, kexec is a fast reboot feature that lets you reboot to a new Linux kernel -- without having to go through a bootloader.
FreeOS : Howtos : Writing portable shell scripts
Posted: ( Sat 6th Mar 2004 02:30:30[AM] UTC )
Shell scripts are a popular choice for writing small
programs that do file manipulation. They are generally portable across platforms, but there are a number of things that can make a shell script work fine on one machine and fail on another. This article reviews some of the issues shell programmers may run into when trying to write widely portable scripts.
Linux : Howtos : Customizing a 2.6-based kernel
Posted: ( Sun 22nd Feb 2004 12:55:54[PM] UTC )
The following whitepaper is the first in a series by
William von Hagen on using the new Linux 2.6 kernel,
with a special emphasis on the primary issues in
migrating existing drivers, applications, and embedded Linux deployments to a Linux distribution based on the 2.6 kernel. Material presented is largely vendor-neutral.

FreeBSD : Howtos : Simple FreeBSD installation yields functional desktop system
Posted: ( Fri 9th Jan 2004 06:53:18[AM] UTC )
Many near-religious-level debates revolve around which GNU/Linux distribution is "best." However, we are blessed with two free platforms for desktop usage, the other being BSD. If you can deal with text-based installation and a few post-install commands at the command line, you can install and use FreeBSD 5.1. I got FreeBSD fully installed on a 450MHz AMD K6-III+ system with 512MB of SDRAM and a 36GB 10Krpm SCSI hard disk in just under an hour.

Linux : Howtos : Flexibility in ROM: A Stackable Open Source BIOS
Posted: ( Thu 11th Dec 2003 05:27:24[PM] UTC )
While the LinuxBIOS effort fully supports Linux, other modern operating systems, e.g. *BSD, and Windows 2000/XP, could not be directly supported because of their reliance on a few services provided by those legacy BIOSes. In this paper, we describe how we have combined elements of the LinuxBIOS, the Bochs PC emulator, and additional software to create the first open source firmware for the IBM PC capable of booting most modern operating systems.
