    Radeon Mobility M6 LY not working

    Back when I had Mandrake 10 (kernel 2.6.3), my M6 LY worked just fine and provided great 3D acceleration. But I upgraded to Mandriva 2005LE (kernel 2.6.11), and now I'm getting no acceleration.

    Re: about command

    You can just type it at the command line, or make a shell script as follows:



    #!/bin/sh
    tr A-Za-z M-NA-zm-na-z < $1 > new$1


    Then run it like 'rot13.sh encrypted-file', and it will write...

    That sounds more like ltrace. strace uses the ptrace(2) function (try "strace strace ls"). You really would want to look at the source, though, the output of that command looks confusing as hell.

    Patching the latest supermount against 2.6.7 worked just fine for me. A bunch of hunks succeeded with fuzz, and 3 failed, which I did by hand. Worked just fine.

    I recently updated the kernel on my Mandrake 10.0 system from the default 2.6.3-7mdk to 2.6.7 (from kernel.org, not Mandrake version). This is on an IBM Thinkpad R40 with a Radeon graphics card.

    Re: Is your son a computer hacker?

    It strikes me that this uses "son", "he", etc. throughout while never admitting the possibility of a female "hacker".

    I think that's it, as I've been experiencing slowdowns in Windows too (connection at a slower speed, but consistent performance once connected). The problem's gone now, and performance is incredible.

    I have an IBM ThinkPad R40, running Mandrake 10 (kernel 2.6.3-7mdk) and with an evil software modem. Windows reports it as "Agere Systems AC'97", and Linux (lspci) as:

    I'm confused. I know that I can check if a socket is dead by seeing if read() returns 0, but if it's dead, select() will never mark it as available for reading, right? So how will the program -...
