Blackberry RIMs

This is a warning to all other Blackberry Administrators. Cingular has been migrating their database of users in the Northeast and apparently lost records of who has paid for services and who has not.

Twin-view in Linux Red-Hat?

Barney

Hi, I'm running Red-Hat 9. 0 and I wondered if there is any way to clone your desktop to another screen or if there is some program that can do it? When I used Windows XP I used TvTool. Is there a version of TvTool for Linux?.

Linux Customization Tweaking 106

A couple of tips and tweaks that havn't been posted.

Tekchip

First tip is nothing amazing but might help some people out a little performance wise. Note: Only try this if your video card was part of the default list of cards when you installed/configured X. I dont know what it'll do if it wasn't directly supported by your distro.

Installing VMware 3.2 on Mandrake 9

wozzeck

Hi everyone, This is my third day on Linux, attempting to install VMware on Mandrake 9. I've run into this problem (I think this is the problem. ): when running vmware-config. pl, it asks for the source code for the currently running kernel, so it can recompile the vm module to run with the kernel.
