Anyone ever heard of this company? The only information I can find is another company bought them out but I want to know if anyone has ever used their switches or owns them or works with them/has worked with them. I can pickup a deal on 2 of them so if they are any good I might aswell get them...

Howdy everyone. Alight so I've been wanting to do this for awhile, just for the hell of it and to get some real nice sound quality out of the deal I guess. Currently I got a Creative 5.1 Setup *4 speakers and a sub*, it sounds pretty good, better then some of my buddies setups thats forsure...

Guess I'll just have to give it a shot and we will see. Mainly I was trying to figure out.... F@H Spread out over the cluster = faster at crunching or if.. F@H running independantly on each machine would be faster, I mean 200mhz crunching numbers still takes about 4-5 days PER unit ;), pretty...

I think you guys are forgetting one important factor into their main decision if it isn't backwords compatible. Xbox has great graphics for its time, great games aswell, Xbox 2 will be even better. BUt in order to make the best gaming system out there, you have to have the best hardware and...

I use XBconnect except it isnt very busy for Splinter Cell, although there always seems to be over 100 games you can join for Halo 2. I don't mind paying for Xbox or using all the Live trials ;) but the thing that pisses me off is that you NEED a cc in order to use them and figure out if it is...

Ok so I would have to be running say all one clusterKnoppix distro to make sure I wouldn't have an issue, that makes sense I guess. Dedicated network, yah for a first cluster/messing around, 100mbit should do me fine, I could probably pickup a switch but the cards would be the thing that would...

Not to sound like a **** or anything, but you are working with a 500-1000US budget, claiming you will be starting a download server on a T3 line with your "bro" Basically your an old me and a bunch of other guys on this forum, 14 years old, lots of warez, not alot of money but alot of mind. If...

Ok now this may not work but it might be a simple resolution if it does work. type dhclient into your console, then ifconfig, paste the results of ifconfig on here.

Well I got the switch in my room, and enough 10/100mb cards for the computers right now and it wont be hard to get more so 100mbit switched network in my room should work fine. I thought the reason openMosix was different then from say a Beowolf cluster was that the machines and kernels didn't...

Anyone else here using openMosix or tried it out? I haven't looked into it to far but I was planning on using clusterKnoppix to build a little minifarm in my room so I thought I might aswell get asking. Does it work on FreeBSD? Would MUCH rather prefer a minimal install of FreeBSD then load up...

If you insist on Linux, do say a Debian or RH install over network. What HDD size you got u never mentioned? Personally I use FreeBSD floppies for one of my old laptops with no CDrom (now a server), boot off floppy, install over network, takes about 30-60mins depending on speed, and bam you got...

Whats the IT sector like for you guys who are already in it within Canada somewhere? I am over in Calgary and going to go hitup my NNT (Network Engineering Technology) and was wondering if I should take something else, or another after/during, or if I should be ok? Basically I have a...
