I've been googling for hours trying to find a decent Windows outliner. I have to make an outline for a senior thesis, and I need some freeware that'll let me do it. I don't have MSWord, only OpenOffice, and it's god-awful outlining system won't do. Anyone got a suggestion or recommendation? -- Wo o ty Woot? contribs 03:45, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
How do I find out if my computer is 32- or 64- bit? What does that even mean?-- Sonjaaa 04:49, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
I recently ran Rootkit Hunter with the updated hash database on my Linux server, and it reported that every single one of my main executables (it lists like 50 of them, including stuff like cat, ls, ps, du, etc.) have the wrong MD5 checksum. I have another computer that has pretty much the same configuration (same distro, same updates, same package versions), and its executables are reported as okay. I then copied some of the suspect executables from my server to this other computer, and computed the hashes manually. They are indeed different; diff also reports that they are different; but the sizes and modification dates look identical.
Is this bad? What do you guys think I should do? -- 131.215.159.11 07:25, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Which exe program is responsible for loading the desktop at startup?
Any idea why USR 3COM WinModems are not compatible with Damn small linux?Also when I tried to change the initialization string from the cd bootup version of Damn Small Linux from "ATZ" to that of Us robotics winmodem string,It did not accept the change and only took the default ATZ value.And ATZ is the command to reset the 3Com winmodem.

My flash stick came preformatted as FAT (obviously), and I keep it that way so I can transfer files to Windows computers. But sometimes I get sick of having all my files labelled executable (and all the other permissions set to defaults) when doing Unix-to-Unix transfers. Is there any filesystem overlay or somesuch (I'm thinking FAT with extra metadata) that would allow that information to be maintained but still be readable by Windows? Or do I have to write one? (I've been wondering when I'd get the chance to write my own filesystem) -- 대조 | Talk 12:33, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
i want to update the driver of the video card of my computer that is nvidia nv44, (i know that I need to go here http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp ), but if I go to graphiocs driver section there is many types: quadro, geforce 8800 series, geforce e tnt series, geforce go series, what i need to download??? 201.79.42.226 18:27, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
I've deployed a model-view-controller application on my jboss application server but have seen that I don't have the servlets and other stuff in the right places.
I'm thinking if I could find a sample web app that uses servlets and jsp pages in a model-view-controller application I could compare that with my losing effort and make the necessary corrections.
Would you happen to know where I could download such a sample app?
Is it possible to have SATA and IDE running side by side, with SATA as the master? Also, can you copy XP and programs onto a new HDD from an old one, i nedd to get a bigger drive! Thanks Jackacon 19:56, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi. I use Linux (Ubuntu 6.06) and have a friend who uses Windows XP. She has a webcam - is there any software we can use to enable video-conferencing? Thanks very much, No Retreat No Surrender 20:04, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Well i need more room to run my programs on my computer, so i was wondering if there was anyway to turn RAM To ROM? any thing would be of help thank you.
you could increase the size of your Virtual RAM, that uses a part of the HDD for RAM Jackacon 20:07, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Greetings,
I have been categorizing my consoles and am wondering what the bit power of the Atari 2600's GPU (or CPU) was.

What kind of email software does Microsoft offer?
I've heard from several sources that it would be unwise to purchase Windows Vista right after release, and that I should wait a few months for most of the bugs to be worked out. Would the same apply to something like Office 2007? Also, if I were to purchase either one, would I be able to install them on more than one computer?-- the ninth bright shiner talk 21:33, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
I've noticed that certain video files me and my friends have encountered cannot be fast forwarded, you can't skip to any other point in the clip. The only thing you can do is just play it forward, and to get to a certain point you have to sit and watch everything preceding it. Is there any way that this can be avoided? I try taking it into Windows Movie Maker and it's unable to import. What's going on here? NIRVANA2764 21:36, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
HellO HelpDesk,
Under IE 6.0.2100.2180 SP2, when I go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Help_desk/Archive_33 , I wind up with a screen that looks like this;
My IE seems to be having a problem with Frames that Firefox (running on the same computer) does not have. This occurred on a previous version of IE 6.0 and my upgrade to SP2 didn't help at all.
Thx,
