Hi, I have the latest version of reconstructor (2.8.1), and I think it already has support for graphical apps in the chrooted environment, (by looking at the source, it seems to automatically do many things needed for that) but I don't know how to start the graphical chroot... I open the chrooted terminal, and now what?!? Is anyone familiar with this program? SF007 ( talk) 00:13, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
When I add a new play list to winamp all the songs have their file names as the song names in the list. And as I scroll over them they slowly change over to their tagged details. Is there any way to make them automatically show their tagged name before I scroll over them? Thanks 203.202.144.223 ( talk) 00:33, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
I am trying to write a metaprogram for the Ackermann Function and have written this so far:
template<typename M, typename N> class Ackermann { public: enum{ result = Ackermann<M-1, Ackermann<M, N-1>::result>::result }; };
template<typename M> class Ackermann<M, 0> { public: enum{ result = Ackermann<M-1, 1>::result }; };
template<typename N> class Ackermann<0,N> { public: enum{ result = N+1 }; };
The first error I am getting is that second parameter in the first enum is incorrect, any ideas how that can be fixed? Also, for the other two templates, I am getting "expected a type got 0" error (which makes sense for the third template, but I cant figure out a way to get rid of the third template yet). I have also tried using a conditional '?' in the first enum for the last enum i.e
result = M ? N+1 : Ackermann<M-1, Ackermann<M, N-1>::result>::result
but that too doesn't seem to work. Maybe I am just missing something fundamental. Any comments shall be helpful. Thanks in advance! Aks... ( talk) 00:39, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

"[ -~]@" [<]([ -~]@)[>and "Replace with:" to
\1. The "[ -~]" is an imperfect attempt to capture spaces and printable ASCII characters (acented or extended characters might not be omitted), but not line breaks. The "@" looks for 1 or more repetitions of the preceeding item. The "[<]" and "[>]" matches just those characters (as opposed to "<" and ">" which matches the beginning and end of a word). The "(...)" captures whatever is matched within, and is represented by "\1" in the replace expression. Hope this helps. If you have a comma or semicolon separated list, you might have to modify the "[ -~] with something like "[- -+.-:<-~]" which includes the ASCII characters excluding the comma and colon (dash, space-to-plus, period-to-colon, and lessthan-to-tilda). See ASCII. I suggest you capture the operation into a macro. Hope this helps. -- Tcncv ( talk) 02:11, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

is 0.0.0.0 a valid subnet mask ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by R.srinivaas ( talk • contribs) 05:50, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for answering ....
but RFC 1878 states that
but routers still accept 0.0.0.0 as subnet why ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by R.srinivaas ( talk • contribs) 07:42, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
How to write a program to print the multiplication table of a number such that it prints
the multiplication table of that number & also the numbers preceding it?

How do I add, change or remove items in the "Open With" menu? This is the menu that pops up when you right-click a filename displayed in Windows Explorer. (I have Windows XP SP2.)
For example, if I right-click a file with a ".rtf" extension I get options to open it with MS Word and WordPad, but I wish to change the list for that extension and other ones as well.-- 85.158.137.195 ( talk) 10:52, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
hi,i think of buying a computer.i want to play a lot of games.my friend told me that laptops will get damaged if u play a lot of games.if we connect a key board to it,will there be any damage?i mean damage to software,hard drive etc.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.199.213.66 ( talk) 13:10, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
Hellow friends, I am a newcomer in computer field. I am a medical student. I want to buy something computer related/digital device(but neither a laptop nor a fixed PC) that can help me in my studies. I have study material in the form of Power Point presentations, media player files, office word pages, PDF files, pictures, diccionaries. Is there anything that can help me in my studies (excluding a laptop and a fixed PC). What about a Tablet PC? What is this ? Will u help me to know about its peculiarities,its prices and its comparison to a laptop? I will b very thankful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.220.215.13 ( talk) 14:44, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
I just got an iPod Touch, and I have read somewhere on Wikipedia that there is a way to download a static version of Wikipedia without pictures onto the iPod. Yes, the Touch gets Internet, but I'm not always around Wi-Fi, so it would be nice to have this even though it takes up tons of space. Where might this program be? Thanks, Reywas92 Talk 20:29, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
Darn, but thanks. Though I'm pretty sure that it was some article in the Wikipedia namespace. I definitely don't remember seeing that website, and it worked with more versions of iPods, so there must be a few different versions of this out there. Reywas92 Talk 02:30, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Okay, I've done some Googling and I think this Lifehacker article may be what you're looking for. You'll need to jailbreak your iPod, though, and if you've got the new 2nd gen Touch, you'll be out of luck, as these can't be jailbroken just yet. -- CalusReyma ( talk) 09:29, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Ok, ok, I know this is a little bit like starting a post entitled "Which is better, Macs or PCs?" but hopefully I'll get a couple ideas and can ignore the flame from everyone else... ;)
I'm a programmer (Java, some web technologies) working mostly on a Mac, and doing a fair but of command-line unixy stuff with it. I'm thinking of installing a Linux ditro on my Parallels in order to improve my unix experience. Which distribution would you recommend (e.g. Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, etc), both in terms of real-world practicality, and it terms of ease of installing? Any thoughts welcome!
Thanks! — Sam 20:59, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
