I originally went with Gentoo because well gentoo pwns but then i decided to try Debian.

Wow.

Atleast in Debian I can go into the terminal and type 'apt-get install whatever_program' and have it installed...

Fluxbox runs funky in Debian...I'm installing Gentoo, screw debian.

Or Linux or Mac jokes. Please tell us some.

 

You want a nanny? Get a Windows

Want a bitch? Get Linux

Want a retard? Get Mac OS X

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL :)

My intention was to Install XP then Linux F7 and use VMware to dualboot.

Well i cannot get XP to even start to install.

I open the XP folder i downloaded and use WINE to start an executable...it works but when i click "Install Windows XP"

Wine just crashes, I think.

Is there a really good emulator out there?

Or is there a way i can force my system to boot from this disc? (i burned a CD-RW and a DVD-RW of this image)

When I place the disc in and restart i get a prompt with the DVD to boot from CD and it does nothing after i press enter.

But when i place the CD in i get no prompt?

Please help

Ok this is what is going on...i am downloading windows XP (I KNOW IT SUCKS) and i see this

PEERS SEEDS

0(1243) 0(8765)

0(14) 0(60)

so on....yeah i made up those numbers but in F7 i hav NEVER had any seed connect!?!?!?

WHY AREN't I GETTING ANY SEEDS TO CONNECT TO ME!?!?!?!?!?!

I install F7 and now i just want to get Beryl to work.

My secondary objectives are to find a good torrent of XP, when i use azereus i will see things like " peers 0(125) seeds 0(123)" So i am like !!? i cannot download torrents? huh why wont they connect? So i need help on that too.

But back to beryl, I install,run and WHITE SCREEN! HUH????? Yeah i get a solid white screen!!!

I am using a Diamond ATI Stealth X1550 256mb graphics card does Linux support this?

Quick update: While in this white screen i screwed with random buttons and mouse motions and it is actually a 3d hexagon i think. On all faces it is white with any shadow effects and on the top and bottom it is black the the Fedora Emblem in the center. Please help.

Here's a nice screen of my new Gentoo hardened install. With some time and patience to get everything working right. Background image was acquired at babene.ru.

Hello everyone,

 

I've got myself Ubuntu box and I like it, but there are some problems that I can't solve. I've got myself an online web based text game and people like to do tricks with my server, at first they've tried to bruteforce my sshd, but I've found a solution for that. However they're now flooding/dosing and I know what more to my server. Okay so the problem is like this: I have 30gb/month of bandwith (I know that's not much, but hey, I don't have money to rent a dedicated server) and that amount was quite enough for my game last months. Still, this month is too weird, I exceeded my bandwith in 15 days, when I usually did that in 29 or something. I tried to tune my apache and I almost did it. Had myself mod-security, but somehow I didn't manage to setup od-dosevasive even though I've tried your tuts and even apt-get that mod. Can't remember where but I've read about some kind of this attack (ye, I'm way new to linux)
