Cisco 3750 Switch
by Kelly McLaughlin 23 Jan '08

23 Jan '08

I know we have some great minds in this group. I have a question for a network guru. When creating VLANs in a Cisco 3750 switch, can a single interface port belong to more than one VLAN ?? Thanks in advance for any responses :) . Kelly McLaughlin Tech Support Mokan Dial Inc. Louisburg, Ks. 913-837-2219 Ext. 16 No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Personally I just want something which prevents the need to look up the command line options every time I want to try something different. That would suffice for mencoder and transcode. However, the GUI was to be for my friend with his interest in Astrolog. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals?

Quick GUI frontend development for command line tools?
by Leo Mauler 20 Jan '08

20 Jan '08

There are a few command line applications for which I would like to have a GUI, or for which I've found a GUI I'm just not happy with. I use mencoder and transcode a bit but I'm not happy with the GUI frontends I've found for those applications. I also have a friend who is interested in the Astrolog astrology application but who is very unhappy with the command line interface, a potential Linux convert if a GUI can be discovered. KAstrolog has been out of development for so long I can't seem to compile the thing. I haven't written any code in ten years so I'm looking for something to create GUI Frontends without too much programming experience. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.

I wouldn't consider KDE bloatware myself, but I guess that is subjective. -- Fedora 7 : sipping some of that moonshine ( www.pembo13.com )

Virtualization
by Jack 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

Not being much of an Xen user, I thought I'd ask the list for input. I've been wanting to test out some newer applications and whatnot, but don't want to shake things up on my existing platform. I've considered multi-partitioning and multi-booting, but that would be disruptive in a multiuser set up as mine. I frequently have multiple X Sessions with different users running, so rebooting isn't a good solution. I've been wanting to load KDE4 and start experimenting on it and deciding when to roll it out to my "production" system. So I thought Xen or another virtual machine app might be a good choice. Does anyone currently run Xen, or are there others who have an opinion on how I can have a KDE4 desktop and other newest release software and latest kernel running on on of my X Sessions, and still have the stable production code on other's desktops? Separation of code is important here, but I want to be able to access the common /home and /root directories. Brian
