Hype for the Future 45G: CWM → Moving Windows

Using the cwm window manager from video 45F, novaTopFlex shall attempt to open the xclock application for demonstration 45G. 45G is supposed to refer to the window movement as well as management, with the following keyboard shortcuts to be demonstrated: Meta-h, Meta-j, Meta-k, and Meta-l to move the xclock window by small amounts Meta-H, Meta-J, Meta-K, and Meta-L to move the xclock window by large amounts

Hype for the Future 45F: CWM → The Basics

Prior to beginning the video, novaTopFlex shall launch a 540x960 VNC server session on port 5901, using TigerVNC and the cwm startup file. The window manager shall be tested as follows: Press Control-Meta-Return to spawn a new terminal. Press Meta-Return to hide the terminal window. Press Meta-Slash to search for windows. Press Meta-Down to lower the current window. Press Meta-Up to raise the current window. Press Control-Meta-x to close the terminal window. To locate the video stream, […]

Hype for the Future 43J: How Many Commands are in a Linux System?

Linux is not an operating system by nature of being a software kernel. However, numerous distributions have been derived from the kernel, resulting in hundreds to thousands of clearly distinct operating systems. Every distinct distribution has unique characteristics, yet in most cases even the characteristics themselves are not clearly defined. With these facts, one can expect the vast majority of Linux systems to have at least one thousand separate shell commands, total, with BSD- and […]

Hype for the Future 43I: Programming Style

When compiling most software packages from source, the GNU Three-Step Method is as follows: ./autogen.sh # With this command, four steps, if necessary ./configure make sudo make install The configuration commands may also contain parameters and options, depending on the specific source and related content type. With the Linux kernel, the command to `make` can also be utilized with different configuration utilities, each with clearly different options as well, as in graphical and terminal […]

Well, good news and bad news. The power supply is solid at 3.3V, that's not it.

And VTS is generally showing no issues, memory and CPU seem to be testing fine.

So why is dtwm crashing for no apparent reason all the time... I did have a bunch of stability problems earlier with this install, maybe I just have some data corruption?

The crash is apparently in `sdtperfmeter` (which is on a dtwm panel) presumably that takes out dtwm?

Maybe I need to reinstall...

Someone's old Sun SPARCstation IPX fan page I ran across today, randomly.

I love old pages like this.

Well my OTHER #sun ultra 10 just died. I now have two machines that will power on, but the power LED stays off, and no display ever comes.

Before that started to happen it complained about the IDPROM contents being wrong, so I followed a guide to re-create the contents and allow my ultra 10 to boot. The "power led won't come on" problem started then.

Does anyone know how to get this unstuck? I need at least one to work for my #sunpci #DOScember video!
