Comment on Fixing netbeans in ubuntu by leterhaar

If this still doesn’t work, you might try to associate .js files manuall with javascript. To do this, go to Tools – Options – Files and change the filetype associated with .js to ‘text/javascript’. Fixed my problem (the solution above didn’t).

Comment on Firefox seems to load content in noscript tags when javascript is enabled by Yves

Here’s why: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=342299

It only happens in XHTML mode because Firefox needs to parse the whole document tree. In HTML mode it won’t load stuff from . Don’t ask me why it needs to actually load the resources it parsed, but it does. And they won’t fix it.

Comment on Using an SSD as a cache device by Will Smith

Will Smith — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 04:31:04 +0000

I am running flashcache on my home server, 60Gb of SSD caching a RAID5 array of 3x2Tb hard disks.

Ubuntu server, 2.6.38-11.

Works well in write-through.

In write back the write-backs never seem to happen, even if I take the maximum dirty seconds parameter right down. Then when I rebooted my machine, kernel panic. Haven’t isolated it further.

Moral : stick to write-through for the moment.

Comment on shaping p2p traffic by Tyler Wagner

Tyler Wagner — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 15:14:49 +0000

I’ve got a router handing about 120 mbit of traffic which is still using ipp2p on Ubuntu 8.04, and I’m looking to upgrade both the OS and the DPI solution. I’m building the opendpi iptables module now. I’d love to hear what you’ve learned. Contact me privately if you don’t want to use your blog for this.

Thanks,
Tyler
