In my attempts to break my "heroin addiction" to Windows, I have a
question for everyone... one of the last few Windows applications I have not
been able to replace is a slick little program called VirtualDub. I use it
on a regular basis to re-encode episodes of Enterprise that I download each
week. The best quality episodes are MPEG encoded at about 450MB each. I can
use VirtualDub to re-encode to AVI using the latest DivX and get a file size
of about 200MB - that means I can cram 3 episodes onto one CDROM instead of 1
per CDROM if I leave them alone.
So, the question is, are there are any Linux apps that can do this?
I haven't discovered anything yet. BCast2000 is targetted (as far as I can
tell) at building a video.. stitching audio tracks to video etc. All I want
it an app that will simply re-encode a video to a DivX4.x codec.... haven't
found one that did it either reliably, or at all. Any suggestions would be
more than welcome.

This is Linux country. If you listen carefully, you can hear Windows reboot...
OK, in KDE, I need to know how to get 2 applets (?) bak on my taskbar:
1. The KPPP dialer that looks like a electrical plug, and
2. The Desktop listing Desktops 1-4 (or however many you use).
Lost them playing around. (Blush)

Hello...
I have a Castlewood Orb USB 2.2 gig removable hard drive. It uses
a USB interface to connect to the computer. They provide a SCSI to USB
adapter
with the particular one I purchased. It is predominantly used with M$
Winders.
I would like to use mine with SuSE Linux 7.2. Has anyone done this? If so,
how did you accomplish it? The PIII computer I use for my amateur radio
TCPIP gateway has the standard pair of built-in USB ports. Is there any
possibilty
of accessing the Orb drive through them? Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Gary
I'm trying to back up my home directory using the following command from the
/home directory:
tar cvf /backup/rcordell.tar rcordell
tar gets most of the way through, then at the same place every time it stops
with the error message:
Exit delayed due to error
I can't seem to find out why it is failing; it isn't lack of disk space or
anything like that. Does anyone have an idea what might be happening? Is
there a better method to backing up a branch of a directory tree?
Thanks,
Ron Cordell
FYI I figure it out, the following worked:
find /log/ -type f -mtime +30 -name "*log.gz" -exec cp -p {} . \;

I believe you must implement the Enterprise solution to get the Notes platform
with SuSE Linux:

Hi: I installed a Linux box as a router.
All right with that, but now I can't use shh to connect the machine
on the "other side"
Before the network split I use to connect to that machine via ssh.
Know somebody why?
It seems that ssh only accepts local subnet by default but I can't
find where to change it.
Thank you,
Martin.
Dumb newbie questions:
1. How do I add a directory to my path for executing commands, i.e. inetd
start, which is in /usr/sbin ?
2. Where do I add this comand so it runs upon startup?
