Unknown Files in /tmp
by Mark Sargent 01 Feb '06

01 Feb '06

Hi All, 2 days ago, I used skype on my laptop, which hadn't seen the net before then. I successfully spoke with my mother, and had no problems. Yesterday, I had what I believe was an unauthorized access to my laptop, so, I changed all passwds on my smoothwall box, and also put the local host onto a new subnet. Today, I experienced some weirdness with skype, where, I could hear/be heard, but, the ring tone for calling/receiving had stopped. I most certainly made no changes to skype's configuration. Today, whilst snooping around my laptop, for numerous things, I came upon some files in /tmp, which I don't recognize, [root@localhost tmp]# ls keyring-XphDRC gconfd-racket mapping-racket ssh-qONcvE2869 gconfd-root orbit-racket xses-racket.bWVjc5 keyring-P5i6Xo orbit-root below is just some content from "xses-racket.bWVjc5" (nautilus:2955): Eel-WARNING **: Error starting command ''/tmp/keyring-XphDRC/socket'': Failed to execute child process "/tmp/keyring-XphDRC/socket" (Permission denied) I ran a soundcard test today, could that be it? This is all probably not related, but, I find it odd. What do you think? I googled for info on the filenames, but, found nothing. Cheers. Mark Sargent.

agp video card direction
by Robert Hanson 31 Jan '06

31 Jan '06

greetings i am thinking of purchasing a 256 meg or larger AGP video card my current card is a 128 meg nvidia geforce fx 5200 and i have a viewsonic vp201s lcd monitor are their larger memory AGP cards worth buying? i have no idea it will be for serious CentOS and Win XP integration and testing and eventually production issues... XP is a necessary support issue in these circumstances since i am not a gamer (used to duke nukem a long time ago etc) i am mainly looking for the best stability and quality price performance etc blah i hope to do anything and everything with this card eventually im willing to spend an extra few bucks to "do right" in this purchase. can everyone chime in on nvidia vrs ati and all that please? thanks in advance! - rh -- Robert Hanson - Abba Communications Computer & Internet Services (509) 624-7159 - www.abbacomm.net
