The Screen Savers Show Notes for Thursday, February 15th,
2001...
* Prevent buffer underruns when you burn CDs
Ben from Lacrosse, WI burns a lot of CDs and he keep
getting buffer underruns. We covered this in detail here:
http://tm0.com/sbct.cgi?s=117655167&i=304463&d=1044602
We recommend getting a BURNProof drive. That eliminates
buffer underrun entirely. If you don't have BURNProof,
make sure you dedicate your machine to burning - get up
and walk away while it's recording.
We also recommend Nero software for burning - it's the
best. Try it free for a month or so from
http://www.nero.com
* Telnet to your Linux Box
Mark from Somerworth, NH has had some problems with
telnetting to his Linux box from Windows. The Telnet
server never says hello. Mark was right, there's no
specific HOW-TO on Telnet, but the telnet man page should
give you all the info you need on properly configuring the
daemon.
Telnet's not secure anyway, so we recommend SSH instead.
You can read all about it and get a copy (if your distro
doesn't come with one) at http://www.ssh.org/
* The synergy of multiple drives
Jason from Providence, RI has a bunch of hard drives and
wants them to look like one drive to his computer. You can
do that with RAID 0, of course, but it's best to have
identical drives and no IDE RAID card supports more than 4
drives at once.
Windows 2000 offers something called Dynamic Volume
Managment that will let you combine multiple drives into a
single virtual drive. Read all about it at
http://www.microsoft.com/DirectAccess/PartnerGuide/smallbusiness/techread/volume.asp
* "Palm" your InfoFiction
Mike from Oceanside, CA is a 12 year old with taste. He
wants to play the classic text adventure Zork on his
Visor. A great match. We have an article about Zorking
your Palm at
http://tm0.com/sbct.cgi?s=117655167&i=304463&d=1044606
We recommend the the Frotz interpreter at
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Way/2367/.
You can find Zork and 90 other adventures at the Palm
Pilot Entertainment Zone,
http://www.fortunecity.com/underworld/rpg/22/
And for those of you who want to try those classic Infocom
adventures online try http://www.xs4all.nl/~pot/infocom/
You can play the first text adventure, Colossal Cave,
(based on Crowther and Woods Adventure) here:
http://www.pond.com/~russotto/zplet/ifol.html
* IDE Controllers
Ted from Nacogdoches, TX has maxed out his IDE connectors.
He wonders if adding a PCI card IDE controller will be
slower. Patrick says it may even be faster, if it's a
better controller. We recommend the Promise controllers,
http://www.promise.com.
That's it from the new set of the old show. Patrick took
off with Commander Taco and Hemos, so this is your
faithful scribe, Leo, signing off!
