Fw: CONFIRMATION OF SXSW FILM BOOTH # & EXHIBITOR KIT INF0

Here is wahs SXSW sent me.

Anyone who is to man the booth must get me your names soon so i can send them to sxsw.  This is needed to get your
passes.  We are going to try to get the passes upgraded as high as possible, so get in soon or you may have just
convention access.

We still need 10x10 carpet and sponsors for Electricity and connectivity.

Hit your bosses up.  Sometthing like 70 bucks for all for electric and i have not gotten the blurb on cost of
internet access.

We prolly need a coffee and/or beer sig meeting to get all the details set.
Any opinions as to a good time?

David Rose is setting up an after films party the firsty night at Lovejoys, I believe, so we can smooze with 
the gurus.

{David, feel free to add to this or correct my bonehead.}

Feel free to go to SXSW.com for details of the fun we will be having.  

Dan, can we not get any lnx-bbc cds?  We will be making tomsrtbts to give away.

Does anyone have any multimedia apps we can show off?

Lets give the world a taste of Open Source World Liberation.

That is all.

Fear not, happy camper. If we're talking a *nix box, then you can use
The Coroner's Toolkit to grab "deleted" files from the drive; even
reconstruct some semi-overwritten ones! Get your free *NIX forensic
tools at:

It's Dan Farmer (SATAN) and Wietse Venema's (TCP-Wrappers & Postfix)
wonderful tool for getting back those deleted Microsoft

robert love's preempt patch

Is anyone using this patch? What are your experiences with it? As far as
I'm concerned, it's the best patch ever... bless you Rob. Having used it
constanly for months, I can't bare to use linux without it -- my mouse
and XMMS don't lag during a heavy Gentoo emerge (think: configure/make)
and GUI applications are *far* more responsive under the same kind of
load. I highly recommend it.

Nice to see Linus merged it into 2.5.4-pre6 too.

tradeshow access and conference access are two different things. those
passes you handed out are good for 1 day/person access to the tradeshow.
the conference (panels/etc) costs $. see http://sxsw.com/attend/ for
conference prices.

Re: sql question

This is a pretty neat tool...

Newbie question...I loaded up an existing database my project is using 
and it doesn't seem to have any relationships  (all the tables are by 
themselves).  What part of the database schema or what ever describes 
these relationships?  I am using an Oracle database with several tables 
being related by a common transaction_id but it doesn't seem to identify 
this relationship...Is there something that was not identified in the 
control files used to create the database originally?

Since I don't have an extensive DB background, maybe this is my 
inexperiences showing up.  I also didn't develope the db and have been 
told we don't use any relationships like we should because it was based 
on an original database where relational database functionality was not 
originally available (old verion of oracle or something like that).

Sounds like the ole "pointer-to" design pattern in your db. That's when
you have an id in two or more tables and it serves as a "pointer" from a
row in one table to one or more rows in another. There's no explicit
referential integrity with that approach, usually that's left to the
developer's discipline and the application using the db.

eg.

  create table band ( 
    id integer primary key, 
    name varchar(20) 
  );

  create table mp3s ( 
    integer band_id, 
    title varchar(30) 
  );

Here, I could delete rows from band, but that wouldn't by default remove
the band's mp3s since there's no explicit ref. integrity (sometimes this
is the behaviour you want though -- but it still should be defined
explicitly).

*un*dial-on-demand?

I just got a box setup with dial-on-demand (yea for me).  I start up
mail, browser, whatever, & the modem dials out from the box I have set
as the default gateway.

Is there such a thing as hangup-on-demand? I could shorten the timeout,
but I'd rather be able to just disconnect (and I have the misfortune of
having a modem with no power switch).

Now that I know how to do it, perhaps I'll just go back to my original
setup until I have a dedicated line.

I used the demand on the dialer but I again went to "ezppp" as my
dialer.  Try "wvdail" or "ezppp".

The demand dialer didn't seem to be very handy due to hangups then the
time delay on dialing back in.
