128KB RAM too... :~ M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

An engineer is a person who is an expert on getting things not to work. (Either by making his/her own modifications to it, or by constructing extreme testbed situations that never occurs in real life.)

If you are really getting the "Failed - No File." error in the Chrome browser then the open source code I linked shows exactly what causes the error. As far as I can tell there are no other possibilities.

subservient partitioning works.

Lots of 'alternative' FOSS solutions - e.g. in sound and video compression - have ripped off a lot of costly development work done by commercial companies, repackaged it and made a few cosmetic changes to make it appear as their own development, and tried to sell it to the world. There certainly are cases where FOSS people have managed to create very good software. One prominent example: The LAME encoder started as a mediocre, simplistic MP3 encoder, its quality was far behind commercial ones. But licensing fees for commercial versions were so horrible that a lot of users rather put resources into improving LAME, and it gradually improved to a level where it became the standard that other MP3 encoders were measured up against. -- But that was after several competing FOSS formats built on the same basic principles as MP3 had failed in the market. "If you can't beat them, join them". On the desktop user interface side, FOSS guys have 'always' let other companies do expensive, lengthy usability studies. Then FOSS comes lurking behind to pick up the conclusion from the commercial studies. Smartphone UI is different - but can hardly be said to be developed by FOSS guys, even though there are lots of free apps. (Not that often open source, though.)

yeah, all hail IBM. Not a single IBM employee should have been surprised. I worked on AIX workstations in the early 2000s writing device drivers. It was interesting work and although IBM had gutted their engineering ranks for AIX even back then, they left all of their technical information up.

Hmm, I guess there was no monitor connected to the Mac. I know when I remote connected to a Windows PC without a monitor it caused issues with the remote software. If you need to go back to remote desktop software you could try a monitor emulator dongle (AKA HDMI dummy plug) to simulate a monitor in hardware. Software-wise I use TeamViewer - it is free for personal use. It can work over a local network, although that is not the default.

Not really my thing but with Windows 10 (before?) you can install a unix Bash shell. I think that comes with grep.

Funny thought, but I know that's not how this happened. I know the guy that made the decision. I could ask him, but he probably just went with NXP because he's used to them, and this is what they had. He's not up on the software end of things, so the fact that NXP doesn't do a good job (apparently) of providing source code to work with their hardware is almost certainly lost on him. It's not a big deal - if anything it means more work for me, and that's not always a bad thing - not when I'm already ahead anyway. :-D To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

@steve, Microsoft security: Quote: I don't trust 'security' products made by Microsoft. I understand that. Microsoft was not always that way. Would you please supply a list of Windows 7 updates and service packs that you use? Maybe use with modifications? ClamWin: I was reading on their site, Quote: Please note that ClamWin Free Antivirus does not include an on-access real-time scanner. You need to manually scan a file in order to detect a virus or spyware. For Windows 7, as you use ClamWin, having to manually scan each file seems time consuming. I use malwarebytes and just tell it to scan all drives on its own, and it does it. Please explain how one at a time is better for you, if it really is one at a time. BIOS vs UEFI: Staying with Windows 7, not going off topic; Did you install Windows 7 via BIOS or via UEFI? Whichever you did, how do you see this choice affecting your anti-WannaCry barrier(s)?

Thanks K5054, that was the clincher. To find the files I need, I had to perform the following: * State the Regex Engine as 'posix-extended' * Put the expression '.*' at the start of the filename as the files are treated as fully qualified filenames (file path & filename). Thus, I can now use the following: find /storage/log/vmware/ -type f -regextype posix-extended -regex '.*vpxd-svcs-access-.2022-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}.log.gz' And.... find /storage/log/vmware/ -type f -regextype posix-extended -regex '.*sps.log.[0-9]{2}.gz' | +-- JDMils | +-- VB6 +-- VB Dot Net |

I look forward to your apps created with your new Mac Mini.

thanks, Graeme ! alive yes; kicking limited by having to walk slowly on a walker, extreme weight loss. look forward to your article. cheers, Bill «The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled» Plutarch

Well, yeah, if you drop the 'm'. Now bring me a shrubbery. If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

Both.

Seriously? Is this meant as Joke Of The Year? As long as we ignore desktop users, and limit the survey to software developers - sure! A survey among truck drivers show that the number of vehicles running on diesel far outnumber those running on regular gasoline, right?

Jeremy Falcon wrote: if you install Debian directly without the GUI installer, using the ncurses installer? I'm just a guy who happens to tinker with Linux every once in a while, by booting from the ISO and following the prompts on the pretty wizard screens. If I have to get my hands more dirty than this, this early in the process, it's not likely to be a distribution I'll be spending time with. :-) I mean, I've installed plenty of Debian versions, and derivates of it, but "without the GUI installer, using the ncurses installer", is mostly gobbledygook to me. :-) I'm not that dedicates to it, and I'm happy for now with my solution... I do appreciate the suggestions however.

Linux isn't Microsoft. Happy now? :) Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows. -- 6079 Smith W.
