For example, on one results page it said, "No search results for 'my search term'." THAT was the match! Yeah, I noticed that the other day. I was looking for something, and I tried Wikipedia first. K'Pedia had no results, so I went to Google, and one of the listed results was Wikipedia, with the same "we ain't got nothin'" message as the preview text.

Mike Ryan Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 It would be more challenging. It forces the user to have to dream, concept, design, finalize, and produce. Those are the steps necessary to make any great peice of work, and is the reason users like Stephan always win these contests. They dream and then make conceptual plans on how to design the peice. They then set down and finalize, adding the final touches and produce the product with quality descriptions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HITMAN-X- Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Ahhhhhh what is with this wifi card and Fedora 8. Geez it sees the router and the network yet it does not want to connect to the network. Connect by a Cat 6 cable right to the NIC from the router and there 222 updates (no joke that the number of updateds). So it updates and then asks to do it reboot. Reboots and now it hangs on the wifi card when trying to read it and wont let me get pass the screen to get into the settings. Aga now I got to rip the wifi card out again and boot up with out it and check settings. Man I should just format and go back to Fedora 7 as 8 has been notthing but problems. I only need the linux server to do testing and to keep skype running when I go to bed so voicemail wont kick in and charge people here in canada for calling my NY number. ..... For get this I will go back to this later. For now I will go play with IIS. Quote DEXTUT.COM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HITMAN-X- Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 this is the 1st time I had problems with WiFi in linux. I really think it Fedora 8 as they got rid of some of the network managers. I been to the forums to and there seems to be a few people with the very same problem and no anwsers to fix it. Pryo I seen your post about FTP. You trying to setup your own FTP server from your system ? I was doing FTP all day in my IIS class on 3 window servers and am about to go and play with IIS on this computer so if you need help with something just ask I may be able to help. Other then that if you are having problems connecting to someone else FTP then there notthing I can do as it would be on there end. Unless you just can't connect. Then I tell you to turn of the firewall and do a connect to make sure it not being block. Windows is funny like that as I found out sometimes the firewall likes to block the FTP and other times it lets it connect.

Mike Ryan Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Leave the port number blank. Always works with me! Whenever I have a hard time trying to connect to something else, it is usually because they have the wrong information about the port number. So, leave that spot blank and let Filezilla deal with it from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an easy time using some online tools. Belkin Routers simply suck and I was getting constant disconnects on XBL so I had to move everything to static. Took me about five minutes.

Yata Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I can't get my real DNS servers. My ISP masks them. So I have to call them tomorrow and go "OMFGWTFMONKEYS!" until they hand them over. When I say "OMFGWTFMONKEYS", I'm referring to the hour I'm going to spend on hold.

Mike Ryan Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Sure it will. You have to set up your IP Adress from auto configuring your DNS and enter in the DNS Servers for OpenDNS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
