Vandalism

There's a guy by the name of "Linux" going around and blanking all the pages. Can you block him and clean it up please? Linux 19:02, June 7, 2007 (EDT)

why ? In most cases, your blanked pages are better than the blahblah before. And if you want to stop, I do not need to block you, just quit. --ThorstenStaerk 08:04, June 8, 2007 (EDT)

Proper Way To Start Sysadmin Page

What do you recommend as a starting point for sysadmin, just pick a topic and write it?

Comparison of Linux distributions

Hi ThorstenStaerk, it didn't seem to be significant to me, but I can see what you mean about the small details. Perhaps it would be better stated as something like "Includes many common shortcuts to save time (such as the 'll' command, etc.)" - Blackice 18:21, October 1, 2008 (UTC)

beep

i added the author's name to distinguish it from the normal system beep or 'printf("\a")'.

Couple questions:

first, is this the right place to ask you something? or is there a message link i'm missing

second, was removing the redirect for previous 'beep' -> 'Turn off system beep' ok? I included it in the new beep article in 'see also' because I thought it was still relevant.

i'm discovering there are a lot of programs out there called beep!

I'm new to wwiki so please let me know if i ever do anything taboo or whatever, i'm just killing time and helping where i can

Hi ThorstenStaerk: I know you've seen me darting around editing stuff, but now I'm running out of ideas, I'm not techy, and I'm a linux newbie. if you know of something, even boring stuff, that needs done, please offer suggestions and I'll get right to it. I kill time while at work, read, edit where I know a little about it, learning lots. have a good week -Scott

Thank you for the ideas, and thanks for having LiVES in your favorite list - I had not heard of that software - I compiled it from source with no problems and having fun editing some video now :]

How do you get a new page recognized?

A quick question:

How can you get a new file recognized as having been written? I ask because of the submission I made for File:Hosts is still showing up on the Most Wanted list.

TIA.

This seems to be a mediawiki bug. I stopped caring about this entry in the Most Wanted list after I wasted a lot of time on it. But thanks for your willingness to contribute --ThorstenStaerk 05:49, November 19, 2009 (UTC)
