Anyone here use Subversion or something like it to manage config files?

That's really kinda cool. I'll check it out some though I think it was a little too late. One thing I didn't mention was that there was an outside IT consultant who wanted to toss the whole works for a Windows server, so at least I convinced him to stay with *nix.
sigh

Do they even do zero copy sockets? Do they have sendfile()? Pretty sad that the only way for IIS to come close to smoking Apache at static content was for them to integrate parts of it into the kernel..

So in the processing of keeping up iTunes with my CD collection, I tried to rip Sunn O)))'s "Black One" about an hour ago. Now, my iBook won't spit the CD back out. It's little motor tries and tries and then gives up and re-loads the CD in iTunes. Fuck.
Already called AppleCare and they couldn't figure out anything. They just told me to either mail it in or take it to an Apple store. So, any tips before I make the long trek tomorrow morning? Sigh.

This CD won't fucking come out. Any other ideas before I take it to the shop?

I know this sounds completely stupid but...
I tried to insert one of those small CDs into my iBook's drive hoping it would pull it in an read it like a normal cd by now its stuck inside. Should I bring it into the Apple Store to have it taken out or is there a much easier way for me to get it out such as tweezers or something? I really don't want to have to leave it at the store as I need it for school but I need the drive working. Thank you for any assistance!
For the record, I was not stupid enough to try putting an abnormally sized CD in the drive.
Ok oddly my father told me to hold it up, turn it sideways with the drive opening facing down and shake it once. The cd popped enough out to grab onto it and take it completely out. lWOw problem solved quickly hehe.
But this did work. I held the computer sideways and tried to eject it while shaking and it came right out. Man.

Because ext3 is better for the job, obv. It's more reliable than reiserfs, performs much better (IMX) on large files, and doesn't have much that reiserfs doesn't have.
I might consider using XFS if I had a system on a very reliable UPS that I was sure wouldn't go down unexpectedly. Not otherwise, though - if a machine gets turned off with XFS filesystems mounted, you *will* lose data. What other serious alternatives on Linux are there?

I've had severe performance problems with concurrent access to large files on reiserfs filesystems - "severe" meaning "causing processes to hang in the D-state for several minutes". These problems vanished when I moved the relevant files over to an ext3 filesystem.
Now, that's not going to be a problem for everyone. Not many people have databases with files over 4G in size, like we do. Nevertheless, Reiserfs clearly isn't up to the job for *that* task, and it doesn't have any advantages over properly-optimised ext3 for general fileserving.
I'm not going to get into an experience fight, but I *do* know what I'm talking about when it comes to Linux sysadmin stuff. Just to let you know.
