I need to change my server's resolution to 1280x1024@60Hz for the KVM switch lcd screen to display my server's local console screen
(**the KVM switch (NLS lcd monitor) is connected through cable to 4 servers and is not registering the correct resolution, so the screen is not coming up on the lcd screen)
I am pretty sure this is b/c of the resolution settings on my UNIX servers.
So I am pretty sure I am going to have to use fbconfig/ffbconfig or something like that but I am not sure of the exact syntax, any help would be tremendously appreciated.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!!
Who has manually changed the resolution of the UNIX box (Solaris).?
Depending on the hardware, it should be something like
fbconfig -res 1280x1024x60
or the same with m64config, afbconfig
It may require a reboot, btw

Why do so many people have abysmal English skills?
From error ridden syntax to atrocious sentence structure, and nonexistent punctuation, it's just horrible to try and read some of it! I was always just a B and C student, but I did try and garner a working knowledge and reasonable command of my native language. Everyone is going to make a typo here and there, but what we see on these boards is inexcusable. And you have no idea how much this will haunt you when seeking employment, considering the person doing the hiring will have you pegged immediately as a stock boy or cashier instead of Manager trainee!
Why do so many people have abysmal English skills?
Because the American educational system is focused on passing the tests, not in actually thinking or learning.

It's really a shame. I agree with you that these people (whether they are adults, teens, or children) had better get it together and learn basic English because it really will haunt them in their professional lives. In my profession, making even one typo in a report is such bad form that I could lose a client over it. And it would be embarrassing as hell.
I also believe it shows an enormous lack of respect for the readers of the forum. And this problem is everywhere on the Internets. It seems to be particularly egregious here, but I've seen it on all kinds of websites. My pet peeve is "loose" weight instead of "lose" weight. That one makes my head explode every time.
Great comments and question, by the way.

Does anyone know how to make a Windows 2000 boot disk that opens a command prompt instead of loading Windows?
Here's the situation: I have a command-line utility that I need to use to upgrade the BIOS on my motherboard. It needs to run from a bootable floppy diskette. An emergency boot disk won't work. Making a recovery disk doesn't work either. The closest I've gotten thus far...
1) Format the floppy.
2) Copy the following hidden system files from C:\ to A:\
ntldr
NTDETECT.COM
boot.ini
The trouble seems to be in the boot.ini file, which is of course pointing to the Windows installation on the hard drive. I'm guessing I'll need an additional file at least (the command line processor) and the proper syntax in boot.ini to get it working.
Does anyone know how to make a Windows 2000 boot disk that opens a command prompt instead of loading Windows?
you cant make a simple boot disk for windows 2000 or xp because the hard drive format is NTFS, but to just flash your bios you don't need to access your hard drive so you can use any windows 98 boot disk
you should be able to download a boot disk from http://www.bootdisk.com/
id recommend the driver free boot disk for bios flashing
create the boot disk floppy and then add your flash program and bios image to the floppy and reboot, make sure you change the boot order in your bios to check the floppy first.
alternately you may find a boot CD somewhere online or you can create a bootable CD from some CD writing programs and add your flash program to that.
but id recommend you stick with the driver free boot floppy from http://www.bootdisk.com/
good luck
hope this helps

Bid'ah - The Clarification?
A Bid'ah is that innovation which came into practice after the blessed age of the Prophet (salall laahu alaihi wasallam) be it worldly or religious. Some people say that to celebrate the Meelad, Esaale Sawaab for the deceased, making Fateha after the Janazah Salaah, etc. to be Bid�ah and in some cases as Haraam. They say these were not practised in the time of Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).We will now list a few things, which were not during the blessed age of Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) but were innovated afterwards and made part and parcel of religion:
a. Construction of Madressas,
b. Dividing the Quran into thirty parts,
c. Marking the expressions on the Holy Quran, viz. Fatha, Kasra, Dhamma (Zabbar, Zer, Pesh),
d. Printing the Holy Book and other religious books in the press,
e. The compilation of I'lm-e-Hadith and Fiqh,
f. To put down the Holy verses of the Quran in paper form, etc.
All the above-mentioned things are Bid�ahs, which were not in the blessed age of Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) but are considered religious. Those who say that Moulood and Fateha are Bid�ahs because those religious affairs which were innovated after the blessed age of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) should have a look at the above list and show us which of these two things are not included in the religion and which was there in the blessed age?
The Hadith: "Whosoever invents a new thing in our religion is rejected" means that whoever innovates a new belief or whoever innovates a new action which is in contradiction with the Kitaab and Sunnah will be rejected.
The books "Shaami" and "Mirqaat" say that Bid'ah is of five categories, viz. Ja'iz, Waajib, Mustahab, Makruh and Haraam.
We will have to omit many things which are known to be part and parcel of religion but were innovated after the blessed age of Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) such as the Masaa'ils of Fiqh, the four Madhabs, viz. Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali; the Tariqas, viz. Nashbandiyya, Qaderiyya, Chistiyya, Shuhruwardiyya, Alwiyya, etc.; the denominations of the Sufiyya-Ikraam; the categorisation of the six Kalimahs, Imaan-e-Mujmal, Imaan-e-Mufassal; the division of the Holy Quran into 30 parts; the compilation of the knowledge of Hadith and the categorisation of Hadiths, i.e. Sahih, Da'if, Hassan, Mu'addal, etc.; the construction of madressa and arrangement of their syllabuses; and to set a course for achieving the degree of Aalim and Qari and to present certificates on the completion of the course to the respective students, etc. will all be Haraam if we accept a statement that all Bid'ahs are Haraam and there is nothing like Bid'ah-e-Hasana. In fact, there is no act of Shari'ah or Tariqah, which is void of Bid'ah. Then how much will you try to avoid such a Haraam (as you say) when it is surrounding your whole religious activity. So, therefore, all Bid'ahs are not Haraam but only those, which contradict with the Kitaab and Sunnah.
Bid'ah Amali (innovated action) is classified in two:-
Bid'ah-e-Hasana (praiseworthy innovation) is that action which does not contradict with the Holy Quran and the Sunnah and was brought into practice after the time of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) for example, to construct religious institutions, to print the Holy Quran in the press, to hold gatherings of Meelad, to eat nice food and to put on attractive clothes, etc. Bid'ah-e-Hasana is not only permissible (Ja'iz) but at times it can be appreciable (Mustahab) and even essential (Waajib).
Bid'ah-e-Sai'iyya (offensive innovation) is that action which was not in practice in the blessed age of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) and which contradicts with the Holy Quran and the Sunnah, for example to say the Khutba of Eid or Jum'a in a language other than Arabic, etc. Bid'ah-e-Sai'iyya can be Makruh Tanzhi or Makruh Tahrimi or even Haraam.
Bid'ah-e-Hasana is further divided into three categories:-
Bid'ah Ja'iz (Permissable): is that action which the Shari'ah prohibited and which is done without expecting any reward or punishment for it. For example, partaking in a variety of delicious dishes or wearing nice and attractive clothing, etc.
Bid'ah Mustahab (appreciable): is that act which is done with an anticipation for earning reward, for example to celebrate the Meelad-un-Nabi (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) or to pray Fateha for the souls of deceased Muslims, etc. If is is done with the intention of gaining rewards, he will gain reward for it, and if one does not do it, he will not be reprimanded for it.
Bid'ah Waajib (essential): is that new action which has not been prohibited in the Shari'ah but to omit it will lead to critical complications in the religion. For example, to put the expressions (I'raab) in the Holy Quran such as Fatha, Kasra and Dhumma, to constuct madressas for teaching the Holy Quran and Hadith and to learn and teach the knowledge of nahv (Arabic syntax), etc. are all Bid'ah Wajib.
Offensive Bid'ah is categorised in two:-
Bid'ah Makruh (abominable): is that innovation the performing of which will lead to the annihilation of a Sunnah. If a Ghaiyr Mu'akkidah Sunnah is annihilated then it is Makruh Tanzihi and if a Mu'akkidah Sunnah is annihilated then it is Makruh Tahrimi. For example, to pray the Eid Khutba in a language other than Arabic, etc. is Bid'ah Makruh Tahrimi.
Bid'ah Haraam (prohibited): is that innovation which will lead to the annihilation of a Waajib. For example, the introductions of beliefs which are in contradiction with the Kitab and Sunnah, such as Qadriyya who believe, that man has got all the power to do whatever he wishes, etc.
The first volume of "Ashi'atul Lam'aat" (Babul I'tisaam) says about Bid'ah Hasana and Sai'iyya under the Hadith: "Every Bid'ah is a delusion (misleading)" that any Bid�ah which is in accordance with the principles, the canons of Islamic Law and the Sunnah and has been deduced analogically from the Quran or Sunnah (through Qiyas) is Bid'ah-e-Hasana and that which is in contrasts to the above definition is Bid'ah-e-Sai'iyya.
A Hadith in "Miskhat" under Babul-I'lm says: "He who sets a good precedent in Islam, there is reward for him for this (act of goodness) and a reward for him also who acts according to it subsequently, without any deduction from their rewards and he who sets in Islam an evil precedent there is upon him the burden of that, and the burden of him also who acts upon it subsequently, without any deduction from their burdens." From this Hadith we see that to introduce a nice way in Islam which is in accordance with the Holy Quran and Sunnah will induce rewards and to do vice versa will provoke punishment.
In the preface of the book, "Shaami", under Faza'il Imam A'zam Abu Hanifa (alaihir rahmah), it is written: "The scholars say these Ahadith are the canons of Islam and that is whoever introduces a bad way in Islam, he will get the burden of the sins of all those who act upon it and whoever introduces a nice way he will get reward of all those who act upon it till the Day of Judgement".

i did not finish it all, don't want to be disrespectful, but was is your Q.
oh OK, then yes you are right but some things people do are bidah, like some people when a member of there family dies they do weird stuff,like scream and pull their hair...etc.
they should stop.
edit, marhama i did not say crying is a bidah did you read my answer were does it say that crying is bidah, don't put word that are not there. what i meant is those people that go crazy and start pulling their hair , i did not mention crying . everyone cries and has feeling .
Reply:Red Tullip,
I don't think cry and scream for death of family members is always bid'ah.
It can be bid'ah if they think screaming and pulling hairs can be Ibadah.
But screaming because hysteric coz losing people that they love is not bid'ah.
I did cry a lot when my best friend passed away, coz extremely sad. how could it be bid'ah?
(((red.tullip)))
upss sorry
I just want to give stressing to what bidah means for me,
when someone doin something that Prophet Muhmmad didn't ever do it, but (s)he said what they do is Ibada, then that's bid'ah, so I still in my opinion, that what you said (screaming and pulling hair) can be bid'ah and can be not bid'ah

Reply:There is a world of difference between constructing a school and reciting fatiha for the dead. By the way 'madrassa'...there were no schools during the time of the prophet (pbuh)?????....come on.
You really didn't define bidah correctly in your first sentence anyhow. To say that it is simply something that came into practice after the age of the prophet (pbuh) is wrong. Bidah in religion is something that people have added to the religion. Printing a book is not adding something to the religion. Compiling the works of scholars is not adding something to the religion. Building a school, which DID exist during the time of the prophet (pbuh) is not adding something to the religion. Don't have to say anything about putting Quran on paper because that was done during the time of the prophet (pbuh). Using accent marks in the Quran is not adding something or changing any part of the religion. The accent marks are purely for proper pronunciation.
For the ignorant who claim other peoples ignorance, get educated.
a. Construction of Madressas,
b. Dividing the Quran into thirty parts,
c. Marking the expressions on the Holy Quran, viz. Fatha, Kasra, Dhamma (Zabbar, Zer, Pesh),
d. Printing the Holy Book and other religious books in the press,
e. The compilation of I'lm-e-Hadith and Fiqh,

Using accent marks in the Quran is not adding something or changing any part of the religion. The accent marks are purely for proper pronunciation.
For the ignorant who claim other peoples ignorance, get educated.
