Getting the most from GNU Screen
Via gnu.org
Screen is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical terminal between several processes, typically interactive shells. Each virtual terminal provides the functions of the DEC VT100 terminal and, in addition, several control functions from the ANSI X3.64 (ISO 6429) and ISO 2022 standards (e.g., insert/delete line and support for multiple character sets). There is a scrollback history buffer for each virtual terminal and a copy-and-paste mechanism that allows the user to move text regions between windows.
Google Chrome PDF reader
With this effort, we will accomplish the following:
PDF files will render as seamlessly as HTML web pages, and basic interactions will be no different than the same interactions with web pages (for example, zooming and searching will work as users expect). PDF rendering quality is still a work in progress, and we will improve it substantially before releasing it to the beta and stable channels. To further protect users, PDF functionality will be contained within the security sandbox Chrome uses for web page rendering.
Identification and resolution of Volume Shadow Copy Service errors
Identification and resolution of Volume Shadow Copy Service errors Identify the problem writers using vssadmin
vssadmin syntax:
vssadmin list {shadows [/set= [shadow copy set GUID]] | writers | providers} vssadmin delete shadows /for=<ForVolumeSpec> [/oldest | /all | /shadow=<ShadowID>] [/quiet]`</pre> Let’s start off by checking the state of the VSS Writers
