How Can I limit the bandwith of my internet connection on linux?

Hello, I have 2 Pc's, one for my brother, and the other for me. And well, always we have problems about downloads and lags when we are playing.
For example, when I download packages from pacman, it is done at maximum speed "eating" all connection, and my brother has lag.
Is there anyway to limit the bandwith that use my programs to half, for example? If maximum download speed is 100KB/s, pacman only can download 50 KB/s maximum.
Greetings

Depending on your router you may be able to set Ingress Rate Limit under QoS. Also have a look into trickle: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … s=0&SeB=nd

How can I limit the number of emails retained on my ipad air?

How can I limit the number of emails that are retained on my iPad Air? Because of legal requirements of a long-term project, I cannot permanently delete emails relating to that project from my ISP's mail server. My gmail account contains over 17,000 emails and, upon setting up my new iPad, and updating to ios 7.1.1, I now have all 17,000+ emails taking up space. I would like to limit the emails by count as I was able to do on my old iPad running ios 5.1.1 OR to retain them based on date range. I have not found any instructions on the support discussions or general iPad blogs that allow me to do that. Any way around this problem?
I also miss the 5.1.1 mail search feature that allowed me to narrow the search by from/to/subject/all. Does anyone know if that feature is available using some little-known ios 7.1.1 feature?
Thanks for your help.

If you have a decent mail provider like Microsoft Hotmail or Outlook.com mail it does.
If you have Gmail it does not. Quite right. Gmail is rubbish.

HT2729 I have limited space on my new ipad. How can I limit the number of songs from my itunes on my imac from going to my ipad when I connect the two?

I have limited space on my new ipad. How can I limit the number of songs from my itunes on my imac from going to my ipad when I connect the two?

you can do this by keeping the external hard drive connected and doing the following
-hold shift key down on computer while opening iTunes and a prompt will appear to choose a library
-select choose library, iTunes should bring up your explorer windows where you can search for the external HD
-after you find the external HD find the iTunes folder you just copied to it
-after opening the iTunes folder look for the file that says iTunes library.itl or if you can't see that extenstion just look for a document looking thing in the iTunes folder that shows up as a database file
-double click the database file and boom iTunes should load your library without having to copy it to the computer
PS: do make sure that if you are going to do it this way, make sure that the external HD is connected at all times, because if you don't then you will get exclamation marks next to your iTunes songs
double PS: if you are unsure how to find out if the iTunes library file is a database file just right click it and choose properties and under the type it should say database file
hope this helps:)

Hi, how can I limit the number of emails I can see on my iPhone 5. Every time in delete one and older email gets added from my live.co.uk account (where I want to keep my 2500 emails) I just don't want many on my phone. Thanks

You can't. Why on earth would you attempt to manage 2500 emails with setting up a folder structure or some means of doing so? Simply keeping them in an single inbox is not realistic, no matter what email client you use.

Watch out. ROWNUM is run before ORDER BY so this would only
order the 25 selected

How can I limit the number of ros in TextArea?

As I turn on the line wrap and having used setRows method,
I cannot limit the number of rows of the textarea into 2.
How can I limit it?
Thanks.

I give up. You don't know specify requirements and I'm not going to prompt you every 5 minutes for more information.
due to setText method So this implies that the text comes from somewhere, maybe a database, but the user does not type the text directly into the text area.
If you define the text area with 2 rows, then the third row will not be visible, so I don't see the problem. Just don't add the text area to a scroll pane and the user will never know the third row is there.[http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z55/nwoedf/temp/error.png ]
it demonstrates the problem with excess line
The third row is still visible even I have used setRow(2).

How can I limit the fonts in the Character Map (charmap) and reinitialize the state after use?

In a WPF application I have a RichTextBox in which users will be inserting text. I also must give the user the ability to insert characters. To do so I have called up charmap.exe using
Process charProcess = new Process();
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
charProcess.StartInfo.FileName = strCharmap;
charProcess.Start();
etc., and it works fine. There are several problems I have basically with charmap, however, not with WPF. The first is that because of the subsequent use of the user’s insertion in the RTB, I must restrict the font to “Ariel Unicode
MS.” So far all I have been able to do is instruct and warn the user not to change fonts and
change back any font change that occurs as a result of use of “Advanced view” features.
Question number one is, how can I restrict the fonts loaded into charmap to this one font? The second problem is that if another font is called up, or the “Advanced view” state of charmap is closed, or a “Group by” feature is opened, these choices will
be retained for the next user that opens charmap. How can I initialize the state of charmap for each new user with the correct font and “Advanced view” features showing. It is said,but in old posts, that reinitialization occurs for all but administrative users,
but this seems to be no longer true. I have tried permission changes in charmap’s Properties, but I can’t get the necessary reinitialization to occur even if user’s don’t have modify permission. Can one use a .ini file, or the .mui file, or make Registry changes
to accomplish my goals. There seems to be a warning in the .mui file about changing fonts, but is it cancelled? I am using Windows 7 and C#.
I have looked at other character maps but they are either too complicated for the casual user, or they have no search engine and advanced features, or they have the same problems.
I am pretty much a novice with respect to the Windows files use and WPF, so please be fairly clear, complete, and prescriptive in your answer. Also so that I and others can learn, it would be nice to have an explanation of why one does whatever you suggest.
Your help is appreciated.

How can I limit the number of messages coming into my email accounts on the IOS7

I don't like the new IOS7 system most annoying is the excess battery useage and need to recharge the other is I can no longer limit the number of emails that are in my cell's email accounts old system let you choose the amount of messages.
already did the basic things to eliminate battery drainiage getting rid of open pages which was also annoying to figure out how to use as you can't simply click and hold then delete all open apps running in the back ground you must touch and slide them off the phone. I don't let apps do auto updates.
They need to do something about the battery and having to have all emails on the phone which likely is sucking up space.
Any suggestions?

I don't think it matters what you use as your email client. This is a feature that existed before and was missed in the upgrade to IOS 7. I read on another post that if you contact Apple support they just tell you to report it in Apple feedback. I just submitted feedback at http://www.apple.com/feedback/ I couldn't find an IOS section to post it to, so I just posted it in the iPhone section. Maybe if enough people do this, Apple will fix it.

How can I limit the number of rows in Oracle?

Hi All,
I am using very complex query where I join 6 table to fetch data from database.
I have requirement like fetching a first 10000 row and then fetching another records after 10000 and so on.
I just want to know how to fetch a limited number of rows using sql query. Moreover, I also want to know how to calculate the total number of row (alternative of count method because I don't want to query the database twice because its affect the performance).
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sunny

Regards,
SunnyThis smells like a very fishy requirement based on a fundamental misunderstanding of how Oracle works. Could you explain why you want to arbitrarily limit the result set to 1000 rows? What will happen between that and getting the "next" 1000? What triggers getting the "next" 1000? and how do you define "next", since there is no ordering in a heap table.
I suspect we can make that requirement go away be presenting a better approach to the real issue.
