Why does mtab show /dev/root rather than the partition mounted on /

Sorry if I have missed something I should have read, but can anybody explain please why my mtab no longer contains a reference to the actual partition which is mounted as root. I have:
/dev/root / ext3 rw,relatime,errors=continue,data=writeback
but no reference to the partition.
TIA

It's related to this by the looks of it (see the links in post #6). /etc/mtab is created by copying what's in /proc/mounts.

Why use Protected Overide Sub OnPaint rather than the standard Paint_Event ?

I notice many good programmers use this following method rather than the usual Paint_Event when painting to the form.
Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(e As PaintEventArgs)
Dim g As Graphics = e.Graphics
g.SmoothingMode = Drawing2D.SmoothingMode.HighQuality
g.InterpolationMode = Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic
MyBase.OnPaint(e)
End Sub
Can anybody share the reasons why? Thanks
Top Tip: Toothache? Cut paper towel to 2"square. Smear with olive oil. Sprinkle on Cayenne Pepper. Fold over few times to form small wad. Tuck in between wall of mouth and gum. Leave 1 - 2 hrs. You will thank me!

OK Crazypennie, maybe you are right. I tend to rant on a bit sometimes.
Also, maybe the jumpy graphics is made worse because the animation output is not synced with the video hardware refresh rate. We can get around that slightly by using a very high fps.
Hi Leon,
I tried modifying your code using a GraphicsFrame class that I wrote a little while back, the class utilizes the bufferedcontext/bufferedgraphics, instead of using the forms graphics directly. In theory, all objects should be rendered to the buffer before
the forms graphics object. Is this less glitchy/faster on your pc? It seemed less glitchy/faster on mine..., and previous benchmarks show that using buffered graphics in this manner improved render time.
You can read the discussion on
this thread.

I purchased an episode but it is only showing 30 seconds rather than the full 42 minutes. How do I get it to play the full episode as I can't seem to download it again?

I downloaded a tv epsiode, but it doesn't show the entire 42 minutes. All I get is a clip of 30 seconds, rather than the entire 42 minute episode. I have tried to download the episode again, but it wont allow me to and I have also tried to download the series, but if I do that it wont deliver the epsiode that I already have suposedly downloaded. Anyone have any idea how to help?
Thanks,

Why does browser download a file rather than displaying it?

I am using a Nexus 7 device. I have a website locally on the device together with all of the data files. When I use the browser to select a file it does not need to download it. I want it to call up a list of the programs that can display the file so that I can select which app to use. When I leave that app then I expect it to go back to the browser and the HTML web page I was previou. sly viewing. It has done that at various times but has stopped now. How do I get it to resume displaying the files rather than downloading them onto the same device?

That happens when the site's related cookies (viewable under options in your browser) have not cleared and the timeout session has not been registered. It doesn't affect your minutes online so you can either delete your cookies or just let it be. It has no negative effect so no need to worry.

Why does Firefox show a little triangle in the form field ?

I setup a form and my client wants rounded corners and a background-image for the fields.
It looks well in IE, but with Firefox i get a little white triangle in the left bottom corner of the fields.
I looked at all the CSS for the field for conflicting settings, but could not find any.
Can you help me with this ?

It looks that there is some problem with the CSS code for the bottom of those fields and that the bottom right corner is shown in that position.
Maybe you can post a minimized code example that shows this issue.

Why does Firefox 5 open external (internet, SMTP) e-mail in the browser rather than the Lotus Notes Client?

Using Lotus Notes as the system's primary mail client, '''some''' users experience external mail being opened in the browser rather than the the client. When they revert back to using an older version as the OS default browser, or indeed a different browser altogether, this does not happen.
Again, this does not happen with all installations of 5.0 - just a few.

go to "preferences" in Lotus Notes and enable "disable embodded browser for MIME mail" and it shoudn't open the browser anymore

How can I make ringtones show in my Tones tab rather than the Music tab?

I just bought my first iPhone 4 and uploaded a bunch of music ringtone files to iTunes and changed the default preference to display the Tones tab. However, the ringtones all got added to the Music tab rather than the Tones tab. I have a number of questions:
I'm used to other phones where any music file can be set as a ringtone for a particular contact. Is this the case for iPhones too?
If so, how can I set a ringtone for a contact from these music files?
If not, how can I get the ringtones to appear in the Tones tab? I assume that I would have to do that to sync ringtones to my iPhone ringtone "folder".
Is there another alternative? I read on the forum something about dragging ringtone files to the iPhone. Not sure I understood that! Does this mean I can drag a music file from the Music tab to the iPhone icon and have that file end up in the iPhone ringtone "folder"? If it ends up in the Music "folder", how do I access it to set it as a contact ringtone?
Thank you for any light you can shed on this.

It would be good if this was made a user-defined Option (Tools -> Options -> Tabs) in the next update of Firefox rather than having to install an add-on. I currently keep Firefox open to view my Accuweather.com add-on running or because I know that I will be returning to Firefox in short order. (I do close Firefox if I have visited a sensitive or secure site to ensure better security.) Every time I want to go to a bookmark, I must open a new "(Untitled)" tab before selecting my bookmark using the keyboard (I'm a dedicated keystroker; it's much faster for me). This way, when I close the website, I have an "(Untitled)" tab displaying so that Firefox doesn't close. Why can't I set an Option parameter that will result in me not having to go through this? Alternatively, allow users to set an option to keep Firefox loaded and open in the event only one tab is open and maybe if only one Firefox application window is running (I avoid having more than one Firefox window open as much as possible). I've addressed this last issue in the past but have seen no change when one closes the last tab in a Firefox window. As general practice, I would think that Firefox would run better if options, like I have described above, were part of the Firefox application code and not given to needing an add-on which may cause instability in Firefox as they have in the past, even with author verification and certification.

Can you set live bookmarks to show topic replies rather than new topics (or is that a setting of the site/forum)?

I have live bookmarks for some forums, blogs, and news pages on my bookmarks toolbar and only one site shows topic replies rather than new topics in the dropdown bar. Can I configure the forum ones to show topic replies or is that a setting configured by the website itself?

Nope. This is a common request, for some form of preview, typically as Outlook does it. Almost equally common are requests to have absolutely no preview whatsoever in case something nasty happens.

Cell calculations showing header text rather than data

This has to be simple, but I am stumped.
I have added header text to a SS. Now when I attempt to add a calculation to a cell in the SS Numbers is showing the text in the calculation rather than the cell data or cell location.
How do I stop this? Just want to see something like this: =F13-(E13*4)
but I get this
=On Hand Now test line-(Monthly Average test line*Cal. 212 West Jackson Street)
Numbers does put the the correct numeric result in the proper cell but I don't want to see the above.

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File - Export - Album name with number).

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?

Why does firefox show up as a plugin on volume mixer?

Why does firefox show up as a plugin on volume mixer? After updating a flash plugin into firefox (when it had requested me to update it), it no longer shows up as firefox in volume mixer. It now shows up as some plugin icon. I really don't understand this, and wish it to be the firefox icon again. What is going on and what happened? It names itself "Plugin Container For Firefox" What does that mean? It has been this way ever since, and nothing I have done has fixed this. Restarting, refreshing, reinstalling, clearing cache, etc. Can anyone think of something please? :(
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== This happened just a couple days ago (june 25, 2010 exactly)
