There are a lot of things that I have found hard to find out about Linux and many things I end up having to peice together and guess a conclusion. This page has no real direction, like my many other pages, but will be a starting point to collect things that I thought could use some more explaining so they will ususally come with a reference site. If you here I assume you already know what it is you want and do not take time to explain it.
Enabling core dumps makes use of the ulimit command.
$ ulimit -c (MAX blocks)This only enables it for you current working shell, for system wide you can read the referenced page. Or if you just want it for any shell you open you can place the command in ~/.bashrc
The ulimit command is also useful for viewing/modifying other system limits. Run the following command to view the limits.
$ ulimit -a# aptitude install os-prober
# update-grub/boot/grub
/usr/share/images/desktop-base
/usr/share/images/grubfor i in {/boot/grub,/usr/share/images/desktop-base}/filename.{png,tga} ; do
I have not found any performance improvements with Hybrid Crossfire. This code was taking from the referenced page by HeikoH
aticonfig --initial --adapters=all -f # this forces a new configuration
aticonfig --lsa # this now shows two adapters, the HD3200 and the HD3450
# it also shows a number for each adapter (probably 0 and 1)
aticonfig --lscc # the crossfire candidates, shows also both adapters
aticonfig --cfa --adapter=0,1 # in this case card 0 is the master card,
# card 1 is the slave card. I think I use
# the HD3450 as the master card, so check
# with aticonfig --lscc which number it has
aticonfig --cf=on --adapter=0 # again, in case the mastercard of the chain
# has number 0 assigned, this should enable
# crossfire on the next start of Xorg
# after rebooting:
aticonfig --lsch # this should show the crossfire chain using
# both graphics cards, and it should be
# enabled
