If you just want to do it once, I believe you can export all your outlook contacts to vcard files, then import these to evolution.

hah, boy am I an idiot. I'll just plug in head phones all the time. that seemed to solve it pretty quick. Much better than searching around for jumpers... though not quite as fun.

yeah, the sony site is pretty much useless. No real technical docmentation there, no user forum that I can see either. If anyone's curious the model number is v505ac.

The only related setting I saw in the bios was speaker volume, but that was already set to 0. Also, the popping sound continued while I was on the bios screen, leading me to believe that I may have to fix this issue on the hardware. I've never opened a laptop before. Anyone know if this is going...

I recently inherited a sony vaio from a friend. Apparently he spilled something on it and had to buy a new one. The laptop appears to be in almost perfect condition except for the speakers. The built-in speakers periodically make a little bit of a pop sound. That sound alternates from left to...

Anyone know of a way to get perl functions to run from within python? I've been trying to get pyperl to work, but I keep running into problems. thanks, Venkman

Well, from what I've gathered, a masters is really just a more intensive bachelors degree. A PhD is something different. As such, a masters will qualify you for the same types of jobs a bachelors does, but if you're lucky at a higher level than a bachelors would. A PhD qualifies you for a whole...

hmmm... does have anyone have a place where I can cite this in the specification for java compilers. I know I've seen it in every compiler I've ever looked at, but I'm in the midst of an academic argument about it and need an official source to reference to.

According to the specification of java, does a file have to be named "<public class name>.java" ? I know that the sun compiler I use on my linux box throws an error if you try to compile a file like "foo.java" with a public class of "bar" in it, but is this just a recommendation that sun's...

I had saved a file in openoffice format on my home pc and then uploaded it to my work pc. When I got to work, I realized that I didn't have openoffice installed, only ms-word. In the interest of saving corporate bandwidth and laziness, I was trying to figure out a way to convert the file to...

Is there a way to convert an openoffice doc to a word doc from the command line?

Maybe it's just me, but I find that when I install a new windows system (XP in particular) it starts off considerably faster than a new linux install. This situation quickly changes as I start the ritualistic beating of my computers, where I install, uninstall, and reinstall alpha,beta, and...

It sounds like you're probably applying for an entry or junior level testing position. As with most entry level positions, they're going to be looking more for smart people than experienced people. Knowing the differences between clear box and black box testing is less important than being able...

I've recently started watching movies on my pc from both file and dvd. I've been having some problems with frames skipping and things like that, and I figure it has something to do with my crappy built in intel video card (16MB). I'm figuring that if I get a good enough video card the problem...

nah, I just assumed it was nothing. My tendency towards laziness over caution won out. ;) -Venkman

yeah, that's what I figured; I just wanted to hear it from someone else. Thanks, Venkman

I've received 2 email responses in the last 12 hours. 1 was from AOL saying it was rejecting an email from me that I never sent. The other was from a french company saying that I sent them an email with mydoom in it (I think... I don't read french). The AOL email was addressed directly to me...

I want to use tweak ui on my windows XP Pro box. I am not an administrator for the domain, but I do have local admin rights on this machine. Apparently the admins for the domain have disabled tweak ui via a group policy setting. Is there any way to get around this other than not logging onto the...

I'm looking for an ftp-like gui based program that works for http also. I have to download multiple files from a site often, and I think having a gui like this would be the easiest way. Originally, I tried the windows port of wget, but it doesn't allow globbing in http mode, so I wasn't able to...

Okay, will run HijackThis.exe and let you know the results. The OS is Win 98. To the best of my knowledge, it does not have windows messenger installed on it, but I will double check that also when I get a chance. Thanks, Venkman
