Speed Up a Slow My Computer with a Simple Tweak [Windows Tip]

turn-off-network-search.pngIf you’re used to taking a coffee break because of long hangs every time you fire up Windows Explorer, the How-To Geek weblog suggests turning off network folder and printer searching in Explorer’s folder options. Just open Explorer, go to Tools -> Folder Options and click on the View tab. At the top of the File and Folders list, uncheck “Automatically search for network folders and printers” and click OK. If the networking issue was your Explorer slow-down culprit, you should notice a significantly faster startup next time you open up My Computer.

Minimize Windows to Thumbnails with ThumbWin [Featured Windows Download]


Windows only: Manage and minimize your open windows to desktop thumbnail previews with freeware application ThumbWin. At first glance this application might seem a bit frivolous, but after diving into the preferences, you'll notice a ton of worthwhile functionality—from fully configurable keyboard shortcuts, several different management options including drag and drop arrangement and resizing of thumbnails, and the ability to exclude certain windows by name or type from being thumbnailed. Add to that a small memory footprint, and this is a tempting application to add to your startup items. ThumbWin is freeware, Windows only.

Getting all items which belongs to a node using browsenode

hi,

i'm trying to get the list of items which belongs to a particular node using the browsenode function. However, as far as i can see i can get only top sellers  or new releases using the browse node, but i'm getting nothing under the bottom node childs. is there a reason for that?

i also tried to use the ItemSearch  and assign the cooresponsing node id, but i'm keep getting the same result no matter what node i'm passing in (i'm working with SearchIndex="PetSupplies"

if anyone has any idea what should i do, please help.

Thanks.

qemu vnc help!

I am trying to install a windows on a fedora 4 ami.  I have installed qemu and vnc server on the machine, but when trying this command:

qemu -hda winxp.img -cdrom xp.iso -m 1300 -boot d -std -vnc 1

I get an error saying -vnc is not a valid option.  On the qemu website it clearly shows "-vnc display" as a valid option.  Please help!

Also, once I run that command, I should be able to connect to that from vnc client on my windows computer and view the output, correct?

Thank you,
Shan

Need working XSLT page example using latest WDL (2007-09-21 or later)

I was hoping one of you AWS folks could provide a WORKING sample of an XSLT page that uses the latest WDL (2007-09-21 or later). I have been able to get an XSLT page to work correctly using the 2004 WDL, but I cannot find an example in the documentation that uses the current WDL. My REST requests are formatted correctly and contain the current WDL (Version=2007-09-21), but I don't know exactly what should be included in the xsl:stylesheet/schema/object/namespace definitions, etc., and how to correctly reference the returned XML data throughout the document (e.g., still use aws:Items or use xs:Items ?). I know I'm not alone in this since I've seen numerous complaints about the XSLT example in the AWS documentation being outdated.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Trying to build ubuntu gutsy image, getting seg fault on html2text

I'm trying to build an Ubuntu 7.10 (gutsy) image following the rough directions from this thread:

http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/thread.jspa?threadID=12872&tstart=45

I've managed to modify the fc4-to-ubuntu704base script to allow the instance to boot (besides having to change the debootstrap and sources.list sections to point at gutsy, there's an error with creating the ssh startup symlink that I fixed)

Unfortunately, the base-to-selfbundling portion of the script requires alien to handle the RPM files, and alien in turn requires html2text, which is throwing "segmentation fault" errors when I try to install it

	root@domU-12-31-38-00-25-D4:/# apt-get install html2text

Has anyone else run into this?  Or does anyone know what my next step would be to fix it?

Thanks!
