Our database now contains over 2000 projects that are using the GPL v3. This is a large milestone for the license, and seems to still be the beginning of wider adoption. Nine months have passed since the release of the controversial license and it has already gained 2k projects. At this rate the GPL v3 is being adopted by 1000 projects every 4-5 months, and if the trend continues, the license will be used by 5000 projects by the end of the year.

Check process mem usage?From: feeds.feedburner.com
Post Date: 2008-03-04 13:27:24
Let’s say a server has a limit of 25MB RAM on each user. How can I check the amount of RAM my process uses? I assume I would use ps, but there are so many fields there. There is also a limit of 10% CPU Usage. How would I check that? I would assume it’s the CPU% field in ps, but I just want to double check.

more Best way to run a script???From: feeds.feedburner.com

Hello,

Script1 would then kick off Script2, and exit to command line while Script2 continues to run in the background.
I know I can run nohup ./Script2 & and the output would go to nohup.out, bu...
more How to build an RPM from tar.gz on CentOS 4.5?From: feeds.feedburner.com
Post Date: 2008-03-04 13:25:03
Sorry for the ignorance, but Google is not helping on this one.
The system is a i386 CentOS 4.5 w/ tar 1.14 on it now.

So I cannot find any tutorials about how to build the rpm and am wondering if anyone here knows how to do it or could post some instructions or links to a guide?
Thanks

more How do I start up the GUI again?From: feeds.feedburner.com
Post Date: 2008-03-04 13:12:24
I was trying to follow these instructions to install a video driver in OpenSUSE (which was unsuccessful, but that’s for another thread), and now when I start up Suse it brings me to a command line instead of the GUI. I’m guessing it’s because of some command I typed in, but I don’t know enough Linux commands to fix it.
I already tried "init 5," and I even tried typing in "init 3" then "init 5," (all of which was done in root). There wasn’t ...
