Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yep and yep.

Thanks so much! Now I can submit my paper and thesaurus for my class and be DONE!

it seems everytime my computer goes to sleep, it logs me out and quits all applications. Kind of annoying. I can't seem to find that option to turn off.

It's not supposed to do that. I'd imagine it's crashing or restarting while trying to go to sleep.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

the crazy thing is, if I have Firefix open with more than one tab, that seems to halt the log out process, but then there are a ton of dialog boxes telling me that. It's not Vista, it's mac 10.5.x. Very strange. Gotta see what's causing it. Was hoping it was something a Buffista had witnessed and fixed.

Hey. New board.

MySQL gurus:

Let's say I have a database, with a bunch of tables with names like "backup_smf_attachments," "backup_smf_boards," etc, each of which corresponds with another table called "smf_attachments," "smf_boards," and so on.

Now let's imagine I've FUBARED the "smf_***" tables and would like to replaces them with the data from the "backup_smf_***" tables. How would I go about doing that from the mysql command line? Are there convenient commands for this sort of thing?

Hey. New board.

And while we're at it - how would you go about making backups of 2GB MySQL databases? Every time I try to run a mysqldump on it, the process gets killed before it finishes.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Woohoo!
