    Drivebender is out

    Has anyone taken Driver Bender for a serious trip? Is it considered "safe" for production use yet? Is WHS2011 finally where it should have been from the start?

    I have done pci passthrough with Xen, so it should be possible.

    Is my integrated LSI-controller dead?

    Nah...not that big a bummer really. Got it very cheap, so it was a calculated risk :) Nevertheless, it would be fun if I got it to work! I've been through the BIOS many many times, so I'm pretty sure that everything is ok there. I've also tried to reset and re-flash the BIOS multiple times. I...

    Is my integrated LSI-controller dead?

    Yes, the controller is detected, but it cannot be started. It fails with a warning that the card cannot be reset. Disks attached to the controller is not detected, and is also not listed at startup (BIOS/POST screen).

    Is my integrated LSI-controller dead?

    Hi! I bought an OEM Tyan S2915-E (from an XW9400 workstation) off eBay, accepting the risks as it was sold "as is". The board works perfectly, except I can't get the onboard LSI 1068E adapter to work. I've tried re-flashing it with new firmware/BIOS (sasflash), but all attempts fail with the...

    OpenSolaris derived ZFS NAS/ SAN (OmniOS, OpenIndiana, Solaris and napp-it)

    Thanks, I know about the *Solaris *BSD alternatives, but I want to use Linux. I'll keep an eye on the progress. Might go for Amahi anyway.

    Which Blue-ray player?

    No, but the media capabilities was mentioned by others, so I felt it was relevant information. It would certainly affect my decision.

    Which Blue-ray player?

    Cinavia is a watermark within the audio track of movies. The watermark is detected by Cinavia enabled players (such as the PS3), and will mute the audio or stop the playback when the watermark is detected and the playback medium is not "authorized" (your rips). There's a lot of discussions over...

    Which Blue-ray player?

    Except the PS3 is infected with Cinavia, so you can't actually play back your rips (with Cinavia) on it... (yeah, I'm aware of the "workarounds")

    ION vs H55/H67 for HTPCing

    Yup... Sandy Bridge doesn't handle 23.976 fps (aka true 24p), and never will.
