when trying to run Lenovo ThinkVantage System Update 4 over RDP it closes itself after the splash screen …
one has to run it in compatibility mode “Windows XP (Service Pack 3)” for whatever reason …
computers do behave strange sometimes …
my server would not mount any inserted media from the dvd drive any more .. for no reason it stopped …
finding this post i installed “cdde” and did a reboot .. now it works again …
sudo aptitude install cdde
when trying to use the zend debugger today it just would not work …
looking into “window > preferences > debug > installed debugger” it showed me that i have xdebug and zend debugger installed …
a page suggested to remove xdebug … but when running phpinfo() it did not show anything about xdebug .. so that could not be the problem …
another page suggested to look into the error.log from apache where i read:
[Zend Debugger] Debugger compile handler overriden, will not be active in this request
when searching for this i found another page pointed me into the right direction .. (this one: http://www.phil-taylor.com/2006/04/05/debugger-compile-handler-overriden-cannot-continue/)
phil mentions that the problem is with running both zend debugger and the ioncube loader .. made me remember that i did install the ioncube loader last week …
his suggestion to remove the following line from php.ini did not work for me …
zend_debugger.expose_remotely=allowed_hosts
therefore i removed the zend loader … will set it up again when needed …
thanks phil!

to format a usb thumb drive you need a software called “gparted”.
to install it use the following command:
sudo aptitude install gparted
or you may also use the “Software Manager”,
search for “gparted” and install it.
after the installation run it either by starting it with the command
gparted &
using the terminal or you may also find it in the mint menu listed in the group “Administration”
or just type “gparted” into the search box.
select the device you want to format from the dropdown list in the top right corner
when you made sure you have selected the correct device right-click the partition and select “Unmount”
then right-click the partition again and select the format you want the thumb drive to have from the sub-menu “Format to”
apply the changes by clicking on the ‘return’-button “Apply All Operations”
you have to confirm the operations to take effect
once the thumb drive is formatted you may close all windows and mount it by clicking on it in a nautilus window.
