Some can. You can use Mono on Linux and Mac to run your .NET apps -
but, it isn't guarenteed to work. For instance, if you are using COM
interop or P/Invoke then your application will need to be modified. If
you are using some of the newer API's (such as WPF) then you may have
issues. The mono team has a tool that can scan your project and detect
potential porting issues - so it might be worth checking that out.

OK, PHP newbie here, did a search, but I can't see the forest for the trees now. I need a sanity check to see if I've got this right. Short answers will do fine. 1. PHP includes a native ODBC module that is available without any extra installs i.e. it's always there, correct ? 2. I can use PHP on the MS-windows platform to access any ODBC compliant d/b that there is a driver for, correct ?

Hello there, Are there any out-of-the box handhelds that run Linux/Apache/MYSQL and PHP? Does Redhat, Suse, or Gentoo support any handhelds? I know the Zaurus comes close, but I've heard people have problems running LAMP applications on it. It would be cool to be able to run any LAMP application on sourceforge on a handheld computer.

I have an ANSI C program that was compiled under Windows MSVC++ 6.0 (SP6) and under Linux gnu, and ran under P3, P4 and AMD. It runs fine on P3 and AMD under both Windows and Linux, but under P4 it has problems. Under Windows 3GHz P4 runs twice slower than 800MHz P3... and under Linux not only that it runs slower (while AMD is 40 times faster), but it also produces wrong numerical results... Any suggestion what can be the problem?

A programmer developed an AMP (Apache/MySQL/PHP) application for me. When he was done, he sent me the PHP files and the MySQL dump file. Now, when I connect to the application on my LAN using http://192.168.1.106/~mlh/credifree/index.php the AMP app still thinks the data resides somewhere else. It runs fine - as long as I leave my LAN's external internet connection up. But if I unplug my LAN from the world, my app locks up. Before I...

Hi All; I have Psyco (on Windows XP) and now I want to install it on Linux, too. I FTP'd the tarball (tar.gz) from Psyco's site but can't get it compiled. First, I tried the usual "python setup.py install" but that did not work. I later found a RPM for Psyco but it wasn't suitable to the Linux version I'm currently using. Has any of you had a similar experience? If so, how did you manage to solve the problem (in the case that you...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
