asp.net multithreading mono cairo imaging
The Mono.Cairo Homepage says “Don’t try to use Cairo in threads other than the main (Gdk) thread.”This would seem to imply that there is an issue using Cairo from multiple threads, such as in an ASP.NET application. I would like to know if Cairo and Mono.Cairo can safely be used from multiple threads simultaneously as long as there is no shared data involved. (each thread has its own context/surface, etc). If there is global locking, I would like to know about that as well. (System.Drawing.Grap

windows-7 deployment opensource imaging lab
Are there any general recommendations for managing OS’s on a portable laptop cart? The cart will be taken to educational labs and used for teaching job skills to prisoners. We want to reset all the laptops at the end of each semester so the new class doesn’t end up with a hacked/messed up system. We could make a master image and redeploy it each semester, but how do you automate the changing of the hostname (so each has a unique id on the network) and other machine specific settings? Are the

hard-drive installation backup imaging cloning
I’m almost certain my “new” hard drive I bought last August is the cause of constant BSODs. I’ve re installed Windows and they keep happening, so… I have a smaller hard drive (320gb vs the “new” 750gb) that is currently in an external USB enclosure. I want to copy my current Windows installation (which includes everything, including my files) onto this hard drive. This 750gb drive only has 120gb used on it at the moment. The partition is larger than 320gb, though. So, how would I go about doin

macosx imaging automated-testing
Let us say I’m using a packaged-based approach of imaging for the Mac, and have a freshly imaged machine (or better, several different types of machines) ready to test. How do I perform automated testing?edit:I am primarily concerned with images for client machines. The testing I have in mind is along these lines:Run all the applications that are installed (in /Applicaions), one at a time. Does anything crash? Do applications ask for license codes (and is this expected or not)? Even better w

linux imaging ghost
I’m having a problem trying to use Ghost on one of my labs. This semester one of our instructors wanted to have a lab that can dual boot Win Xp and Linux. I set it up and pulled an image with ghost with no problems, but pushing the image back out causes Ghost to crash with the following error.ABORT: 8027 GeneralExceptionInside the error log file I find:[327782] No free space big enough to create volume.The computers I am imaging are all identical so there shouldn’t be a problem with drive space.

image imaging disk-cloning clone cloning
I am attempting to create my own one-off imaging utility based on fedora and I have one main question. The utility (well, in theory) will save a raw image of the machine to a network storage location. For me the best target is a samba share.The question is: what type of image container would be easiest to use? Could it be as simple as DDing the drive contents into a file on the samba location? And if so, would writing from that file be as simple as DDing the file on the samba target to the n

algorithm colors computer-vision imaging document-imaging
I’m writing a system to dropout certain field borders from a form image. The fields may have writing in them which I need to correctly keep even if the handwriting crosses the field border.I have 2 images: 1 color image (converted to HSV colorspace) and 1 black/white image that line up pixel per pixel (these are produced by a scanner)I would like to remove (pluck) the field border pixels from the black and white image, given the colors in the color image.I have an advantage in that I know aprio
