How to convert audio for Asterisk .wav format
In our example we take "sound.mp3" and convert it to .wav.
Generally Asterisk for its wave needs one audio channel (-ac 1) / mono and 8000hz (-ar 8000) instead of the standard CD/MP3 of 44100hz.
Here is the command to convert into Asterisk .wav format:
ffmpeg -i sound.mp3 -ac 1 -ar 8000 sound.wav
Errors Asterisk may give you if the format is wrong:

Linux Mint Ubuntu Debian CentOS Dual Boot Install Issues
The best way to avoid this problem is to understand how your BIOS is setup to boot.
Often newer machines will default to U(EFI) which is different than the traditional MBR/Legacy mode.
The problem is that this may not be apparent, often a BIOS Boot Menu will show a Legacy Boot Option and EFIOption without defining it.
A good example of this is if your USB is called "Kingston" you may see in your Boot Menu "Kingston" and also "Ubuntu"........
"This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: cmov Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU.
You should only get this if you are using a Pentium II or something really old. The problem here is that newer kernels than 2.6 don't have true i386 support even if you tell it to compile as i386. It will still include features like cmov that break older computers from being able to work.
Generally for very old computers like above, you need to use a 2.6.x kernel and of course make sure it is i386 and all the binaries are as well.

CentOS 6 and 7 / RHEL Persistent DHCP Solution
It is very silly but the default on the ifup-eth script tells dhclient ( the program that obtains a DHCP IPaddress if you have selected DHCPin your ifcfg-eth* config file) to EXIT / QUIT if the first attempt to obtain a lease fails.
No amount of dhclient.conf settings will fix this because if dhclient is started with -1 (which it is by default)then dhclient will quit.
This is obviously very bad for MOST cases. Say for example you have a power outage or........
LUKS unable to type password to unlock during boot on Debian, Ubuntu and Mint
I think this is more so an issue with kernel modules not being included. I had this issue on Linux Mint because a new kernel I upgraded to DIDNOT have the "extra" modules and part of that reason is also because older kernels are named differently than new ones.
Take this example article below that shows it in action.

Debian Ubuntu and Linux Mint Broken Kernel After Date - New Extra Module Naming Convention
I don't consider a lot of these "extra" kernel modules "nice to have" as they often contain drivers for essential items like your soundcard, your NIC and many other devices that may not work. Sometimes you may find that "sound" or "ethernet" worked before a kernel/OS upgrade and now in the new version they don't. Often it will be because you need to install the "extra" kernel modules.
One other weird thing is that sometimes........

Cannot get mono to work properly on Linux Mint
mono/wine not working in Ubuntu/Linux Mint/Debian:
The assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded.
It should have been installed in the `/usr/lib/mono/2.0/mscorlib.dll' directory.
solution:
sudo apt-get install mono-complete
Problems:
mono does not work well for even simple things like a Winrar self extracting .exe fi........
Virtualbox errors on Ubuntu/Debian/Mint
The solution was to reinstall the vbox dkms package and do a manual modprobe of the modules it makes.
I never sorted out the unable to start due to the USB issue, I did have the guest additions installed but the only way to boot was to change the pointing device from USB to PS2 and then to disable the USB controller (if your pointing device is set as USB, disabling USB will not work because it will re-enable by default when it sees your pointing device is USB, this is w........

Centos/obfsproxy errors
I never did get it working, it is too bad as obfsproxy should really be an option and integrated into the OpenVPN client and server or something similar:

The above is an accurate description of what is wrong.
In our case the client made a simple mistake of thinking the localhost.crt and localhost.key (default key locations for Apache SSL in Centos) were in the same directory but they we........

This was caused by trying to run a 64-bit template on a 32-bit kernel hostnode which is obviously impossible.
The solution is to use a 32-bit template or upgrade the hostnode to 64-bit.........

Unhandled Lockdown error (-4)
This is because you need the libimobiledevice-utils package installed and a newer version of it.
My older Ubuntu 10.10 uses a version that does not have "idevicepair" which seems to work perfectly and automatically with newer versions of the library.
Basically if you install the above library it should be plug and play and if your imobiledevice-utils doesn't have 'idevice........

Ikeep getting this error but so far there is no obvious solution. Sometimes I've had to remove the *.hist files so I'll try that again.

This is an ongoing random problem after months of running webalizer it runs into some problem that can only be fixed by removing the following files so it can rebuild the stats (you end up losing p........
phpBB guests unable to view forums without logging in Anonymous account solution
This is still a weird quirk about phpBB, you can allow everyone+guests to see a forum.
What also controls the first layer is this weird built-in "Anonymous" account. You have to actually give that account specific rights to view all the forums or otherwise the above will happen and you'll wonder why your group permissions don't seem to apply.........
VBulletin Enhanced Captcha / RegSecure not showing/working images solution.

I'm using ecryptfs and was suddenly unable to access or even ls my home directory (but every subfolder is accessible). It just hangs and throws this message in messages/dmesg:
Either the lower file is not in a valid eCryptfs format, or the key could not be retrieved. Plaintext passthrough mode is not enabled; returning -EIO
I read somewhere that perhaps some file or folder is owned by root somehow, sure enough there are some and sudoing to root allows me to........
Samsung Galaxy Note Ubuntu Linux USB Connection Error
This pops up when connecting the phone and it doesn't seem to charge. The phone keeps showing a status message every few seconds "Connected as a media device".
It's ridiculous why this phone doesn't just default as a simple USB Mass storage device.
Here's what I see in /var/log/messages:

Centos how to upgrade from PHP 5.2 to 5.3 without downtime
This may sound silly but there will be conflicts/issues with the default Centos repository so you have to use a third party like remi (I prefer not to do this but it's the only option unless you migrate your sites/data to another server or can stand some downtime-not an option IMHOon a production server).
You may need to upgrade to PHP5.3 to run Joomla or many other reasons.
Your host needs to use PHP 5.2.4 or higher to run this version of Jo........
Centos Solution to "Warning: Unable to open /dev/fd0 read-write (Read-only file system). /dev/fd0 has been opened read-only."
Warning: Unable to open /dev/fd0 read-write (Read-only file system). /dev/fd0 has been opened read-only.
That's a very annoying error, it's simply because Centos for some reason thinks it's wise to load the "floppy" kernel module, who has a floppy drive? I haven't seen or used a floppy for over 12 years!
It's more than just annoying, if you probe the drives attached to your system, eg. with grub or partprobe, it keeps trying to locate a flopp........
Kernel/make compilation time and how to improve compile times/compile the Linux kernel faster without hardware upgrades
I thought only a faster CPUand SSDwould help but I already have a Quad-Core CPU and it wasn't being maxed out. The actual tests were performed on an AMD-V enabled 128MB dual core VMWare container though.
There is a flag that can be passed to make in order to start multiple threads, by specifying 4 threads I was able to reduce the whole kernel compilation time from scratch by about 50%! (65minutes vs 31minutes!). *Yes I did do a make clean before each co........

Yahoo Mail (email) DNS Server Out Of Date Problems
I don't expect this to be solved soon but some of Yahoo's DNS servers are out of whack. I changed the IPs of some nameservers of some domains and now most Yahoo users can't e-mail to those domains!
As you can see below by the "No MX or A records for mychangedomain.com", now Yahoo's DNS/mailserver DNS cache is wrong. You would think they would at least have cached the old incorrect records, but instead for some reason their DNS cache has no entry and doesn't seem........

Norton Antivirus is the worst - who would have known?
Norton Antivirus is the worst - who would have known?http://www.software-antivirus.com/
Check the link above, that review site lists Norton as one of the ones to stay away from. With good reason too, I always wondered why Norton seemed to miss so many viruses, spyware and such. Even when it didn't, it was absolutely useless because it was either unable to delete the file and it was never able to repair or disinfect.
So in essence, from my experience, N........
Create/Enable SSL Certificates for Apache on Linux/Unix Systems eg. Redhat,Centos,Debian
Shortcut/Easiest Way To Create A Self-Signed Key:
openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -days 1530 -out server.crt -keyout server.key
Using the above, you instantly create a self-signed certificate valid for 1530 days and you can simply skip to step #5.) below.
If You Need a Real SSLCertificate (eg. Equifax/Openssl) then you need to create a CSR request (you'll need to follow Steps 1.) and 2.) in order to create the CSR. You then upload the CSR Certi........
