Monitor stuck at half resolution

I think the USB powered one on that page is the one I have. If it can do 4K it should be able to do 2K right? I know 2560x1600 isn't specifically listed, but neither is 1280x800 and that's what I'm getting. If the adapter really is the problem, though, is there another one that would be more...

Black screen on boot

Interesting development- The computer was plugged into a UPS (APC XS 1500). I tried plugging it directly into the wall... and both boot and bios work fine -- except I would always get a BSOD 10 seconds after logging in to windows complaining about the USB3 driver. I fixed that by reinstalling...

Black screen on boot

I tried 2 different dvi cables to both of the smaller lcds. The larger lcd is connected with a DisplayPort cable. (I'm doing all these tests with only 1 monitor connected at a time of course). I tried running it again to check for HDD light activity. It looks like it's giving the boot device...

Comprehensive resource logging with charts?

I'm setting up an internet-facing server using Gentoo Linux with multiple services, the biggest of which are Minecraft, Apache, and Mumble. I want to determine if the machine can handle it all, or if I need to upgrade something. My plan is to get everything running and then have a 'testing'...

Enterprise backup software?

Thanks for the ideas. To clarify, I definitely wanted to use the Linux app server as the backup server. And while free solutions are of course preferred, I wouldn't mind spending a bit. CrashPlan looks really nice but the lack of a 'bare metal restore' is a deal breaker. I was able to find...

Enterprise backup software?

In my house there are 5 Windows computers (2 workstations, 2 laptops, 1 HTPC) and 2 Linux (1 internal file/application server, 1 public facing web/game server). My old backup strategy was just to get out the esata enclosure once every couple months and save my personal files and the installers...
