Super nerdy question:

I have XBMC running on a Raspberry Pi and I want to see files on my Sony Windows 7 laptop. There is an NFS option in the XBMC interface.

Does anyone know how to I can see files over the network?

Long shot, but thanks in advance.

What really sucks about that is that there's no way you can sneak anything by her.  She knows all the model numbers and all the prices, so as soon as the blue bag hits, she can do the math.  Then comes the "Oi!  Looks like someone's planning on sleeping on the couch tonight."

Haha, no worries, I got it (mostly) sorted. Its pretty awesome, if anyone want to set up a v.low cost media centre drop me  a PM, happy to share knowledge.

See… I ask this for me brother... I gave him a (pre-formatted) drive and it worked... He got a new one and it doesn't... I told him to change it to a FAT32 drive, guess he was too lazy to look it up... 

Thanks for the info, lads!..

I have a prepared speech for occasions such as that, it goes along the lines of "I hardly drink, or go out, I don't smoke any more, I work loads of extra hours, blah, blah, blah…....a mans got to have one pleasure in life". Then I give her the  face.

Alternatively, I buy her or Tommy something at the same time, so I get at least one of them onside

Once Tommy is old enough, you'll be getting 3 items on average per IH delivery, I reckon

So.. Someone I live with washed my 634s not inside out, and with a 1400 rpm spin.  Now I have some lovely new vertical crease lines

Anyone got any ideas on how to improve/reduce the lines??

Cheers.

[rocket]

with wear they should be less noticeable, but thats a shot in the dark without seeing how bad it actual is…

Ouch, that is a problem, I suspect you're going to have to learn to like vertical fades…..

[Seul]

And of course strangle the person who washed them, but that goes without saying.
