history-search-backward

I think I've posted this before, but I forgot about it and now can't live without it.
Put this in your .inputrc:

"\e[A": history-search-backward
"\e[B": history-search-forward

Type the beginning of a previous command line and press up-arrow. Sweet!

Intel Core 2 Duo overclocking

I'm running two instances of mprime torture test on an E6700 2.66 GHz Core Duo @ 3.2 GHz, and I can't get it to fail :) Intel must rank these chips way below potential... I'm using a nice big Zalman heatsink+fan but still. However, I would like to get a southbridge cooler as that chip is getting pretty hot.

I just built a new system.. E6700, 4 GB ram, all SATA, Ubuntu64... I love it :) I'll take some pics soon. Normally I don't name my pcs, but with the black brushed metal CoolerMaster Mystique toping it off I had to go with "Blackhawk" :)
