Folding vs coronavirus

Hey there,
I'm sorry for this OT and hope that this wpuld not be removed.

I read from:

https://foldingathome.org/2020/02/27/foldinghome-takes-up-the-fight-against-covid-19-2019-ncov/

Folding@home has many data to fight covid19. If you would help and share you power computation join folding@home to help to fight covid19.

Share this information with could share the cpu power.

If you can, join the project

What open source tools do you use for monitoring clusters

I am wondering what all open source products are available for server monitoring.

Most of the open source products moved to freemium model leaving a knowledgeable gap in the market

Not asking for a recommendation, checking on the diversity.

What tools do you use and why you use them. Which tool does this one overruled?

Good book about debugging with strace,lsof etc

Hi all,

I'm working with Linux system, the problem i find is there are very few books about debugging memory problem or CPU with Linux.

I would like something like a lot of examples explaining how strace and lsof works.

Most "linux bible" are always the same, explaining signals, process etc but without example it's dry.

I cannot really use these documentation on my production problems...

Give bash Windows-like clear behaviour

That's one of the things i greately dislike about linux.
The clear command seems to just scroll the terminal down, and the last text line is just one row above where the cursor ends up being after clear. As you scroll up clear lost all its utility.
Compare that to the cls on windows, that actually clears the current terminal window of all the history. Scrolling up you will stop at the first line after the cls command was called.
Is there any way to make linux do that too? Maybe aliasing cls instead of replacing clear

IWD rocks as wpa_supplicant alternative!

Just tested it several hours and found these improvements:

* less load time of big websites
* faster connect to AP
* interactive signal levels in cli mode
* WPS pin & push button support out the box
* list of hidden networks out the box
* works with/without NM
