To get the vim user-manual I am doing
vi test
and then, once the file is opened, I do
:help user-manual
This opens up a split window, which makes reading manual inconvenient to read. How do I only open the user-manual in the full window ?
I changed my hostname by editing /etc/hostname and can see the new hostname using the 'hostname' and 'hostname -F' commands.
But why is the shell prompt still showing the old hostname?

I have a PDF that consists of several hundred pages of bilingual text. Since I need to use OCR on each language separately, I want to grab the even and odd pages and make two separate PDFs, using convert or ghostscript. The language I want to do first is on the odd-numbered pages. What convert or...
I'm trying to setup my debian server to download email from a gmail account (e.g. forwarder@gmail.com) and then forward it to a 3rd party email. The reason I can't just setup email forwarding within gmail is because I need the headers to reflect that the email is coming from forwarder@gmail.com. ...
Please note that I don't ask how. I already know options like pv and rsync -P.
I want to ask why doesn't cp implement a progress bar, at least as a flag ?

By pasting into a text editor, I have a textfile gleaned from an online edition of Wilhelm's Yi Jing translation which I now want to split into 64 unequal parts, according to the 64 hexagrams of the Yi Jing.

When i try to install FreeBSD i always get confused which iso is the correct one for Rack mounted servers. In there download there are too many versions (http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/) of FreeBSD
Which one is the correct one to burn in CDROM or USB drive to install
Thanks
@Gilles I think moving this question here was a good idea ... but did I misunderstand you that you knew the answer? I don't and I always feel particularly bad about questions that go unanswered after being migrated. It's rough enough on newbies to have their question shuffled around like a hot potato :)
My knowledge of how schedulers work is barely enough to even edit the question to fix up the rough edges.
@Caleb No, I don't know the answer. But it's close to other questions that had a good answer (and I don't mean from me), so I think here is a good place.
Actually I think SO would have been better, but this question didn't stand a chance.
And I fear SF would have been too applied, this question requires a solid understanding of the internals.
You're right, I don't think it would have lived on SF either, Heck if I wasn't feeling sympathetic or interested in the topic I may have voted to close it there as being irrelevant to the management of servers.
@Gilles No I don't actually think it is there are several counter-points. But when I first read it the bulletted question sounded like it came from somewhere other than the asker and he was trying to fill in around it.
I am running a FreeNAS (FreeBSD version) in DELL R310. But when i connect same USB stick which gets automatically mounted in CentOS/Fedora, but however in FreeBSD it does not.
