Linux Certification Roundup
jdean writes: "I thought I'd take a minute and toot my own horn and mention my article on the O'Reilly Network which gives a roundup of the various Linux certifications currently available. It's part of my series on Linux certification." -
Creating a Black Hole With OpenGL
There's a cool article on O'Reilly Net concerning using 3D graphic software to emulate black holes. Interesting article - with a lot of information about OpenGL and what you can do. -

Using Memory File Systems In BSD
by by writes "In O'Reillynet's Big Scary Daemons column, Michael Lucas explains how to effectively use memory file systems. MFSes are especially useful in diskless workstations. You can even create a MFS larger than physical memory and BSD will use swap space when needed." -
Setting Up IPv6 On BSD
by by writes "O'Reillynet's OpenBSD Explained column recently explained how to setup IPv6 on OpenBSD. Interesting glimpse into the future of the Internet." True enough. It was my impression that the BSDs all got IPv6 at the same time though, courtesy of the work carried out by the KAME group. On a very much related note, Jim O'Gorman has written an IPv6 Behind a NAT article for this month's Daemon News, which also makes getting involved in IPv6 easier. -

BSD Basics For The Newbie
qbasicprogrammer writes: "FreeBSD Basics on The O'Reilly Network covers some of the more useful FreeBSD commands that make computer life easier, including commands for things like scrolling through virtual terminals and checking date, time, and current working directory. Good read for the BSD neophyte." -

Game Development in Mozilla
camworld writes "O'ReillyNet has a short article from the Alphanumerica guys about building a classic arcade game using Mozilla: In a way, this is like connecting a DSL line to a Commodore 64 computer. We're working on rewriting an arcade game from the early 80s using Mozilla technologies. By combining two different technologies from two very different times, we hope to be able to learn something new from in a new way." -
Programming OpenGL Articles
An anonymous reader wrote in to say: "The O'Reilly Network has posted a bunch of articles about OpenGL programming under Linux. There's an introduction to OpenGL, and then two related articles detailing how to create a OpenGL application. They've even included a demo program which is released as PD. Hopefully this will inspire more programmers out there to use OpenGL in their applications." -

Tim O'Reilly Debates Patent Office Director
jbc writes "The O'Reilly Network is running a debate between Tim O'Reilly and Patent Office Director Q. Todd Dickinson. Among the highlights is Tim's call for a Slashdot-like forum to serve as a means of identifying prior art." A bare-knuckled debate, not as in-depth as I'd have liked, but it's good to know Dickinson's perspective. Someone else mentioned a list of educational patents on computer assisted instruction techniques some of which go back to the 1960s. -
Linuxcare Responds To Tim O'Reilly's Article
Dave Sifry writes: "I wanted to let you guys know that my response to Tim O'Reilly's recent column about Linuxcare. Things really aren't as bad as some in the press have made it appear. I feel it is important to get a dose of facts into the conversation -- now that we're out of our quiet period and we can talk about what's going on, and all of the neat stuff we've been working on." After all that's been said about LinuxCare, it's good to hear info straight from the top, and that Tim O'Reilly is an active listener. Just remember who's speaking. -
Bostic on BSD
O'Reilly's FreeBSD DevCenter is currently running an interview with Keith Bostic, one of the principal architects of 4.4 and 4.4-lite BSD, and a co-founder of BSDI. In it he discusses the genesis of BSDI, the merits of the BSD and Linux development models, marketing open source software, and more.
