Re:IPv6 Design MistakesThere are three subranges in ipv6 'assigned' for IPv4:
- ::192.168.0.1 - real IPv4 connections
- :ffff:192.168.0.1 - for IPv6 sockets receiving IPv4 connections
- 2002:192.168.0.1:: - for 6to4 implementations

Re:What's in store for a moderm C64?
In The Netherlands it was Hobbyscoop, and they even pressed a CD from it:
CD Cover
For the non-dutch:
Wednesday: Radio 1 and 2, FM Stereo 19:02 - 19:30
Monday: Basicode Radio 5 AM 1008 KHZ 21:35 - 22:00
And yes indeed it sounds like Aphex Twins ;) -
putty
There is an IPv6 capable putty client available at unfix.org.
It works well but it doesn't seem to like connecting to '4 hosts. (yet...) I renamed the IPv6 version to putty6.exe to get around that problem :-)

A nice list of IPv6 links
The following list will keep you occupied about IPv6 for some time... oh just for the record ams-ix is doing NATIVE IPv6 since 1998 now... alongside NSPIXP6 and PAIX and some others to be found at v6nap.net.
First two nice repositories where you can find almost anything IPv6 related:
IPv6 News and Links (hs247)
Open Directory Project Computers/Internet/Protocols/IP/IPng/
And some others important ones which can also be found there:
6bone
Belnet
Bieringer's Linux IPv6 FAQ
Euronet Belgium
IPng
KAME
Kitame's Debian IPv6 Packages
Microsoft IPv6
PuTTY IPv6
SiXXS
Sun Solaris IPv6
Surfnet IPv6
Trumpet IPv6
IPv6 for the future (or something advocating like that :) -
TERAS has part of it's clusters running linux....
Check out SARA: TERAS' is a 1024-CPU system consisting of two 512-CPU SGI Origin 3800 systems. This machine has a peak performance of 1 TFlops (1012 floating point operations) per second. The machine will be fitted with 500MHz R14000 CPUs organized in 256 4-CPU nodes and will possess 1 TByte of memory in total. 10 TByte of on-line storage and 100 TByte near-line StorageTek storage will be available. 'TERAS' will consist of 44 racks, 32 racks containing CPUs and routers, 8 I/O racks and 4 racks containing disks.
The fun part: parts of this huge machine are running Linux :)

Windows window-Alpha-Blending :)
With my OnATopp tool found on http://unfix.org/projects/onatopp/ you can easily set Alpha Blending for every window and also the OnATopp bit for letting the window be kept on-top.
Check out this screenshot for a cool example. Unfortunatly I didn't have a Famke Janssen background ready, but Gail Porter will do :)

/dev/changer
And what about my
/dev/changer ???
Apparently there is no more room in the kernel?
see http://unfix.org/jeroen/unfix/proje cts/changer/

Where is /dev/changer support?
Hmm still wondering why
/dev/changer can't be put into the kernel tree, even the 2.3.x tree seems to stable for it...
See /dev/changer
Maybe when it's in the experimental 2.3.x tree, maybe that more people would try it which would speed development up as more hardware can be tested... There is a multiple-cdrom-status in 2.3.x which is stated as "beginning of multimount-support" while /dev/changer is working since 19 May 1999...

Mount all disc's at once with /dev/changer
Yes, thats right, you too can mount all the discs in your cdrom changer at once with the
/dev/changer device driver. There is a kernel patch available here for Linux kernel 2.2.9. Hopefully this driver will make it into a kernel source tree near you!
