USB 2.0 For Linux

SilentTone writes: "PCWorld is reporting that USB 2.0 or high speed USB will be hitting Linux first half 2002. Intel is already providing space on its Pentium 4 motherboard for the USB 2.0 controller. With a transfer rate of 480Mbps (more than firewire's 400Mbps) it seems promising." Update: 09/04 23:02 PM GMT by H : So, somewhere between my preview and going live, I seem to have "lost" the link - if you find it, please post below. I'm looking - in the meantime, this is a good Linux and USB tutorial, and Blue Cat Linux is supporting USB 2.0. HA! Found it - story updated.

Re:once again.....GNU/Linux lags BSD

[garett_spencley]

Will someone please hurry up and mod this freak a troll please, I'm all out of mod points! I'm very sick and tired of hearing BSD zealots bash linux.

I have nothing against BSD. As a matter of fact I LOVE BSD. I have deployed all the major BSD variants (Free, NET and Open) and their merits are undisputable. But for crying out loud this flaming is FUCKING ANNOYING!

And the funny thing is that what you guys accuse Linux users of you are guilty of yourself! I'm thinking in particular of the 1337 h4x0r attitude. While a number of Linux lusers have been guilty of this in the past I'm seeing more and more BSD lusers doing the same thing. By bashing Linux! "I'm so 1337 u 1inUx users 5ucK! Switch to BSD! It's awesome. It doesn't suck like linux!"

So please shut up and stop being hypocrits. BSD is great but so is Linux. Get over it! No one wants to hear your whining.

Now someone please mod this post as offtopic.

P.S Oh and for the record. Regarding my first paragraph: I'm also sick of hearing Linux users bash MS.
