Sun Unveils More Linux Strategies
A number of people have submitted the press release from Sun Microsystems about their latest announcements in conjunction with Linux. Highlights from this one include the promised release of "New single- and multiprocessor systems, to be announced mid-year, will use the x86 architecture and be capable of running thousands of Linux applications natively." As well, they are expanding the Cobalt line of servers, but even more interestingly they are going to "freely offer" parts of Solaris - but no license specified that I saw. They are also releasing "ABICheck", which should check compatibility between Linux/Solaris. C|Net is carrying coverage now as well. And it looks like Lineo and SuSe are going to get competition in the embedded and telecom support area - I wonder if that's tied to the OSDL announcement. It's good to see that they are getting on the right track - now let's hope they stay the course.
p0st!
Hopefully this is my first FP...
... can I hack them to run linux?
Fried Pork Post Anyone? An affront to Islam.
Yummy Moo Shoo Pork.
Try "stratagems."
Of course, since I don't want to be just a nasty troll, I'll post something of merit here.
Can't think of anything. Oh well, moderate me down.
(help help I'm being repressed!)
Did you mean: Stratagems
I just want to commend all of the slashdot editors and story submitters. I just happened on this site for the first time today, and I can't believe all the great news topics that are here.
Finally, I would like to commend all of the slashdot readership for their thoughtful commentary - it really adds a lot to the site. First, you read the story, and then you read all the comments and discussion. What a great idea and I hope this site lives on for a long time!
Slashdot rules, yeah!
Everything Solaris recently posted an article about "Upgrading to ProFTPD" as a replacement for the stock Solaris FTP daemon, based on wu-ftpd...
Well, here I am, anonymous all right. With guys nobody really cares about. They come from the end of the line, most of 'em. Small towns you never heard of: Pulaski, Tennessee; Brandon, Mississippi; Pork Van, Utah; Wampum, Pennsylvania. Two years' high school's about it, maybe if they're lucky a job waiting for them back at a factory, but most of 'em got nothing. They're poor, they're the unwanted, yet they're fighting for our society and our freedom. It's weird, isn't it? They're the bottom of the barrel and they know it. Maybe that's why they call themselves grunts, cause a grunt can take it, can take anything. They're the best I've ever seen, Grandma. The heart & soul.
You're a fucking moron. Seriously, just end it now.
