    Slashdot should post stories on the nightly builds as well. Put them in their own forum, along with the 2.5.xx kernel builds and v0.1x software.

    Sheesh.

      "RC2 is a security upgrade -- previous releases had some sort of hole.

      I heard about this security hole. Heaven forbid though when Microsoft releases less-than-perfect software and you fuckwits start bleeding from every orifice.

      Get a fucking clue and stop whining about superior software burying your quaint little hobby OS.

    From the release notes: "xxxxxxxx.slt is a randomly generated directory name. It's an important security feature."

    Mozilla is good, mozilla is great. The only thing keeping me from using it over Konqueror right now is the fact it Konqueror is highly integrated into KDE - everytime I try to remove it, some other app bluescreens and I have to reboot the computer. And this makes Klippy, the helpfull KDE Koffice assistant, very sad.

    Actually, joking aside, Konqueror kicks butt. I'm simply amazed what the KDE folks have done with the very little time and resources they have had to make such fine suff. If the Mozilla team was as procudtive at the KDE team, Mozilla would be sentient right about now.
