SMP On OpenBSD, Coming Soon

Posted by timothy on from the faster-if-you-pay dept.

Lord of the OpenBSD writes "At long last, SMP development on OpenBSD looks to be gearing up. One person is now doing full-time funded development on SMP. Project leader Theo de Raadt is now asking for funding for a second developer. Theo has announced that SMP support for i386 is planned for the OpenBSD 3.6 or 3.7 release, the first of which is due in 8 months."

    Seriously, not to totaly troll, but we need ALOT of linux support, and much less other *nix and W#nd0ws support.
    example: A Nero like interface for linux
    Places like Kazaa realease native clients for linux
    and quality dvdXcopy for linux, all native no wine.

    Silly mods probably didn't understand the humor... If anything that should have been Redundant, not Offtopic. (although redundancy doesn't normally seem to bother the mods very often)

    Maybe there should be a 'Score:-1, Old Joke' moderation.

    for burning? have you tried k3b, the interface is a hybrid of roxio and nero giving you the best of both worlds and almost all of the functionality (its still in beta).

    Why the hell was this ever modded up, anyway?

    Slashdot requires you to wait 20 seconds between hitting 'reply' and submitting a comment.

    It's been 17 seconds since you hit 'reply'!

    OK, I'll take a wiz and try again...

    what do you mean why the hell was I ever modded up? Those with "excellent" karma get a +1 bonus, and I think they may have less restrictions with respect to waiting. I haven't run into the posting time limit in ages.
