    It's got the latest versions of everything else, so why no KDE 3.4?

    Knoppix has helped me a few times to rescue systems for my friends foolish enough to keep using Windows. Since I've received great benefit at no cost, I keep a torrent of it perpetually running (almost 98GB to date). Even if you can't contribute code directly, you can use the bandwidth that you already pay for to benefit others and, indirectly, the Knoppix developers.

    Karma... it's not just for slashdot any more.

  3. Stupid female killed? by rduke15 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Has that stupid/annoying/embarrassing woman, talking during boot and shutdown been killed at last, or at least silenced?

    OK, I'm too hard. And maybe in real life, she's a really nice person. Let's just remove the audio file of her voice and hang the idiot who recorded it and put it on the CD.

    Or is the above mentioned idiot Mr Knopper himself? Well, we don't want to hang _him_.

    There must be a solution...
