  1. Re:Driver Management on Linux Kernel Devs Offer Free Driver Development · · Score: 1

    So, what webcam do you use?

  2. I too am frustrated on The Future of Closed Source Software and Linux · · Score: 1

    I'm usually frustrated because by the time I've used the paid for Windows crowd software for nearly a year or longer I'm being nagged to pay more to upgrade to the next release for reasons other than my own.

  3. Re:intent matters on Felony For Refreshing a Web Page? · · Score: 1

    So, if he wanted everyone to holding down the f5 key to break my arm (his intent) then that would be grounds for an assult charge?

    His intent was to crash a server which apparently the f5 key couldn't do. So even though the intent was a crash, it didn't happen because I say it shouldn't happen with good code (no more that hitting the f10 key once can crash a server, which it could with bad server code but shouldn't).

    And btw, if I'm standing around heaving furniture being moved I can expect the slight possibility of an arm being broken. That makes me, the risk taker, more at fault for the broken arm than you, the furniture mover.

  4. Re:Portage in Solaris? on Gentoo Announces OpenSolaris Port · · Score: 1

    Why would you stop using it because there are some stray packages in your system? Yeah, it's a bit sloppy but I guess I just don't see that as an issue important enough to stop using a particular distro.
    And yes, this has been addressed with some Gentoo utilities.

  5. Re:Is Firefox that much less bloated? on Planning For Mozilla 2.0 · · Score: 1

    I saw that you use FlashBlock, which interested me. Doing investigation finds:

    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=228 55 7

    which mentions Flashblock and Mozilla crashes. Not sure if this addresses your situation but hopefully it does.
