I don't know what problems you've had, but I run it on Hardy just fine. You have to use an open-source alternative to some of the VMWare tools in the guest, but if you use the vmware-any-any-update patch it runs just fine. I have 2 machines running 4 vms in my attic on Ubuntu Hardy Server with VMWare Server 1.0.8.
Actually isn't it more like Nissan shipping all Maxima's with a V6 engine, plugs wires and all, and selling some of them at a lower price with the engine controller programmed to only fire 4 of the 6 cylinders? You get all the weight of the V6, but only the power of the 4 banger.
You can still download and install 1.x. I do. I use it because I can do a headless desktop install accessed only through the client and run an autologin gnome session to run azureus plus plugins. Still haven't found a server side solution that meets my needs without a lot of scripting which I don't have time to do.
Kernel security updates would tend to be local exploits. The kernel really doesn't interact with the network very directly. Definitely install app updates, but pinning a kernel version when all your hardware works isn't a big deal.
You could always pin your kernel version in the package manager. Nothing says you HAVE to install every last update the distro maker pushes out to you:)
I've been thinking, wouldn't this make a shit hot box to do h.264 encoding on? Isn't that one of the things that the cell is optimized for? SMP across 9 cell cores doing h.264 encoding and I know when encoding a dvd that handbrake uses virtually no memory on my dual core amd64 box. Just an honest question.
No one had noticed before because no one had tried to do that stuff.
Shock, you mean an untested, unused feature in their driver didn't get the bugs worked out of it till someone tried to use it? That's SO different to a an open source driver. nVidia has been the best thing to happen to the linux desktop since sliced bread. I can play 3d games, accelerated video, and have a slick composited desktop that doesn't freeze every time I try to switch terminals. Any time I tried to do those things with any other product I came up short.
IANAL, but wouldn't they only have evidence that you transferred the data to THEM, which as a rep of the copyright holder, is not illegal? Seems a catch-22 since they can't see the data going elsewhere and any data going to them is *TECHNICALLY* not an infringing transfer.
It was originally a PC title that had been under development for 3+ years (I was following a lot of articles about it) that was meant to be something close to planetside in scope. It was going to be the Ultimate pc multiplayer shooter and you can see the potential with the vehicle combat and really well balanced weapons. Then it got stuck on a console forever when bungee ran out of money and MS swooped in seeing the potential of the franchise.
Why does the Open Group stand for this since they are the trademark owner of Unix and one of SCO's major claims is that they "own" the Unix business? Am I missing something fundamental here?
Boxee (as I finally garnered an invite) does not stream netflix movies on linux. It relies on Silverlight 2.0 support which is not in Moonlight. The previous stories about this were based on badly worded blogs.
Oh bullshit. You're picking nits about who pays the premium. Like I said, its as much welfare as your heavily employer funded health insurance. What you think major medical costs $70 a month these days?

If I draw unemployment for six months once, it is far below what I pay into the system over my 40 year career. Federal: 0.008 * 7000 * 40 = $2,240. State(every one since its Federally approved): 0.054 * 7000 * 40 = $18,200. Total: 1I'd have to be unemployed for a 38 weeks to use up my contribution ($470/wk is what I got out of the State of Californian which pays the most out). Unemployment lasts (standard) for six months (24 weeks). Nice try!
It's a Criminal Act Copyright law protects the value of creative work When you make illegal copies of someone's creative work, you are stealing and breaking the law.
Most likely, you've seen the FBI warning on a movie DVD or VHS cassette--well, the same applies, with equal force, to music. If you have been illegally reproducing or distributing copyrighted music, maybe you should give it a closer read.
Federal law provides severe civil and criminal penalties for the unauthorized reproduction, distribution, rental or digital transmission of copyrighted sound recordings. (Title 17, United States Code, Sections 501 and 506). The FBI investigates allegations of criminal copyright infringement and violators will be prosecuted.
You won't find these messages on music you've downloaded illegally, but the full weight of the law applies just the same.
So you really should find out:
* What the law says and what it means.
* How you could be breaking the law.
* How severe the penalties can be.
* What The Courts say.
* What's Okay... And What's Not.
What the Law Says and What it Means If you make unauthorized copies of copyrighted music recordings, you're stealing. You're breaking the law, and you could be held legally liable for thousands of dollars in damages.
That's pretty important information to have, considering how serious it would be if you were caught and prosecuted by the authorities or sued in civil court. It's even more important that you understand that when you illicitly make or distribute recordings, you are taking something of value from the owner without his or her permission.
You may find this surprising. After all, when you're on the Internet, digital information can seem to be as free as air. But the fact is that U. S. copyright law prohibits the unauthorized duplication, performance or distribution of a creative work.
That means you need the permission of the copyright holder before you copy and/or distribute a copyrighted music recording.
What the Courts Have to Say
For all the public confusion, a long series of court rulings has made it very clear that it's against the law both to upload and download copyrighted music without permission.
It doesn't matter whether you're dealing with sound recordings, pictures, software or written text. The courts have consistently ruled that P2P and other unauthorized uploading and downloading inherently amount to copyright infringement and therefore constitute a crime.
Don't you have a better way to spend five years and $250,000?
Examples of easy ways you could violate the law:
* Somebody you don't even know e-mails you a copy of a copyrighted song and then you turn around and e-mail copies to all of your friends.
* You make an MP3 copy of a song because the CD you bought expressly permits you to do so. But then you put your MP3 copy on the Internet, using a file-sharing network, so that millions of other people can download it.
* Even if you don't illegally offer recordings to others, you join a file-sharing network and download unauthorized copies of all the copyrighted music you want for free from the computers of other network members.
* In order to gain access to copyrighted music on the computers of other network members, you pay a fee to join a file-sharing network tha

sudo apt-get autoremove every now and again. Stick with apt-get.
You had your xorg.conf set up improperly, do some googling and you'll confirm this. It works pretty darned flawlessly now.

Wafers are a disk, so pi * 7.5^2 = 176.7144375 cm^2 so you get area/150000 = 0.00117809625 cm^2/led.
Also, 1 LED != 1 LED "lightbulb" is also != 1 LED with package size.

Just my two cents.
Please point to the last time yer "huntin rifle" controlled the US Government?

Because a homosexual person might not relocate to a state where their partner can't get their health insurance.
Why the fuck is this presented in Flash? It has NO added value and makes the material harder to digest.
sadly yes:

Methinks your sig is a bit stale, but since you want to advertise, the new premier hasn't happened yet, its returning on January 21st, 2009!
That's picking nits pretty thinly. "Employer provided welfare?" C'mon, I guess your salary is welfare too then?

Whoops, total $18200

Wrong, they claim that it is criminal copyright violation under Title 17 Sections 501 and 506.
