So what do you recommend we do then? Do I have to wait watching my DVDrips until the rip is completely done from now on. Because some yerk patented timeshifting? I regulary record shows with my PVR-250 tvcard. Are you telling me I can't start wathing the show until it's completely done. The steps I take is.
cat/dev/video0 >./show.mpg mplayer show.mpg
What am I suppose to do? I really don't know any other way to watch the show. It isn't even obvious it's good damn the only way. If I happen to pause mplayer in the middle of the show am I infringing on some patent?
Have anyone tried to encode xvid with one of these in 32 and 64 bit, preferebly using Linux? Is there much difference in speed? I'm looking at the 3000+ part as it is cheap but there are zero and none benchmarks to back it up in 64 bit mode.
It's a computer which fits in your normal stereo rack. Why wouldn't linux be good for it. Video, music, emu, photos and whatever. Why would I want a clumsy desktop computer when this thing actully looks quite good. It's as good bet as the MSI one.
Maybe you should understand what we are talking about here before you predict anything.
The XFree86 core team (of which some of them isn't even *nix users anymore) have been disbanded because of there lack of interest in the project. It's really no big deal for XFree.
These cards are good. I'm using a PVR-250 myself with Linux. The quality is the best I have seen in any analog consumer card (they totaly kick bt878 cards butt). It is very good. Linux drivers are good to.
The newest avidemux make this card 100% easy for cutting unwanted commersial from what I record. Higly recommended.
On my box I have Enemy territory, Unreal Tournament, UT2003, Q3, Diablo2, winex and probably some more closed source. Yes, I like those games and I need them.

My first was the Oric 1 too.. Damn.. I didn't even had a casette deck at first. Made you a novel programmer fast at least, for a 8 year old boy that is.
Since everything bundled with windows is free (IE, mediaplayer, explorer, the kernel and whatever) why isn't the cost 0.0 USD. Nothing is free, thats the answer.
MySQL can be installed in about 5 minutes and does what it does very well. Don't compare it to oracle. For more and more applications MySQL is a good choice. In true OSS spirit it's also very stable. I have one MySQL db running 814.71 days without restart serving 1586663205 under that time. Of course it's mostly simple selects. And that's what MySQL does well.
I don't want to install internet Explorer or windows media player to play need for speed, but I have too. What you are describing is not even a open source problem.
Having a nice dependancy checker is part of modern distros. If redhat don't have one you should probably choose something else. Have you tried apt for rpm?
You would also need to conform to UNIX standards. From what I understand it's not just a label. Don't know if Linux is a UNIX in that regard.
When thinking about it, don't know if i want Linux to be a UNIX (as the first thing you do to a UNIX box is installing 100 GNU packages to get some good programs).
Slashdot Mirror
Because 80% of the slashdot articles needs to be about Macs. Apple pay for it.
Trying to stir up some feedback? LOL

no driving force except playing catch up.
So thats why OS X is based on open source code. Are you fucking stupid?

MSI mega pc
No, because redhat is open source he does have an argument.
unofficial redhat patches nr. 1
unofficial redhat patches nr. 2
Now, where are those unofficial windows patches?

The bigest concern is software lockin with patents and DMCA. Making Linux illegal would be MS dream.
The PVR-350 has hardware decoder too.

As it stands today many (if not all) closed source Linux software require x86. That makes x86 quite a bit more attractive than PPC.
Windows Movie Maker (free).
Since everything bundled with windows is free (IE, mediaplayer, explorer, the kernel and whatever) why isn't the cost 0.0 USD. Nothing is free, thats the answer.
But it could just as well be Linux coupled with the X window system. Windows is used in far more computer related places than just Microsoft windows.

These are not Gtk applications by any standard definition
totaly laughable. Can you point me to the standard definition of an application using Gtk. I haven't found one using google.
Quite a paradox since Apple copied 90% of the OS from FreeBSD. So it's FreeBSD Linux copy from. I'm confused.
Since when did CD-Writing became part of Linux?
Yes, like David Wexelblat of XFree. He is in the core team without even using XFree because he is a windows user now. Sounds smart.

Yepp, like no doctype HTML... Noone knows if it's suppose to be human or machine readable.
