  1. What about the profits? on Debian 2.1 'Slink' Release Postponed · · Score: 1


    Congrats! You just took the grand prize for "most dorky comment from an AC"!

    Well done.

  2. Marketing salesbabble on Playstation 2 to compete with Pentium III? · · Score: 1


    Wow! I managed to not understand a word the Intel spokesman said. I guess that means I'm not allowed to buy a PIII or something, huh?

  3. Where can you get QueSO? on German Alta Vista Servers on Red Hat · · Score: 1


    Yeah, I've found it hard to get into too - for the time being, grab it from here. (Please! No /. effect! My provider would kill me...)

  4. Linux Japan on Fujitsu releases its first Linux App · · Score: 1


    Enjoyed your article on installing Linux on a Vaio in Linux Japan last month.

    (Apologies if I'm mistaken...)

  5. No TCP/IP from Mars. on NASA talking again about manned mission to Mars · · Score: 1


    I didn't see anyone else mention it, so...

    TCP/IP can't be used between Earth and Mars. The time lag is too great - all your packets would be considered to have timed out by the machine on the other end before they got to there.

    I guess someone's going to have to come up with a new protocol.



  6. I totally agree on SGI Open Sources GLX · · Score: 1


    I found one thing that some people won't like - the acronym is GPL....;)


  7. Read the HOWTO? on Voodoo3 Debut · · Score: 1

    I bought a Voodoo2 card yesterday, and had Quake2 running within an hour of installing it in my box.

    You did read the Quake-HOWTO, didn't you? Does the 3DFX test app give you the blue screen? If not, you've set something up wrong...

  8. Fix for sound card problems on Linux 2.2 Released · · Score: 1

    In driver/sound/sb_ess.c, change the "extern int esstype" to "int esstype" and it should make OK.


  9. Water-cooling kits available on Liquid Coolent System For PCs · · Score: 1

    There's a company here in Japan that sells water-cooling kits for Socket7 and Celeron CPUs, and they even have a version that uses a peltier chip between the CPU and the water-cooling unit... I think the kits were called "Poseidon" or something similar.

    A magazine here did a review of the kits a while ago, and they found that even with the peltier chip, the improvement is generally only one bus-speed higher. Try to cool the CPU too hard and you get condensation, too...
