FAT32 supported was added a long time ago to fips and the kernel. The vfat driver transparently accesses fat32 filesystems as well as vfat filesystems. Just make sure MSDOS and VFAT are enabled during the kernel compile.
I bet if it wasn't a computer company but a biomedical or something company, the kid would be banned from working by child labor activists. It just shows how little people care about some computer company, while the role of inducible nitric oxide synthase in neoplastic apoptosis is on 60 minutes every weekend.

The surest sign that intelligent life exists is that it hasn't tried to contact us.
At 13 megs don't expect to run this client except for bedtime. Don't expect to find extraterrestrial life until 13 meg level 2 caches come along either. Since it's still better than trying to crack passwords, I'll probably dump the rc5 client for a while.
With the recent publicity on bedroom hackers ISP's came up with some new rules. Mainly, they give you 9Megabits/sec, but the only software you can use on their LAN is Windows running a MSIE client.
All I want is a movie with a real live heroine in it. Not another 90's movie about some rich guy who rescues the cocktail waitress from poverty or some housewife who rediscovers the value of housewifedom like all the movies are promoting these days. This Matrix movie looks like a heroine movie but the heroine looks too scrawny.
How do you get arrested for exploiting a security hole in an operating system that lacks any kind of security? If the maker of that operating system owns all the world's computing assets. If you want to live on this planet, start kissing Microsoft's ass.
In case you couldn't figure it out as it leapt like a blatant Microsoft promotional ad from every single one of his interviews: JWZ didn't agree with the direction Netscape was going. JWZ is foremost an end user guy. He doesn't care about toolkits, licenses, clean code, and programming languages. The only thing driving this guy is how well the user interfaces with the program.
Netscape on the other hand had this huge PR campaign which relied on toolkits, licences, clean code, and programming languages. When you look at it, the result of a year of hacking on this campaign looks really horrible to the user but to the programmer its a dream come true. All GTK in ANSI C licenced under something with the word "public" in it. Obviously JWZ wasn't interested in all the politics and wanted to take it back to the end users.
His last interview was like a battle, with the interviewer from a Linux site constantly pressing him about GUI toolkits and choice of languages and "But wasn't motif really badly engineered?", with JWZ constantly changing the subject to usability and "But motif worked".
If that SGI logo is SGI's vision of effective marketing, we'd better get used to depending on Microsoft for what little pittance of an economy they already give us.
Interesting that for the last three years of the DOJ trial, 90% of the world economy has continued to depend on Microsoft just as it always has. Interesting how the renamed divisions and three years of hot air in Washington aren't causing massive uninstallations of Windows around the world. So far the price of an operating system is still $250, not exactly a closeout now that those divisions have different names.
Sure the combined bandwidth of the world is a few million times greater than it was in 1995 but bandwidth per user has dropped to near ly 0.
In 1995 a download from the USA during business hours came at about 3k/sec. Today the same distance now comes in at about 300 bytes/sec during business hours. The commercial internet is like a bottomless money pit. New backbones that take years to plan, approve, and bury are instantly saturated by the time they go online and there's no solution to the infinite recursion in sight.

Post a job opening for a Linux user on Slashdot. At least they're opening up more than the low level software testing positions that Linux users at Apple are known to get stuck in.
I agree with the RMS immaturity. I picked up on the slight tinge of bitterness in RMS's attitude long ago, but now it looks like this guy is going over the line. RMS is getting older and older. He's still paying rent. He can't afford a replacement for his beat up laptop. He can't afford clothing. His gut hangs out like a spare tire. He's never going to get married.
3000 miles away Linus is young and as buff as a linebacker. Linus got married younger than most. Linus makes more money than most physicians. Linus has all the latest hardware. Linus is on eternal vacations.
Indeed, there's some grounds for bitterness on RMS's part as far as the GPL goes, but he's exascerbated it to the point of naming licenses the "Lesser GPL", blasting Linus for getting celebrity status, ranting about deserving all the credit for all things big and small.
5 years ago I would have agreed with RMS. He had just coded emacs and contributed a lot to GCC. Times have changed, more due to his developing insanity than any wrongdoing of Linus's. RMS needs to stop ranting and calling names and go back to coding. In the end Linus's prosperity won't be the result of unfair credit but his only competitor turning into a lunatic.
Maybe it isn't just the Linux users but all users who operate servers on your lan that you should focus on. LAN managers tend to dismiss Win95 users even though Win95 has the worst security of them all.
Maybe you should make people take a test or a class in network security before they can operate servers. Give some grad students a job. I somehow doubt as many bedroom servers are run by idiots as you think. There seems to be a surplus of gifted sysadmins these days according to job listings.
What's with the Reply button? Now I can't reply in a new window but have to wait 10 minutes for a comments box to download at 300 bytes/sec on a single window.
As for groups of albino geese generating the pages, I'll accept nothing but bona fide Microsoft Certified System Engineers generating my pages!
These guys are geniouses. Time to bring in government protection and start banning mp3 advertisements from magazines. That's how business in the 21st century works. If someone makes a better tasting ice cream, sue them. If someone's web site gets more hits than yours, firewall it.
If they're aliasing http links to ftp to make it look like there's no web page associated it's working. They were http links to my mp3's, before I shut the server down. Get an http server and some mp3's and try it out.
Remember when 32 bit processors came out the world was perfectly content to stick to 16 bit Win 3.1 for years until Microsoft "invented" the 32 bit OS. When Intel finally "invents" 64 bit chips the managers and CEO's of the world are going to be perfectly happy running a 32 bit OS for many years to come indeed They already are if you count Sparc and Alpha.
They don't return the page that owns the mp3. They just link the mp3, which makes it very difficult for the artist to get credit. How many popular mp3 players display tags? Lycos should put some effort into making it look like they're not trying to give themselves credit for the mp3's.

And RMS is cutting his beard off, Microsoft is filing bankruptcy, and the next president is a woman.
