    That kernel panic was a device driver bug in, I believe, the tulip ethernet drivers, and it was fixed in 2.2.14

    "Stream.c is just a network flood. Its just like a ping -f storm that goes through firewalls better." is what Alan Cox says about it.

    I'd recommend skipping 2.2.14 - the interactive performance is a bit screwed up. Try the latest 2.2.15pre instead.

  11. Re:Guess you've never ever made a spelling mistake on Update on Uruguay "Linux" Trademark Situation · · Score: 1

    I wince at the fact that you, a person with english as a second language, actually used the right word at the end of the second sentence, when far too often I've seen the word "complimentary" used in the place of "complementary" (or compliment in place of complement) by people with english as a first language.

    Incidentally, please note that all spelling flames are required to have at least one spelling errer.

    But the US patent system sucks nonetheless. (I'm not sure about America as a whole - I don't know what the Canadian, Mexican, and South American patent systems are like.)

  16. Re:Nary a kind word for CoS? on Anti-Scientology Site Shut Down · · Score: 1

    The reason the Germans have to crack down on Scientologists is because they have a stated aim of world domination. This is not permitted by the German Constitution because of the events of WWII.

    And the fact that the rest of Europe is doing similarly could be because the Scientologists have yet to find adequate blackmail material such as was allegedly used to gain tax exempt status in the US.
