  1. Re:Not to mention on A GNU/Linux Distro Needing Windows To Install? · · Score: 1

    No. Most, if not all ASUS motherboards have bios flasher that can read the bios from a USB stick.

  3. Re:For the rest of the world... on Open Source Car — 20 Year Lease, Free Fuel For Life · · Score: 1

    gallons are a bit more than 4 liters, if I remember correctly, and a pound is about half a kilo.

  4. Re:Better off not working for them... on In France, Fired For Writing To MP Against 3 Strikes · · Score: 1

    I think the problem is not that the MP forwarded the e-mail, but that the Culture's Minister forwarded it to TF1. (I am french, but not a french lawyer)

  5. Re:Lot harder to sense trolling in non-mother lang on A Look At the Growth of MMOs In 2008 · · Score: 1

    Yeah, the french in that post is fairly bad. I'd say it comes from some translation engine. (I'm french)

    Of course not... That is only on laptops, or on motherboards with integrated video. those wasted 512MB are due to a 32bits limitation.

  9. Re:which IP address? on Man Uses Remote Logon To Help Find Laptop Thief · · Score: 1

    He had a dyndns or no-ip client running in the background?

  10. Re:Now show them why OSS is good on VIA Releases FOSS Graphics Driver · · Score: 1

    Actually, I did. Last I checked, "next step" used like it was means that 3D support is not (yet) there.

  11. Re:Now show them why OSS is good on VIA Releases FOSS Graphics Driver · · Score: 1

    Well, I think a simple start would be to come up with a nice polished compiz theme and desktop (like a good avant dock with some nice icons) that uses this driver to its fullest.

    That might be a bit hard, considering this driver doesn't do accelerated 3D...

  12. Fakes are already very common on Counterfeit DFI Motherboards Surface In Indonesia · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I work in a computer shop, and two weeks ago, a guy tried to sell us 1000 "corsair" RAM modules for a very cheap price. Before buying, my boss asked to test them: 8 out of ten wouldn't even boot the computer, and the two that did were actually "kingston" modules on which the brand name had been removed and replace by "Corsair". The packaging looked exactly the same as legit "corsair"'s. The RAM in fact was the rejects from some factory rebranded and resold.
