  2. APT-GET on Mandrake 9.0 (Dolphin) Is Available [updated] · · Score: 1

    Is there apt-get on mandrake.
    i tried using urpmi but havent found any ftp sources list anywhere which can download dependencies while installing packages.
    Does 9.0 take care of this ??

  3. Re:what's the difference between spyware then on Nielsen to measure TiVo usage · · Score: 1

    I dont have it either. The article said they uploaded the code as part of their regular software upgrade. It may be dormant till u opt-in but the fact that it's there for misuse is scary.

  4. what's the difference between spyware then on Nielsen to measure TiVo usage · · Score: 1

    The very fact that they have uploaded the code to my TiVo makes it spyware without my permission. Today they have an opt-in option. What about tomorrow ??

    How can you trust a company which would upload code to your box without your consent !!!

    One can do lots of interesting stuff using Expect.

    You good old friend can automate this cut-copy-paste-process-Of-ftpOverTelnet just by using Expect. Check out the website for the script which can do that. Basically Expectc allows you to control interactive programs using patterns in an expect script. What this means is that you could control two telnet sessions and exchange information without any user interaction.
