This is most likely a problem with your macrovision-enabled DVD playback software, and most likely is unrelated to sp2. if you uninstalled SP2 and then it worked, rather than rolling back (using system restore), perhaps you have a point, but regardless I'd probably just throw your dvd playing software out the window and get something better, if I were you.
Due to some athlonxp errata I would imagine you are experiencing a CPU bug and not one in 7-max, but I'm going to try it on my opteron (32bit XP) just to see:)
I have a hardware 3com modem, have for a few years, and when I was on dialup my longest uptime record was 64 days or so. I'll find the screenshot someday;)
took me 40 minutes to pick a SL name (choices taken), and now that I've picked one and signed up, I've forgot what the darn thing is... and shucks, I can't view the knowledge base without logging in... which requires... wait for it.. my SL name!
Brilliant. Not to mention that their confirmation email is nowhere to be seen...
sure is, but sending a message to your users would prove to be slightly difficult. I guess you could interrupt browsing or something like that w/ a popup. (messenger service is usually disabled, you'd have to use javascript).
It would be wise also to scan someone's open shares and hidden shares ([c$,d$,...]) when they log on, but that would require a bit of shell scripting.
It is never wise to run copper anything between buildings or any kind of outside fixture without significant protection. Differences between ground voltages and the risk of lightning make it very unintelligent. It's far wiser and safer (albeit more expensive) to use something like 802.11a with directional signal boosted antennas for signal distribution and then distribute 802.11b for general use. I imagine the cost of a router with two interfaces for each access point is cheaper than your insurance bill will be after you burn someone else's house down.
10.n.x.2 is a fantastic idea but as the LAN itself is not segmented you will be stuck with tons of netbios traffic. I'm not exactly sure how to segment WLANs except after machines have left the 300ft radius. If, however, APs can filter traffic, then you're set.
Having hung around lkml for the past four years or so, it's actually become apparent that 2.6 is considerably slower on older hardware and does use more memory. _deepfire on oftc has some benchmarks and some complaints.. I'll post some links once I'm finished finding them =o)
Note that by slower I mean throughput. Interactivity gets a boost because of preempt and some HZ changes, but even an HZ bump on a slow machine can cause further slowdowns.
I'm not sure if the problems _deepfire was proving (with valid testcases) have been fixed, but they very well may have.
ALSA isn't a daemon- it's a hardware interface. Sound daemons (like ARTS) provide functioanlity above what ALSA offers- like software-level mixing and effects. It's the only one I'm running right now, no bloat here.
RedHat only bumps versions when there are binary incompatibilites. Thus you can expect to install RPMs from 7.2 on 7.3 without major problems, but they won't work on 8.0.
I don't know about you, but as a kernel developer, I use slower than that for benchmarking. I have a 486sx33 with 4MB of RAM that I boot every few days to run UNIXbench...
Or is it that people consider P133s slow these days...?

One helluva present.
Because this version is only a number bump and a fix to mod_include, I'd be doubtful as to whether this would affect mod_ssl at all.

interestingly enough I went through about half of those on xpsp2 and could only get one to halfway work. looks like microsoft is picking up the ball.
there are two gcf files. one contains a bunch of dlls and hl2.exe, the other wouldn't open with the tool I was playing with.
:)
It looks like it's all there to me

Not to start a flamewar, but the most common component failure is still the power supply.

I can back him up on his 29 days story.

Thanks troll, I'll bite.

Smart Cards are used in computer security, among other things. Google is your friend...
Waitaminute, he's a troll
Kinda offtopic but I picked one of these up for $10. the price was right. As for the ad? two clicks...
I very much agree.
brought forth This beauty. Now to dig deeper and find an OSS game or two...
hugely powerful omnidirectional antennas are only good for clients with powerful enough antennas to send data back.
You'd need to use hugely powerful directional signals on a different frequency (802.11a) and a couple of smaller APs in order for that to do any good.

...then sit back and smile.
ALSA does, FYI, have software mixing...
take a look at dmix.
Of course, modern sound cards really ought to have hardware mixing.
