  1. Alpine Linux on Outlining Thin Linux · · Score: 2

    I used to use Gentoo minimal installs but recently discovered Alpine Linux (http://alpinelinux.org/) which is even better.

  2. tunnel TCP/IP in mails on Ask Slashdot: Remote Support For Disconnected, Computer-Illiterate Relatives · · Score: 1

    Use some livecCD or Alpine Linux to create your own CD, and tunnel IP in mails for the fun :D If the latency is less than the TCP time-out you might even get a decent ssh connection.

  3. Re:Poll idea on Linux 3.17-rc2 Release Marks 23 Years of the Linux Kernel · · Score: 1

    22 years give or take, started with SLS, can't remember which version probably older than this one ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/hist... as I can vaguely remember kernel 0.97 but SLS 1.03 has kernel 0.98pl.

    FWIW this is the first Linux distro (there are earlier versions but I didn't bother to search) ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/hist...

    And the place to get your kernel was ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/linux/

  10. Re:"Linux Command Line Tirckery" HA! on Windows 8 Features With Linux Antecedents · · Score: 1

    Your Linux seems really easy, I usually have to do mkdir -p /mnt/iso && modprobe loop && mount -o loop /this/is/really/a/long/path/LiveCD-2012.iso /mnt/iso But mine is one line shorter :p

  12. Re:what it is on Got (Buffer) Bloat? · · Score: 2
  13. kvm and ksm on Linux Kernel 2.6.32 Released · · Score: 1

    kvm (with a little patch) supports it, running it right now with 5 guests and have 53K pages which are shared. # cat /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing 53714 That's ~200MB for about 1,5GB memory used on the host. Now I can't figured out how many times those pages are shared, so I can't calculated the actual memory saved (it's between 200MB and 4x200MB).

  21. VoIP on ASUS Integrates VOIP and PSTN Into Motherboards · · Score: 1

    Or use an ATA. In combination with a open source softswtcih (Freeswitch, Yate, OpenPBX.org, ...) you can do some amazing stuffs like FoIP (T.38 with OpenPBX.org), voicemail (to email), conference, forward to VoIP/mobile/PSTN, .... Why are people sticking to a non-open protocol and non-free program is beyond me, there are so much open and free stuff that are much better.

  24. FF2 on Firefox 2.0 Posted a Day Early · · Score: 1

    I have running this for half day now (the real one not rc3), it feels a bit smoother. The sitebar add-on does work and they change the ctrl-s key binding so sage kb short-cut foes not work. Everything else is working as expected and build0in spell-checker is doing its work. It's a great release/
