You seriously don't get it do you. He said he is a WEB DEVELOPER. That means he isn't going to want to reboot to some other OS every time he makes some little change to the HTML just to check that it is compatible with any particular browser running under whatever WMware host OS..
It is very nice of bero being here and clearing up some FUD and even answering politely to some of the trolls.
btw: I dislike the trend of people that are using Slackware only because it thinks it makes them cool even when most of these users are more clueless than most RedHat users and only use slack so they can brag about it to their friends...
However I fully respect slackware users that actually know how things work..
I am wondering why RedHat didn't do anything to support this.. This could have been a great publicity move for them. Offcourse RedHat will probably benefit from this move too..
Mandrake is leeching off RedHat.. So maybe this time it is RedHat's time to leech of Mandrake..
Somewhat symbiotic relationship. In the end they all win..
Because Matrox are so cool with regards to opensource, I hereby disclose my little sunshine story to you guys...
I have an integrated Matrox Mystique card on my old box. Based on my experiences with that card I bought a new Matrox G400 16 mb card for my new box which I am also very pleased with...
The Matrox cards have great drivers for both Linux and Windows. Altogheter the Matrox products just smell quality and the display is crystal clear. Acceptable 3D performance (G400), 2D rules at high resolutions.
Needless to say my next graphics card will most certainly be Matrox.
The only thing I regret was that I didn't go with the Dual head version...
A s well as new hardware, the St. Louis show also promises a first peek at the new Amiga OS. It is expected to be based on the Tao Group's Elate operating system, a cross-platform, multimedia OS that runs on a wide variety of low-end hardware, according to sources.
However, Amiga officials would not comment on details about the new operating system.
What means hot grits some thing? I am living from norway next door to alice and I would like to know as I don't have a word book. I understand the part about pouring it in the pants..
Also how is natalie portman connected into "grits" isn't she the actor in star wors the new movie from lucasfilm?
Can't you real networks guys get your act toghether and make a GUI in toolkit that doesn't look like shite.. Say GTK/QT. When Motif/netscape is no longer necesary because of Mozilla I hope I will never ever see one MOTIF app on my desktop again *ever*...
Now if someone updated the look on MOTIF to something more modern that would maybe make the use of MOTIF apps atleast somewhat tolerable..
That would simply not cut it.. Midi and Audio in general requires good response times and low latency. How can you have that when you are running your apps on top of hardware multiplexing?
Looks like sawmill is on its way to becoming the "default" window manager of gnome. But gnome can be used with any window manager. Sawmill is very nice.
You have NetBIOS over NetBEUI, NetBIOS over TCP/IP and NetBIOS over IPX/SPX - Nwlink. I really don't remember the difference/relationship between NetBEUI and the Server Message Block protocol though.
The only thing this is good for, is if you want to run Linux with NetBEUI instead of TCP/IP, but who would want such a perverse thing. Maybe this code could help the samba team understand NetBIOS/NetBEUI even better?
Even though NetBEUI might not be the coolest thing around, I think you should stop whining. It is after all GPL'ed. This thing is a good thing for having compatability with legacy networks. Last time I checked, NetBEUI also has a smaller overhead than TCP/IP making it faster on a small LAN.
Nice to see this. I hope they port the GUI to GTK instead of MOTIF. When mozilla is stable I hope to see no more motif apps on my screen ever.
I really hope RedHat pushes GTK on this one. The reason they haven't used GTK before is probably because the REAL NETWORKS in-house programmers only have Motif experience or something, otherwise they are just plain masochists.
If we can't get GTK, then at least I hope we can get QT, but please not MOTIF. Also it would be nice if they could get rid of the unecesary bloat in the app. I mean c'mon I don't need IRC/web-browser/Emacs and stuff in my *.ra player.
Well, it should not only be deleted. It should be blocked in such a way that no one are able to create accounts that are too similar to high profile open source folks.
I can indeed confirm that there has been fixes to the installer.
The installer in 6.1 was flickering terribly because the installer used some video mode that was terribly unstable with my monitor (I am not talking regular 60hz flicker here, I am talking badly unstable)
Being the nice fellow I am. I posted a bugreport on bugzilla with the full details of my relevant hardware and not a long time ago I received a nice email saying the bug was fixed:-)
The reason I am mentioning this because some people can obviously only whine about things like these instead of taking their time to file a proper bug report.

Why they copy my page to goldenmoments? Yes it is very evil
Oh my god I hate chain mail more than anything onto this earth.
Why I hate chain mail is because it timewise is taking so long on my life.
Looking in inbox all the day and seing chain mail all the day.
Taking all day to deleting inbox for chain mail or I take time to make inbox filter all the day
Then I use all day to make inbox filter and so that day is used also
But very good once you have maked inbox filter because then it is more you can do what you want and not delete inbox all day.
One in a while however there come mail that has no inbox filter.
And then you have to sit down with the inbox filter all day again
This is why I hate chain mail. I really do

NO.. where do you got this information... Xfree86 4 is not in RedHat 6.2, but you can get preview RPM's from Beros site

Use your distro for the right reasons please.
RedHat all the way!
It is probably good ol netscape. LOL

I agree, this just won mandrakesoft a major point in my book.
No kidding, that URL gives this win98 box a bluescreen and a reboot. Is it a IE problem?

I love that movie
I notice that Slackware 7.0 ships with GNU textutils 1.x is there any particular reason for this? Textutils 2.x is in every other distro nowadays.
Can't you real networks guys get your act toghether and make a GUI in toolkit that doesn't look like shite.. Say GTK/QT. When Motif/netscape is no longer necesary because of Mozilla I hope I will never ever see one MOTIF app on my desktop again *ever*...

What do you say lesstif guys?

No way, the BSD init scripts that slackware uses are a mess. RedHat/SuSe/Debian all use sysV style init scripts and for a good reason.
/etc/init.d you have all available services, then you symlink to these from the prefered runlevel /etc/rcX.d. is that so hard?
Ehhh, hundreds of files and symlinks, what are you smoking.

One other thing with slackware is that it *still* doesn't have textutils 2.x.
And don't get me started on that "dialog" based install

This is going to confuse the hell out of all us acronym suckers.
I mean we allready have DHCP - dynamic host configuration protocol.

Why on earth would the want to buy SCO, when they could just grab FreeBSD for free and make their own closed source version?
Rembember, with SCO comes the SCO employees and some of them could be opposed to whatever MS would want to do with their OS.
This is not flamebait, it is simply what the BSD license allows you to do. This is one of the reasons I support the GPL all the way.
