I seem to remember that ethernet NICs listens on the line and sends packages when its not busy, hence sometimes two or more NICs decides to send at the same time, thats when the collision led lights up.
Token Ring on the other hand passes a token around and a NIC can send only when they have it.
Just my understanging of it though =) Im sure there are lots of people here who can tell me if Im to far of base.
Whats really the difference between having one file with many subsections and many subsections with one file. Im sure it would be possible to have the whole/etc contained in one database and have a/proc like interface, but I dont se the point.
When will it go into the main distribution anyway? I gather its gpl nowdays so it shouldnt be a license issue. After all, its a feature that no mainstream OS is providing currently. I belive QNX and hence AOS5 will though.
So Carmack doesn�t know what he�s doing then?;)

Linux is Not Red Hat

It seemed to me from the latest.plan file that it was metrowerks IDE that got him into linux.
Someone here at/. described it like PIPEs on steroids. That is enabling the unix filosofy of having many really small programs that does one thing really well. I imagine all things like file dialogues, color selectors, spellcheckers and maybe some form of datatypes. Every part of the system using the same component for something, thereby exchanging it fore some other with more features or lesser resource requirements the change will affect the whole system.
I think OS/2 is the best example of this being actually done, and it might be its not absolutly necessary having a DE for this to happen. But then again, what do I know?

Do you mean arstechnica? They did an article some time ago with links to lots of related sources.
Its an obvious reference to the movie with the same title, or if even that was taken from an old expression. (Im not an english native speaker so I wouldnt really know).
You dont slam armstrong for saying "a giant leap for MANkind" do you?
But then again, I cant really say that I know what its like to be a woman in this industry. It might be like one of those thins you smile smugly about the first time but really gets on your nerves the twentieth time.
You could do it with samba, the users would save their files to a network drive like usual (in w98 and NT you can map sambashares using ip instead of wins names). It would also be easy to set up the right create masks to get the permissions right.
Im sure there is a lot of reasons for this not being a good idea, in that case please enlighten me cause I was thinking of setting up something like this
You can give different priorities to various files or directorys, ie so that you dont fill the cache with just mp3s.
You can also preload, that is, if youre going somewhere with your laptop and know youre going to use emacs you can do some magic to make sure all the necessary files are cached.
Clear conscience is nothing but an expensive form of luxury
Actually there is one cache related setting you can only do in the source, something about honoring the "write directly to disc" flag. I turns out windows clients use this bit more often than they should, so theres a big performance gain disabling it. I read it some time ago on the samba site, might not be valid in 2.0
Will the features from the corel filemanager be part of kde2, in that case, will it be corels code or another implementation?
screen is your friend, It saves your ssh sessions even when the net connection fails for a moment.
Will we see mosix or mosix like functionality in the main kernel distributionin the near (far) future? If not, what are the main issues?

besides, the registration is free after all

Could be my scewed interpretation though.

Its been done on windows to reduce loadtimes of applications. I think the first one was called windrenalin but now its part of w98.
http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/Parallel-Processi ng-HOWTO.html
It goes trough a lot of the issues involved, hardware, suitable tasks and existing solutions.
Ive been lurking on the mosix mailing list for a couple of months and I must say its really low traffic. Its not the place where such discussions go.
just the archive, no docs or anything

How about linux.reg.tm ?
Actually Im surprised that reg.tm isnt registrered yet.
Im no ace on this kind of stuff but doesnt the permedia2 chip have som kind of geometry engine?
I have a C compiler that I can run on my HP 95LX, I think its called p(t)gcc (puny or tiny) and is somewhat free. Its not entirely ANSI C though =(
I think www.dejanews.com is run by a bunch of linux machines.
