Actually Xprint shipped with XFree86 was broken for a long time but recently was fixed up and works quite well. If you want great printing with Mozilla it's a must.
I have a dumb question. If domain names can be Unicode how will such characters be represented in an HTTP URL. According to RFC 2396 there is no defined way to represent anything but US-ASCII in an HTTP URL. Unless there is a way to negotiate an alternative character set escaping would have to be used like this UTF-8 escaped example http://www.c%d0%beke.com. Or you could UCS-2BE escape it like: http://www.c%043eke.com. What does your browser see when you mouse over these? In IE I get "http://www.cke.com" and "http://www.c3eke.com".
Does this mean the domain names are ISO-8859-1 or can they be Uniocde? If they are Unicode, how do you represent it in an HTTP URL? And do browsers support such a thing?
[Dell]... expects then to fail after 1.5-2 years. The life span is mostly based on usage, more cycles, shorter life. However, batteries that are never used will still fail in about the same time frame.
I have an IBM 560 purchased in 1997. Whey I travel once or twice per year I use it and the battery still works fine. I just used in in Nov. At least in Windows it works. In Linux the machine starts doing APM hula-hoops. That's probably because I'm still running RH 5.2;~)
Can someone explain to me why exactly TCPA is bad? No one disputes the consumer-unfriendly motivations behind the people pushing TCPA but quite frankly I don't see anything fundamentally wrong with the concept of it. We're bascially taking about secureing the machine so that programs can operate in a well defined state and nodes can communicate securely. What is wrong with that? Yes, you will not be able to rip that audio stream. Yes, you will not be able to boot that bootleg copy of Windows. So what? If you want to get into a philosophical argument about that you will loose. I think TCPA would be GOOD for users because you will have the option to do much more significant things. Do you feel confortable buying things on-line? I cringe every time I punch in my credit card number. You're whole VPN is compermised if one node is cracked. All of the negative arguments assume that activating TCPA would be *mandatory*. This is NOT true. It's CBDTPA that mandates securing devices capable of playing or recording copyrighted material. So what are the real dangers of TCPA then? Is the potential for censorship the only argument? Really, educate me.
Cool, as one of the few Girls Going into CS this looks like an excuse to use my new DIY Ambient Light Keyboard Kit. I just have to Recycle a Pay Phone into a MAME Emulation Console with one of these New Generation Cases. If only I could find a Water Cooled Power Supply. Mmmm.
Finally, someone with a more rational viewpoint. No one disputes the consumer-unfriendly motivations behind TCPA but quite frankly I don't see anything fundamentally wrong with it. They want to secure the machine so that nodes can communicate securely. What is wrong with that? Yes, you will not be able to rip that audio stream. Yes, you will not be able to boot that bootleg copy of Windows. So what? If you want to get into a philosophical argument about that YOU WILL LOOSE. I think TCPA would be GOOD for users because you will have the option to do much more significant things. Do you feel confortable buying things on-line? I cringe every time I punch in my credit card number. Wonder why PayPal is not FDIC insured? All of the negative arguments assume that activating TCPA would be *mandatory*. This is NOT true. It's CBDTPA that mandates securing devices capable of playing or recording copyrighted material. THAT's what you need to look out for. Not TCPA. TCPA is just being pushed because it is a prerequisite. Let's get TCPA and punt CBDTPA and educate people that they should not be fooled by a "Bait and Switch".
I've only been using Linux for about 1.5 years now, and it amazes me how fast things get better in the OSS world recently I installed RedHat 8 on my desktop and laptop... Oh the beauty...n 1 year its gone from taking 1-3 days to get a desktop linux system really ready for production to about 30 minutes
Ok, I like Linux too but has it occurred to you that it took 1-3 days initially because your hardware was brand-spakn'-new whereas now it's a perfectly seasoned 1yr old? Obviously if you installed the latest RH kernel with your RH 7.1 sytem it would recognise wireless ok. And more to the point if you happend to have a machine that was 1yr old at the time RH 7.1 came out I bet it would work like a champ out of the box. OSS isn't moving faster. It's simple HW support latency.
MS didn't pioneer XML, saying Open Office can read word documents is technological hair splitting, writing binary memory snapshots to disk is not inefficient, and I don't understand 9) but I'm not trying to make a point, I just don't think your message should be labeled 'Informative'.
And in other news, Microsoft STILL runs some of its servers on FreeBSD, Linux. Check out http://uptime.netcraft.com/up....
These are probably just DNS servers operated by one of their isps. It's kinda hard not to use *BSD or Linux for something like a DNS server that needs absolutly no other configuration than network and bind. Very cheap setup. Just hardware and bandwidth.
I see a lot of positive comments about uClibc and it may work great for you but uClibc has a few sticky points. There are current issues with scanf, floating point format strings with printf, strcol, i18n support (e.g. iconv), some networking stuff, no threads, etc. This is great if you're building little commandline utilities like busybox but don't expect to be able to run something like a Java VM.
I've been looking around for a nice simple API to XML parsers, and I've yet to find one. Java and Perl both have clean, native-feeling XML APIs (JDOM and XML::Simple) but so far, the only C++ ones I've found map closely to DOM's overly complicated object model, and don't "feel" like C++ libraries (they don't use the STL and whatnot). Anybody know of a library along the lines of JDOM except for C++?
Someone posted a neat little class to the expat mailing list ~2yrs ago. Basically it was just a Node class with STL list for children and a hashmap for attributes. It was very small, clean, and was in essance a DOM. It used expat but trust me, the code was so tiny you could use any parser with it. It was like 200 lines of code.
I liked it so much I created the same thing in C called domnode.
Search the expat archives. Wish I could give you more to go on.
If I ever want to create a license agreement I can just refer to their site. They have everything in there. I can just take the bits an pieces that sound official, change the wording a little, and voila! poor mans EULA.

Man I haven't seen anything really funny on ./ in a loong time but you got me with this one. Bravo.
Check the spec dude
And they can't be bending the rules to save bandwidth considering they use tr td end tags which are optional.

Their XPrint work is just as successful.

Here's two good reasons why you want to implement SVG instead of Flash:
SVG is a standard, Flash is proprietary.
SVG can be indexed and searched, Flash can't.
Man I don't know spit about Flash or SVG and I didn't read your link but I'm willing to bet that SVG couldn't touch Flash with a 10 foot pole.

Keewwl! A NEW James Bond movie! Err, what marketeers? Uhhh

NTLM auth is bug 23679, and is scheduled for Mozilla 1.3 alpha
That's good news considering any Java server can now negotiate NTLM Auth using jCIFS and use the credentials to access SMB resources.
