Q: Can I run XFS on top of LVM?
Yes you can but you need to use a patch for LVM because the XFS kernel contains stephen tweedies sard patches which change the format of/proc/partitions. Also for using XFS on LVM you should not enable the kiobuf option in the kernel XFS compile options. You may get a patch (created by William L Jones) to start from at
I just got back from the talk, and I have to say that I found Rob to be quite an engaging speaker, even if he wasn't able to be honest with the audience about how 'phyiscally close' he and Jeff Bates were when Slashdot was starting...
The HomeGen 7000 also produces less than half the amount of carbon dioxide per kWh produced by traditional coal- and oil-burning power plants, lessening your home's global warming impact.
(Emphasis added.)
If what they're saying is true, then it's less carbon dioxide per unit of power. This sounds good...

I have a feeling it's going to be something close to a 386 running your fridge. There are sweet spots for price/performance in distributed computing, and I doubt that they're going to be in your toaster processor.
The scope of this discussion is,however, clear. We are interested in software that: Is available from at least one source without payment (which does notpreclude other sources from offering it for payment, for example topeople who want a distribution on CD rather than downloaded, or require commercial support).
This is a profound and fundamental misunderstanding of what Free Software is. *No one* is obligated to give you a copy of any piece of Free Software. Rather, no one is permitted to prevent you from doing so yourself. If no one made emacs downloadable over anonymos ftp, there would be no violation of the GPL. If anyone told *me* that I couldn't it would. Simple really.
I know very little about gcc, but I do know that the PPC also has a large number of registers compared to x86 chips. Does anyone know if ppclinux is at a similar disadvantage?
Under a plea agreement, U.S. District Judge Mariana Pfaelzer prohibited Mitnick for three years after his release from any access to computers, cellular telephones, televisions or any equipment that can be used for Internet access. She said that she thought Mitnick would be unable to earn anything above minimum wage.
IANAP, but here goes: The light that you get from these kinds of materials is the result of electrons dropping from higher energy states to lower. When this happens, the energy is converted electromagnetic radiation. With the useful stuff this happens to be visible light. In any event, this happens at the atomic level, rather than the molecular.

I've heard that a significant motivation is a threatened script writers' strike. Reality = no writers to worry about in execs' eyes.

If something like that happened, I'd cancel my subscription. *Especially* if it was Wired. (Wait... I already did.)
Something as brazen as what you suggest should loose them customers.
Hey! That money should be going to the criminal's victims. Poor emotionally traumatized Sun should be compensated...
