If you are not a developer you should use packages. Of course it's not yet perfect, but who would exepct that. And i've yet to see a desktop without problems.
I'm using DragonFlyBSD as my desktop without problems. You still need the libmap patch for flash, because they think it's too dirty to integrate. http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchi ve/users/200 5-01/msg00045.html
Packages are also availbale either built from netbsd pkgsrc of freebsd ports: wiki.dragonflybsd.org/index.php/Packages I also use the citrus patch to get wide char support: leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~joerg/citrus5.dif f
Packages for use with the citrus patch are availble here: http://ftp.fortunaty.net/DragonFly/inoffici al/port s-packages-libc.so.5-gcc34/All/
If you use gcc34 packages/world everything is compiled with stack protector. It's also very snappy:)
grep through the sources and you'll see it was incompatible before. I don't see the problem with the new "Give us credit where you give others credit" license.
What is/was the problem with Amnon Barak? Maybe there is a chance of a reunited mosix. At least he seems to offer new versions again, now that you made openmosix available.
Split the topic in say three books.
Learning Perl, Perl Cookbook and Programming Perl is the perfect example.
One book for the beginners, one for the more advanced, and one book full of examples for both.
Although the reference part of Programming Perl could have been put in another book.
I don't want to buy books, of whom i already know half of it. I don't want to read how the Internet grew from ARPAnet for the 50th time.
And i don't like books with lots of errors.
Also try to keep in mind that the communities around the topic of your books are really helpful and are glad to contribute to your efforts.
Look at how many people from the Perl cummunity reviewed Larry's Programming Perl.
Can you explain why GNUPro produces faster code?
The information on redhat's site states that it's built from GCC and licencesed under GPL.
They seem to provide a stable and supported binary, that's all.
Nothing about producing faster code.
The problem is that people in companys
get into believing that their company
is more worth than people.
But it is not. Companys shall think about making
profit and gaining power but not at the cost of
anything.
You profit when the company has problems
and there are friends who help the company
and not only vultures ripping it apart.
Don't let your yourself be imprisoned in
the corporate religion as you wouldn't
with any other religion.
Always reminds me of Raistlin Majere
when he had killed all the people in the world
of DragonLance sitting in his tower and crying
because he realized what he did.
BTW Route dampening
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/459/16.html#A24 .4
is a mechanism which gives penalties to a route which is flapping.
Actually I wouldn't say it only helps a bit because there is a point where the system of routers fails (say like domino with a feedback loop) and thus this 'bit' quickly sums up to a byte or so.
Slashdot Mirror
It is running DragonFly, doing about 1 TB per month :)
Guess the upgrade will kill my little uptime :(
9:40PM up 187 days, 4:57, 7 users, load averages: 5.21, 5.16, 5.05

Please read the license, you will notice it does NOT require "All advertising materials mentioning features or use of this software [...]".
grep through the sources and you'll see it was incompatible before.
I don't see the problem with the new "Give us credit where you give others credit" license.
So what? You got the the sources don't you :P
Not like they have it on their frontpage ;) :
How do you pronounce it? Zoo-vaire.
the portsystem is in a CVS repository too: cvsweb
So you can just check out the same revision / day as the system you want to clone, if you can't just copy it over.
Ya, drop the false headline!
No need for digging, it's all there:-).

Did i miss something?
yeah, but how to get an security analyse for free? :)
Announce your softaware is unbreakable
Why not buy only one copy and copy it?
It's copyleft isn't it ?
Your so damn right man.
My condolence to you and your computers.
I feel with you.
just that SCSI doubles or triples the price, huh?
