Don't know if the first point you made is supported by the new LVM specs available in the 2.4.x series kernel (I'm stuck on 2.2.18... damn closed source FastTrack drivers!!!) but the second point is just a matter of bash scripting isn't it? Now that we have devfs all you need to do is tarup the whole root with the exception of/proc and stick it in a bootable tape/cdrom (multiple) with perhaps the addition of a mkinitrd in between (it shouldn't be too much of a problem to write)
The rest of your post was pretty incoherent, I think I'll just let it mean whatever you meant it to mean... or something.
Oh well, guess I needed some sleep.
I'm just ranting about the CD swapping needed to install some RPMs in multi CD distros. Usually I make rpm -ivh £$%, note down the unresolved deps swap CD, install etc... It would be soo much easier if rpm had a clue on which CD contains which RPM... something like the BSD ports tree
As far as installshields is concerned isn't it so that windblows installers haul over all the shared libs a prog needs even if they are already present on the system to be installed? (thus growing the packege beyond insane sizes!)
Yeah WindBlows is easy to administer for Home Use... shure... as hell!
I somehow recall that quite a few IIS were deployed unknowingly by home users just because some popup said the $%& application needed to install some (boh... you're not supposed to know anyway) component from the W2000 CD.
Cool, just made it so much easier for Code Red to FSCK happily.
APROPOS... actually IIS had started to pick up on Apache recently. Could this increase in the installed base incidentally (cough!) derive from some wild dependency in $%&
popular M$ new toy (notepad?)
So back on topic... Shure installshileds are so much easier to use... no dependency prob absolutely... if there is one, WTF just pack in the whole damn shared lib!!!
What's the prob dude? Still stuck on analog modem? Ohh come on, get connected! These aren't the '80 any more, get a spakin' DSL/CABLE now!
Yeah... dj-ing with 3-4 CDs is a major PITA with commandline rpm but so is dl freakin MBs of data
for a stinking shareware!
I just don't undesrtand why can't multi-disk distros put a db of all the rpms so when I try to install a package I get to know what to get from disk1,2,powertools before fishing out any CD! BTW...Many times I had to guess the name of a package to satisfy a dependency such as mistery-lib.so.0.0.1 grrr...
Karma down below zero, huh?
Ok, someone hasn't switched on the brain before watching this page (reading is out of question!)
Had the woman recognized the man at the World Football Championship Final she wouldn't have had a stinking chance of getting hold of the man. It's the
SELECT name,surname FROM driving_license,camera_pics WHERE (driving_license.pic_fingerprint=camera_pics.pic_f ingerprint);
that made the trick. And of course the clueless investigator that simply didn't bother to use
his neurons " 'cause 'piuter says so!" Had they done some basic research they would never have
bothered him (say the butcher would have confirmed the guy buys his fillet steaks since 1974.)
Don't make up the story just to make your point, can you?
Hehm... I don't wanna be racist but all black men look the same to a white caucasian (and vice versa and in all possible ethnic combination... ethnic... I insist, there's no such thing as race!) Guess wo's gonna get tormented. I say the most prejudiced (and less affluent) group... we have the same shit (sorry) here too... Just a coulpe of months ago a (BTW quite cute for her age) young girl and her boyfriend slaughtered her mom and brother with knives. The first thing she did was to blame albaninan thieves (they happen to be highly considered in the 'scare the hardworking citizen' contest)
I'm afraid this crap will only exacerbate xenofobia, paranoia and police brutality (if they can step on your privacy and treat you as a potential criminal or better as an inmate who's gonna stop them from discharging a gun in your belly?)
Whoa... l'e' pesa raga'!

About the last part of the msg... well, you get better wages drilling tunnels for optical fibers compared to what an engineer gets at it's first job at ericsson... and here in Italy, engineering means 7~8 years (average for those that don't give up) living off your parents' back... and of course very few chicks to play with;-)
Hmmm, that's a cure taskbar I see...

You mean the chip has a bunch of DSPs that synthesise the base signals used for tx/rx? Gee... that's cool... should patent it! Now, how 'bout patenting a controller to regulate the intensity ( of heat genrated by a joule effect device, thus avoiding that nasty burnt egg stink!
Sigh...
Hey there, I'm no good programmer at all but the first thing I was told was: "Don't, ever, think of using a fixed lenght char array in the stack to store input; there's a HEAP of memory out there, use it!" It's like putting square wheels on a car: you can do it, no doubt, but it's just stupid... Assuming this is the sort of bug the story is about, how can anyone seriously claim to be an IT professional if he/she writes this crap (and asks $$ for it!)

Ho ho, this piece is just an amusing example of FUD. I wouldn't expect anything else from M$...
I simply can't help remembering the innocuous glitches win2000 suffered @ it's launch (and still does)
The most amusing were: certain M$ mouses would wreck so much havoc to the point that the only solution was to REPEAT installation and not to attach the HW ever again. Same story for some NIC cards... but it probably was old outdated hadrware; pity it used to work before w200 (;-)) took posession of the machine. It's just a shame that M$ discontinued NT support now you'll have to FSCK your whole LAN... but that's just a minor glitch... DVD playback works great so when your office grinds to a halt you can watch the latest MPAA pill while waiting for the M$ drone to come (and tell you you have to upgrade everything down to the power cord;-))
Can you please explain where all this contempt for Raster comes from? I've read nasty-ish remarks on E and the man himself on./ and the linuxtoday page. Quite frankly I cant' understand the reason so many peole can't stand him! I use wm and kde2 most often (I cant' get to terms with moving the mouse at 90 turns) but I'm not bashing the chap. If some dude instead of whipping him with a trout had written a coolish 'point & click' prefs setting I bet the masses wouldn't be so hard! Or is it because he left RH slamming the door?
Well, this is not a flame... my country has many skeletons locked up in many closets but, well...
as far as I know the U.S. have been @ war many times in the past century: apart Vietnam and the WWs, I remember something about '50s
military ops in SE Asia. As far as liberty and standards of living... well in the '50 Italy was mostly populated by poor illiterate farmers but 1/2 of the U.S.
still lived in apartheid conditions... racial discrimination is still an issue and it's effects still influence welfare distribution across the U.S. population.
Shure, no one is perfect but let's not forget the witchhunt that plagued the Mac Carthy (hope the spelling is ok!) era. I mean, hundred of sincerely
democratic people were kicked out of the system just because they thought that nuking the world to kick the reds' asses wasn't wise!

Hi there, I've been using kde2 since the 1.99 betas. Konqueror is a hell of a good browser, I never really use netscape anymore except for www.phong.com as it uses javascripts that konqui doesn't work with (I wonder if it works now). I think kde is a splendidly well written piece of code and I'm only sorry that getting to the kde mailing lists is so difficult! As a side note I would like to see a KIO repository somewhere on the web so that when there's a new one out I can simply compile it and copy it to the appropriate folder without getting in trouble with cvs (I'm lazy) Finally the pdf KIO needs improvement!
It's not a bad idea. It's a good opportunity to explain the Linux movement to the avg joe. All they know about Linux comes from zdnet and M$ FUD!

Bah, I've always wondered (and will quite happily continue) wether black holes exist. I mean, Albert himself warned against pulling the beadspread too much...

BTW, is there a good reason to exclude large scale electromagnetic interaction as current cosmologies do? After all plasmas abound so why assume it's only gravity's fault...
WINE isn't in danger. I doubt it will ever put a dent on windows installation base. The Apache devels are those that should watch out for M$ lawyers.
