Anyone else use Cinelerra? I couple years ago it was a bit unstable at times but had some powerful features. It is probably only better now, although I haven't checked myself.
Watch out there. You're drawing an incorrect analogy between Linux and Windows/Mac. Linux is a kernel, not an operating system.
If you asked where to change screen resolution or network settings on Gentoo, Ubuntu, Fedora, or Arch, they all have a single answer. While these answers may not agree with each other, they may be changed by the user if they find that a certain management application offers more comprehensive controls over their settings, or if they are more used to one over the other.
I'm not sure of the actual mass, they never mentioned it last time I saw them, but they did say that the rover could be operating for a large portion of the "day" on the moon.
It has a footprint of about 7 feet by 12 feet, give or take a foot in each. Two reasonably strong men were able to lift up one end of it when they were positioning it for a movement demo, so it can't be too massive...
When they say permanently shadowed, they mean from directly above. I have seen the rover (I attend CMU), it has solar cells that face toward the horizon, to capture the small amount of energy that comes over the side. Apparently it works pretty well and efficiently, or so they say:)
This is good news for all hackers and techie people. I personally can't wait to get my hands on one, I've been itching to see how good of a web server one could be by itself.
In other news, the recorder of the video has the same mouse cursor set as me! Jimmac forever!
I completely agree with you, I used KDE 3.5 for some time, but about 3 years ago I happily switched to fluxbox and have never been dissatisfied about my switch. Lightweight, simple, and easily configurable. That's all I could want from a window manager.
I've actually been using the ATI drivers with a 4 year old, but still very reliable, ATI HD3850. I've had no complaints, besides the fact that horrendous screen tearing occurs if you don't have a composition manager like xcompmgr running. I still agree though, they are making the right move. If ATI can't maintain their code or care to improve it, so be it. I do know the next card I'm getting is nVidia for sure. But honestly, I run a lot of games both through wine and natively, and they all run with on average top fps, with highest settings.
Nowadays I wouldn't quite refer to linux gaming as limited, you just can't quite play the latest and greatest games. Although Skyrim worked (almost) right out of the box, and after about 6 months of a game being out there are usually ways of making it work decently:)
I was just thinking along the same lines, having also just played through Braid. The game really was much different and introduced unique concepts to the player, but it allowed the player to ease into the situation and feel out how the game should be played. Of course, upon dying for the first time, and having the game indicate to press the "Shift" key, I was momentarily nonplussed when I came back to life. I hadn't seen anything about the game before I played...
Obviously, the lurking variable that the people in Japan MAY just be drawn to a vending machine that talks to them and is technologically advanced could not have possibly been a cause of the pickup in sales....
the only way to prove it's suggestion ability is what draws the people would be to put in a machine that suggests based upon random selection, that is identical to the others.
I agree entirely, that was my first thought when reading this. If someone does not have their hands free, clearly they are occupied with something else, in which case they really should not be using a computer... I can see some genius connecting it to a laptop and checking emails while driving.
Now, don't go saying "OH YOUR LINUX INFORMATION IS WRONG, CLEARLY THERE'S A VIRUS." No. This is a security flaw. As it was known when I did the research, no program or malicious software existed for linux that could do damage, unless of course the user is dumb enough to run everything in root....
I have noted that my HTC Eris was experiencing problems such as this every once in a while, but I thought it was due to some residual moisture that resulted from a previous drop in a pool.... I guess the root of the problem wasn't that at all! Which is certainly a relief, it took long enough just to dry it out properly the first time...
I've gotta say, the KDE team has really taken far strides since 4.1. When 4.1 first came out, I thought it was pretty interesting, but I just hated using it. But this seems like they are making it more streamlined and adding many very functional and productive features to it!
That being said, I still stick with my KDE 3.5:D Always my favorite
I wonder what on earth the original writer meant by that? Apparently this world believes free software is bad. Ugh:( Tools such as these and many more have existed inherently in Unix and especially GNU/Linux based systems for at least twenty years now. And, not that I have tried the software released by MS, but I'm willing to bet the open source software is more malleable, capable, and provides much more functionality.
Just curious, what do they mean when saying that other US phones don't support the multitouch?
I own an HTC Droid Eris, and it seems to have a bunch of apps that support multitouch, and I actively utilize it. Is there something more that I am missing out here when they say that no other phones support the Android OS multitouch?
I imagine you could probably do some black magic in the xorg configuration file.
Upon glancing through the man pages, I think you can set up multiple "screens" in the "ServerLayout" section.
The screens themselves would only differ in the "Monitor" setting, where you could point it to each different monitor. But they can use the same graphics card.
I'm not positive, but this may produce the results that you are going for. It may be better than any programs to send X applications between two separate X servers.
Hope this helps!

You cannot compare Linux as an operating system.

I run KDE 3.5.10 as well, but my Kate does have sessions so....

I hope this is flamebait, for god's sake...
Anyways, did some research back in the day:

Have you ever heard of the Unix command dd? I think that may be what you want. It writes directly to a disk, regardless of filesystem and/or format.
