okay, for basic scumm you only need the libSDL (if you go the scummvm link you find links on the bottom). For sound you might also need the libSDL mixer and perhas libMAD.
As I most of the time play in train and listen to some other music I haven't tried out sound yet.

[and yes a better software search with the possibilty to search for "work 100% in C-8/7x0 series would be great. perhaps time to mail killefiz.de people?]
Although I own a 860, and I am very happy with it. This one looks neat with its internal HD. I would love to have a second one to do some Tests with various Linux Distris:)
And nothing is more wonderful than to play Monkey Island in 640x480 in the morning:)
I miss only one thing on the iRiver: bookmarks. If you have such a huge load of files it would be good to "mark" a position, play some other tracks, and later go back to that "mark". Especially when you upload new files. Sucks kinda that it always starts at 0.
compilers: perhaps, but its always a little bit like pressed in, not like smooth in linux/xBSD
well, *caugh* ever tried to make multiple Desktops. There are TONs of programs. But at the end I turned it off. It just brings more problems then it would give. in any X window manager that just works. or focus follows mouse. Sure there is a small app, that does it, but again, windows is not designed for that. At the end it often brings more troubles than it gives. Thought I can't turn that off, or I'll go crazy in windows.
well, there are more cool geek games:) but I am not playing games anymore.
networking stuff. Again, sure it might exist, but it can't revail the power, like on linux. its more incompiled, and added on, than integreted into the desktop. And I am sure, if you want to do serious admin/networking stuff, you won't stick with your windows box.
whats the difference between bash and shell on windows. I think you are kidding.
#> for ((i=1;i10;i++): do echo $i; done;
okay do that simple doodle loop on windows shell.
Linux is NOT for everyone. But those who need it, will never be able to use Windows.
muah, this reminds me of my NHK man encounter. I thought I could scare him away with starting to talk in german and to my shock he could speak german. I was so baffeld, I couldn't say a word:) Thankfully he understood that I will not yet watch NHK:)
oh well... those NHK dudes... well haven't seen him again... yet...
But when RedHat decided to switch to Entprise only I searched for alternatives, not only to get away from this policy but finally to get out of the RPM dependency hell. So I tried again Slackware, and Debian (Although I always disliked it) and I stick now with Debian. The better I know it the more I like it And there are only 2 RedHat Boxes left, one that will be replaced in 2 months and the other is so not important I really don't care:)
well, the MS is not compatible to itself is a known thing...
But if I try to open a japanese Excel file in OO (Linux) I always have to choose my japanese font set, he is not doing this automatically. Sometimes I still have Mojibake. With Gnumeric it works perfectly.
And then there is the fact that both Gnumeric and OO use a different Format... good. both is XML... good. Then why you can't open one in the other? Same goes for AbiWord. I just thought about that, we always complain that MS Office can't open OO files, but even between Opensource Products it is not working, and that is a bad thing.
Why can't there be a HTML a like XML DTD of word, excel, powerpoint, project etc so you could exchagne documents between any kind of application. Oh I am dreaming again...
getting a working visa IS hard. I had to wait 4 months to get one. They hate foreigners. 90% of the people working in the immigration office don't speak a single word of english. Funny for those foreigners who have to go there for applying a re-entry permission (yes even if you have a 1 year working visa and you leave without a re-entry permission, you actually have to re-entry the whole circle of getting a brand new working visa (a friend of mine working as a bar tender happend this thing). Furthermore, 3 months before your working visa is over (and you can extend it) you cannot get things like: mobile phones or any dial up device, can't sign up for credit cards (which is understandable),... For all the visa thing you have to fill out 100.000 formulars. and if you enter japan with a tourist visa (normal entry visa) and you want to work and get a working visa, you have to leave (! YEAH L E A V E !) the country to get it... THAT is sick...
But damn, I love it here:) I hope my working visa extension goes well...
always depends how you do it:). When I bought my 860 it was smth around 72.000 yen at bic camera. I just used my bic camera point card and got 20.000 yen off. Same I did for my dial up card which was 10.000 yen (its a wlan / dial up card) and I again my point card and paid 0 yen...
yeah sdl hooray, but I havent found a build that would let me run scummvm in landscape mode. but i also havent tried to build anything myself like frozen bubble to test out if only my scummvm build is b0rked. i dont know about snes, etc emus. I havent checked in detail, nor have I checked various japanese hp if there is eg a more better libsdl version.
@input
yeah i know you can setup the input fields to varous types (number, western, etc). but still, eg the a has to be written like print a not like write a, so this is one thing hard to scope. and 5 has also to be written in japaenes stroke order, or it doesnt get recognized.
well I also own a C860, but there are some things which should be noticed:
- display: thought it is amazing, and 640x480 is something you never want to trade away, especially if you read and write japanese, the display itself is horrible in daylight. You can't read anything unless you have at least 50-60% backlight running, and still it looks dark.
- weight. Something you should never underestimate for a PDA. It it is at least 2/3s more heave then the Toshiba PDA Pocket PC eGenious. If you hold the Zaurus only in one hand, eg in train rides, it can get a little bit heavy.
- no built in WLAN. Thought this is dismissable, there are a lot of CF WLAN cards, but they stick out a bit and then are a little bit blocky when typing on the keyborad.
- western on screen writing is a bit bad in recognition. Yeah, but it is developted for japanese;) so its okay. and with the keyboard you are 10 times faster anyway.
- the PIM software is nice, but might not kick ass for business people. Especially that the ToDos are not completly included into the Calendar is a mystery to me... but at the end, for me it is enought.
- actually no games, except Mah Jong (2 versions, the "real" Mah Jong, and the Solitair Mah Jong) and both are "shareware"
But enought negavite, this thing rocks.
- login via ssh to servers and fix things:) This is just WOW and yeah if you can do this on a train ride (geek thing perhaps)
- easy to install other distros.
- SD & CF slot and they work great.
- The Display, thought I ranted about it, it still rocks, because if you watch you digital camera pictures on that display, it is just wow, especially because the image viewer software can fullscreen & slideshow.
- Battery life. Even if you use the WLAN/dialupcard and have 40% backlight on, you can use it quite long, at least two days. I use it most time in the morning and evening on my train ride to office and back. Takes me one hour each, and then during day, but then without WLAN most.
- Keyboard. It is really very good and you can type extremly fast with only two fingers. The only thing that comes to my mind is a missing Alt-key... but might be that the terminal is not transmitting the Alt key or so... (another geek thing).
- supergreat dictionary and japanese translator. For me as a japanese learner I love that dictionary and...
- great kanji writing system. Yeah thats another cool thing, when you can write the kanji right on the display and they get recognized. helps me a lot if I see something but can't read it.
- easy to connect in linux. Just plugin USB, have the Zaurus net connect in USB part compiled in and set up the usb network, bingo, thats it and you can login via ssh (if sshd is running on the zaurus) or mount the zaurus via samba...
- the browser. Hey it has TABBED views. Okay, even IE on windows doesn't get that. Did I mention TABBED views. Yeah:) and it views frame pages very well. Zoom in and Out, etc. This is a powerful little browser: NetFront 3.0
- the Hancom Word and Spreadsheet programs are really great. They work very well, thought the word sometimes feels a bit sluggiesh, but hey, this aint no P4 3Ghz...
- very small Charger, can easily be taken anywhere.
- smart placemnt of outside "scrollwheel". Very usefull to scroll through webpages if you have to hold the Zaurus with only one hand.
chroot into drive and finish setup according to this page: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-prep aring.en.html
I have setup all of my servers like this (get XFS easily that way) and same at home. thought you have to trick around a bit to get XFree 4.3, if only that damn thing would compile on all architectures so it can go into unstable (sid) tree...
oh no! please NO! Gosh, I hate it so much that you can't do that in Kmail or Evolution. I want SEPERATE mail boxes. You ask why? Because I read serval different mail accounts. Work, Private, Alternate. I don't want to get them mixed and I have no interested in some major sorting rules (which are impossible to do if you recive the same ML at home and work account [see Kmail for this sucker bug]). I hope Thunderbird keeps there seperate accounts for each box.
and btw, if you want all in one tree, why don't you set up a basic rule -> all mail income on pop account 1 move to folder inbox in local acount. furthermore you can set for each account that the sent/draf/etc folder are in "x" mailbox.
No other game I played so often, no other game was so frighting and still so addictive.
Well fighting... I think Nocturne was the most scariest. I think, I have never played a game with wet hands and in panic, because something might come out somewhere.
But the most impression: Doom I & II, Monkey Island I & II, Maniac Mansion I & II, Sam & Max, Indiana Jones... I think Lucas Arts has made the biggest impression on me... Civ I... Hereos of Might and Magic, etc...
In Austria we had 1GB per month, and still have with one provider. An other provder has 4GB limit per month, and some others 8GB... 1*30 is 30GB a month okay... so well. And I am not talking about the prices. Depending on service and quality up to 100 Euro a month.
Anyway I am living in Japan right now and this is... well very different. All ADSL have 12Mbit down 1Mbit up, prices around 3000 to 3500 Yen (23 to 29 Euro) and I haven't seen any limits yet. Furthermore there is Hikari Fibre with 100Mbit and well costs installation 28000 Yen (ca 215 euro) and per month about 5600 yen (43 euro). But you can't have it everywhere yet. But huge areas in Tokyo are already prepeared for it.
it seems ur are the stupidy guy. As you even don't know what really means hot swappable... and we are definitly NOT talking about Hard Drives only. Ever tried to replace a CPU in a running System ? Linux ? Windows ??

okay bad example. This is something even DOS 3.3 could do. But what about something like this
for i in *;
do
name=`echo $i | sed -e 's/_OLD/_NEW/'`;
mv -v $i $name;
done;
or anything like this
cat | cut -d "_" -f 1 | sort -n | uniq >sorted
etc
and a lot more. if you just step out of the loop, you are trapped in M$.
