i686 is Pentium Pro not Pentium MMMX. Try running compiling something -march=i686 with gcc and running it on a Pentium MMX. Pentium MMX is i586 + MMX Pentium Pro is i686 Pentium II is i686 + MMX
>yeah pretty much anything KDE or Gnome has is there because it was copied from Microsoft.
I'm pretty sure gnome had task bar grouping before windows did, windows also doesn't have the ability to "shade" (roll-up) windows without third party add ons and X11 had skinnable window managers far before windows supported theming.
Mozilla is under an MPL/LGPL/GPL tri-license. The only parts of it that aren't are the firefox logos (see my sig), I recommend using scragz public domain logos instead.
I'll prbably get modded down for this but to me file sharing doesn't seem so bad. It was the engineers that created the technology for conventional IP distribution (records, cds, tapes, etc) that the artists and execs made millions off of and it doesn't seem so bad that the engineers score a free copy of something every once in a while.
> Yes it does. It forces me to license my code under GPL.
No it doesn't it could be released under a more liberal license that is GPL compatible.
>I don't have to go wandering in a bad neighborhood in the middle of the night, and by not doing it I can avoid getting robbed. But is the robbery any more virtuous because I voluntarily placed myself in an environment where I was certain to be robbed?
You can always remove the GPL code, this situation has happened before.
> Exactly my point. And what it means is that no one wishing to make money from his code will ever touch GPL code.
Plenty of Red Hat programmers make money off of GPL code and so does Red Hat, and that's just one example.
> Hello 12 different libpng versions! Hello 24 variants of mozilla!
Where are these 24 mozilla varients, and only count varients based on licensing issues, it's nto fair to count FF/TB/Camino/Galeon/Epiphany those were based on different design goals. And 12 libpng versions??? I know of the offical version what other ones are their, and do they really stem from GPL issues. Furthermore libpng is licenced as-is. I don't know what else you want from them. Would you not only like to use someone elses code for your own purposes not to their benifit and have them pay big bucks for using it. what do you want from them.
Democrats controlling congress does not mean liberals controlling congress. Before the recent end of the one party south there were both liberal and conservative democrats from the south, and congress was often controlled by a conservative coalition of southern democrats and northern republicans
Using -O4 is silly, all -O's greater than or equal to three have the same effect but future gcc releases my add an -O4 that includes more dangerous flags and breaks things. No one should use -O4 until his compiler actually suppoerts -O4. I learned about the non-existanxe of the mythacal -O4 from gentoo.

What's the procedure for updating third party gdi installations?
And at a fundamental issue, why does my system need multiple copies of this gdiplus library? Isn't the whole purpose of DSOs to avoid needing multiple copies?
Some of these third-parties are third parties within microsft. For instance, Microsoft Research ships a vulnerable gdiplus dll with WWMX. I was not aware of this until using this tool.
ldd searches for dynamic dependancies, hence no need for a new packages. Mozilla's gdk_pixbuf will be updated by the updated gdk_pixbuf containg package.
Mozilla uses gdk-pixbuf via gtk to draw ui widgets, it uses libpr0n to render graphics in web pages. libpr0n runs on all platfors mozilla targets, gdk-pixbuf is a solution for gtk+ widget integration on X11.
Well KWin is short for K-Window Manager and being a window manager, should be transparent to the user anyway. Juk is short for Jukebox. They are really pretty intuive except for Kapote (Instant Messanging).

Outlook may or may not be a good groupware client but I have yet to find anything all that exciting about it's e-mail capabilities. Personally I don't like it and try to use more e-mail-centric apps.

Again you are thinking horizontal. They are creating vendor lockout on their music player which has competitors to favor their music sotre which has competitors.
> I'm an iPod owner, and that hasn't infringed my choice to tell all the online music vendors to go screw.
Just because there are other competitors doesn't mean you have to do buisness with them you are free to continue buying from Apple.
Right now if Apple raises their prices on Music that comes on non-standard CDs customers have no recourse.
Apple doesn't have a horizontal monopoly but iTMS + iPod could be considered a vertical monopoly (also known as vertical integration). It's kind of like if Ford bought an oil company and then stipulated that all new Ford Cars could only use free gasoline or ford gasoline, and Ford gasoline could only be used in Ford approved engines. They wouldn't have a monopoly on cars or gasoline but they would be unfairly leveraging a vertical monopoly.

Then we must teach them about the alternitives. Gnumeric being the best imho, but also OO.o
There is more than one internet. I1 and i2 both are internets so lets just lay off they poor paste eater.

It works for me in xpdf, though it takes a little longer than average to render.

I would reccomend integrating the miniT extension. It's super small and makes tabbed browsing usable.
226669 is "Thunderbird tries to download nonexisting messages with POP3" and is not a security bug.

Bzzz.... Wrong SONY made betamax, Universal was pissed about infringement. It was not Sony v. Betamax but Sony v. Universal.
AS opposed to intuitve names like Access, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint

So is Apple.
