  3. Re:Firebird on Mozilla 1.4 RC3 Is Out · · Score: 4, Informative

    Then what about Thunderbird?

  4. Re:and is not nor will be downloadable for a while on Red Hat Linux 7.3 Released · · Score: 1

    I'll tell you which mirror I'm getting 500 KB/s from after I finish my download. ;)

  5. Use extensions on Going from Perl to XSL? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I've used extensions for some of the things that I couldn't easily do in XSL.
    Takle a look at the Xalan extensions, or find something for your implementation.

  6. Re:Old model on Red Hat Network for the Masses · · Score: 2, Informative

    Not that I think that Debian can't be a better distribution in some ways, but have you looked at APT for RPM?

  7. Re:All good and well but we need an excellent brow on GNOME 2.0 Desktop Alpha · · Score: 3, Informative

    Obviously you haven't tried a recent release of Galeon!

  8. Re:Upgrading GNOME worth it? NO! on GNOME 2.0 Desktop Alpha · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Upgrading is not worth it! Note that this release is labeled as "Alpha", which is developer-speak means "not feature complete and will crash on you all the time".
    If you want to live on the bleeding edge, you can install this in addition to your working desktop, i.e. by using the vicious build scripts from Gnome CVS.

  9. Proprietary Exchange-support to follow on Evolution 1.0 Released · · Score: 5, Informative

    See press release at Ximian's site. Available early next at $69 a pop.

  10. Re:Question for Linux Gurus: on Yellow Dog Linux 2.1 Shipping · · Score: 1

    As long as you have 9 and X on separate partitions, you can easily set yaboot up to triple boot. Just add "macosx=/path/to/partition" in yaboot.conf and rerun ybin.

  11. What the numbers really mean on Mozilla's 100,000th Bug · · Score: 1
    In excess of 100 000 bug reports have been filed against Mozilla and associated products (such as the web site and bugzilla itself) since bugzilla opened. As of right now, 79 913 of these bugs are fixed, leaving us with ~20 000 open bugs.

    Many of these bugs are duplicates not yet discovered, many are feature requests, and some are bugs for tracking other bugs ("meta bugs").

    The number of open bugs in the "Browser" component right now is 11 619, which is closer to the real bug count. (But the number is still too large, see above)

  12. Re:AA rendering? on Mozilla 0.9.3 Released · · Score: 1

    They're working on it, I'm guessing it'll show up 1 or 2 releases up the road. You can follow the progress in bugzilla.

  13. Re:Java stability? on Mozilla 0.9.3 Released · · Score: 1

    Java stability is great! I've been running (and debugging) RMI applets on pre-releases of 0.9.3 all day without crashing.

  14. Godd review at kuro5hin on OS X · · Score: 1

    I'ts called 24 hours with Mac OS X.

  15. Re:Foundation Classes on Dave Mason On GTK+ 2.0, Pango, Gtk And More · · Score: 1

    That would be great, wouldn't it?
    Apparently Apple has done this with Aqua, but I know of no such project for GTK+/GNOME. In the meantime you might want to look at the SkinLF project, which can use GNOME og KDE themes in Swing.

  16. Apple "forgot" two themes on Themes Removed At Apple's Behest · · Score: 1
    osx2 and aquagraphite are still available.

    Get 'em while you can!

  17. Re:it's the logo (no, it's not) on Themes Removed At Apple's Behest · · Score: 1
    let me say once again. it's the logo.

    Aqua has no copy of the Apple logo. (And, yes, I just checked).
    Don't know for the other themes, but I seem to remember that the one theme actually containing a logo was previously removed.

  18. Re:Where to get it on Mozilla .6 Released · · Score: 2

    Stable releases (like 0.6) live in the "releases" direcory, try http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/releases/mozill a0.6/

  19. The whole package on Netscape 6 Is Out (Really!) · · Score: 1
    Why oh why do they need to do these damn small install files that go out on the 'Net and get everything?

    Sounds like you might want to download the sea-file, which has everything/I>.
    Try ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape6/english/6.0/u nix/linux22/sea/netscape-i686-pc-linux-g nu-sea.tar.gz or the version for your favourite OS.

  20. Re:First impressions, CSS conmpliance and SSL prob on Netscape 6 Is Out (Really!) · · Score: 1

    Netscape 6 has better CSS support that any other browser, but most sites are designed to work around the horrendous CSS support in Netscape 4.x (and the not-quite-good CSS support in IE)

  21. Re:What are the implications for users? on Inprise's Kylix To Be Opened? & Gnome Alliance · · Score: 2
    With regards to KDE: Kylix will first appear for KDE, the reason Borland is giving the source to the Gnome Foundation is to try to make Kylix ready for Gnome development also.

    And as a user, you can as always mix KDE and Gnome apps. They won't look exactly the same, though.

  22. Re:So what's this I hear about AbiWord? on Candidates For GNOME Foundation Elections Announced · · Score: 2

    Gnome or the Gnome Foundation has not made up their minds, Sun has.
    Sun can say whatever they want, as they will not be a part of the board.

  23. Broken URIs on StarOffice Source Released · · Score: 2

    Beware that most of the URIs have a space in them. Remove the space and it works.
