well, I could give the links the same way that you did, but people need to accept the end user License Agreement. I know it sounds to some people a bit foolish, but thats their software and thats what their wish.
Remind me when was the last time you installed Analog modem in Linux?? do you think that PCI based modems are as easy as ISA modems? they're not. most of them are Winmodems (so the lucent linux driver won't work - it's ARM, not X86), so you'll need an ISA modem..
You cannot expect linux to move entirely to sourceforge since Linux is made from thousands of parts, each one developed by different people in different places etc... remember - Linux is NOT Windows!
Also, moving everything to sourceforge is definately NOT recommended. What happend if they'll have DoS tommorow? they don't have mirrors on the other coast, or outside U.S - so you actually suggest to put all the eggs in 1 place. Very bad idea (IMHO)
Well, I won't justify all the attacks here, but if you're going to compare performance - then at least tune the damn drivers and get the latest first!!
This is just like comparing BeOS version 4 vs. 5 - I mean - come on!
At my previous job (sysadmin) I installed Redhat 6.0 on a 27GB IBM ATA/66 hard disk without any problem. Just make sure you're set the specific hard disk in the BIOS to LBA.., and it works perfectly!
I wonder if IBM will release patches for Linux + other patches/drivers needed to operate and let Redhat/SuSE/Caldera/Turbo-Linux to port their distributions - the same way they did with the S/390 and the RS/6000 - or will they create a whole distribution?
Xfree86 4.0 is not very stable. XFree86 4.01 should come soon with lots of bug fixes, and DualHead support for Matrox G400 (thank you Precision Insight).
Who said that writing drivers are resources splitting?
I'm almost sure that the Linux drivers are done by Precision Insight (including Itanium), and I don't think that the Mac developers help the Windows drivers developers at all..
Well, I know that I do from time to time, but I'm still human and mistakes happens. I think the time I posted this was night in US (morning here in Israel), so probably none of the author have seen this.
OK OK I will re-check my spelling next time. I promise.
I was VERY tired (torturing Mozilla M15 with various Hebrew web sites) and then I found this on LWN - and I know that many people wanted it - so I posted that.
Well, I'm a slashdot author (like Rob, Hemos and others) and I don't post so much - When I find something interesting and I cannot post it - I email it to Hemos.
as for my nick HeUnique - this nick goes with me from the early days I used IRC (from 1991 I think), and its just a nick..
Oh, and I think I'm the only/. author who isn't living in US. I live in Israel, and I'm not being employee of Andover.net or VA Linux, and I don't have any stock options either. And for the person who suggested to send me back to AOL - well, here in Israel we don't have AOL (but we got much worse ISP's)
As for the "u" mistake - I'm sorry. I posted it 2 minutes before I went to bed. I'll check myself better next time.
If you want more details - then click my nick - there is an email address there:)
I know lots of people have been waiting for this ISO, so thats why I published it. I'm sure that if you contact Sourceforge peole - you'll see several hundreds of downloads for this..
As for the "u" - Sorry, I guess I need to sleep more:)

Then simply GO to their website and look..

Well, sorry to "disappoint" you - but Mac version is expected by the end of the year.

Tell me about it - I didn't succseed to compile it (and u need more then 4 other libs to compile it)
:)
Lets hope that someone will release either binary RPM (prefferable static), or - maybe someone will write a KDE version
Well, you can check freshmeat more then once in a while you know..
From their web site. There is a new version with bug fixes for many of the problems reported on the Discussion page.

Yup, I forgot to put it. Fixed :)

Nik is probably too tired :)
I fixed it.
I just checked. They're not working for Intervideo.
If he made a clean room implementation - then Sony doesn't stand a chance..

I already corrected that mistake in the story.

Nice of you to look at MS Web site - where in MS world everything is perfect, kosher and no hacks are known to men...
GET REAL!
Look at zdnn.com web site, C|Net and others and stop pointing at VA Linux. OK?
Corel had to move much faster then the wine development team, so they made a private tree which they developed wine further..
Take a look at the wine mailing lists - you should see that Corel offered back the changes...
Downloadable == Evaluation? Limited features version? stuff like that..
From what it seems - looks like you need Administrative rights to install the Netscape 6 with Net2Phone
Hey, this is a PR 1 version only!!
:)
Rest assured, that there will be binary versions for ALL unices - Sun, SGI, SCO, *BSD, etc..
Those guys at Netscape got those machines you know
