Well, unless you've got a lot of photos or make music I doubt 'you've' filled up much of you hdd, you're just keeping lots of third party stuff on their.
init needs a watcher to kill of any hanging init process, and knoppix should look at my current install (Windows or linux) to get it's basic hardware info
e.g. if I've disabled something because it crashes a lot knoppix doesn't load it. Or, knoppix should look at windows for my network configuration, desktop details, users etc...
' The point is as long as companies are using technology like directx to make their games, they will not have an easy way to create native Linux binaries'
wgl and glx are differnt too, opengl isn't just a easy re-compile.
the new DirectX functionality and and the newer openGL functionlity are more-or-less identical or easy to convert, datastreams and locking is a bit of a pain (not too much) but opengl is cleaner than directx so it should be easier to go directx -> opengl.
GPL isn't an EULA, RMS and the FSA will say the same thing. QT's interpretation is a load of crap too, but they've got quite a bit of inlined stuff in their headers so it would be hard to include the headers and not have QT warez built with your application.
JEREMY PAXMAN: The question is what freedom he has under the current inspection regime but we've discussed that already, I want to explore a little further about your personal feelings about this war. Does the fact that George Bush and you are both Christians make it easier for you to view these conflicts in terms of good and evil?
TONY BLAIR: I don't think so, no, I think that whether you're a Christian or you're not a Christian you can try perceive what is good and what is, is evil.
JEREMY PAXMAN: You don't pray together for example?
TONY BLAIR: No, we don't pray together Jeremy, no.
JEREMY PAXMAN: Why do you smile?
TONY BLAIR: Because - why do you ask me the question?
JEREMY PAXMAN: Because I'm trying to find out how you feel about it.
'The sneering Paxman clearly wanted to make Bush and Blair seem like men in the grip of a murderous religious mania, but he'd actually stumbled on to a great truth.
Yes, being a Christian does indeed probably make it easier to perceive real evil, and particularly evil in a totalitarian form - and this is precisely why Christianity has been the enemy of every totalitarian movement since the French Revolution.'
Haven't you seen any interviews with him? he's got the bush stupid look that makes people think he's harmless whilst tipping poison into their soup.
Cherie looks like she's either on too much morphine or is trying to catch flies in her mouth whilst listening to crickets.
Has winzip gone bankrupt lately, or the paint shop pro guys, what about borland or Microsoft I've got copies of CBuilder enterpise and windows 2000 advanced server that they gave me for free.
Also I doubt that Joes Jewlers would be able to compile software, and I don't really care about their 2 seat license when I get 5000 seat licenses from kwiki-mart.
'anything developed using GPL libraries must be GPL and released'
That's two piles of shit.
1: You only have to offer source code to the people you give binaries to, now if that's within your company then you don't have to release to anyone else.
2: Lets say I develop against ATI's opengl implementation and dynamically link against the library and I distribute the application closed source, then a user is using MESA a GPL version of opengl to the runtime linker links my application against a GPL library. This does not mean that your application has to be GPL'd.
In short, because a dynamic linked application doesn't include any part of the GPL'd code the GPL can't cover your application. This is because GPL is based on copyright and not EULA and copyright can only be enforced if you actually include a copy of something.
On the same basis I can create a patch against a GPL application that contains none of the original application, I own sole copyright on my patch and it does not have to be GPL'd until it is included in a copy of GPL source code that is released (releasing the software to myself doesn't count).
Well, you'd be amazed what a little bit of psychology can do for a campaign.
Maybe the politicians aren't pointing guns at you but they use every underhand means of convincing you to do the wrong thing and vote for them as possible.
Bush + ban gay marriage. Blair + ban everything.
The sooner we get rid of these bogus 'Christians' the better. anyone got a gun?
"If you want to believe that everything everyone's ever written in history survives today, intact, and STILL attributed to the original author, then please, be my guest."
No, I just believe that given all the possibilities for egg white on the turin shroud, Da Vinci inventing photogrophy comes at about the same level as me winning the Olympic 400 metres.
before you get too into blaming Microsoft for using a full carriage return, line feed which is defiantly the correct sequence of codes to start a new line. Apple uses \r.
Think about it, line feed would leave the printing head where it was, carriage return would send it to the beginning of the line without moving it down a line.
So, Da Vinci was a genius and he figured out how light worked but didn't think it was important enough to write down or draw pictures of anywhere?
What else did this TV show say? That the government has ubbertech and the reason they don't use it or fail so abysmally with the tech they do show us is just a bluff. Does the government scan our brains when were in school and pick the geniuses of for a special government programme to develop government ubbertech? Does Bush have a direct line to God?
The Help compiler that came with visuial basic 3 wouldn't work with RTF documents created using word 97.
I had to write something to reprocess the RTF documents and remove the crap that word 97 had put in there.
Oh, try opening a text document written on a Mac or Linux on windows, sometimes it forgets that crlf isn't the only form of line termination in the world.
And for the count, I've had lots of problems with word files of different versions, but word files with different fonts are even more annoying.
And I wish that I could save spellings with a document, but that's a differnt story.

40megs is a hell of a lot of asci text.
It boots fine, but if hangs during startup.
init needs a watcher to kill of any hanging init process, and knoppix should look at my current install (Windows or linux) to get it's basic hardware info
e.g. if I've disabled something because it crashes a lot knoppix doesn't load it.

It doesn't run on my PC.. yet I'm running linux now.
you could always help get wine working just as well.
Fancy some aplha testing of Directx 9 for wine?

Well you might like to try directx 9 under wine, and fix any bugs in the other 25%

What if I link against ATI's openGL libraries or bills BSD library instead of the GPL one.
It's just as much a loop whole as me spending money on some paper, drawing a picture and not being put in jail for forging money.
So long as I don't redistribute the GPL code with my binary application I have no copyright problems at all.
I think the point only applies to headers that actually contain application code (e.g. inlines or complex macros/templates)
Stick to C and the headers probably only contain facts which aren't copyrightable.

Encryption is your friend.
1: Create a method of signing the commercial version.
2: Companies pay for keys.
3: profit.
1: support
2: your an expert in the product, so consultancy.
3: It's not a perfect product, people will pay you to maintain it.
People will only pay for value added not another copy of a tired old application.

Yes, and I can make a square peg fit through a round hole if I hit it hard enough.
What you need to consider is that people used to think that the way we saw was because something shone out of our eyes and was reflected back.
If da Vinci had have invented crude photography he would also have had to work out how light worked and I'm sure we'd all know about that invention.
What do you think they use on that chip on your credit card.
'Egg white is an important element of crude photographic emulsions;'
It's also the bit left over when you make egg tempera, a type of pain that Leonardo da Vinci would have used.
Now what's da Vinci famous for photographs or paintings?
