There's one problem DRM, I worked for a company called tornado group for a while, there business was DRM.
Each time you send out a file you give it a unique wrapper and a unique key for that wrapper, the key can be limited on a time or number of views basis.
You should always negoitiate a contract, what Big company do you know that would just accept a contract without having negoitiations and letting they leagle people read through it..... (HP, IBM, The Government,..... anyone who's aggreed to Micrsofts EULA)
HP's big enough to tell Microsoft to fuck off about virgin pc's there just too lame to bother!

Well even if all the drivers are modular (a good thing!) your still left with am I a server or am I a workstation options. Descktop kernels require a quick response(10 milliseconds tops) but this may reduce the performance under server type coditions were a few hunderd millisecond responce is good enough.
A personal kernel will give you a 'faster' machine, especially when you take into account SMP, low latency, pre-emptive kernel, the extra few MB that doesn't have to be paged to your slowwwww HDDD, page faults that occure when you have to goto a module.
You don't have to touch the configs, it's automated, that's the point!
I would have thought making everything modular would have saved time, testing, debugging and waiting for the time when linux is modular enough that hardware vendors will actually write drivers.
What it means is that someone designed a cooker that worked for them, but apparently didn't look at all the other cookers to see how they worked. because the nobs were in un-expected possitions and they turned clockwise instead of anti-clockwise. The userinterface to the cooker was un-expected to the effect that somone turned on the wrong hot plate and set it alight!
What? The kernel isn't that modular, look at the 2.6 change logs...
If I compile somthing into the kernel(and not as a module) then that driver is quicker but the kernel is bigger.
yada yada yada......
If there's loads of 'junk' in the kernel then the kernel is bigger than it needs to be, kernel compiles take longer than they need to.
I can also compile the Kernel for my processor which makes it a bit faster.... SMP makes the kernel a bit slower on a single processor machine but you need it if you have more than one processor.
Some options make linux more responsive to the user, but can slow down high load servers.

That old boxen with a AWE 32 in it will come in handy then!
It's easy as hell to knock up a PCI card with a ADC on it, say $20 tops.
Ha, I bet they can't stop me from using my all powerfull 8MM Jack on a Palladium machine.
I think the poll was accurate of the /. readership.
See look what hapens when you throw a bit of socilism into the mix.... Capatilism good?
Who says that raid can't run accross multiple machines?
and raid them

you can still cat myasciidoc | /dev/lpt0 with an epson printer.
I would like to see a whole lot of IP put into the public domain as part of the settlement and some restrictions on Microsoft's buying up of everyone.
What's better

It's not an odd way to make your system more secure next time,
Why do you think Microsoft hasn't been trying to kill the project?
Could Microsoft have been the anonymous donner?
Lets see,
Implement a security protocol,
People start hacking it
you could then
take them down
or
Offer them 200k to complete the job and make a less crackable version next time!
I think that the Taiwan's President is a troll, anyone who starts a sentance wit the word communist is obviously a troll.
Or look in /proc and look-up the device ID's in a database.
All of the people I know who work on that kind of project are contractory,
Banks, have to keep up with changing laws &co easy life job!
SAP systems, there are rate of change in business and accounting laws is high enough to keep you in a contract job for life.
Well that's what you get if you hire 400 contractors to a nice cooshie government job

'You can't expect it to be 100% perfect for everyone'
Well that my point, if you have the kernel source code, why not compile a Kernel that is perfect for you?

The next step would be to connect to an online database of linux drivers/patches and see if there any updates to drivers for your hardware.
This would make a great addition to gentoo
What?
