  1. QPL on Redhat to support KDE developement · · Score: 1

    Then choose an alternative. Redhat is a company out to make money (ouch, that is a bad word here). Quick, go back and look at all of the things RedHat has done for the "Free Software" movement. Ok, now that you are done, go back and read the QPL. OK, now go back and read the BSD license (which is the best in my opinion). Why does everythin have to be in line wit the GPL? It's just a license. Troll Tech spent alot of time and money developing the libraries. RedHAt spent alot of time and money developing the distribution. Debian spent alot of time (I bet money somewhere) creating thier distribution. Is this the true test for "Open Software", ...If Microsoft bought Troll Tech tommorrow, would KDE exist next week...

  2. Tried GNOME... on Redhat to support KDE developement · · Score: 1

    I waited and waited for GNOME. when it was releaed I downloaded all 937 RPMs. I finally got it installed in the right order. I ran it. It worked for about 5 mins before it crashed.

    I really thought Enlightenment was nice. I thought gnome was cool. I think it was a little premature in it's release. I ended up going back to WIndowmaker & KDE.

    Flame Me I'm Irish!!

    oops, a day late.

  3. Shit be slow on VMWare Beta Release · · Score: 1

    Did tou install the corect video drivers? On my k6/166 it cooks. Get the vmware tools.

  4. Maybe it's not Office but Win32 on MS Office for Linux · · Score: 1

    If they could sell win32 (libraries) for Linux at $100/whack then they are not out any money (since that's about the price of Win98). If I could buy win32 for Linux and use Linux at work instead of NT then I would pay $100 out of my pocket to do so :)

  5. I invented TCP/IP on Al Gore Invented the Internet! · · Score: 1

    No Really!!
