You could do that, or you can add yourself to group src (`adduser rufus src`). That way you have write access to/usr/src and can do stuff without messing with fakeroot, but if something is already there owned as root, you can't touch it.

Linux 2.4.19 Released

Well, I've seen a few instructions for debian, but they're either wrong or not comented, so I'll try my own also.
First, get the sources. I don't see them in the debian tree yet, so get them from kernel.org yourself. Put it in/usr/src/linux or whever your favorite place is.
To compile (all in/usr/src/linux): # optional: tells debian to apply any debianized patches (eg. preempt, ReiserFS, XFS, whatever) # very important to do *before* config, or else you'll be configuring and building different things export PATCH_THE_KERNEL=yes make-kpkg --append-to-version "-me" -rev test.1 --initrd debian # configure the kernel as you chose cp/boot/config-2.4.18.config make oldconfig # or x/menuconfig # build the kernel image make-kpkg --append-to-version "-me" -rev test.1 --initrd kernel_image # optional: build debianized modules (eg. nvidia, lirc, alsa) make-kpkg --append-to-version "-me" -rev test.1 --initrd modules_image # install the resulting.deb's cd.. dpkg -i *2.4.19-me*.deb
Explination of make-kpkg options: --apend-to-version: optional, but a good idea. Makes the kernel version into 2.4.19-me and avoids any conflicts by installing to/lib/modules/2.4.19-me,/boot/vmlinux-2.4.19-me, etc -rev: needed for the debs. good as long as it has some number in it --initrd: tell it to build the initial ram disk (/boot/initrd.img-2.4.19-me). Not sure if it's really needed, but all debian kernels have one so I figure might as well use it.
I'm aware that not all of the options are needed on all of the commands, but I figure for safty and consistency's sake, to just leave it as is.
Just finished downloading the tracks and from just a quick scanning through them, I'm very impressed. EBM does happen to be my favorite genre (at least when I'm depressed) and you seemed to have created a setlist putting together the best of it. I'm also equally impressed that your mirrors are still alive =)
Ends up you're not the first person to think of this. A bunch of people from the Ars forums (who are the geek types asked for) compiled together a "Bachelor's" cookbook and released it as a PDF (no, it's not *GPL*/whatever, but it's just compiled together by some guy from posts). It has a total of 180 or so recipies ranging everything from breakfast to full entrees to sides.
Ok, I've been into electronica/techno for a while now, especially some of the darker VNV-Nation EBM and stuff, but I've had one nagging question. Can anyone give a nice consice description of all the types of genres that exist, and what's the difference between them? Some that come to mine include techno, trance, drumb & base, progressive, house, IDM, freestyle, electronica, EBM, etc. Thanks, I'm sure I'm not the only one that is slightly confused on this.
Hrm, so you want Linux on an X-Box do you? Well, let's try searching out good friend google. Guess what the VERY FIRST response is, nothing other than The Xbox Linux Project. Wow...imagine that...
Ok, it's pretty obvious that this is a troll article. But the real stuff (like stuff that people actually believe in and do for their life) is even funnier. Perfect example, the "The Truth For Youth" series of comic books/propaganda pamphlets. Everything ranging from pr0n and how it makes you an abusive addict to how homosexuals are evil to how obviously all rock music is satanic and finally the funniest one, "peer pressure", the freaking life story of the guy making these pamphlets and how he was a doped up pusher. It gets even greater when you move on to the guy's personal site. Great information such as how this guy's bible is now used as a text book in Russian schools (wtf?!).
bah...and people wonder why I'm agnostic/atheist
A new Phantom Edit has just been released this month. True it's not by the same guy that did the original (LA) version, but then again the 2nd (NY) version was done by 2 unrelated people in NY, so I guess it makes sense for the 3rd (DC) version to be made by yet an other unrelated person.
You can find info about it at the phantom edit forum. Also you can download a 2cd VCD of the new version (thanks to Bit Torrent!) from me here.
It truely is amazing how much sarcasm looses when online. Either you have it like this, just strait out, which is lost on quite a few people (but then again, they'd probably miss it in normal conversation), or you italisize or bold font it or something and make it insulting-intelegencely easy to figure out.
Oh well, I have no solution, but I have been "enjoying" your site for the past few months =) My only suggestion: could the listings be more detailed with like # of pics (or at least a range), what categories they fit in (you already have it in the searchable database, it's just now shown), and maybe add a poll for voting on the best ones.
In addition to spamcop that complains to the sender's ISP, there is also Razor that reports the spam to a filtering network so that it can easilly be filtered out by a spam filter such as SpamAssassin
True you won't be vigilante against them, but it'll cut down the the spam for everyone that uses the filters.
According to the phantom edit forum (only thing I can get to right now, the site is down for "6 hours" right now) a new 2001 aka DC version (what's with the city names?) has been released. One person provided an ftp to download it from, but the ftp is dead. As someone who is just now hearing about this for the first time (and has too many SW-obsessed fans for friends) I'd be *very* interested in seeing this, or really any of the 3 (LA, NY, or DC) versions. Anyone out there have a mirror of any of them on a descent connection and be willing to share with the community or know of someplace we can get this from?
god I hate it when people talk about something and then don't give any link. Here's the official info:
Audio Entropyd is a small program that I wrote to read data from a soundcard, hash it and feed the result to the Linux kernel's random number pool. Since this audio contains at least small amounts of noise, this may be a cheap source of entropy. audio-entropyd takes the difference between stereo channels in an attempt to eliminate hum.
I was actually looking around at some game rental programs, and found Red Octane, which is basicly the exact same thing but for video games, with a per-month membership fee and you can have up to 2 games out at once. The only thing is that I'd be more inclined to use Red Octane for games because they have the added bonus of having just about any import (ie. where else can you find *every*, and I count 11 on their site, single Dance Dance Revolution version for rent)
hrmm...I found that exact quote on this site:
http://lefty.simplenet.com/svam/mstings/Lina-The si s2.txt
But I have no idea what the site is...seems to be some sort of Anime scripts or something...
Here's the quote from the page:
Rick: [Cthulu] Did you insert the intensifier disk?
Dan: [Frink] Yes.
Rick: [Cthulu] Turn the control wheel eighteen degrees to the left?
Dan: [Frink] Did that.
Rick: [Cthulu] Are you in Europe? Do you need an adaptor?
Dan: [Frink] No!

THE SNEETCHES
by Dr. Suess
Now the Star-bellied Sneetches had bellies with stars.
The Plain-bellied Sneetches had none upon thars.
The stars weren't so big; they were really quite small.
You would think such a thing wouldn't matter at all.
But because they had stars, all the Star-bellied Sneetches
would brag, "We're the best kind of Sneetch on the beaches."
With their snoots in the air, they would sniff and they'd snort, "
We'll have nothing to do with the plain-bellied sort."
And whenever they met some, when they were out walking,
they'd hike right on past them without even talking.
When the Star-bellied children went out to play ball,
could the Plain-bellies join in their game? Not at all!
You could only play ball if your bellies had stars,
and the Plain-bellied children had none upon thars.
When the Star-bellied Sneetches had frankfurter roasts,
or picnics or parties or marshmallow toasts,
they never invited the Plain-bellied Sneetches.
Left them out cold in the dark of the beaches.
Kept them away; never let them come near,
and that's how they treated them year after year.
Then one day, it seems, while the Plain-bellied Sneetches
were moping, just moping alone on the beaches,
sitting there, wishing their bellies had stars,
up zipped a stranger in the strangest of cars.
"My friends, " he announced in a voice clear and keen,
"My name is Sylvester McMonkey McBean.
I've heard of your troubles; I've heard you're unhappy.
But I can fix that; I'm the fix-it-up chappie.
I've come here to help you; I have what you need.
My prices are low, and I work with great speed,
and my work is one hundred per cent guaranteed."
Then quickly, Sylvester McMonkey McBean
put together a very peculiar machine.
Then he said, "You want stars like a Star-bellied Sneetch?
My friends, you can have them . . . . for three dollars each.
Just hand me your money and climb on aboard."
They clambered inside and the big machine roared.
It bonked. It clonked. It jerked. It berked.
It bopped them around, but the thing really worked.
When the Plain-bellied Sneetches popped out, they had stars!
They actually did, they had stars upon thars!
Then they yelled at the ones who had stars from the start,
"We're exactly like you; you can't tell us apart.
We're all just the same now, you snooty old smarties.
Now we can come to your frankfurter parties!"
"Good grief!" groaned the one who had stars from the first.
"We're still the best Sneetches, and they are the worst.
But how in the world will we know," they all frowned,
"if which kind is what or the other way 'round?"
Then up stepped McBean with a very sly wink, and he said,
"Things are not quite as bad as you think.
You don't know who's who, that is perfectly true.
But come with me, friends, do you know what I'll do?
I'll make you again the best Sneetches on beaches,
and all it will cost you is ten dollars eaches.
Belly stars are no longer in style, " said McBean.
"What you need is a trip through my stars-off machine.
This wondrous contraption will take off your stars,
so you won't look like Sneetches who have them on thars."
That handy machine, working very precisely,
removed all the stars from their bellies quite nicely.
Then, with snoots in the air, they paraded about.
They opened their beaks and proceeded to shout,
"We now know who's who, and there isn't a doubt,
the best kind of Sneetches are Sneetches without."
Then, of course those with stars all got frightfully mad.
To be wearing a star now was frightfully bad.
Then, of course old Sylvester McMonkey McBean
invited them into his stars-off machine.
Then, of course from then on, you can probably guess,
things really got into a horrible mess.
All the rest of the day on those wild screaming beaches,
the Fix-it-up-Chappie was fixing up Sneetches.
Off again, on again, in again, out again,
through the machine and back round about again,
still paying money, still running through,
changing their stars every minute or two,
until neither the Plain- nor the Star-bellies knew
whether this one was that one or that one was this one
or which one was what one or what one was who!
Then, when every last cent of their money was spent,
the Fix-It-Up-Chappie packed up and he went.
And he laughed as he drove in his car up the beach,
"They never will learn; no, you can't teach a Sneetch!"
But McBean was quite wrong, I'm quite happy to say,
the Sneetches got quite a bit smarter that day.
That day, they decided that Sneetches are Sneetches,
and no kind of Sneetch is the BEST on the beaches.
That day, all the Sneetches forgot about stars,
and whether they had one or not upon thars.
