No speed difference

KDE 2.2.2
·
· Score: 5, Informative
I just installed 2.2.2, and there is no real noticeable speed difference in my opinion. Icons 5% faster? Maybe, but if KDE 2.2.1 was too slow to be usable on your system, KDE 2.2.2 will be as well.
The crossov rplugin has nothing t all to do with KDe... it's a Netscape/Mozilla plugin. It does work in Konqueror, but the KDe team had nothing to do with it.
I tend to agree with you (particularly since I was using it under 2.2.1), but maybe you should tell this to the KDE team.
They are a small portion of the total possible number.
Agreed, I was just being anal. There are 2^24 + 2^20 + 2^16 = 17,891,328 private IP addresses. I don't know offhand how many representable IP addresses are invalid (I'd have to look up an RFC and I'm lazy), but it's not too many.
Other people have already converted it, so you can download it in mpg. Check out the links scattered throughout the comments, or visit http://www.pocketmovies.net.
It wouldnt be covered with them if you BUY the damn thing, cheapskate.
I'm sorry, are you blind? I only posted one sentence, yet you somehow managed to only read half of it!?
Here, I'll give you a second chance:
"Yeah, Crossover is great
if you want to pay $20 to see the trailer, or if you don't mind the video been completely covered with nag messages for 50% of its duration."
Notice the two possibilities mentioned: either you pay $20, or you watch nag messages for half the trailer. I realize that buying it removes the nag messages, but I also realize that some people might not want to pay $20 for a proprietary product to watch a Quicktime trailer when they can watch the same trailer in mpg for free.
Yeah, Crossover is great if you want to pay $20 to see the trailer, or if you don't mind the video been completely covered with nag messages for 50% of its duration.
No, as a previous post pointed out, you can go directly to the large trailer and watch it in regular, free Quicktime. It might give you a referer error the first couple times, but if you click around a bit it'll work eventually.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this very very misleading? The article states that the Linux IDE subsystem can now support single ATA drives up to 144 petabytes (i.e., Linux ATA now has 48 bit LBA support), but my understanding is that many other aspects of the the Linux kernel limit the maximum file size to much less.
Maximum File Size
For Linux 2.4, the maximum accessible file offset is 16TB on 4K page size and 64TB on 16K page size. As Linux moves to 64 bit on block devices layer, file size limit will increase to 9 million terabytes (or the system drive limits).
Maximum Filesystem Size
For Linux 2.4, 2 TB. As Linux moves to 64 bit on block devices layer, filesystem limits will increase.
My understanding is that the 2TB limit per block device (including logical devices) is firm (regardless of the word size of your architecture), and unrelated to what Mr. Hedrick did. Am I wrong? Does this limit disappear if you build the kernel on a 64-bit architecture?
And, on 32-bit architectures, there's no way to get the buffer cache to address more than 16TB.
Why are you providing a mirror!? It's a Cisco website that isn't Slashdotted at all and never will be! Why don't you wait to see if a site has problems handling load before posting a mirror? Doing otherwise is a bit obnoxious, not to mention illegal.
Compare the size of the bz2 files between 2.2.2 and 2.2.20... 50% increase in the stable series...
I would guess it's mostly drivers. New/updated drivers get added throughout stable series. As you probably know, drivers are by far the majority of the Linux kernel, and the size of the driver code grows much faster than the rest of the kernel.
Javelin is a generalized framework for fault-tolerant, scalable global computing, a la SETI@home.
CFS and PAST are P2P readonly file systems a la Napster/Gnutella/Freenet. Both had papers in this year's SOSP. Both are basedon log(N) P2P overlay routing/lookup substrates.
OceanStore seeks to be a more general (writable) global storage system.
Some of these projects have been going on for years. So you shouldn't buy the "Academic networking/CS researchers are a bunch of P2P haters" line without a few grains of your favorite seasoning.
Slashdot Mirror
HA! I stand corrected.

From the 2.2.2 announcement under the "new features" section:
No where in the comment you replied to does the submitter suggest an OS change. ????
There are lots of invalid IP addresses and private IP addresses that can't transit the Internet.
I think what some other people have mentioned is correct: open up a brand new browser window and paste in the URL. It just worked for me.

Yes, I do, thanks.
This thread is turning into a big CrossOver ad.
But that's okay. It's a good product.

You download the CrossOver plugin, and then you can run the installer for the Windows version of Quicktime under you precious GNU/Linux.
Yeah, Crossover is great if you want to pay $20 to see the trailer, or if you don't mind the video been completely covered with nag messages for 50% of its duration.
Sorry, but you wind up going to Akamai's mirror either way.
Here's a much better quality version of the Myster trailer (Quicktime).
No, as a previous post pointed out, you can go directly to the large trailer and watch it in regular, free Quicktime. It might give you a referer error the first couple times, but if you click around a bit it'll work eventually.
I'm looking at the Linux XFS feature page, which states:

Er, no they're not. (Well, this is 100 minutes after your post, so things might have changed...)
Eh, Linus is promoting his book. It's all for the best.
Oh my god you are such a karma whore.

And several P2P conferences have formed and will continue to form.
