  1. Carmack is King. {Plz give an Alpha and Irix port} on Quake3 v1.30 Final Is Out · · Score: 0

    You know you want to explore John... Your bonified C! can work on other platforms. Make an alpha port based on the RedHat 7 Alpha libs. It'll be great to see your work on every system imaginable. My dual Alpha system outperforms any Dual AMD and Dual Intel Processor benchmark, with bandwidth to spare. Now if only someone would port the GLIDE API and Device3Dfx to Alpha...

  4. Nice Motherboards will not be here for a while. on Tiger MP Dual-Processor Motherboard · · Score: 2, Interesting


    In General, I can care less about the ATX form factor. Allowing the operating system advanced control over a switching power supply is something I regard as a conspiracy to thwart Linux's efforts for longest up-time. ACPI controllers have always been a waste of a perfectly-good IRQ. APM and "green-pc" was a thing of the past too. The powersupply should have interactivity with the operating system as to when it will shutoff and how many seconds power will remain "on", which is purely Unix-friendly in my POV. We don't need anying integrated on the motherboard: RS232 ports, Parallel Ports, USB, FloppyDisk Controller, IDE Controller.

    This is legacy speeking to us on how we should have a generic system setup. We need a new device interface. Think of PCI, but without the bracket and IO connectors facing behind the computer, outside. Think of PCI in the middle of the board with IO riser-cables snaking to the front of the Computer Case to the actual user. Everyone enjoys easy access to their PCMCIA, CardBus, USB, Firewire, and RS232 ports on the front of the Computer; think of Compaq's idea. Or even think of a IO-Hub on a rotary arm that swivels from the computer case to wherever you want, without it touching your workspace.

    Motherboard, we need them smaller. We need them more customizable. I want to see a Dual AMD AthlonMP Motherboard or Dual Pentium V Motherboard with a dependable number of 32bit PCI-slots, TWO AGP SLOTS, a nice array of 64bit PCI-slots, 4 168pin DIMM SLOTS, and DUAL CPU SLOTS that give courtesy to full-length PCI and AGP DEVICES. Frankly, I want a motherboard that is simply a BUS for the RAM, CPUs, and expansion cards. I want to add my own firewire and scsi interfaces and be able to remove them *with ease when they fail. I'm talking about a motherboard with the dimensions of 8 inches BY 8 inches. Can they do it? That's the challenge!

    My comment on the Tyan is: "Those two remaining 32bit PCI slots will allove my Hercules Stingray 12MB Voodoo2 SLI-mode videocards some optimum motherboard usage. Too bad they stuck with ATX form factor and weren't able to integrate 7 PCI slots at their discretion."

  5. Diablo2 Stress Test, Diablo2 standard, Diablo2 LOD on Diablo 2 Items Bringing Home the Bacon · · Score: 0

    They all run on Linux properly, unlike Diablo1. Diablo2 runs flawlessly on Linux via WINE. Diablo2, in all its stages of release, runs excellent in Direct3D and even better, GLIDE, a Direct3D-to-openGL wrapper, and even a GLIDE-to-openGL wrapper. You must find the win32 wrapper software and install it on your pseudo Windows filetree. The only problem people have in running Diablo2 on Linux is Blizzard Inc's video detection software hangs for some people.

  6. Well, it looks like the immortal spank-ray... on Slashdot Prepares Switcheroo · · Score: 0


    will be passing its fire onto the Slashdot admins. May you use it wisely. Don't forget that by adopting/using the spank-ray, you must keep Moltar and Zorak imprisoned next to your fluffy Tux penguin. Coboy Neal must wear the original SpaceGhost Black cloak on white spandex speedo costume and will bve dedicated to a 4-year term of cheesy andover.net commercials at the San Diego Zoo or a local carnival of how to pick an ice-cream cone from off the ground with a floppy disk. Also, as stated in the contract, you'll be driving an invisible jet. You won't be able to see it, so just feel around inside your apartment 'till you get the idea. May the spank-ray be with you!

    I have some REAL news I must share with ya'll...


    NEWS BULLETIN: Poland's worst air disaster occurred today when a small two-seater Cessna 152 plane crash landed into a cemetery early this afternoon in central Poland. Polish search and rescue workers have recovered 826 bodies so far and expect that number to climb as digging continues into the evening.

  10. The ex Micros~1's words are most fortunate for us. on Xbox As A Server Farm Commodity Box · · Score: 2


    Microsoft does not appear to be implementing any software safeguards or eeproms or roms that will attempt to detect and prevent any non-Microsoft programs from executing. Or Maybe, I am wrong and their plan is to detect ip packets being routed around microsoft.com, causing the much hyped MS WinXbox kernel to launch an eMail around the default gateway pointed to microsoft.com. I don't know what they'll do to prevent the subjugation of their system. I am all talk today.

    Does anyone have a URL for a page that discusses any of their software that may try to do this?

    ahhhhh... haha
