  3. Re:WineX CVS Tutorial & Ports on WineX 2.0 · · Score: 1

    ok thanx a lot.
    the only thing i was missing on the command was to look fro the module "wine" i kept trying things like "winex" and "winex-2-0".

  4. please help with CVS on WineX 2.0 · · Score: 1

    hey can someone please help me with getting Winex 2.0 on CVS, im pretty experianced with linux but have never needed to use CVS before other than for a couple XMMS updates and their page is easier to read than wine's.

    Just telling me the commands would help ;-)

    I have WINE 20020411 (newest) compiled and installed if that helps.

  6. didnt work for me with 2.4.17 on Preemptible Kernel Patch Accepted · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I compiled this into 2.4.17 with the preempt-kernel-rml-2.4.17-1 patch. When i booted i got PPP module errors, and when i tried to install the NVIDIA (2314/2313) drivers it gave me more errors. So i went back and disabled it...

    Im looking foward to trying this patch out again when 2.4.18 comes out and i hope it works better.

  7. MPlayer ownz j00! on Quicktime Under Linux With MPlayer · · Score: 1

    MPlayer is the fastest player i have ever used. I tried a lot of others (xine is really good) but kept going back.
    Its the first player i got DVDs to play with
    and now its got QuickTime support.

    These guys kick ass, quit your bitchin, and go /confiture; make; make install it

  9. 2.4.17 with pre-emptive patch works great on Kernel 2.4.17 Out · · Score: 1

    looks good, my first time with the preemptive patch, as far as responsiveness i dont feel a difference, maybe slight but that might be psychologic.

    anyway, it seems to work great. Looks like its worth using if it does what it says

    not to mention the l33tn3ss of using it ;)

  10. no problems with mine on IBM DeskStar 75GXP Hard Drive Failures? · · Score: 1

    I've had my IBM 75GXP (40gb) drive for over a year now, still works beautifully, its the fastests, quietest drive i have used.

  11. my lame 28.8 on Stopping The 56K Hate · · Score: 1

    Im sure 99% of you should feel lucky after you read this rant...

    In 1997 i was on the beta list to test phone-line-return cable modems (from RCN) in my area... I couldnt sleep that night, and waited half the day for the cable guy to come... I ran downstairs and there he was at my door. Telling my father "its a long distance number for you return".

    I cant connect to the internet higher than 28.8...

    Here it is, 2001, years later and Sprint announces ADSL availiblity at 512K. IM FREE!
    I get my modem, wait two weeks for activation then i suddenly get a letter in the mail saying my "phone lines" are supported!
    I FLIP... under further research i discover we have this thing on our lines called pairgain, to split the lines in our neighborhood!

    Im FUCKED again... so here i am, August 21st, 2001, stil waiting for my broadband. Most of my freinds either have phone line return, or DSL, because it appears its ONLY my neighborhood that has pairgain on the lines (due to an old farm house)

    My only solution is RCN getting their digital 2way fiber optical network they call "megaband" which for the past 2 years they keep saying will be availible in "6-9 months".

    Fuck them all.... I live in a high income area in New Jersey, and i have NO more than 28,800bps of dial-up, shit bandwidtb

  12. they are random, i think on Are The Digits of Pi Random? · · Score: 1

    I think its nice to asume that we could use logic to calculate with precicsion that they do hold a real value.

    But i dont think so. Numbers are abstract, they are simply a way of approximating reality.

    I think think pi could possibly be realized without a constant. That number 3.1415926... will go on forever.

    It must be random because with a ratio that has an infiniate number of variables, there is no perfect answer. Each additional number seems arbitrary.

    Who knows, anyones guess is as good as mine, this is the first time i ever thought about it as random, but visually, it seems to make sense.

    oh well.
