  1. Re:Zen sucks if you use Linux... on 60G Nomad Zen vs. The iPod · · Score: 1

    The iPod might be easy to mount, but the format of the database which is used to index the music files on the iPod is not documented either and had to be reverse engineered.

    I am using the gnupod tools at the moment, which are far from perfect. I also tried gtkpod which was even worse.

  2. Red Hat 6.2 / 7.0 on Samba Exploit Discovered, Fixed · · Score: 1

    Has anyone started building rpms for security fixes for these now obsolete redhat distributions yet?

    I am trying to build them myself at the moment, but I think other people might be interested and maybe some company is already thinking about providing commercial support for these versions.

  3. duplicates on Second Hand Hard Discs Reveal Secrets · · Score: 0, Redundant

    i think its about time that slashdot stories get scoring too, just like the comments. with an option in preferences to ignore scores below a certain level this would make reading slashdot a lot nicer. i guess duplicates would get hidden pretty quick.

  4. cheaper system on Linux-Based Audiophile CD Archival System · · Score: 1
    this system is based on software from http://www.imerge.co.uk/ they also licensed it to revox.

    They are also selling their own systems.
    S1000 for single rooms
    M1000 for multiple rooms

    The soundquality is probably not as good as as the linn, but who will hear the difference ?

  5. 2.4.15 corrupts data on Linux 2.4.15 is out; Linux 2.5.0 has also begun. · · Score: 1

    as most of you lkml reading people surely noticed: 2.4.15 corrupts data when you unmount a filesystem (for example when rebooting), it doesn't do a sync before the umount.

    Back out to 2.4.15-pre8 to avoid it. Or find the patch on lkml.

  6. the lame (mp3encoder) people mention codeplay on Does Linux Need Another Commercial Compiler? · · Score: 1

    http://minnie.tuhs.org/pipermail/mp3encoder/2001-O ctober/003934.html

    with a link to someone comparing codeplay to other compilers,

  7. Re:more on SyncML on SyncML 1.0 released; MAL Is Dead. · · Score: 2

    on the downloads page you can find "SyncML Reference Toolkit / SyncML Gold Candidate for Palm, Linux & Windows"

  8. analogue synths / clubs on I Want Names for my Servers! · · Score: 1

    london office (synths):
    fenix prophet5 tr505 darkstar wasp pulse fatman tb303 spirit sonic6 teebee bit warehouse schaltwerk kitten omni jv1080 jupiter6 tr808 tr909

    german office (clubs):
    warehouse ultraschall omen ...

    people seem to have problems remembering the names, but I am root ;-)

  9. old news ? on UK Banks Blackmailed by Crackers · · Score: 1

    Somehow I remember reading exactly the same story about two/three years ago.

    I guess newspapers have some kind of archive which they use to fill up their pages over and over again.

  10. Re:now i can rest... on Quick Death for JavaOS · · Score: 1

    and I guess Star Divisions Java version (which is more of a Java-Client/C++-Server combo) is the main reason Sun bought them.

  11. Re:Anyone noticed the new df? on New Power-of-Two Prefixes? · · Score: 1

    "I wish ls could do this"

    man ls

    [...]
    -h, --human-readable
    print sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M 2G)

    -H, --si
    likewise, but use powers of 1000 not 1024
    [...]

  12. and it is limited to the US on Barred from Red Hat IPO? · · Score: 1

    I wanted to buy some RedHat stock too (somehow I
    got one of these letters too), but you can only
    use this service if you are in the US.

  13. Re:bump it -freeze it on Empeg Shipping · · Score: 1

    the only thing I hate about my company motorcycle is that I can't fit something like this in. Well at least not so that it looks good and won't be stolen after two days in London.
