  1. swapping over nfs on Remote Direct Memory Access Over IP · · Score: 1

    In what way is this technique better then swapping over NFS?

  2. Re:Exceptionally random cipher text on Israeli Firm Claims Unbreakable Encryption · · Score: 1

    By using, for example:
    Video Entropy Daemon (retrieves random values from a video4linux device)
    Audio Entropy Daemon (retrieves random values from an audio device)

  3. shameless plug on Just How Much Privacy Do We Have? · · Score: 1

    In case you want privacy while surfing the internet, have a look at Cloudish - a distributed anonymizer.

  4. privacy on Implementing an SSL-Based Network? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If you want privacy when surfing, take a look at Cloudish; it's a distributed anonymizer using SSL connections.

    Small detail; you need others to setup a cloud/crowd of cloudish-proxies.

  5. how to implement ext3 on Linux 2.4.16 Released · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Now ext3 is in the 'stable'-release, could someone please point me at a document describing

    1) how to migrate the filesystems to ext3

    2) what flags to set in lilo.conf so that I will be able to have the root-partition in ext3

    3) tell what slackware boot-scripts I should change (and how)

    4) what packages I should upgrade

    I could find it out myself, but I'm convinced someone did all of that already

  6. slow on Mozilla Bug Week · · Score: 1

    Ehr, it's running kinda slow on my 32MB P90. What should I do?

    (Sorry, could not resist)

  7. bochs/vmware on Windows XP Has Arrived · · Score: 1

    Anyone tried Windows XP under Bochs or VMWare yet?

  8. UPS connected trough USB on Linux 2.4.13 · · Score: 1

    I wonder; will this kernel support an UPS connected trough an USB interface?

  9. network on DirectFB: A New Linux Graphics Standard? · · Score: 1

    I want something which also works trough a network-connection. Like X.

  10. fun on Odyssey Arriving at Mars Tonight · · Score: 1

    wouldn't it be fun, just for the fun, to have a little Linux-box serving a webcam on mars? complete with an ip-number and http-server and all.
    that would be pretty cool

  11. what is emacs on GNU Emacs 21 · · Score: 1

    Eight Megs And Contstant Swapping

    Sorry, I could not resist.

  12. will a preemptible kernel solve the dos problem? on Linux Kernel Bugs · · Score: 1

    The subject says it; if the kernel gets preemptible (difficult word), wouldn't that solve the dos-problem more or less? (the one with the enormous symlinks) Since the problem seems to be that the scheduler isn't executed for a while which should be solved when things are preemtible.

  13. IRC on ALICE Takes Medal At AI Competition · · Score: 1

    I want that alice integrated in my IRC client!

  14. Re:why no RAID? on The Ultimate Linux Box 2001 · · Score: 1

    Mylex builds them.

  15. image recognition systems on Watch Heise's Robot Challenge In Progress · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know any details on how they have those robot recognize trash from non-trash and the colors and all?

    While I'm at it; back in the days of the Atari ST there was a toolkit called AIM(Atari Image Manager or something?) which enabled one to do a bit of that. Does anyone know if it has been ported?

  16. Re:why no RAID? on The Ultimate Linux Box 2001 · · Score: 1

    make sure those drives are not of the same (manufacturing-) batch. or better; of different manufacterer.
    and if you're into scsi, buy one of these raid-controllers with memory-with-battery-support on them. oh, and while you're at it; buy an UPS. not only against power failures, but also against spikes and stuff.

  17. new episodes on Ask Wil Wheaton Anything · · Score: 1

    Hi,

    When 'they' want to produce new episodes, are you then willing to play in them? (and do you think the other actors are willing too?)

  18. Re:At what point... on 2.2 GHz Xeon · · Score: 1

    They could instead (instead of increasing the FPS) improve the rendering. No more lightmaps but raytracing. Now that would be exciting!

    (or radiosity)

  19. what part of the registry is mailed? on New (More) Annoying Microsoft Worm Hits Net · · Score: 1

    I wonder what part of the registry is mailed. Passwords+usernames of outlook? Or are all of these in pwl-files these days?

  20. Re:Contact the developers on Linux Token Ring Support Bringing Down Corporate Nets? · · Score: 1

    From my experience: madge (of the tokenring cards) is very supportive!
    buy them :o)

  21. the old days on The Joys Of Losing Your Cooling Device · · Score: 1

    Ah back in the old days, well, old days, in the days of p90. Fan stopped running, pc crashed. Reattached fan, pc ran again without no problems at all. For years!

  22. 2nd of april? on NSA backdoor creates security hole in Windows · · Score: 1

  23. send him an e-mail on Bowie Distributes New Album Using SDMI Format · · Score: 1

    Maybe all his fans who use Unix and are not able to play that windows-thing should send that guy an e-mail explaining why mp3 (or whatsoever) is a better idea.
    Maybe that'll convince him, or am I being naive?

  24. Re:Give me a break on Linux 2.0.37 Released · · Score: 1

    I really do not agree 'bout NT being more stable than 95/98. There are (for example!) so many ways to have it crash, just with fiddling in that GUI. 95; no problem!
