  4. Re:Let them hurt on Conflict On Graphic Standards Hurting PC Gaming? · · Score: 1

    Valve is only coding HL2 for DirectX. The code that matters, the client, will only be available on Windows.

    It's a perfekt tie-in for KDE based Komputers too!

  6. Re:Code looks ugly on MiniGui, GPL'ed Qt/Embedded Alternative · · Score: 1

    That doesn't look like any kind of Qt code. It looks like Win32 code. Actually, it IS Win32 code.

    Nope, the story poster has definitely ended up going beyond the call of geekdom and into the land of showing off. DNA indeed. Pffft.

    And check out your hl.exe file size, the one that comes with steam. It's much smaller than the original.

  9. Re:OpenSSH in RedHat 9 and others on New Vulnerabilities in Portable OpenSSH · · Score: 1

    Which may mean
    1) That option isn't available and your system is in danger
    2) OpenSSH wasn't compiled against PAM, so you don't have to worry.

    That sounds right to me.

    Crap man, shellfront, now slashdot spam :) We just can't get away from you, can we? ;)

    I'm not sure what exactly your problem is, but I thought Knoppix had a noacpi option you could enter at boot time.

    But "playing" with something like this is a good to way to waste ti-, er develop your built-in neural network.

  13. Re:why not support the companies that support us? on Half-Life 2 - A Linux User's Lament · · Score: 1

    I don't understand what you mean. I can play Enemy Territory, UT2003, Q3 natively, and they run great. I can use WineX and play GTA:Vice City, Warcraft 3, etc. and they all work great. Nvidia's Linux drivers work wonderfully.

  14. Re:Metroid Prime on On The Quality Of Videogame Commercials · · Score: 1

    Ugh, why not? Ikaruga, Wind Waker, Soul Caliber 2 (with Link!). Mario Sunshine was a fun game (not groundbreaking, but every game doesn't have to be).

    I read some good articles about this at Relisoft.com and it was very helpful.

  16. Re:Ah, but the man has a point on HP Introduces Transmeta Thin Clients · · Score: 1

    Is playing video games over say ssh/X possible? I don't think a Windows Terminal client can use DirectX. Does X support something like OpenGL remotely? That'd be pretty damn cool :)

  17. Re:Yawn... on Initial Half-Life 2 Benchmarks Released · · Score: 1
    Anyhow, just who runs Half-Life or anything with all the eye candy maxed up?

    I'm pretty hardcore, and my GF4Ti4400 can play HL/CS at 1280xWhatever with anti-aliasing at HL's max of 99.9 frames-per-second. HL doesn't *have* a lot of eyecandy.
  18. Like I asked on the Transgaming boards: on Initial Half-Life 2 Benchmarks Released · · Score: 1
    I've read the reports that the Radeon 9800 smashes nVidia's GeForceFX 5900U. I plan on buying a new graphics card for HL2, but now I can't make up my mind. I currently use Linux 100% at home. But I have a spare hard drive which I'll be installing Win2000 on to play HL2 if WineX can't run it.

    The question is: ATI or nVidia for Linux? I am really, really pleased with nVidia's Linux drivers...I've been playing HL/CS, BF1942, Deus Ex and GTA with no complaints. So if I get an ATI board, will it be stable/supported too? I'm talking Linux, not Windows, because Linux will still be my primary OS, but I don't want to switch video cards everytime I switch my OS just get decent framerates in HL2. I've never bought an ATI board, and have heard the drivers *used* to suck, but don't anymore, so I don't know what to believe.

    So, anyone? I'm not trying to troll, I'm trying to get people's REAL experiences.
  19. E-books are good, the software is not. on Barnes and Noble Drops Ebooks · · Score: 1

    A year or two ago Scott Adams started selling "God's Debris: A Thought Experiment" as an E-book. I decided to try it out, but the reading sotware was horrible. I was on dial-up using proxy software in Windows 98 (I think). My parents' PC had the connection, but I downloaded the E-book onto my computer. For whatever reason the reader, when it tried to verify that I could read the book, could not connect to the DRM servers, so I was locked out. I had to install the reader and download the book (via the reader) again on my parents' PC. What a hassle.

  21. Re:Slashdot just loves MS security bulletins on Microsoft Issues Five New Security Warnings · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I've been using .NET. It's neat, and has a lot of cool features over VB6, ASP, and MFC, and yes, even Java. But as interesting as the technology is, why would anyone want to deal with a company that acts the way Microsoft does?

  22. Requiring a CD = bad idea on Microsoft Issues Five New Security Warnings · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I develop lots of VBA stuff for our office. But all of our installation disks are 75 miles away at the main office. I have an Office XP Upgrade disk that was used on older here, but my full-blown Dell-installed Office XP won't accept it. So how am I supposed to patch this *critical* bug *immediately*?
