According to this blog entry by Daniel Glazman of Nvu fame, the ubuntu LiveCD destroyed his MBR
Can anybody confirm/deny such behaviour by Ubuntu's LiveCD or LiveCD's in general (don't they mount hard disks read-only)
type about:config in the location bar if you want access to all the options. remember that firefox is designed for users not to get lost in the maze of options.
How can firefox render better, it has the same rendering engine as Mozilla, are you comparing the same Mozilla version as the one which firefox is based on e.g, Mozilla 1.6-Firefox 0.8
Mozilla 1.5-Firefox 0.7
Remeber firefox will branch soon from the 1.7 release, so far a while, Mozilla (aka Seamonkey) will have rendering fixes/speedups and Firefox won't have it till it returns back to the trunk sometime after 1.0 is released
yes, firefox is nothing without the underlying Gecko engine. Shortly firefox will branch on the Mozilla 1.7 branch, it is very likely that Mozilla 1.8-1.9 will have much faster page rendering that Firefox 1.0. See bugzilla for the bugs targetted for 1.8alpha
One thing I really miss in thttpd is keep-alive support. I am currently kicking the tires of cherokee . It supports epoll/kqueue and also does keep-alive/pipelining. Very useful if you have to serve lots of images, it even has a nice mechanism to serve cache-friendly headers
I see some issues with its gzip support but the author is quite responsive
My understanding is that HFS+ is case-preserving. For people switching from Linux/BSD and used to a case=sensitive fs, are there options to get case-sensitive (you can install ufs but you'll lose journalling)
Hi, Red-Carpet seems to offer functionality similar to up2date/redhat network. However, there seems to be a very substantial lag between packages made available via Ximian's redhat channel and up2date.
An example being (till now, RPM 4.0.4) is not available via the Redhat 7.2 channel. Is Ximian going to ever make a policy statement as to what is the maximum duration their userbase will be diverged from receiving the latest updates of their respective distributions.
If there are specific packages which are likely not to be made available via red-carpet, can their be an official statement on this so that users are aware of the pros/cons of using multiple update mechanisms
I have observed that at times for a couple of weeks at stretch, Ximian had pushed out no update or release on their Gnome desktop. They also take a few days to show updated packages on the Redhat channel
This could be due to the fact that the packaging team might have been busy with things like Evolution 1.0 release or Red-Carpet Express release
However, when consumers are paying $9.95/month they might expect more frequent rollouts. What if there are no or very few updates in a month ?
Do RHN users feel shortchanged for their $19.95/month when they see very few updates
Have you looked at
3Ware IDE RAID controllers. Excellent Linux/BSD support
You'll find most dual mobo's have intel eepro's on them (support is okay under Linux) though you'll find many a thread under lkml where problems are attributed to eepro's.
3Com's 3C905C have support for hardware checksumming and zero-copy networking (incorporated in 2.4.4-pre6)

Skype is one such binary program which comes to my mind. Maybe CrossOver office

Any idea when IE 6.0 will be supported by CodeWeavers ?
Is this only in Panther Server or also in Panther ?

You might wanna take a look at this 1U Quad AMD system from Angstrom Computers
Personally, I haven't heard of any Quad CPU AMD mobo's at all

The following bug fixes make it quite difficult to pitch Mozilla to other developers View source page bug Cookie Confirmation dialog should show all fields

Won't the backing out of the page_launder changes cause problems for servers with heavy IO loads ?

It would be nice to have in 2.5 a kqueue/kevent interface similar to FreeBSD 4.x Maybe something like Schedular Activations
