How do you intend to block them? Block anything with extension.wmf? Isn't enough as the file will be identified and handled as wmf, no matter what the extension is.
From http://isc.sans.org/diary.php?storyid=994/ you can find that "WMF files are recognized by a special header and the extension is not needed. The files could arrive using any extension, or embeded in Word or other documents."
I'm not sure if this is compiler (m68k-elf-gcc 2.95.3) or C-library (uC-libC) problem but sprintf(buf, "%s %i", "n: ", n), where n might get negative _sometimes_ produces only "-" sign without the actual value. So now I'm trying to go around it with something like this:
sprintf(buf, "%s%c%i", "n:", (i > 0 ? ' ':'-'), (i > 0 ? i : -i));
Other scanf related bug in x86 Linux (gcc 2.95.3, glibc-2.2.4):
struct mPos{ long long int tt, id; double lat, lon; int bm, alt; };
when done _first_ time I get NAN to the lon... so no I have to do that sscanf twice in the function when it's entered first time (had to include static boolean first_time in the function to accomplish that).
Why on earth printf and scanf are so hairy? I could avoid them but why? They are standard ANSI-C functionS so they really should behave correctly!
We've named some ooms of one building after LOTR characters and places (yes Nokia has quite a lot buildings these days). For example the smoking room is called Mordor:)
This particular PC is used only for gaming.. For serious stuff I use 2.2.19. Despite 2.4.11 has a known symlink related bug and I'm using SuSE I'm not affected as the situation which triggers that bug is not going to happen here.. It's more or less related to the installation of the system as the only known case which is affected is when SuSE's yast is installing new/dev nodes.
Other reason for using of this kernel is the fact that it's the first one for me which doesn't lockup completely with NVidias drivers.
Despite the fact that 2.4.11 is tagged "Don't Use This" it's the only kernel that works for me for Very Very important app - Return To Castle Wolfenstein:) With all other kernels tried I can't connect to multiplayer servers through 56k modem connection. It might be some configuration options that does it but with other kernels it just stays forever in state "Getting game state". Too bad i didn't install that SuSE's patch which stores the active configuration in/proc/config.gz so it could be copied as a basis for the new kernels (Yes I ran make mrproper before applying the 2.4.12 patch so I lost old.config)
They won't get it work - even with AGPS, which can work indoors. The position estimate wouldn't be accurate enough to rely on indoor navigation. It could be used only to get rough estimation of position and then use other methods to keep from hitting obstacles.
But right after the car is loaded inside the plane, the GPS receiver losts the tracking signal and for all your trouble you have reached 0mph...
It might work with assisted GPS but that requires integrated GSM phone which has to be turned off when in aircraft (or take a risk if you own the plane).
I've tried a handheld GPS receiver in an aeroplane and to get strong enough signals to track, the receiver antenna had to be pressed against the window.
>If they went page-by-page, the movie would run approximately 32.4 hours!
So? Why it isn't divided to multiple movies like it's supposed to be (it's not a single book you know). Next similiar movie project I'd love to see would be Raymond E. Feists Riftwar Saga - again divided to multiple movies. And after that four movies of Serpentwar Saga:)
For me Linux distributions are too big in another sense... After struggling days to squeeze SuSE-6.4 to a flash drive I found out that by default at least SuSE forces ridiculous amounts of unneeded stuff to down your throat.
Once I got only base system installed (custom install and remove everything that really isn't needed and hearing yast whining "that and that really need to be installed for a functional system") I moved on and bombed quazillion of irrelevant apps, config files, empty directories and readmes etc. I had stable, working rpm-based system running on a 160MB Flash with enough space for my own apps and logs etc. Another space saver were deleting all drivers that weren't needed and compiling my own streamlined kernel. How 'bout other distributions? Well RedHat couldn't install at all on this small drive thus I selected SuSE. Debian may be easier to fit on small devices but that I haven't tried as on the schedule I were working required to work with something I allready familiar with.
>not much. i guess it could be easily done, but who wants to pay for the qt/win license? or is it free too?
Not for developers but AFAIK there's no fee attached to the runtime so if some licence holder compiles konqi/embedded with qtwin he's free to put the resulting binary out as freeware.
This is very good news to such a lazy chargers as me. I've lost my data and settings so many times from my Cassiopeia because I've forgotten the thing laying somewhere without no AC connection.
With conventional memory this thing eat battery even if it's turned off and when the batteries run out - whooosh! All data stored in the RAM is gone.
YES! Just the thing I was looking for. Finally I can put this Cassiopeia E-15 to do something useful - wait... nooo... there's no mips-linux nor mips-netbsd port of setiathome:(
> That's 12 million EURO. Which leads me to ask, what's the exchange rate of a euro to dollars? According to Universal Currency Converter(tm), one EUR = 1.01834 USD
Well I must say that I've lost at least few weeks of productive time to mindless surfing, which is reported as "R&D management" to the work hour system;) and I know I'm not alone. You don't even need WWW to get addicted to the net. Most of my Internet time has been wasted in usenet news. Thank God I haven't got into irc/mud-madness. That would mean throwing the rest of my normal life (in the eyes of other people) away.

Are you sure? This would be good news but there's no mention of inclusion to the kernel in the ALSA pages - as if it were hard to install ALSA drivers before...

Take a look here [www.troll.no]. So the FAQ is outdated and Qt/Win is available for free for non commercial products (as is the case with Qt/X11).

I'm amazed that nobody hasn't mentioned Bluetooth. IMHO it's just the thing you described.
