  1. Re:SCWM gets unnoticed again (as most configurable on Raster and Mandrake Interview · · Score: 1

    As for the different decorations for different windows, E does this on a daily basis, for almost everything. The most common thing i can think of, is in most screenshots you see with gimp and E, the gimp window has the 'titlebar' on the left. This isn't just saying 'put the titlebar on the left' to E, there is actualy a seperate window definition there, and you could make it look totaly different if you really wanted.

  2. Re:God Damn It! on Adaptec Ultra 160MB/sec SCSI support for Linux · · Score: 2

    Well, it sounds (at least from the stuff I've seen) that adaptec didn't write the stuff, they just let the people see the specs. It would make sense that if someone was willing to write BeOS drivers, that adaptec could probably get them the information they need.
    Even if adaptec didn't want to, with the FreeBSD and Linux drivers being open source, it would make sense that you could get one working(perhaps not at full utilization though) without any help from adaptec.
    Thats just what it seems like to me though...

  3. Wow on Nanocomputing Proof Point · · Score: 1

    thats about all i can say, WOW
    I don't know a whole lot about computers, so umm,
    what exactly do the gates do? is it the little
    'yes' or 'no' switch type thing for each bit of
    memory?

  4. Re:There is no IP address shortage on IP Address Shortage · · Score: 1

    Well, what you have to do is assign Ports on the box doing Nat to connect to other internal box's, like say your external ip 123.456.789.101, someone connects to port 21, instead of taking the connection itself, it would forward it to another machine on the internal side of your network, lets say 10.1.1.5, now
    This isn't limited either, port 50 on your external machine can easily point to say, port 80 on your internal machine, or anything you want.
    The possibilities are endless

  5. Re:Internal numbering? on IP Address Shortage · · Score: 1

    Since when did accessing something from the
    outside to the inside require an individual
    IP address? I have 3 Citrix boxs, 2 ftp servers,
    and a web server in 5 different machines, running
    on a single IP at work, the same principle could
    be applied here...you access the port assigned
    to that particular applience, say port 10000 for TV's
    if you have more than 1 TV, when you access port 10000
    it would give you a list of TV's, and you could choose one,
    that way all your TV's are still on 10000, and they can have an internal(10.) address, instead of a real one
