once again cliches.. did you actualy knows that São Paulo is the third great metropole in the world? Yes, it's in Brasil, i live in that city and i NEVER heard of any of this things... Oww.. you want to move to the country? I can point a couple of damn bad thing i heard about U.S. country if you want it to hear..
can you please, *PLEASE*, stop thinking about beach and soccer and whatever damn cliches about Brasil for 2 seconds? No we all dosen't live on a damn huge beach, we aren't indians, personaly i never saw one. If you get 2 second to actualy look at a map you will figure that the Brasilian coast is lesser than the U.S. coast. I live a couple of hours from the nearest beach, my income is about 10 time those US$100 mounth, and my gf will beat the shit out of you if she knows you saying i'm unfaithful, cruel, or whatever;p anyway.. eletronics are expensive.. not extremely.. and i think we should have better broadband internet;] flame bout my english can be made directly to root@localhost
maximium 128MB swaps on linux are an old myth.. from the mkswap man page:
Linux knows about two styles of swap areas, old style and new style. The last 10 bytes of the first page of the swap area distinguishes them: old style has `SWAP_SPACE'new style has `SWAPSPACE2' as signature.
In the old style, the rest of this first page was a bit map, with a 1 bit for each usable page of the swap area. Since the first page holds this bit map, the first bit is 0. Also, the last 10 bytes hold the signature. So, if the page size is S, an old style swap area can describe at most 8*(S-10)-1 pages used for swapping. With S=4096 (as on i386), the useful area is at most 133890048 bytes (almost 128 MiB), and the rest is wasted. On an alpha and sparc64, with S=8192, the useful area is at most 535560992 bytes (almost 512 MiB).
The old setup wastes most of this bitmap page, because zero bits denote bad blocks or blocks past the end of the swap space, and a simple integer suffices to indicate the size of the swap space, while the bad blocks, if any, can simply be listed. Nobody wants to use a swap space with hundreds of bad blocks. (I would not even use a swap space with 1 bad block.) In the new style swap area this is precisely what is done. The maximum useful size of a swap area now depends on the architecture. It is roughly 2GiB on i386, PPC, m68k, ARM, 1GiB on sparc, 512MiB on mips, 128GiB on alpha and 3TiB on sparc64.

I've though it's ilegal to shoot a human target, period..

Nonsense. George Bush was very clear after 9/11 in saying that "terrorists hate the USA because it is a land of freedom".
and systematicaly destroying all freedom is the way to keep terrorrists away from teh USA!
horray for bush!
