I used this program last year, and tried to run it on my Debian box. It does run up under Wine (did back then anyway), but it wasn't stable enough to complete my return. There were also issues with printing the final return to pdf, and with submitting the return to the Tax Department.
I remember waking up one morning back in 1983 and hearing the DJ going "and more about the shuttle disaster in the 7:30 news". After a few minutes it clicked "What shuttle disaster?" and then the day got real bad. Flying is where the shuttle belongs, not in some hanger or museum. Go NASA!
You've mentioned some good games in there. I'd also add Neverwinter Nights and all the add on modules too. They play very much like Civilization, but with some real time play, but that's not too hard to manage.
Yes, it didn't seem to work for me. In Firefox 1.0 (on Windows XP), I clicked on the link with for a popup blocker, and got a Firefox message at the top of the page saying it had prevented the site from openning 699 windows, and the valid citibank.com site in the background. I never saw a popup window from Secunia at all.
I am concerned about how far they can go, when the article mentions this:
"Another problem that would face open-source solutions is that a lot of the real virtualization ground is consumed by patents created by VMware and Connectix and now owned by EMC and Microsoft," he said. (EMC owns VMware while Microsoft now own Connectix's virtualization software and is marketing it under the Virtual Server brand.) "This would pose another problem if corporations were considering adopting these types of solutions. I do believe there would be a market for it, however."
Surely it'll get to the point where one technique XEN is employing and then butts up against a patent and then it's game over?
I've often thought that building in anonymity and other methods of hiding what you're doing makes it hard to argue in court or else where that you didn't know you were building a device to enable illegal file sharing.
Perhaps that's why these applications haven't implemented something that seems fairly obvious to the rest of us.
I switched my desktop to XP because I couldn't get my digital camera to work via the serial cable on Linux. I've since switched back, but I need to either dual boot or use my wife's laptop to get the pictures off.
I think the musicians have to perform live as they had to do a hundred years ago and as many musicians have to do now (except the so called stars). The era to become rich by selling millions of CDs without any real work is over.
Is it really over or has the general public started to fully seize on the idea that they don't have to pay for music, videos and e-books, and have basically decided not to?
Just because 50 million people decide that what they're doing is right and justifiable doesn't mean that they're right and justified.
I really wanted to try the Unreal Tournament 2003, but my ATI card is too old, and they haven't released a driver for it that can run the game.
Now I've played it a few times, I find myself wondering why I bothered. It would probably have been easier to buy a Geforce card and I'll probably do that before I switch back to Linux.
I love linux but do miss the games you get on Windows.
It means something like 'when we started to go downhill', as in get worse.
Think of your favorite TV show, and when it was getting boring... And presto! Something happens, like somebody dies or a "special" story line is run. It's generally a sign that whatever it is you're doing has just past its use by date.
I don't know exactly where the expression came from - somebody once said it was to do with Happy Days (the tv show), where the Fonz jujmped over a bunch of sharks, and the show was never quite as good afterwards. I'm not sure if that's true though.
My wife does only a few thing with the computer. Webpage editing (Quanta), web surfing (Mozilla), email (Kmail), watching movies (Xine) and listening to music (xmms).
8.0 comes with only about half of what she'd use it for. I know it's easy to install them, but I'm sure that isn't the point. The OSNews reviewer is spot on when she says that it's a big mistake to not include that stuff. I really don't think RedHat want the first opinion of somebody being "So where is everything I want?"

Hmm, quite right.
:)
After 15 years it all kind of blurs.
Damn good to hear it's back flying.

Wow, it seems you don't need to fire a shot now to get the French to surrender to somebody hell bent on taking over the world!

"We went for Linux, not just because we hated Microsoft, but because the cost was compelling," Phillips said.
I have exactly the same setup as you do. As some of the others said, you need to keep running sa-learn and it will eventually work.
I was doing this for about two weeks with no noticiable effect, and all of a sudden it started to catch well over 90% of all spam.
With the razor and other remote site checking in place it is slow very though.
What about the idea that they're stalling so as to get as many licenses as possible before this whole debacle is shut down?
Or would the licenses be too easily undone/refunded once SCO give up?
I gave my wife a domain name + website as a gift some years ago (http://www.trickenzie.com/). She wasn't my wife then, we were just seeing each other.
When I told her about her new email addresses (as many as she wants!) and website she just looked at me and said "You bought me a domain name?"
"Yeah."
This was followed by that utter dead silence men know only so well - it was a pivitol moment...
Then she smiled and nodded. Now she wouldn't live without it.
A geek love story, presented to you by the letters C and O and M.

Is port Mozilla and surf for pr0n. :)
Yeah, and to those of us not in the USA either.

But you produced Sigourney Weaver and Buffy, so I think the balance is there somewhere.

Yes, I'm in the same situation. Until mod_php is solid, I can't upgrade either. Which is a shame, as I'd love to try it out.

o - arse before jail
O - arse after jail.
Is GCC still the only compiler that can build the linux kernel sucessfully?
So, RH 8 comes with everything i need, except for everything else i need to download, build and install.
Great - massive step forward.
Amoungst a very few other things, my wife uses our RH 7.3 for listening to CD's, mp3's and watching movies with xine.
A fresh RH8.0 install leaves her pretty much right outta luck, I'd say.

Great effort, to have surivived so long.
Well done.
