    I thought it stood for 'Disk Doubler'... That's what it does, anyway...

    Dosen't Firewire have a filesystem standard?

    Firewire support in Linux is still experimental. Use it at your own risk.

    The only reason AbiWord didn't output errors is because it's programmed to only output them in debug mode. Gnome/gtk and other OS apps are programmed to always output them.

    Ouch. Mine is only about $40 a month. And as you can see from my spam-armoured e-mail, I don't exactly live in Silicon Valley...

    Maybe we'll have less wood computer jokes from now on. And maybe M$ will use Linux as its kernel for future versions of windows. Come to think of it, we should make a distor reproducing Windoze's GUI, to attract long-time windoze users...

    My God, I just finished downloading 5.1, and now they're already up to 7.2? Great. Just great.


    14.4KBPS modem, eh?


    Next you're going to tell me they've gone past the 2.2.14 kernel...


    Does 2.4.9 ring a bell? ;)

  17. Re:ext3 migration is seamless on Red Hat 7.2 Released · · Score: 0
    In fact, I might not ever try 7.2 because of the really annoying ppp-watcher in 7.1. I had an ISP problem where the chat script would fail to authenticate, and the ppp-watcher just dialled again and again and again... Really annoying, and hard to change. I'm sure I'd miss RH if I stopped using it because I've used it since RH 2.1. For the moment I'm running Red Hat 7.1.93 at home and Debian on my laptop.

    Not a problem for me. I use a cable modem.

    What, are you using a modem? I downloaded 2 of the ISOs in 30 minutes!
