I've gotten a similar item, too. I have a Compaq LTE Lite 4/33C. This nice laptop doesn't have PCMCIA ports (DAMMIT!) but there's a base I also have too. I've installed an ISA NIC and a sound card. On the road I carry a Paraell port NIC (a DE-620, very reliable). I've installed Slack 8 on it (and took a hint at Linux-From-Scratch and strip --strip-debug every non-kernel binary I could find to save space).
The hack is sort of like what Slack's setup does. In rc.netdevice, I run modprobe on two modules (hp-plus and de620). If any loads, I know where I'm am, and I record the module's name into/etc/nic.card. If not, "none" is put in there.
Once I know, I can say "hp-plus? OOO!!! I'm docked! Config the adapter. Load sshd, sync the on-board/usr/src with the base's intended/usr/src (makefile hack), fscheck and mount/usr/src and/alt." Or I can say "de620? Ok, just config the adapter." Or I can say "Nothing? Well, just do nothing, we can't do anything else..." It's all bash scripting.
Can you stick to the script, and tell the guys who's doing the special affects to cut half of 'em out?!? And get some culinary experts and identify the panelists while cutting down on the crowd. I becha you'll get better dishes that way.
Yeah. Right. When I visited the company in my own back yard. (Yes, it's an hour drive or so, but both UU.Net/WorldCom is in Virgina, accessible by Metrobus).
Now take a look here: DejaGoogle Search: uu.net in news.admin.net-abuse.email A ton of discussion about UU.NET, and that a blacklist is going to go up soon. 21.700 articles.
All the spams and reports, current, ever posted to NANA.sightings. Hmmm, I guess the dialup blocking preventions are *NOT* working. PAGING JOHN ST CLARE TO THE PINK CURSODY PHONE!
I've called after sending a report on two occassions. They "closed" the ticket by forwarding it to the ISP responsible, and said they couldn't tell me who the ISP was. BULL! I was still getting spam from UU.NET customers.
Now, I did apply to UU.NET for an abuse job (didn't get in, lack of transportation, I'm not bitter about it). I was called down to go down and visit UU.NET's abuse department. It's a full floor in an office building, relaxed clothing, and they handle all abuse (DOS attacks et al). However, when I interviewed, the manager(John St. Claire) said that it was a "three strikes rule" before they pull the plug.
What? Now "three months before one last month?" No, secure your network now or get SPEWed.
I would have to say that having MCI/Worldcom/UU.NET run your network is paramount to being blacklisted.
As far as I remember, MCI/Worldcom/UU.NET has never shut down a spammer's site that they hosted. They nicely got the dialups under control, but web sites are a different matter entirely. They are very grey, if not almost completely, black hat.
The Compaq LTE Lite 4/33C had a 200 meg drive I replaced with the half-gig. Any more and it looks like I need a new BIOS. Thankfully I can flash one in, but it's the latest I can get from Compaq.:P
I also have a 1 gig, but it doesn't work in the system (it doesn't recognize it).
I'm on a laptop with a half-gig HD. No, I can't get a larger one because it's an old laptop and I don't have money to buy another. So far, I've crammed a decent install of Slack 8 with X11 onto it with about 150 Megs free on an ext2 partition.
Reizer leaves me with 100 free
Is this going to chew up more HD room? I'd love to find a nice, ext2-like file system to make this laptop's root.
Why do a live version when the cartoon series, given the Live-Action Tick's timeslot, would of been a better choice? I mean, I enjoyed the cartoon series. No amount of live-action + special effects is going to be up to the same.
Also, don't you think the Power Rangers series should of been animated for it's own sake, instead of live action?
While they may be ahead of us in technology, they're not ahead of us in terms of ethics and law. I've gotten two spams from Chineze firms and a ton of spam relayed from servers listed in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Korea. Many other major ISP sysadmins get the same thing, and the word that hums through the security community is "ban them until they learn to fix their servers and play by the rules."
BTW, that doesn't mean there's a miscommunication (some folks in NANAE can translate 'em just fine, and are around the world). There's proof that it's relaying, it's still relaying, and the admins overseas aren't doing anything short of having the goverment shut down their servers because "Free Taiwan" relays through there.:P
I'm not. Think about it: A webcomic author who's gotten his work reprinted in deadtree format must be successful, since he/she now has a following that's willing to support him/her. Think about Pete Abrams (Sluggy) and Scott Kurtz (PvP), both are published and very successful. Scott even jokes about it in his comic strip, and also tells that his first comic book is sold out and won't be reprinted again. Now that's a following.

They've be complaining about MAPS blocking them... when it's MAPS listing them for sending out spam and not reforming. Several sysadmins are now blocking them. I would *NOT* trust them with anything.
CD-R's now cost $15 for a stack of 25 from TDK. That's 60 cents per CD! I doubt commercial CD blanks are more than that.
A burner will do a significant hit, but is neglible over the burn's lifetime. The electricty required is what, a few cents/min max?
CD caddies (slim) cost about 10 cents per caddie at CompUSA for a count of 40 last time I checked. We'll double that.
Color prints are roughly 20 cents/page on stock glossy paper at Kinkos. I doubt you'll use more than one sheet of legal sized paper.
That's about a buck for a CD! If it's a Dr. Demento CD, you'll have 22-odd songs on it (roughly a nickel per song).
The US Postal Service can ship a CD, Media rate, 7-15 days, starting at $1.33 depending on where you send it. I doubt it'll be more than $4 from DC to Redmond, WA. So that's $5 to create and ship.
For a $18 CD at Sam Goodies, that's a $13 profit that's shared by the store, a middleman distributor, the CD creator, and the artist!!! Who gets what is set by a series of contracts and markups. All in all, the artist gets majorly screwed when most of the profits get sucked up by the stores, middlemen, and CD makers.
No wonders why Scott McCloud says that only a quarter to the artist directly to grab an MP3 of one song would fix all these problems. The musicians and comic artists are in the same boat!!!
Remove the Restrictions, and they will come...

Quarter-sized CD's?

Damn. If they remove the restrictions, there's a *TON* of applications they can use. You can even make a drive out of a PCMCIA Type III card. If you can shove one drive natively in a system, all you need to do is slap part of the Linux distro on it and free up half a gig of HD space! That's a whole HD for me on my laptop!
I heard of your problems using Linux to run the defense team of our native Baltimore Ravens. I am intrested on how you got the entire defense to run Linux in their brains instead of their native operating wetware, and am willing as a Linux sysadmin to help correct the line teams mistakes. Please contact me through my website. --Kelly "STrRedWolf" Price.
Oh great. There goes about 80% of the distros that aren't Redhat baised. I'd rather use rpm2tgz instead of trying to force it with plain-old rpm itself.
Sen. Barbra Mikulski (Dem, MD) does listen to E-mail, as long as you include your postal address. I've sent notes to her about bills on spam and China's constant relaying and insecurity on the digital front. She returns them via postal mail with general agreement towards the issue.
Unfortunately, my other senator and represenatives don't put in the extra effort. A local news station ran through state and federal represenatives, and found out that our federal represenatives are the worst at getting back to their consituents *NO MATTER WHAT METHOD YOU USE!*
I'm going to reelect Barbra. The remaining incumbants can get tossed.

Instant messaging in just 7K? Yeah. I just did it in Perl. Client and server each in under 1000 bytes, basic messaging.
I betcha if I throw in a GUI via Perl/Tk it'll bloat to 7k. Maybe.
True, even though Sony will probably have to bundle a MPEG-2 DVD Decoder that's licenced, along with a audio player.
Down side is that you can't play those screwed up CD's.
Hopefully, they'll bundel GCC with it too, so we can put our own stuff on it.
