  1. Re:A lot of good ideas on What if Red Hat bought SCO? · · Score: 1

    You mean like when Compaq bought out Digital?

  2. Re:nail in redhat's coffin on Linux Mandrake Gets Major Investor · · Score: 1

    He will buy Redhat Linux because he heard about their high stock value. Also because it is more expensive, it must be better. ;-)

  3. Try kdevelop on Motorola to purchase Metrowerks · · Score: 2

    People should try out kdevelop at www.kdevelop.org. It is still beta but shows much promise for thouse who want a VC++ type of IDE.

  4. Unfortunately on Motorola to purchase Metrowerks · · Score: 1

    I bought CW at the Linuxworld show and unfortunately it has problems far worse that the bloatiness of VC++ you talk about. I am looking into kdevelop right now.

  5. Re:presentations on Wrap-up of LinuxWorld · · Score: 1

    I know that Linux Central gave away a cdrom with some of the presentations(in html) on it along with the LDP, Linux Gazette and other stuff.

  6. I doubt it on Corel Linux Preview · · Score: 1

    I'm sure Corel has a legal dept look into copyright issues. I know they were concerned about the naming of the "trash can" on the desktop... apparently Apple has a trademark on some words there!

  7. Beowulf on IBM joins Trillian project · · Score: 1

    I wonder how a beowulf cluster of these will perform ;-)

  8. cool. on RedHat 6.0 is Out · · Score: 1

    Yes it will be in the Oct/Nov timeframe based on their release dates for the last 4-5 versions!

  9. Question Regarding Upgrade on Red Hat 6.0 · · Score: 1

    From past history, any Redhat x.0 version has always been a major source of pain in upgrading since they make lots of changes in that version.

  10. price? on HP to give 24/7 support for Linux · · Score: 1

    According to News.com, HP's pricing is basically $100-$130 per computer per month. This is for 7 days/24 hours troubleshooting support w/ 2 hour response. They only support selected hardware configurations though. They will also have a freely accesable knowledge base for Linux troubleshooting issues.

  11. they actually look kinda cool... on MS Introduces Optical Mouse · · Score: 1

    I wonder when their "Butt Hinge" product will come to market. If you check out the IBM patent server, Microsoft has a patent of Butt Hinges!

  12. I thought Al Gore invented UNIX? on Ken Thompson Receives Kanai Award · · Score: 2

    No, but he did discover some of the software Al-Gore-rithyms used in Unix.

  13. Mouse problem on Blender v1.5 Manual · · Score: 1

    You probably need to set the gpm to use the PnP
    mouse driver. This was the case for my old 2.01
    version of the Microsoft serial mouse.
