I use 2.5.74 on Debian woody. The only thing I had to install in userspace was module-init-tools, for the new kernel module system. Apart from that I had no "big" problems with migrating to 2.5.
Maybe they didn't use the official KaZaa client.
But if that is the case, isn't the RIAA then violating the DMCA because of reverse-engineering the KaZaa client?
For backing up my FreeBSD home server I use a second (identical) HDD in a swappable IDE bracket on a standard plain ole onboard IDE controller (the 2nd channel to be precise). Though hotswapping isn't really supported on these controllers, it does seem to work:)
Making a backup is easy. I just plug in the bracket and start a homebrew script which: - enables and inits the hotswap IDE channel - mounts the partitions on the hotswap HDD - removes system immutable flags on files on the hotswap HDD (so that they can be overwritten) - copies over all new files (/sbin,/home, just everything) to the hotswap HDD, using the "ssync" tool - resets the system immutable flags to their original state - umounts the partitions - disables the IDE channel - logs the above to/var/log/backup - mails the log to me
A whole backup takes about 25 minutes on an almost full 30GB disk in a P200 (it only copies the new/changed files), and compared to tape it's very cheap. If the master drive fails, I swap HDDs and the whole server works again, without any configuration whatsoever.
I don't know how much marihuana costs in the US, but here in The Netherlands you can get 1 gram of weed for 5 euro. If the dealers charge you too much, no problem, you can always grow it yourself. Each adult can have 4 plants. With seed we got from friends for free, my sister and I put 10 (yes, a bit more than allowed:) pot plants in the front garden in a season.
Though we only smoked once a month or so, and in the summer holidays about twice a week, we were able to smoke pot from it for 1,5 years (even though after a year it didn't taste as good as before:).
So you don't have to be robbing people or buying Macs with counterfeit money to pay for your marihuana use. It's far cheaper than getting drunk. Apart from a few braincells, pot doesn't cost us anything at all.
even with filters, folders and SPAM software, I spend more time culling my inbox than I do reading mail
I have no idea why everybody receives so much spam. I almost never get unwanted mails (4 a year or so).
Maybe it's because I host my own mail domain (the server deletes mail with obviously forged headers, "make money fast" or "send this to everybody in your" in the body,.vbs attachments etc.) or that I'm careful about who/what I give my adresses to.
It helps to use a different address per sender. For instance, I use ebay.com@domain for my ebay account, and if I have to enter a mail address somwhere but don't want to receive mail from it, I use spam@domain, which is a blackhole address. These things make filtering spam much easier, though not everybody wants to or can host their own mail domain of course.
Ah I get it. So in this situation, Microsoft would be the stealth nuclear bomber. Right?

Ha! I don't even have a computer!
well, you know euhhh.... You insensitive clod!

FYI, Frontier Labs expects to have ogg support ready for their Nex II player in Q2 2003.

IIRC, apart from speed, ATA100 is also needed for HDDs bigger than 137GB.
I use APM and supply "apm=power-off" as a kernel parameter. Good luck :)
