Anyone else have to scroll forever to get to the end of the lines in the groklaw article? Anyone have a link where I can look at it in a readable format?
The bigger statement here is that Office XP does not have a database client either. Pro does, but most office installs are small business or standard, because most people don't need access and are not willing to pay double the price just to have access.
Did they give the maintainers a heads up?

The article says that they found the vunerabilities during a code audit with an ethereal vendor, but it doesn't mention if they let the ethereal maintainers know about the problems before they released the report.
If they did I would imagine we will have a new version with these bugs squashed rather quickly. If they did not I would say that is rather lame of them.
and with the built in aes hardware encryption that the nano-itx board has why would you want to whaste your minipci slot for that? It would be much better served with a wireless card to make it into an AP or another lan card to make it into a firewall/vpn device.
Actually this is one of the great things about Xandros file manager It allows you to do exactly that. Corel had this functionality years ago and I can't believe that neither kde or gnome have added it yet.
Well I would be willing to bet you were using an nforce2 motherboard (most likely asus) and you had local apic enabled in the kernel. It's a known issue with some nforce2 motherboards, and the only fix is to recompile the kernel without local apic for 2.4 or for 2.6 kernel use the nolapic boot option.
Why on earth did SCO respond to 700 million syn packets? if there was even a moderate level of syn protection turned on they would have just droped the majority of those packets. and the bandwith usage would be half.
For the most part, humans do think this way, but there is one area we don't: children. The loss of a child's life is amazingly tragic, whereas the loss of an adult's life is less so. This doesn't make much sense, in that the adult had more time on them, and more learning...consider a 30 year old has 30 years of investment for life, whereas a newborn does not, and a newborn is easily replicated using the old fashioned way, with a fairly small time investment.
you're thinking about it backwards the 30 year old has less time left therfore less was stolen from him. What has been taken away when someone dies is not the time they have already lived, but the time they had left to live.
How can you even have a section called FPS without including Duke Nukem 3d? I know the succesor has been a long time in comming and will most likely remain vaporware forever, but why do you think that there is such longing for this game, because the origional was so much fun to play.
Well wine may not infect the system, but most of the recent viruses have done more damage in network traffic which can and will still be affected by outlook running under wine. This has been proven with some of the older viruses in test senarios.
I'd guess that the 5% of Windows 2003 users that used to be Linux users are people that were primarily using Linux because it was free and that managed to get their hands on a pirated or otherwise free copy of Windows 2003 and decided to try it out.
I'd say more likely these are people who had a service hosting thier websites, and then figured hey my flashy new 2003 server has a web server built in why don't I use it and bring my website inhouse so I don't have to pay that monthly fee.
The problem with this is that yes they can set up a web site with a few clicks, but they don't truly know how to configure and secure a website like the real system administrator at their hosting company that uses linux. So they may be in for some suprises.
I second that. I have three of these at home for when the one I use breaks. I have never found a mouse I like as well. The new ones have the buttons too close together. On the older ones you can rest your hand and one finger lies directly over top of each button. Or in the case of the wheel version the middle finger is over the wheel. I'm still waiting for someone to come out with something that even comes close to the comfort and usability of those mice. It should be quite some time before I have to change though since the one I'm using is over two years old and works like new.
Just some quick notes about the 3com. It is not really an IP phone system in the sence that most others are. 3com likes to call it network telephoney. It runs at layer2 unless you have to have IP ( if you are calling another site using h.323 or 3com's built in VTL(virtual tie lines)). Then the phone picks up an IP dynamically. It's acutally a really nice system, and it runs on VxWorks, so it does run on a stable operating system. The basic box itself comes with call reporting and voicemail. If you want full call center features and ACD you will have to buy third party software though. And as the previous poster said the phones are a little high, but they have come down recently, so they are not too out of line with traditional pbx system phones these days.
It clearly provides information on the only limitations of doing a FAT32 installation of WindowsXP, and that is the inherent limitation of FAT32 only being able to recognize a 32GB partition size.
Actually The 32 GB limit is purely a microsoft thing to get you to use NTFS. FAT32 can format up to 2 TB. And microsoft will read drives that large it just wont format them that large for you. And there's actually something that will expand that to 4 TB but I can't remember what it is off the top of my head. And no I'm not talking about doublespace or any other compression technologies.
I won't go into the reasons why but I have personally created a 1.2 TB FAT32 partition. Funny thing is that the easiest way I found to format it was in linux.
Yes Corel is dead, but it was bought out by Xandros, and they have done an excelent job with it. Just as easy to install as corel, all the hardware detection you could want, and it has NTFS resizing, So mandrake is not the first with that. It does cost money, but it is well worth it for someone who is not a linux expert.
Slashdot Mirror
or for that matter now I guess Linux was made by OSDN.
actually mce does require a tv-tuner and not only that it requires a hardware encoding tv-tuner.
so is there a particular gui for ipsec you had in mind, or are you saying they should write one?
If one exists I would love to know about it, because I have been looking in vain for quite some time for a gui to ipsec on linux.

So I suspect you wouldn't mind going to jail for a year for the movies you've downloaded if you were cited?

Yes the 1.3 series in debian is the 2.0 prerelease version.

This is the same hp that is forcing it's workforce to take vacation during Christmas 2004
Man how do people put up with being treated this badly?
Funny thing is my openoffice opens them just fine.

yes well good luck finding a nick that has drivers on the netinstall disk. I've tried three so far and no go on any of them.
