  3. Configure line to build gaim at SuSE 8.2 on MSN Messenger Kickbans Third-Party IM Clients · · Score: 1

    YOu will need several packages to build gaim, such as gtk2-devel, glib-devel, mozilla-devel. If you install all the needed packages, get the gaim 0.70 source and use this configure line:
    ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome CFLAGS="-I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 " --enable-nss=yes --with-nspr-includes=/opt/mozilla/include/nspr --with-nss-includes=/opt/mozilla/include/nss --with-nss-libs=/opt/mozilla/lib --with-nspr-libs=/opt/mozilla/lib

  4. Re:Gaim 0.68 vs 0.71 on MSN Messenger Kickbans Third-Party IM Clients · · Score: 1

    You could not connect with Gaim 0.68 because the MSN Protocol version 9 support was added at the 0.69 number.

    I received the same message. I was unsing Gaim 0.70 self-building. I knew that the new protocol used ssl, then I tryed to compile it using Mozilla SSl libraries. It is working now.

    I do like Mozilla Full Suite too, but for Instant Messages you show try Gaim.

  8. Re:Mozilla Firebird on Top 10 Software Titles Every Home PC Needs? · · Score: 1

    In fact I prefer Mozilla Full Suite, because of the Mail Client, Dom Spector, Javascipt Debugger,etc.. But I may agree that as a stand-alone browser, Firebird beats Opera, Konqueror, Galeon and some others. Oh, even IE.

    Well, it may be the slashdot effect, but you should check the kernel.org bandwidth usage. It it's full, then yeap, it's slashdot effect.

    I wonder if I can tell SCO off because of the kernel panic I am getting with this new release. Btw, I own a SCO License

    Doesn't this realese seems like the 2.4.13? The RCs came out just one week after the other. Please God, hope to have no VM issue!

  16. Free from fee? on "Stolen" SCO Linux Code Snippets Leaked · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Well, if it proves that the "stolen code" is ia64 architeture specific, I gues I won't have to pay at all a thing to SCO to run Linux at my Duron. Sco, any comments?

  17. Chewbacca Defense, Argentinian Attack on SCO Attorney Declares GPL Invalid · · Score: 2, Funny

    Yes, this SCO deal is pissing everybody off. If the original post says they are using th chewbacca defense, I would go further and say that they used the Argentinian attack, just like at Falkland.

  18. Brazilian elections are 100% eletronic on India Chooses All-Electronic Voting · · Score: 1

    This India election isn't the first to be 100% eletronic. The election of the Brazilian president last year was 100% eletronic. And the Brazilian population isn't as big as Indian, but it's a very large country, with almost 200 million population. So, in a metter of facts, there isn't any big news about this

  19. Freedom at least! Bye, Netscape on The Mozilla Foundation · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I hope that this is the first sleep toward the complet independency from Netscape (read AOL). The Mozilla project did such a great job for all those years, and AOL just kept it down. Well, AOL. So long for all the (mis)help, but Mozilla has to move on.

  20. About those fairytale analogies... on Browser Wars II: The Saga Continues · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Certainly this guy, Peter, has some very good points about the "so-called" Browser Wars II, such as:
    - Users do not know (or even want to know) about browsers.
    - Do not talk about stardards at all
    - Microsoft will leave a "4 to 6" years gap, so there is a good chance to get some considerable piece of the maket share.

    But he forgot about the new Mozilla roadmap and Firebird, the lightweigth stand-alone browser. This is our "hero" against the Senile Monter (IE)

    By the way, Those fairtale analogy sucks.

  22. Re:Wright brothers my ass! on Kiwi Flight Before the Wright Brothers? · · Score: 1

    This Dumont/Wrigth deal has been a diplomacy issue for quite some time. At the 30's, the Brazilian president, Getulio Vargas, sent a personal letter to the US embassy, requiring the authorship of the first plane to Dumont. The embassy said it would get more information, but it was then forgotten.

    As long as Brazil is not a rich and influent country, the US version was spread worldwide.

    One thing that differs from the Mozilla 1.2 and 1.2.1 release notes is that it encoureges us to upgrade Linux users to Macromedia Flash 6 Beta

    It says that Mozilla 1.3 may not support previous versions of Flash.

    I have not tested it yet, but they say that one of the bugs from Mozilla that annoyes me most was fixed: mozilla crashes when openning flash content in a remote display

  25. Privacy and solid consumer relationship on RadioShack Stops Being Nosy · · Score: 1

    It's very nice to see that RadioShack finally notice that privacy invasion is not a good politic to deal with consumers, as we are not keen on giving away our privacy just to buy a pair of batteries.

    Infortunattly this was an isolated attitude, and I think we should not count on the entreprises's goodwill. It urges a federal specific law
