Sorry but another 16:9 display failure... Think I stick with my Lenovo Thinkpad X301 running Linux MINT out-the-box without any extra drivers via ppa's and has a 13.3" 16:10 display @ 1440x900:)
I agree. The only way to show that this DRM protected is shite is for people not to buy.
Copying media in my option has never been a problem, I've had a a lot of tape copys from people and went and brought the cd/tape because I really like the music.
Same with movies and TV, I've brought DVD's and TV boxed sets after downloading DIVX copys from the 'net.
If the boys at the top (RIAA/MPAA) ensure there music is cheap enough its a no brainer. The real battle is here is that 'they' want to tell you want to buy and set any price they like. Its all about control (time to put on your tin hat). Well fuck them, where the consumers we should decide what to buy, and what is an accecptable price. So back to my orginal point, the only way to show is with your wallet....
I run an amd64 setup , and have setup up a 32bit dchroot, for running mplayer + w32codecs and firefox (32bit). I found some instructions on the ubuntu forums on how to do this.
I am 28 too, and I've been using computers since about the same age. The only problem I get is a sore shouder.
This is from playing to far to much quake at uni ( 4-6 hrs solid with no breaks ) and playing sports like I am superman, I got rather badly banged up againest a wall playing uni-hockey. My right shoulder took a rather nasty hit:(
I think I get around the wrist and sore fingers problems because I played the guitar and piano from about 13'ish which has strengthed up my wrists and fingers.
maybe for you, but my toshiba laptop has a glidepad with 2 buttons and i have no problem using both bottons either left or right handed..
It is one of the things that puts me of apple laptops:(
when your boot up, you can all the following kernel parameters boot=/dev/hdeX root=/dev/hdeX to get around this problem without having to find a boot disk.
How you add these parameters depends on what bootloader your using:o)
for me its lilo, I just type bzImage , I can't remember of the top of head how to do it using grub.
what closed source drivers for there motherboards are you refering too ?
I've got a nforce2 board (ASUS a7n8x deluxe) and the following hardware is all running using GPL'ed drivers:
* On board IDE (AMD74XX). * Audio (nvaudio). * SATA controller (siimage).Not part of the nforce2 chipset, but used on many nforce2 boards. * Onobard 3com NIC (3c59x). * Onboard sensors are supported by lm-sensors, currently only from CVS, and most likely be in the next release.
The only part of the nforce2 platform that I know off that isn't GPL'ed is the onboard nvidia NIC (uses a binary blob with wrapper around it).
Apple make money from hardware sells, why would they spend money developing software to run hardware not brought from them ?. They have to pay for use of the mpeg2 encoder in iDVD as well.
Invoking the DMCA might of been over the top, but they have to protect there business.

BeOS and OpenBSD are NOT linux !

You can also get a E50 with no camera. However, it doesn't have 3G.
in the apple way, it would be iGames :P

Does the open sourcing of Quake3 engine mean Quake4 is coming soon, I hope so, always liked Raven games.
the videora app is "re-invite" the wheel, since you can use Azureus + RSSFeed plugin to do something very similiar to what they application does :P

if they wanted to be "really" nice they would use the OpenDocument format, instead of inventing there own :o)
To me, this sounds like a PR stunt to win more govement contracts.
I am not going to celebrate yet.
I wonder how easy it is to convert between the 2 ?
3. Profit !
I find 3 or 4 cans of cider has the same effect, sleep solid for a good 8 hours where nothing will wake me up :P

anyone got a mirror of the screenshots :)
anyone know if theres a UK supplier for these flash carts ?
I just got one these boards, + some OCZ DDR 3500 ram + XP 2600 + themoright SLK-800 for about 550 GBP. I all ready have a DVD drive hd case etc ...
The board is very stable and fast, it kicks the pants of any VIA based motherboard I've used.
BTW both of the onboard NIC's are 10/100, which is more than fast enough for a home network.

Jees, people seem to think apple are a charity
if you click the link at the bottom of the page for www.amazon-books.org it takes you to amazon.com :).
;-p
Looks like amazon managed to get that domain
just copy over your old config and do 'make oldconfig'
../kernel-2.4.19/.config .
i.e.
$ cp
$ make oldconfig
this will let you see what new options there is in the kernel.
if you look in the readme that you can get to from the link, you would see only x86 (P3 and higher) is required.
I work for a company in the mobile phone market, based in the UK, and theres no chance of M$ getting anywhere fast in the mobile market:))
sorry had to be done :)
they most likely go for adding the data to your .net passport :).
