  1. Re:Yea! on Linux v2.6 Begins Testing · · Score: 1

    That is nice, but I guess I have to keep the SCSI anyways, for the 1394 to me iPod.

  2. Re:I got it before the /.ing on Linux v2.6 Begins Testing · · Score: 5, Informative

    For example. /dev/hda, /dev/hdb/, /dev/hdc now become /dev/discs/disc0, /dev/discs/disc1, /dev/discs/disc2

    That is called devfs, and as far as I know is an optional thing. At least it was in 2.4-series, and I really really doubt it isn't in 2.5 and will be in 2.6. So just skipp the CONFIG_DEVFS_FS and CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT and use your old nodes.

  3. bad timing on Linux Kernel 2.4.21 Released · · Score: 1

    JUST as I was building my new lfs-system, and now kernel.org is slashdotted! GAH!!!

    Who still cares about BeOS?
    I do :)

    So, Be fans, what makes BeOS so special?
    Last time I tried it was some years ago on my 400MHz. It was goodlooking, felt very quick, and overall nice. It is easy to move from Windows to BeOS. As my dad now uses the old 400MHz:er, with Windows of course (he refuses to use anything new), I thought that he maybe was willing to use BeOS. Linux with GNOME or KDE is way too slow on his old comp.

    The lack of programs is the problem. What he needs is:

    A office-like collection of programs (word, excell, etc)

    Mozilla :)

    A image-editor like Gimp

  6. Re:IPv6? on Asia Running Out Of IP Addresses · · Score: 1

    It was probably loads of fun to manually set this up, but it works

    Well, the problem could be solved (not for your school district, but overall) by simply redirect all incoming connections to the correct computer behind the nat, with the same technic as your school there.

    But that would rise a new problem, we would be out of domainnames! Imagine aaaaaa...aa.zzzz.jp, aaaaaa...ab.zzzz.jp ;)

  7. Re:IPv6? on Asia Running Out Of IP Addresses · · Score: 1

    Read it once more, he says:

    mail.nths.nvusd.k12.ca.us request on port 80 go to 10.10.10.3:80
    nths.nvusd.k12.ca.us request on port 80 goes to 10.10.10.2

    Since when do "just port forwarding" forward connection to same port, to different hosts?

    As he said, they check which domainname the client connects to, and redirect the connection to on of their internal (behind the nat) servers acording to this.

  8. Re:You can't on Famous Last Words: You can't decompile a C++ program · · Score: 1

    Information is lost in compilation. You can never reconstruct the exact original source. You end up with valid C++ that has no more human-understandable information than the equivilent machine code.

    Of course you can! You just make a program that generates random C++ source, compiles it, and diffs the output with the orginal file. If they match, you have the exact orginal sourcecode ;)

  9. Re:Oh please. on Blender Gets Audio Sequencing · · Score: 0, Troll

    Paint Shop Pro 5 doesn't even compare to MS Paint, and you can get that nowadays for free, it comes with windows, you only have to pay a $100 for windows. Or whatever it costs, I have never seen it for sale actually, haha.
