  1. Well. on Linux Workstations in a Windows Domain? · · Score: 1

    If it's active directory you mean, you'll have to do quite some digging,
    and some black art configuration.
    www.samba.org is still a good starting place. Also check out the MIT kerberos archives.
    If its a traditional windows domain, samba has all you need including
    docs. Keywords are the winbind daemon, and some configuration of /etc/pam.d/* and /etc/nsswitch.conf files

  2. Re:Isn't that basically what is happening now? on Whatever Happened To The Mars Network? · · Score: 1

    "supposed" beeing the keyword.
    Any indications yet it's actually communicating with any of the orbiters ?

  3. Ask !? on Can I Distribute This? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Instead of asking slashdot, I suggest asking the vedors of the software
    one wants to include. Much better that way. Makes sense also..

  4. Re:XML ? on New Intermediate Language Proposed · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Indeed it is, still, people want to use it for just about anything it _wasn't_ desgined for. ;-(

  5. XML ? on New Intermediate Language Proposed · · Score: 4, Funny

    Did I see XML and performance in the same sentence ?! ... brain overload.. does not make sense...

  6. Re:Nvidia AGP + Fedora = Crash on NVIDIA Releases New Linux Drivers · · Score: 1

    I currently havn't compiled the kernel.
    Using the stock 2.4.22-1.2129.nptl from Fedora.

  7. Nvidia AGP + Fedora = Crash on NVIDIA Releases New Linux Drivers · · Score: 3, Informative

    Just FYI, the nvidia drivers contain their own AGP driver,
    it can be used by e.g. setting the XF86config option NvAGP=1.
    This reliably oopses the kernel in Fedora with this new driver.
    If anyone else wonder why the new driver don't work, make sure it uses
    the kernel AGP driver, not the nvidia one.

  8. Re:Good things about Norway on DeCSS: Jon Johansen Acquitted In Retrial · · Score: 1

    Lets not forget the Danish Bjarne Stroustrup, father of C++.(Though he made it while working for AT&T in the US.).

  9. Re:It definitely has separated ok on Beagle II Successfully Separates · · Score: 1

    You havn't by any chance an URL ? Or are they not
    published yet ?

  10. So Gandalf was a nerd ? on We Are All Nerds Now · · Score: 2, Funny

    I somewhat fail to see what's so nerdish about Lord of the Rings. Sure,
    alot of nerds have read the book. The books seems to have a cult status among nerds, though I really cannot find many nerds or why anyone would think of nerds while reading the books or watching the movies.

  11. Kino, Cinelerra on Building The Ultimate Video Editing Suite · · Score: 3, Informative

    Perhaps Kino and/or Cinelerra have some of the features you need ?
    The tutorials at http://www.robfisher.net/video/cinelerra1.html
    an d http://www.robfisher.net/video/kino.html might show you what they can do.

  12. Re:Who wants to stop light? on Scientists Freeze Pulse Of Light · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Well, humans do a lot of light pollution, you can easily call that spamming..

  13. Re:Whop!!! on Nuclear Powered Mission to Jovian Moons · · Score: 1

    Neptune is a gas giant. It's not blue oceans, its gas..
    neptune/uranus is also cold. I mean, _VERY_ cold.

  14. Re:Benchmarks on XFS Merged into Linux 2.4 · · Score: 1

    No it doesn't. replaying the jfs journal(initiated by fsck) is just as fast as xfs.

  15. Re:just what we need... on First Xouvert Milestone Released · · Score: 4, Informative

    Uhm, there are actually not that many X servers. It's not like windowmanagers or anything like that. Besides , the goal of Xouvert is to get their changes back to XFree

  16. Re:Does Anaconda support text on Download Anaconda for Debian · · Score: 1

    Anaconda is both text based and gui based. You choice. (provided they didn't just port the GUI part..)

  18. Well, on Spam Through HTTP Referrer Logs · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Last time I asked people about this, I was told this was script kiddies
    scanning for open proxies and similar things, using some certain scripts/whatever which annoyed the logs with falsifyed referes.

  19. Re:OS? on Debian Project Servers Compromised · · Score: 1

    Well, MS might want you to thing IIS is an OS, but .. it really is not.

  20. Re:Digital Signing of Packages? on Debian Project Servers Compromised · · Score: 1

    And one package cannot do any damage ?
    Nevertheless , how do you know that a developer, signed or not, are not trying to insert malicious source ? You might think you trust him but..

  21. Patches ? on NASA Installs Linux Supercomputer · · Score: 1, Funny

    Whewre can I get the patches from SGI to make 2.4 run on such insane hardware ?

  22. Re:Plain English on NetBSD's COMPAT_DARWIN Adds XDarwin Support · · Score: 1

    Sure it does. It grants users a few rights, and a few restrictions.
    Among others it grants the user the right to be able to get the sourcecode, and if he redisribute the program, he must be able to provide the sourcecode as well.

  23. Big Changes ? on Apache HTTP Server 1.3.29 Released · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Where are the big changes ? I see 8 more or less minor bugfixes.

  24. Re:hooray for usability on GTK 2.3, And The Emerging File Selector · · Score: 1

    No no. Most filechoosers I've seen provides an API to add custom elements to it.
    You might have seen some filedialogs that have a preview of an image besides it ?
    And the ability of Joe Random Coder to add elements is rather high since the source
    is available and anyone can fiddle with their dowloaded sources, no ?
    This was not an example of that though, thisone used the exposed API.

    The code is at http://kidcrash.no-ip.com/testfilechooser.c btw, I'm only sorry he had to use a word
    like Frobnicate, which seems to boil the brains of the average Slashdot reader..

  25. Re:hooray for usability on GTK 2.3, And The Emerging File Selector · · Score: 1

    It just shows that the GtkFileChooser can be extended with custom widgets/items.
    The coder of the example the sceenshot is taken from added a checkbox, and labeled it Frobnicate the file.
    * It was an example.
    * That checkbox is not going to be there in the standard dialog.
    * The UI might be somewhat diffrent in the final version
