  2. Re:Kernel Acceleration on Linux Kernel 2.6.6 Released · · Score: 1
    2.4 is hovering in the low 20's as far as minor rev. number at this point.

    As in 2.4.26... (emphasis mine).

  3. Re:GIMP is FREE on The Gimp from the Eyes of a Photoshop User · · Score: 1

    How many designers have actually approached the Gimp developers with useful feedback and constructive criticism?

    Most of the comments here are just stating that the Gimp has a bad interface and that Photoshop is much better, statements that in themselves aren't useful - while they may very well be absolutely true - in terms of *actually improving* the Gimps interface.

    So how about it super-cool graphics designers, why not put your brains where your mouths are and actually come up with ideas for improvement backed by reasonable arguments?

  4. Re:Ok great on Geronimo 1.0 Milestone Build M1 Released · · Score: 1

    It's an Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) container, where you can deploy enterprise archives and ... well, run them.

    Think Tomcat, which is a container for web applications. Geronimo runs along the same vein but for EJB's. In fact it incorporates a Servlet/Web/JSP container of its own, namely Jetty.

    Ok, so: what is it?

    In "Preferences" on Google you can choose among some of the common filters present in most unixen-like-distributions - among those "Bork, bork, bork!", "Elmer Fudd" and "Hacker".

  8. Re:who cares about Denmark?? on Danish Court Rules Deep Linking Illegal · · Score: 1

    Danes care somewhat about Denmark.

    And given that Denmark is part of the European Union, stuff that happens in Denmark can potentially have a minor influence on the rest of Europe.

    Best regards,

    Adam, from guess-where, who thinks - like everybody sane - that the Danish newspapers association has gone absolutely bonkers.

  9. Re:The original SSH license on SSH Claims Trademark Infringement by OpenSSH · · Score: 1
    Any derived versions of this software must be clearly marked as such, and if the derived work is incompatible with the protocol description in the RFC file, it must be called by a name other than "ssh" or "Secure Shell".
    Sure looks like 'permission' to me.
    Errr he gave permission to derive work from SSH, and permission to call your project something other than SSH and Secure Shell. Read the text again. It says you have to call it something else if it is incompatible with the spec.

    So if it's compatible with the spec (which I guess it pretty much has to, to work/be usable) the above quoted text does not tell you to call it something different from "ssh" or "Secure Shell".

    It rather hints at the opposite, I'd say.

    Gnome is running on my Mac (iBook) constantly. Doesn't look strange to me.
