I feel that this software would greatly benefit anyone that is losing money to piracy every day. I've started work on a GTK+ clone, and it's coming along quite well, actually. Are there any other efforts out there under way?
FreeBSD was started for the purpose of making a quality UNIX port to the x86 architecture. All of the ports of FreeBSD to other platforms are really secondary, and often not for production-level machines.
If you think Linux is a serious competitor to Solaris on Sparc, you've got another thing coming. Linux doesn't scale nearly as well as Solaris on any platform, including x86, nevermind Sun's native platform. Perhaps the OSes should stick with what they do best instead of half-assed approaches to secondary platforms?
Have you checked out the latest jobs update for 2.4? Take a look: http://linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2000-05 -25-020-04-NW-KN . I don't know about you, but I think I might wait a little longer on this one...that whole data corruption thing really gets to me. =)
In light of the current situation, I think this could be very interesting (or mildly amusing) to see which group, MS or the open-sourcers, comes up with a fix first. Something tells me it won't be the guys over at M$ that got paid to copy the code into their OS.
You're kidding, right? This letter is completely unrelated to the matter at hand concerning Microsoft's request for censorship. Your letter is entirely a list of cheap shots that are the culmination of recent discussions on Slashdot in response to Microsoft's actions towards the Kerberos protocol. I really hope this is a joke guys, cause otherwise you need a better legal defense team. This is the most unprofessional thing I've seen this week^H^H^H^H month.
And? Heavy Gear II was ported to Linux from a Direct3D-only game to OpenGL. Sure it took some work, but Loki did it and it looks awesome. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for some new gaming action.
For all those that want to rag on Glide, keep in mind which of the 3 APIs are fastest, free, and work best under Linux. Okay, so you can play Quake 3 under Linux with your Nvidia. I can play everything and faster at that with my Voodoo X. Suck it.
There is a single paragraph discussing forking without any proof behind it. The rest of the three-page article discusses Linux's impact on the market and how it has been gaining ground on NT and is upsetting the server OS balance. What's the problem here?
it is nice to see a console with some punch. Don't get me wrong, I love Mario Kart 64 as much as the next guy, but at 90mhz, the graphics were great but severely underpowered. When too many things started going on at once, especially explosion in Goldeneye, the N64 video would just lag like hell. Then again, if a console starts crashing, I think I'd prefer it being underpowered and stable, much like my trusty army of 486's. =)
I have no problem with it being done at all...

Linux Port for N64?
·
· Score: 1
but what was he planning on using it for? The standard N64 has a 90mhz processor and decent video hardware. This is severely underpowered as is, as playing Goldeneye or Mario Kart shows when too much stuff starts happening at once (which isn't much, I might add). Now imagine trying to play a game with 3D hardware under Linux, which is naturally slower at rendering, and this is starting to get disgusting. He could use it for something else, you say? Dewd, it's a game console.
Alright, so it sounds just great, but I have to ask: How is VA Linux involved in this? They are a Linux reseller who basically build Intel machines and install Linux on them with a decent warranty. They are in no way connected to hardware develeopment, and I doubt that they'll be the only one's distributing the hardware component of this new standard. Sounds like a stretch to keep the run going after their IPO has been forgotten.
There was also the jump from glibc 2.0 to 2.1.X. This was very major and even caused a reliance on RPMs until samba, ssh, and apache were reworked so that they would compile correctly.
This has been out for a few weeks now, and anyone can grab the.iso image from ftp.redhat.com. What I'm really waiting on is the alpha version, which is always horridly slow in being released. The Multia desperately needs an upgrade right about now. Any news on this?
is to bomb NSI with emails over this politely asking not to be such a jerk and get it back to him. I only later realized that it was registered by a competing registration company. Surely you can't say that NSI isn't responsible. This is an open and shut case.
what is the real purpose in having only certain programs exportable with 128-bit encryption? Once one browser is exportable, the cat is really out of the bag. Not that it hasn't always been obtainable...
They will be releasing updated executables of both so that CDs can swap for either OS as you have suggested. It will be a couple of months though, so support Linux today!
that with XFree86 often being synonymous with X, that they would have been invited long ago, if not present since the beginning of the Linux revolution. I'm disappointed at the lack of recognition that XFree has received, even until now.
Debian totes that it is a completely free distribution of Linux, and likes to look down on those that package things like Netscape and StarOffice in their distributions because they are not totally free. Meanwhile, Debian packages these things as well, but puts them in a section declared to be "non-free." How is that you can still maintain your air of superiority for a "free" distribution if you're distributing the same non-free programs as everyone else, yet still look down on distros such as RedHat solely because they don't keep a seperate non-free section? Would this not fall under the category of hypocrisy?
As much as the PIII and Celeron locking is a pain for legit overclockers, it does make a useful way to keep fraudulent dealers at bay. When socket 7 boards were the rule of the land, AMD had a huge problem with people selling overclocked 233 and 266 -> 300 chips and they ended up puting notes in their manuals and all over web pages informing people to check their CPUs carefully. I'm glad to see they were being honest about it, even if it wasn't their fault.
I've obtained a patent on the one-foot-followed-by-another walking method, as no one has yet to do so. Anyone seen using this method between the hours of 11:30 AM and 1 PM in a public area with be charged an exorbitant license fee, lest they be sued. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
I don't really care what browser I use as long as it's stable and usable. I currently use Netscape 4.7 128-bit. By definition, it is slow, sluggish, and full of bugs, but I have found there to be a great increase in stability since the 4.6 series. It no longer crashes every couple of days of being running without restart. When something better comes along I'll use that, but until then, I'll stick with what works. There's no real reason to be partial just for a name's sake, in my humble opinion.
and it's not Bill Gates. The man you want is Dr. Clayton Forrestor. Had he never shot Mike into space, he never would have hit the Hubble with the Satellite of Love. It wasn't win98's minimal driver set under safe mode this time, but that most evil man of them all...ahhh!!

Hey buddy, I made that joke earlier today, and you know it. That's it, I'm off for court. Your *ss is mine! I'll make M$ look like a small deal, baby.
