I have an Athlon XP, a Coppermine laptop and a Ppro server in my room - LILO is set for 2 seconds... just enough for me to choose whether I want 2.4.22, 2.4.22-ck2 or 2.4.23.
Yes -there are plenty of those email clients that automagically sign/encrypt outgoing mail and decrypt incoming mail....
1) MUTT
2) mozilla -mail
3) Mozilla Thunderbird
4) Ximian Evolution
Just because Outlook/Eudora can't do GPG/PGP doesn't mean the rest of the world can't.
Maybe because instead of accepting the default config (like Keramik), I desire to customize it to my tastes. THis is of course where a lot UI problems come through - like immutable color settings/ color settings that control two things or more at once.
Frankly I don't give a rats ass. I am not trying to sell anything to anyone. You like KDE? Fine by me. I use GNOME because it suits my needs/tastes, not because of a political statement.
Maybe if the KDE worked out the kinks that make normal KDE proggies crash while taking the rest of KDE along for a nice lets-Ctrl-Alt-Backspace ride, no one would bitch about it.
Why is it out of 4 distros I used, KDE never functions for longer than 30 minutes out of the box? Sure, I can spend the next day getting fixes and recompiling and fixing and everything, and then turning away in disgust for the latest CVS Gnome and having NO STABILITY problems.
And since you enjoy slamming people, who disagree with your KDE-centric view, as (I guess White) "trailer trash," I am going to have tell to go back to your ghetto publik skool edumacation, ok bro'?
AFAIK the only (and buggy at that) hardware MIDI support is provided by the ALSA SB Live! drivers. But don't forget the awesfx toolset so you can actually load SF2 banks and get any sound...
The suport is buggy as the ALSA MIDI driver has a bad tendency to randomly drop notes, and the developers still don't know whats gone wrong.
And for you shitwits that might suggest "Timidity" - most people desire next-to-0 latency, something that cannot be provided by a user-space MIDI engine that gobbles-up system resources.
Actually they do - there is no OSS or Linux-oriented synthesis packages out there that can compete with anything currently available for IA32-Windows.
Sad, but true.
Yes yes - I/know/ there are/some/ projects that may look good in the future... but currently... no.
I'm STILL trying to find a tracker that doesn't have issues playing mods tracked in 1995 - like umm.... Karsten Koch's Aryx.s3m. of the trackers that I tried -
1 Couldn't open anything but mod and fasttracker files.
1 Couldn't open anything other than impulsetracker files.
1 had issues playing screamtracker files.
2 had issues with flaky sound output that randomly died at random times/places.
I'd run the modplug tracker but... ummm.. the UI looks fucked under Wine or WineX 3.1, so there...
P.S. Don't expect people to use JAZZ for Midi composition either...
Two fratricidal wars in a row...
Over the period of the 20th century, The Western Civilisation's tryst with Nietzschean Nihilism resulted in it teetering on the brink of physical suicide.
Good work.
And you figured this how?
Hey... maybe I should follow your lead and start ripping on minorities?
No thanks.
Engage brain before opening mouth, shitwit.
1) Sitting in your parents' darkened basement, in 3-month old clothes, unwashed and playing EverQuest
or
2) Sitting in your parent's darkened basement, in 3-month old clothes, unwashed, and watching 30-year old "SciFi" shows.
or
3) Just like my roommate and his loser friends - sitting in a cramped small room with 10 desks, unwashed, rejected, in 4-day old clothes - playing DND and talking about raping/pushing into a wall an imaginary girl in their DND campaign.
Is whenever you "challenge" the official party line, and step on the toes of loudmouth lobby groups who syphon off millions to fund a racist and apartheid state - fellow Slashdot trolls slam you with -infinity "Flaimbait" or "Troll"
Desperate situations provoke desparate acts.
If the country you were born in treated you as a 100th class citizen (more like a non-human, an animal) - and bulldozed your home and those of your family and friends - you'd set them up the bomb as well.
Yay, a terrorist racist state that sheds no tears for human rights has decided to use Open Source Software, if not for the sake that it doesn't cost any shekels - then for the sake of milking more US dollars out of Microsoft. (Not that I am fan of Microsoft, or anything, lol)
I can see whats going to be posted on Slashdot next -
1) Usama bin Laden chooses OSS software.
2) South Korea chooses OSS software over Microsoft.
LOL ok... Just because someone chooses OSS, doesn't mean you need to cream your freakin pants over it.

Sorry, Colton, but the reason I use Linux (a not-so-but-kinsa *nix) is not because I'd have to pay for MS.
:-D
You couldn't pay me to use Windows.
Ark Linux is not based on Debian, but is instead based on Red Hat. See the article - they admit that they've goofed.

Lets see a name behind that AC, errm?
This reminds me of something a couple of my friends did last year in the dorm - it was called "Power over Ethernet"
But I think they've wired it wrong since it didn't kill the NIC on the test-victim iMAC.
You mean "Kut it out of KDE, oKay?", right RoKway?
Toss and replace - you have a defective board. As much has I hate Creative, the Live! has some really good support (and good quality) under Linux.

I dare someone on slashdot to scare that poor sod by mailing him a BSA death thread
Not necessarily - 2 Mugs of Espresso at 1:00AM sure give an interesting third-person perspective to life... ;-D
Remove the card - reseat it back. Else try a different PCI slot. I had similar problems. At worst - chuck it and try a different Live!

4 hours? Maybe you shouldn't have compiled it on your 386.
Are you one of those weird rejects that keep seeing "natsis" and "rascsists" everywhere you go?

Care to explain the continued U.S. funding of one of the sides of this holocaust?
Hey! Maybe if you let them all simmer in their own juices for a while, Ahab the Arab wouldn't want to cast Jihad against the USA.
Just a thought.
Oh right - I forgot "offtopic." :rolleyes:
