  1. Re:Red hat and linux sucks on Red Hat Linux 9 Release And Interview · · Score: 1

    Apparently you have not seen Red Hat since the 6.2 days...

    They now have Anti-Alased fonts throughout the system and I prefer reading Slashdot using Red Hat then any Windows product =)

  2. Red Hat 9 for Workstation on Red Hat Linux 9 Release And Interview · · Score: 5, Informative

    I've been using RH 9 on my laptop and Home PC for the last couple of days and if you don't mind the minor problems of no mp3 or DVD playback out-of-the-box and the new threading (and glibc 2.3.2) really causing problems with Wine...it's a great release. Much more refined then the 8 release (and the menus make more since to use)

    To get around the Wine problem you need to "export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 " and "rm -rf ~/.wine/wineserver*" The Wineserver has been resolved with WineHQ's CVS and the other branches are picking up now. The threading problems with the kernel might take some time...

  3. Re:Windows Folks are Playing Games Written Recentl on Duke3d in Linux · · Score: 1

    That's funny, I have UT2003 running great with Linux...try enabling OpenGL 3D Acceleration support or don't buy an ATi card

    And there will be a Medal of Honor port soon...
    No Release date yet though...

    ...Go nVidia!

    Troll? Damn, that hurts =(

  5. Jumping the gun guys.... on Duke3d in Linux · · Score: 5, Informative

    Basic gameplay is there, but the fun stuff doesn't work...

    What doesn't work/known bugs:
    * Windows port doesn't exist yet, but is probably just a matter of getting it to compile (the engine itself is already ported).
    * Networking/modem/multiplayer at all.
    * Resampling of audio is broken, so sometimes duke sounds weird.
    * Mouse/joystick input isn't working yet.
    * Demos are broken (they are broken in the initial source release, too).
    * Probably other stuff. Do NOT consider this stable and complete yet!

  7. Re:Released on April Fools... on Duke Nukem 3D Source Released to GPL · · Score: 2, Funny

    Ya, that looks very simular to what I submitted...

    * 2003-04-01 18:04:15 Duke Nukem 3D source code available (articles,games) (rejected)

    I guess we're not special enough =)

  8. LOL, good one! on Gnomemeeting Closes the Source · · Score: 0, Redundant

    We decided to close the source code of GnomeMeeting because we think it is a good way to produce more secure software.

    Funny stuff! =)

  9. Re:I saw it too, and have to admit I freaked on Meteor Over Midwest · · Score: 1

    All I can say is I'm glad that some local news made it past all the Iraq coverage. So very true. I was up late working on my laptop when suddenly there was a bright light outside and it kind of slowly faded away (slow fade for a bright flash at least ;)) The thought of a nuke was in my head for about 1/10th of a second, it was a blueish light simular to lightning. I didn't hear the boom at all, which puzzled me but I just went to bed thinking it was heat lightning or something...the found out in the morning it was a rock! That was quite a suprise =) With how bright it was, my guess is that it was mostly tungstien and iron?...but that's just my guess
