i thought about this, but i wasnt certain how much slower it would be considering the ram usage of knoppix, i have the luxury of two other desktops to experiment with whileim waiting for it to compile. mostly i used a winxp box (em* bows head in shame) and ssh'd while i did it. my next question is how long should asterisk take to compile which is to be my next protage
ive been installing gentoo for the last 2 days.. i figured i wanted to see how easy it was to install kde, as a gui for the experience and just for fun. it has now been compiling on my pc (800 mhz and 128mb of ram ) for 12 hours. best learning experience ive had yet with linux, as a newbie, but im amazed at how long its taking to compile.
hopefully before i go to sleep.
i am aware this is somewhat offtopic, but being a sucker for eye candy i went to look at a screenshot,
is this glassy look the new "avalon" desktop look that microsoft will be heading towards and downloadable for xp? (originally intended for longhorn release)?
i am curious as i havent seen many current screenshots of the gui in longhorn.

ai: what is it when a dell technician reads you a script they themselves cannot and refuse to deviate from?
as for the rest of your commentary, you make blanket statements with no supporting facts; this makes you not smart in debating or supporting a statment
hopefully these armies of idiots of which you speak so readily are prepared to listen ill prepared arguments about why they are useless, and why they should help you.
the incas were a very slow and late civilisation (they reached their civilisations apparent peak roughly around 1650) they are and never have been an american indian tribe, they are peruvian. the andes made it very difficult for centralisation of power to occur due to difficulty in travel, but it absolutely absurd to think that inca means indian, to an american. and even more absurd to think the concept of 0 began as late as 1650
wep is breakable because it uses predictable methods of encryption, simple programs and a little bit of time will break the encryption. ill leave the name of the software out of this but i assume most people know whati am speaking of. not to mention one i read about that some prankesters used to inject code into packets using to pcs. i love 802 11 b/g but there is an inherent lack of security. although this wallpaper seems very foolish
, and that is very possible, hell it is even likely. but from what i know, IBM and microsoft have much bad blood between them. (stemming from microsofts walking away from os2, which left ibm with a huge investment in an unfinished product) now IBM has made a huge commitment to legitimize linux, by offering money support etc, this helps their business model which is a service based one at that. they make more money offering support if linux succedes. IBM supports many of the fortune 500 companies american express etc. now if microsoft goes throwing patent infringment lawsuits against a software that is pivotal in their growth market why would they invest the time to build it up in the first place? so they could get money from suing it later on ? come on now, be realistic.. IBM wants linux to succede, and microsoft to lose ground. to make a blanket statement we will not use the patents against linux would be foolish and dangerous as they cannot see the future of all things, however i do not believe it is their intention and they came up very quickly and asked others to do the same. does this seem like a smoke screen to shade their ultimate plan... c
olor me naive but i think ibm has a business model here that involves linux succeding...
kde, gnome, sun java desktop goneme, how many desktops will there be before one of them becomes truly useful.. or is the linux community not concerned with this?

Any situation which has one party depending on the knowledge of one person that the frustrated end user lacks, involves the potential triggers for defensive behaviors. Annoying is perceptive, not a defineable act. What rgiggers someone to be defensive, is usually the need to feel intelligent. A simple mechanism to confirm ones ability to be relevant and important in the world. Powerlessness isnt good for the psyche. Now this can exist in any realm, politics, mechanics, policing, lawyering etc.. the mode to resolve this is a shift in understanding not simple cliches and political correctness ( dont use that word its a geek word , don't ooppress me)... besides this looks like a bullsh*t medium to sell a book.
a couple if softwaresi find indespensiblein the windows world, hijack this, firefox, winamp, winrar,

other than this not too much i can think of, will the pc be going online at all?

if it is paid for by taxpayers monies, then it should be freely accessible.. why limit it to people who want a business model off of it. if it devalues their business model, so be it they were only pimping on something we already paid for. their content wasnt theirs to begin with.

Has anyone ever looked through the microsoft source code, or even apple for that matter to see how many law suits could be designed. im certainthere are many ip abuses among them as well, accept no on e can get in and look at their code. if lawsuits were turned on the big giant or apple, what would be the result. at least open source has a community openness so they artent hiding thiese things from others..
lets see why would someone want to install a new browser other than ie, lets see 1. security 2 no adwares installing 3 no pop ups, 4 tabbed browsing
5 standards based 6 ive never had the release candidate crash even once. 7 1 click vulnerability exploits that allow complete control of a machine. 8 this isnt a pencil this is open source software which the last i checked was a whole lot more involved and complicated than a pencil (except maybe for some simplistic users) 9 you get a free al sharpton compass medallion with each download.
all humor aside what just works about internet explorer? i do tedhsupport for a living and get som many calls about internet explorer users so congested with adware apps that cant get online i bring firefox as a necessity to help fix them.
Give me a good, solid reason why I should download a new program, complete with potential problems do y ou aske yourself this question every time you try something new like a new movie new food make new friend sleave the house go to the airport go to a new country? you might be surprised what you learn by thinking and doing rather than defending your decision to not try something new.
way off mang.
it is a ground up build with new addon ans a completely different interface and code base. i prefer its tabbed browsing.. its small and by far my favorite browser.

WEEN has been making an application geared to freely distribute their shows as mp3 and video and pics, via p2p which will be free. no purchasing of their live shows. operates in a way similar to bit torrent. hopefully it will be readied soon, should make the grass roots of the next generation a viable method. long live the boognish... www.ween.com
i viewed the elegant universe, the other day by brian green, and am currently reading the text, much has changed in theory over the last 44 years, string theory for one, currently holds the possiblility that gravtiy strings are looped and therefore capable of jumping from our current brane/dimension. will this allow and or test for this theory or is the device antiquated before deployment? I guess thats a risk involved with such a long dev cycle. hopefully it will take this into account, or has the CERN project already made this redundant?
i did some looking around, didnt find anything online that offered anything in the way of free food. but i can be a clumsy webcrawler. if you are genuinely hungry there are several options is there a reachout program in youre area are you too rural? more details would be appreciated. if you are serious, id gladly mail you some food... i understand this may be a joke, but if it isnt you all should be ashamed of yourselves.
its easy to buy these missiles on the black market, much more so than it is to develop them. if you are serious then i would say suck it up do your own research and read the genenva conventions about what the actual limitations are on these weapons.
other than this stop wasting oxygen.
hmm let me rephrase this, (and as a disclaimer 4 hours of drinking aside) what does this pda hold at 699 dollars that a sony clie doesnt, or any other pda, the gui interface seems clunky, the processor speed isnt uber elite, (other pcs pdas have these processors for less) and the os which should be open source and free isnt a factor so why the 699 dollar price tag? there are many with more memory and storage at a significantly cheaper price..
plus there are less apps for the zaurus than a palm or wince, at a cheaper price.. id like to buy a linux pda, but this doesnt make it seem nearly worthwhile. as a matter of fact it completely marginalizes the product by being overpriced for what it really is.
im trying to decide what the real advantage of a pda that costs 700 dollars is? portability aside where it the payoff? oqo had an intersting idea in full pc power in a sub laptop size but that has seemingly become vaporware.. what is the true advantage to this device other than it being (linux)?
