  1. Small companies on Desktop Linux Sliding in Under the Radar? · · Score: 1

    I work for what would be considered a small business based solely on the number of employees we have. The people in our network operations center, myself included have moved our own workstations over to RH 9 and I couldn't be happier with it. The IT guy (yes we only have one) found out, asked a couple questions and then scratched our names off the list of people that he needed to get XP licences for in an upcoming upgrade. We were also able to get rid of the very expensive licences we held for an xwindows server since this is build into linux. The only thing I have noticed that we lack is really good image editing software since I find Gimp difficult to use and clumsy compared to Illustrator or Photoshop. ~Nelm

  2. Re:possible answers? on ATI's Radeon Linux drivers no longer supported? · · Score: 1

    I tried these drivers. And while they worked and did improve system performance by allowing direct rendering. The person that sits next to me has an nVidia card that is much older. He was able to download linux drivers right from the web site that seemed to have excellent results! My workstation with the ATI Rage 128 still can't run the Open GL screensaves without hanging...

  3. Re:Original LWN discussion on SCO Protest And Anti-Protest In Provo · · Score: 1

    You speak French instead of German because we do what we want with the world. Show some respect for a country that has twice come to the rescue of France spilling American blood to save your conntry from a dictator just like Sadam. *Americans against rectal-cranial inversion* ~Nelm
