From http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/: This project was created by Intel to enable support for the Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG and 2915ABG Network Connection miniPCI adapters. This project (IPW2200) is intended to be a community effort as much as is possible given some working constraints (mainly, no HW documentation is available).
From http://support.intel.com/support/notebook/sb/CS-00 6408.htm: Intel® PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection A Linux driver is currently under development. A pre-production version of the device driver is available as detailed below.
Do you realize how much time, how many thousands of man hours go into these cards?
Do you realise how much time it may take to develop an alternative OS?
Yep, they could "steal"* if it is BSD licensed and make their derivative works closed.
That's the main goal of the GPL, if I get it right: let users free of doing anything they want except reducing freedom of others.
* it is not theft as it is allowed by the BSD license. Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm willing to learn)
Neither Windows nor Unix, but I've set up Feed on Feeds on my webserver and I like it!
It's a "PHP/MySQL server side RSS/Atom aggregator", so you can read your feeds wherever you are, you only need a web browser on the client side.
Pros: 1) you don't need to synchronize the state between the multiple workstations you might use. 2) no platform/os problem on the client side.
Cons: 1) you need some web hosting with PHP and MySQL available (I pay 45 a year for my domain name + 30MB Webspace + 30MB FTP + 30MB MySQL base + 100*25MB pop/imap accounts + SSL everywhere). 2) no installer so you'll need many computing skills to set it up (no that hard). 3) no automated update, you have to click "Update" so you may miss some news when you offline (see away from any internet access) for a long period...
Changed my online life as I no longer have to install anything on the client side (usefull when away from your home/office) or have to synchronize my feeds either with some removable storage (my USB key failed after 250+ daily syncs) or through the net (BottomFeeder, a smalltalk implementation which works on every platform I ever came accross, allows to sync with an FTP location).
So, Lindows agreed "not to post on its website any links or directions to other locations from which users may download unauthorized copies of the Windows Media Files from other sources." but isn't this page linking to an an authorized copy of those files.
Oops, I almost missed this one: "Within ninety (90) days of the Effective Date of this Settlement Agreement, Lindows shall cease any further use or distribution of the Windows Media Files in any product or by any method of distribution. Lindows, its successors in interest, and present and future subsidiaries agree to make no further use of the Windows Media Files in any product at any time."
You're making the point of the RIAA and others: a harsh sentence that will break the life of some will (hopefully (for them)) make the others think twice before committing the crime.
... but it's not limited to encrypted P2P networks.
It won't work with any P2P application that is not providing detailed downloads/uploads statistics to the music industry (or any other third party that is supposed to determine how much of the cake is each artist entitled to get): they can't possibly monitor every exchange on every P2P network.
More seriously, when they register domain names, I believe it's more to prevent abuses than anything else... There are more than 1800 domain names registered containing the google keyword.
... I just got an amazing deal on real good Champagne (I live near Champagne, France) at 5.6 (euro) a bottle.
IANAT (tastewine-r) but still can pretend having some taste;)
Slashdot Mirror
Evil? You meant fair use, isn't it?
Please do not crack it until its final and distributed in tons of players.
Well, it has to download the JAR in order to check if it is signed.
Please do not take this post into account.
The new chipset is the Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG and has linux drivers:o 2915abg/index.htm

For the record, "Awesome" is not an acronym, therefore shouldn't be capitalised.

Just noticed they got an IE extension also.
Ever heard of BugMeNot?
In french (and on the ESA website), thousands are separated by spaces and not dots nor commas, i.e. 10 000 instead of 10.000
That's $10 * 12 months = $120 per year.
I pay €45 (about $55) per year which is half what you're paying, hence the difference in service.

PS: Just noticed the euro sign isn't slashdot friendly (must use "€").
Well, I don't have access to the crontabs on this host (which is shared among several other customers of the web hosting company).

Just like it was not conceivable to download 1:1 DVD rips a few years ago.
Technology rulez.
PS: Plus, if it can be ripped, it will still be possible to convert the 30GB HD-DVD movie into a 700MB Xvid movie.
And what if someone find a security hole in the automated installation system and exploits it to install backdoors or trojans?

... they also registered the following domain names:
googleporn.com
googlesucks.com
Can we expect better content from Google soon?

The true name for a Champagne without any sugar addition is "sans dosage" which can be translated as "without any additive".
