  1. Bogus! on GraphOn Patents Remote Windows Apps Over X · · Score: 1

    Citrix has been doing this for years, longer than VNC has existed.

    Yet another example of the US Patent Office being totally incompetent when it comes to high-tech issues.

  2. Re:View in Linux on Home Cookin': The Electric CD Acid Test · · Score: 1

    Why avoid links to videos using QT 4.0????? _I_ have access to both a windows box and VMware....Platform facism is wrong no matter who is its subject....

  3. Re:When RAID? or Damn Dell! on Adaptec Ultra 160MB/sec SCSI support for Linux · · Score: 1

    I also am quite interested in getting support for Adaptec RAID controllers. Until then I will stick to AMI controllers, which aren't bad.

    Dell's PERC's used to be all AMI products, until the release of the PERC2 which is an Adaptec controller. That is why Dell's Linux boxes only come with the PERC2/SC (single channel) which is a low-end AMI U2/LVD RAID controller. This card is useless for anything other than a workgroup server.

  4. But I can't buy one with Linux (yet) on Dell Buys Equity in Red Hat · · Score: 1

    We (large accounts) have been able to get Linux boxes from Dell for a long time on their workstation and PowerEdge lines. I also believe that Dell was the first top-tier vendor to offer their servers w/o any OS.

    As for Dell saying that RH5.2 only supports single-processor systems, this is true. You have to re-build the kernel for SMP support, and SMP support in 5.2 is EXPERIMENTAL.

    I, for one, am quite pleased with Dell's Linux offerings. It could be worse - they could be endorsing only Caldera or something even more useless in helping get Linux into the enterprise.

  5. What constitutes an attack... on US-DOD confirms "cyber-attacks" · · Score: 1

    DEFCON 3 my ass....DEFCON refers to the defense posture of all US forces. Raising the DEFCON over an attack on a non-classified network is bullshit - would never happen.

    Plus this goob is violating the rule of thumb of discussing his work publicly. Moron.
