  1. Hey, does someone knows why CS can't work if + on No Half-Life 2 on Steam? · · Score: 1

    default gateway has been defined? If I reset default gateway setting, CS immediately starts working.:(

    Ya gotta Be kidding?;-)
    Our PC-router on Linux starts up fully with all BGP appropriate routes in place from 3 to 6 minutes (exact number depends on external factors).
    Either something totally screwed in your Zebra config or you just have less bandwidth for Zebra cf. with Cisco if your Zebra router gets up for a half of hour.
    Though I'd note we make use Bird ( http://bird.network.cz/ ), not Zebra/Quagga.

    Hm, as a man lived in Soviet Russia (the USSR), I can't recollect this cliche. Standard cliche was a fat capitalist dressed in black smoking with a big cigar in teeth.:-) Never mind though.

  4. Re:Serial-ATA on More SUSE Linux 9.1 Reviews · · Score: 1

    I guess all major Linux dsitributions are able to cope with this either by direct support in kernel or via a feature to load some custom driver (usually this screen appears after attempt to detect the equipment). I don't sure about SuSE but RH has it. My friend had successfully installed Shrek (rh9) on some Intel 7501 server equipped with SATA drives only in native mode. The driver was taken from Intel site IIRC.

    Dunno how'bout Chinese, but there were many my pals migrated to USA/Canada from Russia and some have worked, are working or are gonna working for those companies like Cisco, M$ and IBM. I guess somebody would have not so high moral princeples to make easy money.

    BTW, JFYI: To be approved for using in restricted or classified govt. offices and some other sites (like nuclear facilities) here, in Russia, software must be taken for the source code audit by the State Technical Comission. NT4SP3 (dunno build), NW 4, Win 2003 and some flavour of Linux had been approved.

    Yes, I know. But compare HCl for Canon and Olympus cameras. All current Olympus cameras just work as USB mass storage devices. Just mount them and voi la! Current Canon cameras require weird work around thru gphoto. The same fits to Canon LBP printers.

    I've got Canon D646 scaner "by accident" with no PSU and with very big rebate.
    I had email exchange with its support. Nice people but no avail for me. Canon as trademark makes me unhappy (neither "native" drivers nor willing to somehow support zealots) so I choose Xerox as printer brand (they even have native Linux drivers!) and Olympus as camera brand ('cos their cameras are operating in usb-storage mode, native for Linux). Though I was initially ready to deal somehow with the driver issue (including NDA and time to master SANE's C-code) and had plans for Canon's printers and cameras. No way for Canon now.;-(

    I've got polite deny to my plea to Canon support to give me an appropriate docs sufficient to make the driver by myself.
