Personally, I find Java more compelling. C# may be a nicer language, but there is no control over which direction the class libraries will take. The Java Community Process is at least a somewhat open alternative. Yes, but seeing as how GNOME is mainly a FSF/GNU project (the GNU Network Object Model Environment), I would think that the developers would be hesitant about using Mono/.NET or Java because both of those languages are not Free (read: Freedom).
needs some color to spice it up -- even on the default theme
Not to be rude to the GNOME or GTK+ developers, but why are you using the default theme? Evolution is very well integrated with GNOME and your GTK+ 2.x settings. Use a much better theme and Evolution will look much better.
SIGGRAPH 2004, LOS ANGELES (August 10, 2004)--The latest version of the OpenGL® specification, incorporating support for the OpenGL Shading Language application programming interfaces (API), was announced today by Silicon Graphics and the OpenGL Architecture Review Board (ARB) at the SIGGRAPH 2004 industry tradeshow. One of the most important and enduring standards in the computer industry, OpenGL® 2.0 presents a revolution in graphics by providing high-level access to the programmable features of modern graphics processors and is an important step in creating photo-realistic, real-time 3D graphics.
Microsoft always makes it hard to keep backward-compatibility. Just look at how the office documents are stored. It's how they get there money: by forcign upgrades of their software. the OpenGL API/specification, however is-correct me if I'm wrong, please-not owned by a single monopolistic company, and it evolves as a whole, not simply by changing the API every version. (Granted, X 9 did have DX 8.0/8.1 backward-compatibility, iirc.)
But seriously! I had submitted this story to/. almost A MONTH AGO and it got rejected. C'mon, lamebrains! stay with the frickin' times, please!....

Let's just hope to God/Allah/ that's nt Win ME.... *shudders*...
And I'm really freakin sick of you Linux junkies telling me that Linux is so easy that anyone can use it.
It isn't easy, and not everyone can use it. Granted, distros like SuSE and Mandrake make things very usable and a whole lot more user-friendly, but for the majority of it, GNU/Linux is an OS made by geeks and power-users for geeks and power-users...

I used to get my RH 9 gnome rpms from Ximian, but they seem to have stopped updating for 9. Alas.
FWIW, You might be able to continue getting them as backports from The Fedora Legacy Project
Doom had lots of colours.
So 256 is still conidered 'a lot'? Wow you must be old! =P

You'd probably want to use /dev/urandom instead of /dev/zero, so that the bytes are set to random values and the tarball appears more valid:
cp cedega-4.01.tgz cedega-4.01-backup.tgz &&
dd bs=1 seek=16 count=19 if=/dev/urandom of=cedega-4.01.tgz &&
dd if=yay2.txtcedega-4.01-backupt.tgz of=cedega-4.01.tgz seek=36 bs=1
Not necessarily. Just do
/usr/portage/
/usr/portage/distfiles. Then, so long as you don't remove it, the md5sum will match. Hope this helps!
# cd
# ebuild app-emulation/cedega/cedega-4.0.1.ebuild digest
and it will ask you to place the tarball in
weee!!!
