It's hardly your fault not finding some paper on a german only website of a german only expo + conference, even though they claim to be "World's no . 1 Linux Expo and Conference since 1996". Which ironically enough is about the only english phrase to be found on that website.
I know I might just be ranting, but this is not only the problem with the website, but is in fact typically for the event itself as well.
I honestly can't see why any linux conference where 75+% of all talks are in German can claim to be an international conference.
PS: I am a non-native english speaker. I understand German very well, but my idea of an international conference is not that of the LinuxTag organisers...
Maybe you could also consider how difficult it is for a doctor NOT te prescribe antibiotics? Some patients almost force you to do so, otherwise they just go to the doctor next door who will give them what they want...
What is a REGISTRY KEY? The windows registry is nothing more than two files.
Debian's dpkg keeps track of all debian packages available on the server in its status file. Included in this file is local status of these packages (installed, not-installed, to be removed, etc...). Apt being a frontend to dpkg clearly states CmdrTaco's point.
This could perfectly fall under the definition of REGISTRY, IMHO. Just because there might not be (?) automatic system for upgrading an RPM based linux system, doesn't mean it isn't done. Some of us might want to read slashdot more carefully... (remember this?)
woody is the current unstable Debian distro (2.3).
Who says woody will be 2.3? What if the Debian people decide to release potato ( the previous unstable branch, the next to be released) as Debian 3.0? This would make far more sense as potato was the first debian version using kernel 2.2 and the new libc version
It's a good thing (TM) they added this file, I mean how many of you haven't spent hours on finding the best configuration for you Xserver?
IMO, this could be a standard support PC manufacturers can provide... They have the full description of the hardware specs used in their products. It shouldn't take much of their time, but saves us, and especially the newbies *A*LOT*OF*TIME*....
I don't know, but I definately don't like what they're saying. As if every linux user were a 15 year old geek, anarchist, using swear words whenever he hears "NT", "Windows" and so on... I definately don't like it...
And instead of waiting months or years (Cairo -> WinNT5 -> Win2K), we have upgrades that occur in a regular and timely fashion.
Isn't that the problem with most software? They all produce with their deadline in mind... They rather distribute software on time than waiting a few more days to complete their software... Result: every week bugfixes... Correct me if I'm wrong, but I prefer stable software, even though it might be several months old, above *new* software. And in case you really need software that is up-to-date, you can always choose for an unstable, pre-release version (cf. Debian), but then at least you know that it might be unstable...

Do you, on the other hand, have any excuse for failing to capitalise "Nazi", or must our collective wrath descend on you?
That's "descend upon." Clone.
The advantage of having an Itanium2 in a laptop is simple: you then have portable cooker as well as portable computer...
