  1. Re:Ugh bring back 2.7 please on Debating the Linux Process Scheduler · · Score: 5, Informative

    There was the 2.4 schuduler, the old O(1) 2.6 scheduler and now the new 2.6 CFS scheduler...
    This doenst seem to me to be ripped every 6 months, unless the 2.6 tree is just about 6 months older...

  2. Re:Um on Will GPLv3 Drive Users from Linux to FreeBSD? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    And whats the point to move to BSD if there are a GPLv2 Version?

  3. Re:Oh boy, it never ends... on Microsoft Axes 'Get The Facts' · · Score: 0

    And if you actually look at the pricing page at Red Hat site you will see that:

    "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Platform (Unlimited sockets)
    Standard Subscription 1 year 12x5 phone support, 1 year web, unlimited incidents $1,499
    Premium Subscription 1 year 24x7 phone support, 1 year web, unlimited incidents $2,499"

    Where is the "if you want 24/7 support, you'll pay more."

    And more.
    http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL -5-manual/Cluster_Suite_Overview/index.html

    "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Advanced costs $2,499 per server per year without add-on features, like an application server and clustering."
    So how the fucking RH doesnt have clustering support, HA support...

  4. Linux Kernel Derived Work on Dvorak on How Microsoft Can Kill Linux · · Score: 0

    Well, I don't know if Microsoft (or anyone) could write a Driver interface for Linux, without being considerd a Linux Kernel derived work, since this will probably need some EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL functions, and if not, the kernel developers will just export some needed symbols as GPL only.

  5. Re:What does MandrakeSoft gain? on Mandrakesoft Acquires Conectiva · · Score: 0

    I know that, but really don't like to translate names. You don't translate "Marcelo" to "Marcel" or anithing like that, so why translate countries names?

    "I wouldn't trust a pile of shit from .br"

    Have you heard about Tosatti maintaining the 2.4 kernel, or about the BraSilian goverment that have plans to switch to open source, and producing a sheep popular PC with Linux, or about ACME (another kernel hacker, with a lot of contributions to the kernel), or about the cool FISL (International Free Software Forum) at Porto Alegre.

    Yes there are good stuff comming from BraSil (with S, not Z).

    And just another thing, We don't think that we are better than anyone.

  7. Re:Best of the 'inappropiate comments' on Why MS is Not Opening More Source Code · · Score: 0

    My favorite one from drivers/video/atafb.c from the Linux Kernel

    /* no default driver included */
    /* Nobody will ever see this message :-) */
    panic("Cannot initialize video hardware");

  8. Destroy the original on All Emulation is Illegal · · Score: 0

    Well, buy a game, create a copy then destroy de original, or just scratch the cd to make it unusable...

    Finally you are using a legal copy...

  9. Blue Screen of Death on Xbox 2 for $400? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Hey, talking about Xbox2, anyone knows where I can get some screenshot or video of the Xbox2 BSOD in the Bill Gates Presentation at the CES 2005? I really need to see that
