  1. Best "X Term" for Windows on Windows-On-Linux Emulator Shootout · · Score: 1

    Putty is the best program I know of to connect to a remote computer using ssh/telnet from Windows. Its free too!

    Check it out here: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

  2. Re:clear trademark infringement... on Slashback: Mono, Names, Locking Up · · Score: 1
    I'm sorry, I know this is Anti-Open-Source (TM), but I think that GAIM is clearly trademark infringement. Adding one letter does not mean you're safe, any more than a clone of Windows named GWindows would be reasonable.

    There is a little thing called XWindows.

  3. Linux laptop on Installing Linux On The New Apple iBook · · Score: 1

    How can this be the "best" Linux if sound does not work out of the box?

  4. Re:Yes, well that's news isn't it. on Microsoft "Bans" Use Of GPL Code · · Score: 1

    I need to stop reading /.

  5. Other Great Articles and Sites. on Building the Quiet PC · · Score: 1
    Here is a great place to buy quiet components: www.quietpc.com

    A very long and informative site on quiet PC's: home.swipnet.se/tr/silence.html

    I have been trying to make my computer silent for about two years now. It is still not quiet enought to keep on at night in my bedroom. I'll keep trying though.

  6. Tux Racer on Linux On Windows - The Thin End Of The Wedge? · · Score: 1

    There is a Windows port of Tux Racer, why would I need to run the linux binary on Windows?

  7. Re:How about a low price desktop next... on New Machines From Sun · · Score: 1

    You do not have to run Solaris on it... :-)

  8. Very true! on Linux Distributions Are Too Big · · Score: 1

    I highly agree. This is why I have been looking into using *BSD lately, my hard drive is only so big. I always thought that one reason for using Linux was that it took up less disk space than Windows. Although this it is true that Linux will take up less space for the same functionality as Windows, all the distros pack in way too many programs in the default install. I try selecting only the programs I want but it still seams to take up too much of my disk.

  9. Md5 Check Sums on KDE 2.0 Final Released · · Score: 2

    Does anyone have the MD5 check sums for the kde 2.0 rpm's? I can't find them anywhere.

  10. Suse 7.0 on Red Hat Linux 7 Infested With Bugs · · Score: 1

    With all this talk about Red Hat 7.0, what do people think about Suse 7.0?
