You are thinking of phase, you anonymous monkey. The reason IS that bass is omni directional plus i beleive it is around 40-50 Hz. that the human ear stops actually "hearing" sounds. You "hear" bass sounds more by feeling them than you do by hearing the tones.
odd i also have the 200M pciE card in my compaq laptop. the "radeon" driver works with everything except direct render. and it runs at 1280x800 my native screen resolution. Maybe it is just how Suse has everything compiled, i had horrible times trying to get X to work with gentoo. Suse seems to me to have the laptop market pretty well nailed.
as to your problem with X crashing, i had the same problem on my desktop. If i remember correctly it is part of your kernel config that is the culprit... something about ati_virtual_console or some such. If i remember it right i had to NOT compile that option at all. hope it helps.
errrr i still have 2 win95 boxes and one win3.11 box running.... di i have issues also? win 98 would run dog slow ( well worse than win95) on those PC's... so would any modern linux GUI distro. why should i get rid of working PC's, when it would cost me to chuck them. plus basicly they are relics look at the amiga crowd, what use is that machine anymore? Nostalgia. remembering the good ol' days...
more reasonable and responsible citizen might suggest that if a law is believed to be unjust, they have a duty to try and get it overturned through legal and ethical means first. If that doesn't work, then I think you have a tea party:)

Cover bands aren't all bad. Yeah SOME are, but just like any software you may find, there are probably 3-4 good ones for every bad one. If anything this would stiffle innovation, do you really think that ANY of the artists that became famous just up and started writing new stuff? Nope they ALL started by playing the music THEY grew up listening to. I don't know anyone who just picked up a guitar and started writing original music, it is impossible. You must first learn chording etc. from actual songs to "hear" how to mesh everything together.
well at least you said ONE of our leading idiots... THE leading idiot would get mad at you and fling poo everywhere if you mistook stevens as the leading idiot.
( P.S. yes, i am talking about the monkey that is the president.)
Hmmm, Suse is not only good for thinkpads. My Compaq v5101US is also supported quite nicly "out of the box". The only driver issue i had was with the broadcom wireless card, and that was a simple issue to install the windows drivers through ndiswrapper. The only other thing i could complain about would be no 3D accell from my PCIe radeon card, and that is not a distro specific fault.
I have tried other distros on the same laptop, RH was ok, but didn't have network manager implemented with KDE, ubuntu had some odd IRQ issues and wouldn't use my wireless card... it recognised it and knew it was there but could not access it for some reason. Suse has alway "just worked" (or at least worked the best) for my laptops. Not to mention you have "apt-4-suse" an apt4rpm tool so you can use apt-get in suse to upgrade/ install packages.
I have heard that there is now broadcom support directly in the newer kernel sources now, i hope that my card is supported. Alas i am to lazy to search for it fr now, maybe if ndiswrapper stops working i will look into it.
> Why don't antivirus vendors focus on providing workarounds for the actual Windows security flaws instead?
Because viruses aren't using any security flaws.
yes actually they are.... the biggest security flaw is often the user.
why should i pay HP/Compaq for preloading my laptop with linux when i can just throw in suse 10.1 and everything but the broadcom wireless card works? suspend to ram/disk works ( had to set the suspend to ram config to force, but the acpi config DOES work just fine) HP/Compaq would probably just charge the same as a windows only laptop anyways... why would i pay for them to install linux? now i might consider donating a few bucks if they could provide a wireless driver that actually makes my wireless button light up, and/or the auto volume keys work. unfortunately neither X nor the kernel recognises the key presses.
metal doesn't break unless you hit it hard? damn, why didn;t anyone tell that to my prybar? for your information, metal CAN break very easy. example aluminum work hardens, any flexing of the metal causes it to crystalize and it actually gets so hard that it can not bend anymore and it just cracks. steel is almost the same, except it takes heat/carbon content to crystalize the metal, and what is gas... hot burning hydro-CARBONS. feel free to argue with me, i work with steels aluminum and engines for a living. and also running an engine without oil WILL break it, try it and take it apart down to the piston sleeves you will see a lot of scoring and many times even cuts right through the sleeve to the cast block of your engine. not to mention the heat from the friction ( wich the oil helps cool) will warp your engine block causeing your block to warp and gaskets to not fit right anymore.
you did not notice any difference in your bike because it is a low compression engine, try running a low octane fuel through a turbocharged engine once, the fuel will actually explode on the compression stroke before the piston is fully extended on the crank. using a higher octane fuel increases the ignition point of the fuel so that the heat generated by the compression of the air-fuel mix will not ignite it. on your bike i think the compression ratio is probably about 9:1 / 10:1 on a super/turbo charged engine the compression can actually reach as high as 20:1 or higher.
the whole point is RF IS being regulated. they are saying that the frequency you are broadcasting on MUST have encryption. or in other words YOU CANNOT BROADCAST WITHOUT ENCRYPTION. damn AC's don't think anymore

actually i used gimp before i used photoshop. like i said this is the only thing i dislike about gimp. it is not a deal killer, i still use the gimp, i just prefer the way photoshop is laid out. same as some people are happy to use their browser ina smaller winow, i can't stand it that way...it has to be minimised or maximised. i do like the gimp because it is open source, i just wish that someone would code up an alternitive interface for it ( kinda like totem, xine-ui, and kaffeine all use the exact same backend but look totally different for different peoples preferances). and don't tell me to code it myself, i am a networking student by night and a heavy indudstrial welder/fabricator by day.... i couldn't code more than a simple shell script to save my life. thats why i have to wait for someone with the coding skills to change things around a bit. different skill for different geeks and all.

i use gimp at home, an old version on a pc not connected to the net, i don't know about anything newer but i HATE the multi window interface. PS ( i used 7.0 in school) has all the windows in one larger window, wich as a personal preferance i like better. is the latest gimp interface like this (or is there a way to make the interface windows all in one window?)

One quick question, what the hell is up with everyone complaining about "bloat"? on my machines the launch times have been simular between FF mozilla and opera. are you poeple still using ~100MB disks or what? maybe you only have 32 megs of ram and no swap space? really, does it take you THAT long to download the extra hundred K or so? i mean look at the mozilla suite, everyone says it is bloated, yet how much disk space does it take up to have a browser with a seperate irc client and emeil client installed? how much more rame will it take up to run all three at the same time instead of all three from one process instance?
no i am not trolling, i really want to know why people complain about "bloat", it makes no sense to me....
