Try NDISwrapper, it works just fine...Granted, if you are a purest, this is non-open software technically, so if you don't mind loading it using the afore mentioned software, it will work like a champ.
It has been a joke for a long time!!! I worked for McAfee in about 1998, and they were a joke that far back as well. Hopefully one day, an antivirus that actually does not depend on viruses being reported or found in the wild will come along, and kill off the crappy stuff we have now-a-days.
It is not so much the lowlings who tape their password on their monitors you need to worry about, it is the UNIX, or Windows admin who posts the root or admin password on theirs. I would not have an admin who would do this, so I have very little to worry about. Not to mention, when someone gives a 2 week notice in IT, we just wave it, and have them escorted out of the building ASAP.
General users have very little access to very sensitive information, with a few exceptions. If someone is high enough up, or does a sensitive enough job, they are watched like a hawk, and generally, we use 2 person integrity. Trust them just enough, but let them know you are watching. That has always been my moto.
HAHA!! SuSE Dead? Dang, the company I work for, who just switched about 150 desktops to it is REALLY gonna be bummed about that...seeing as we have a support contract from Novell. Does anyone on this site ever base any of their comments on fact, or just conjecture?
If you are going to run windows, buy it, if not, go get an OS that is free, as in freedom and beer. Then you do not have to worry about this kinda shit. There are hundreds of Linux distros out there for free, format, install (it only takes about 25-30 mins now a days) and try them out. Repeat as necessary to find the one you want to use.
Sorry about the subject...I just always wanted to say that:o)
I started life as a Registered Nurse, USNavy paid for it, then I went to Mecdical School...THAT DOCTOR STUFF SUCKS!! Sooo...Flash forward 20 years, now I am a manager of Information Security at a small but large financial institution. I have NO degree whatsoever in IT, don't plan on getting one either. I learned most things on my own, but have taken lots of training classes on the way, such as Cisco, MS, Linux, UNIX, etc. I have lots of certs, including MCSE, CNE, CISSP, etc. Truthfully, in IT that is what matters. Good luck to you, if you really want to be an IT guy, you can do it, IF you have the apptitude.
Like the actual artists will see one fucking penny of it!! RIAA will claim that legal costs have eaten it all up, and that they sued on behalf of the artist, so there is no money left, but from now on, the artist will see more money...anyone besides me see a terrible ass raping here?!?!?
Yeah...and as far as I know, Cisco has neither. I can go buy a 3.4ghz P4 processor, and beat their dedicated network processors, as well as their system processors...why not give it a shot? I have used several "other" router OSes and have seen the likes of Mikrotik, Zebra, etc beat Cisco in the mid-range market.
hehehehe....You said mushware...heheheh.... Okay, but really...I use Linux, and have no problem using a driver that works...I NEED them in order to be able to play my game.
NVidia is no better...I am running SUSE 10.1 and have to recompile my friggin' kernel everytime there is an update...I really hate it when that happens!
I kinda think this quote from their website says it all "SGI InfiniteStorage NAS - A Well Kept Secret" Who in their right mind would brag about being a well kept secret?!? I really loved their logo, their workstations, after all, they were on that show with Roy Schieder, you know, the one where he was a sub captain....
Okay, Sci-Fi Geeks...made you think of it:o)
Sun Comments...
I work for a almost completely SUN shop, and I gotta tell you, there is not an Intel/Linux box out there, that is as cost effective, based on the hardware/OS you get. Of course, that is my opinion, and I am sticking to it.
I hate it when this kinda shit happens....anyone remember RAV antivirus? That was some excellent Linux mail server antivirus, now, you can NOT even buy it. Buy, screw, kill...kinda sounds like jack the ripper, eh?
I am looking forward to the day when the business requires us IT folks to be straight up pimps! I personally love wearing a large purple hat with a 3 foot long feather, and the platform shoes....oooooohhhh!!! How about they leave IT people alone, quit trying to remake us into some fucking image they think should be, and let us do our fucking jobs!!! I wonder what Jesus REALLY looked like...and I wonder how many years it took for the powers to be to make him into the tall, bearded, gentle hanson man you see in pictures...

T40, T41 and T42 all work just dandy with SuSE, as well as Debian based OS's

JEEZUS!!! When did email become so fucking important as to go through this kind of self torture?!?!? Just read it, and delete it!!

I hate the French EVEN MORE now!!! Why can't we get this in the good ole' USA?
We used shittyworks http://www.shit.com/ It really blew, and if you logged in just right, it could suck an blow at the same time. Come on folks...
On linux responding better when upgrading MB, or CPU...No, Not really. I have tried, and it pukes just as readily.
And, I could have been born with horns, and pigs flying out of my ass, but there are not pictures to prove it, so I am calling BULLSHIT!

I completely understand...I was trying to be funny...I have failed, please hand me the sword! :o)
Wal-Mart uses Amazon web services for their ecommerce...as does Target and Sears...So, they tend to look alike.
