So far, I am really enjoying it -- other then that no one else has MMS and the J2ME isnt really supported yet. (Infact, a lot of the advertised features of this phone are not supported yet, including the data cable listed on the box!) So far the color screen has been nothing more then an oh neat. Same thing with the polyphonic ring tones (other that finally when somoene is discovering ring tones I can just shut them up). It may be nicer when more of my friends have TMobile and MMS and the camera accessories.
My bitch with all these new features is they all take up bandwidth, and at least with my provider, they arent real clear on that. For example, I have 300 messages per month for $2.99 plus one meg of download. This is all fine and dandy except they didnt tell me that sending an MMS costs bandwidth (as aposed to just a message count).
Ive been using Freeswan for the last few months (1.98b) + quite a few patches (found them at www.freeswan.ca ) to get the results I need. How does this factor in to this equation? Is this a stupid-simple implementation that will also need lots of patches to be able to do what I need it to do (ie x509 certs, NAT transversal, DHCP over VPN) ?
www.tmobile.com - check their product pages (couldnt seem to find a working direct link).
They offer a Pocket PC based cell phone that I have been looking into (bestbuy has a fake display model behind the counter, but thats it). Is this what Microsoft is suposed to be anouncing tomorrow, or is this different?
Id hate to leave palm for a pocket pc phone, but im sick of having a phone that feels lacking and a pda. I love my Palm tho, but Id like to do a bit more some times:
I guess I have hope that I could put linux on the phone, but the phone would still have to work!
You have to wait years and years for the lines to be redone tho. My point is in many state districts the votes go something like this:
120 for A 110 for B
If you were to put 300 people in a district that all voted for their canidate and their canidate did even a decent job of getting some votes, odds are he would win.
ACtually, if you take a few hundred of these people and spread them out through kansas, I gaurantee you a majority in the kansas state legislature. Its pretty simple.
Im planning on moving to rural kansas when I run for state legislature
Well, I fully support this move to Kansas. Come one come all. Infact, in support, I will live in Wichita, Kansas. Really, there is a lot of greatness to be found in Kansas -- its a sleeper state. There is a lot of room here for whatever you want. The temperatures go from tropical to artic all in a week! Its a great place to live.
One thing slashdot has covered before and I am starting to see a lot of in movies is digital editing. For example, I was watching Tin Cup on TBS yesterday. Towards the end of the movie, at the majors, on the last hole, there is a big banner for CBS sports. You *can't* miss it. It is big black letters on a yellow banner. Well, TBS edited it out. All it is now is a big yellow hole. In a few shots where you only see a corner of it, you still see the text, but in the wide shots - NOTHING. How long until that says "Watch Atlanta Braves Baseball" ??
Then I was watching a hockey game and I noticed how all the adds on the walls were changing. I thought that was kinda strange since Ive only seen them painted on. But then I saw the adds ON the ice change. Turns out none of the in stadium adds are broadcast, just ones from the networks. What the HELL is that? I would be pissed if I bought that advertisement spot!
Once again we have an article that forgets the history of bug tracking and CERT. There was a time where everyone thought it would be best to alert the company first and let them fix a patch. Then we saw time and time again a company sitting on a problem and not wanting to issue a fix until the next big release they could sell.
Then, the idea was to make a bug known publically so that the company couldnt hide. Unfortunatly, the company then denied that such an attack was possible. This lead to the requirement of posting source or an example program the exploited the program - which before was just sent to the company - into the wild.
This brings us to where we are now: Everyone (sysadmins, crackers, hackers, the media, and the company) knows about the problem and how it works at the same time. This means the company HAS to patch their software. This also gives your sys admin a better chance since he can know about an exploit and immediately begin watching it or take the effected program away until a patch is issued.
The down side of course is smbdie being posted on/. and everyone in the university using it to crash computers campus wide. However, these idiots, the idiot sys admins and the idiots that made smbdie possible all had equal amount of time to do what they needed to do.
Switching buttons makes it unintuitive, and I still run into problems
As for pausing, I had the setting at 500ms, but yet this was not forgiving enough. Any less it would seam, and if I stopped and thought, then the gesture was denied
I just have to say my preference is NO on mouse gestures. I guess thats whats good about moz, is that you can have them and use them and I can say fuck that
Well, I upgraded from 7.3 to 8.0 using the upgrade in the installer, first time I ever did this.
It was kinda weird since I didnt get to pick and choose anything, since I did already in 7.3 I guess. Anyhoo, I was really suprised to see apache 2.0. I havent seen this mentioned anywhere and it was a but to re-do my httpd.conf file, including some weird issues with gallery and php nuke.
I have always used gnome and I like what rh has done and I doubt ill be downloading ximian any time soon, except maybe for redcarpet which I dig a lot more then up2date. I switched over to KDE to see what it looks like here (I thought kde 3.0 look pretty yet cluttered for my tastes by default). Unfortunatly, I cant get gnome to come back up in desktop switcher : I say use gnome, it says restart X session, I restart vnc, and im back in KDE. This, I dont like.
I like the ~./fonts. I carried over my win32 fonts (tahoma, comic sans ms) and loaded them up. The fonts do look pretty. I dunno how other distros are comming on this, but I think the ~./fonts thing is really handy, just needs to be noted that it can be done. It would be nice is if ALL APPS interacted with this. I opened up Open Office and it didnt have these fonts for me:
Oh, the whole not labeling cds 4-5 kinda pissed me off. Im glad to see source RPMS, but since I cant specify to install with those (at least, I dont see how) and I really have no use for them, I dont wanna download and burn.
As for mirrors, I got on the indiana ftp and pulled in @ 2mbit or so. Not bad at all. I see where I can create a kickstart and do a network ftp or http install, I just wish I woulda known how to do this before. This should be a well documented feature on how to just have an ftp w/ the rpms and be able to install remotely. Oh well, :
I am comming towards the end of my moz experience (check my other posts on that) and one of the first things I did was load up optimoz and added mouse gestures since it was so highly raved about.
My experience was ugh to bad. The first big problem I had was copying text from webpages. For some reason, moz always thought I was gesturing. Well, no. Then, outside of that accidental gesture, I found myself making them a lot more, including the close gesture. Then, when I really wanted to make one, it never worked right:
For back and forward, I have my intelimouse explorer. For scrolling I have a wheel, but the no autoscroll bug in Moz is kinda anoying. If mouse anything needs to be added, that is it. Anything else I can do w/ quick menus, like opening a new tab. Years of FPS mean I can quickly move my mouse and click w/ deadly acuracy.
I have been using VNC long before I started using linux. As soon as I started the Linux environment, I used VNC for remote access.
Question: Is there a way to use VNC (or other) to access the main X session (I guess tty0 in rh 7.3) and share it similar to how it is shared in windows?
While I speak of remote access, maybe someone can tell me why when I am @ an ssh shell, my path etc is never set.
Everyone has mentioned tightvnc, so I dont think thats needed but I will say that I found it really interesting when Farmers Insurance rolled out all the Dells to agents across the country, VNC was installed and running on every box.
I have always just used putty as a telnet replacement basically. I never knew I could do all this!
I recently needed people to have remote access to an as400 (which you connect through on the lan via telnet) and looking at this looks like instead of doing a complex IPSec tunnel, I woulda been fine with just this
Oh well, IPsec gives me some flexability for stuffs in the future
Thanks! Ill give it a try tomorrow, sleep time now
The only thing Ive ever done tunneling with is IPSec (Freeswan in Linux, SSH Sent in Windows) and then can quickly and easily access any VNC box in the network
I leave my VNC port open and change the password periodically
Since there were so many replies to my post, many VERY helpful and some with the same-ol same-ol, I figure Ill just go over my initial points with notes from what others have said. I think someone asked what version, and I have tried 1.1 and am now using 1.2a.
1. Knowing the keyboard shortcuts is going to help a lot. Honestly, when I right click on a tab, it should say "Close Tab (Ctrl-W)". Also, every other windows program uses ctrl tab to cycle through sub-windows, but Im glad to hear this is comming at least for the windows build. I am also glad to hear the auto refresh feature is incoming. As for all those that asked, yes this can all be done now with a program called MyIE, or so Ive been told. Most people say over time they have come to love tabbed browsing, so I shall give it more time.
2. Autoscroll bug. In every other windows program, I can click the middle mouse button and a circle appears, and I can drag my mouse up and down to scroll VERY quickly. When I am doing mouse only navigation (just reading through sites), this is a VERY handy feature. It was first introduced a long time ago with the first logitech ps2 3 button mice, and I have grown very acustomed to it. The wheel is nice, but a click and drag of the mouse and I can be at the bottom of a page. Someone gave me the link to bugzilla on this and it has been around for some time and the person the bug was assigned to seems to show no sign of getting on the ball. (I would link to it but I can not find the URL in my history and I am not at all familiar with bugzilla.) The age and amount of replies this bug received made me wonder how well other requests, bugs, etc are handled.
3. Quite frankly I shouldnt have to learn some language just to quickly place my bars in different orders. I am glad to hear that they will soon be mobile and will be easily aranged. I will look at some of the themes that have been mentioned, maybe one will look right. Also, the google bar (as some pointed out) is not just about searching, and I have google set to search from my address bar even in IE. The google bar for moz is very cool and I think the project is great, but I try to keep as much room for the website as possible and it fits very tightly in IE.
4. Rendering. This is probably where I got my -1 troll from:6 ??), does not mean it can not expand.
I love everything open source, but yet I am the slashdot's troll's cliche since I use windows as my main OS, albeit a pirated version of XP. So, I figured I should at least switch to Moz. I made the commitment to try moz as my only browser for two weeks and to only use IE if I needed it.
So far, Ive been very disapointed
First, I dont know what all this hubub about tabbed browsing and mouse gestures has been. W/o a quick way to cycle through my tabs, w/o being to have a tab be automagically reloaded, w/o a keyboard shortcut to close the tab, I dont see why opening multiple windows and using the WinXP group programs feature isn't any better.
Second, the auto-scroll Moz bug has been around forever. Every time Ive been on another computer and browsed in IE, I realiz how often I use that feature. It drives me crazy not having it in Moz.
Third, maybe I can w/ a theme, but I can not quickly move and re-arrange my bars like I can in IE. Luckily there is a google bar (kinda) for moz now, but since it has to sit stacked w/ the other bars and I can not combine, I don't use it.
Fourth is rendering. I know this is due to sites doing best viewed in IE, but when I need to read a bug report on microsoft.com, or a story is only at CNN.com, I need to be able to read it. Would it be so wrong to add in what is needed so IE pages render correctly? On top of that its very anoying when I go to some sites to be told I have to have such and such browser. Again, its the fault of the webmaster, but it screws me.
Numero cinco. Mime types. It is really anoying to click on links like.rar,.wmv, etc. and just have the file not downloaded, but opened in a new window or tab. I see where I can add such mime types, but this should be done already.
6. Form and password management. If more then one person used my computer, ever, I would think the password manager in Mozilla is great. However, I am the only user and its really anoying having to enter a password every time to save the time of entering a password. I also notice that some forms (ie the google search) do not auto fill, or show me what I have entered there in the past, even though I have that option turned on.
7. Mouse gestures were a joke. Every time I wanted to highlight something, and then copy it, the gestures decided I wanted to close Moz. I could have saved this with a modified key, but then what is the point of the gesture if I have to hit my keyboard?
8. Until I hunted it down, Moz would not let me use anything other then composer for mailto: links. This I was able to fix, but it was not cool.
9. This one seems to make no sense what-so-ever but I think is my last main complaint about Moz. Last night I wanted to download a patch from fileshack. So, I started the download in Moz and noticed I was only getting 50KB/s. Normally, I get somewhere around 300. So, I fired up explorer.exe, hit fileshack, and started another download at the same time, and downloaded it very quickly at a full 300KB/s. I tried this with different sites and different downloads (inc http and ftp), and each time Moz was comming up as one slow download.
10. One last thing that relates to this article is speed. After I have moz open and have gone through a few tabs and few windows, I check mem usage and Moz is using over 40megs and is running 20-30% cpu usage. IE never did that.
So, I dont think this is the FINAL gripe about Moz, at least not from me. Ill finish out my two weeks, but I can't wait to get back to IE. I am just as anxious to try Moz again after the next big release.
PS - A cookie import would have been a good feature too.
I know I had never used some of the sites that I was reading from just a minute ago until I stumbled upon news.google.com . So, I figure in the end a lot of sites are only going to garner new hits?
How is this different then when Die Hard is on NBC and they edit the hell out of that? Everyone seems to be happy when that happens, so why can a private company not do it?
