A Computer Lab with No Windows, Part I |
|
Thursday, February 19 2004 @ 06:14 PM CST Contributed by: Linegod
From Linux Journal:
Sisler High school is the largest high school in Manitoba, with approximately 1,600 students and 120 staff members on campus. The school offers many computer courses at different levels, ranging from computer programming and office skills to vocational subjects, such as trouble-shooting personal computers, networking and advanced operating systems. In 2002, due to a letter from CAAST (Canadian Alliance Against Software Theft), the school spent more than $50,000 to make sure we had all the necessary licenses for our software.
I have been using and teaching Linux on both the high school and university levels since the mid 1990s. I have set up a variety of Linux servers for a variety of purposes: Web server, shell accounts, Java/C++ programming, routers, as well as HA (high availability) clusters and Beowulf clusters.

UT2004 Demo for AMD64 Available |
|
Tuesday, February 17 2004 @ 11:03 PM CST Contributed by: Linegod
From LinuxGames:
That tirelessly coding fairy godmother of the Linux gaming community, Ryan "icculus" Gordon, has posted news that a 64-bit native version of the UT2004 demo (see our previous post) for AMD's AMD64 line of processors is now available. This package includes both the client and the dedciated server. Ryan cautions people to consider several factors when evaluating the AMD64 build. The compilers/drivers on this architecture aren't nearly as mature as you might be used to on a 32-bit system, so don't be too critical about performance just yet. If you don't have an Opteron, Athlon64, or Athlon FX processor then this build is useless to you. If you don't have a 64-bit operating system, then this build is useless to you. And, finally, there are reports of system lockups and reboots when running this binary: you have been warned. In short, you probably shouldn't be running this on your company's mission-critical webserver. Read the full thing here

The answers to Cooker contributors questions ! |
|
Wednesday, February 11 2004 @ 02:40 PM CST Contributed by: Linegod
Posted to the Cooker Mailing List by Helge Hielscher (edited for view and spelling errors):
Here is a summarized list of questions and suggestions from our Volunteers, Contributors and Members and the answers of MandrakeSoft.Please feel free to add your comments, suggestions and feelings. Thanks. A. Relation with contributors 1) Some contributors seem frustrated by the lack of communication with Mandrakesoft reps. What is the position from Mandrakesoft for contributors? Is their work considered only as an addon ? It's like a win-win relation: MandrakeSoft higly respects contributors' work and considers it very important for all Mandrake products. On theother hand, contributors have the opportunity to contribute to a dynamic Open Source project and of course benefit in return. In short: do you wanta better quality product? Test it more and report possible solutions... Want a new feature? submit it, convince us about the opportunity to builtit and integrate it. As a result, Mandrake Linux answers contributers needs, and the product improves, for the benefit of all. That's the spiritof Open Source Software.
