Where Redhat Linux 9.0 created a big problem!
by Roshan 21 Oct '06

21 Oct '06

This isn't a big problem as such for me. But for windows users, moving to GNU/Linux (or GliNUx) possibly could be. My mouse failed working properly, tonight and I was really surprised to see what redhat linux 9.0 was trying to do. Somehow, there was a dependency in starting the console mouse service, which failed, and in turn, disallowed the X to start :( It asked me to attempt starting the X, and I tried a few times, assuming it would start without the mouse. It failed, and I quit. Shut the system, replaced a mouse (yes, I had a spare, won at a computer quiz competition in Ruia College ;) ) and restarted, and everything started working fine. Now, since it was Redhat Linux 9.0, I assume the OS is older and would consider the non-availability a big issue and avoid starting the GUI. However, do _newer_ and _different_ distro's face the same problem? -- http://sankoobaba.blogspot.com __________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

MM admins, Are you receiving any server logs of the mailman of GLUG-BOM mailing list stating that emails are failing delivery at the following email address: d_rosh2001 at yahoo dot co dot in ? Though this should have only been to the admins, I am testing whether the mailman is actually accepting my mail:) -- http://www.gnu.org.in __________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Chart of Novell's Counterclaims and SCO's Reply
by Harsh Busa 19 Oct '06

19 Oct '06

Groklaw has posted a lengthy table that details the legal exchanges between Novell and SCO. "Groklaw's E-man submitted a handy chart of Novell's Amended Counterclaims compared with the SCO's reply, so we can compare paragraph by paragraph and easily see what SCO is denying and what it is admitting. I find these charts so handy, and I hope you do too." http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?story=20061018074146358 -- __________________________ http://www.ebackend.com/blog
