  1. ummm... no, they are not creators of technology... marketers of technology, but not creators, since they can't really program. The only things they've invented are: M$ Bob, M$ Paperclip and BSoD.Also, Xisto doesn't allow or endorse downloading software illegally via BitTorrent networks.xboxrulz
  2. KDE4 was planned to override the WIN32 desktop environment. I don't know if they are still doing it. Yet, there's a chance as it has been posted serveral times.xboxrulz
  3. Moonwitch, I use Kate for my programming/editing, it's just as great as other editors IMO.xboxrulz
  4. that is true, Linux does lack those. Another problem is that it also lacks hardware drivers (scanner, Chinese writing pad and etc.). Also, there's current problems for game developers to use the latest sound system, ALSA instead of the old and crappy OSS driver. This really introduce problems for new Linux users and some battle-harden ones too.xboxrulz
  5. HEY HALOHEADS OUT THERE! HALO 3 HAS JUST BEEN ANNOUNCED!! Source: Bungie's Official Halo 3 Announcement xboxrulz
  6. It's been officially announced! http://halo.bungie.net/ xboxrulz
  7. odd, maybe it's just how it was installed. I don't know. It never happens to me on Linux though...xboxrulz
  8. wow, for 5 years just to crack into a site, not really that amazing.Yet, he did deserve it since it is breaking into property, cyber or not.xboxrulz
  9. I didn't really like Safari because it's just Konqueror's engine with better interface.xboxrulz
  10. for your modem, try checking your modem to see if it's listed at LinModems (google it).If so, they should have a driver for your modem.xboxrulz
  11. lol, that just blows away the argument, I forgot to bring that up.Yet, Linux is already preinstalled, but you require the hard disc to access the full functionality. All games are running on OpenGL and Sony's customized Linux variant.xboxrulz
  12. I can't have solid prove (since I can't get the FPS showing on Windows), but when I ran C&C Renegade, C&C Tiberian Sun and Quake 4, it was considerably faster, as if you can feel the speed difference too.My only explanation to this phenomenon is that the X Server's framebuffer is bigger, therefore it's faster to process all the graphic data.Yet when m^e said about Linux wasn't designed for gaming, true, but remember, Linux was designed as a powerhorse to calculate math and other operations fast! Therefore, if calculations are faster and stable, then Linux can beat a Windows machine (if running natively or in some WINEd games)xboxrulz
  13. Hey all, I own a Samung NV 5000 laptop and the battery could now only last for 30-45 minutes :s. I read from here: Apple Notebook Batteries that it would be best to discharge your battery once a month. Although I don't own a laptop notebook, it should be similar to all Lithium-ion batteries, right? So my question is: how do you discharge a battery? xboxrulz
  14. ummm... in Canada the MacBook Pros are already out. At my school there are a couple of kids with the machines.xboxrulz
  15. truely said, there IS NO such thing as the BEST Linux distribution. Only the user can decide.xboxrulz
  16. For me to install Photoshop 7:just open Photoshop 7 installernextI Acceptnextnext[installs it]close windowlaunch programI have WINE 0.9.12, I've been doing this exact same thing to install Photoshop since last Feb. (2005)xboxrulz
  17. yes 9250 isn't really good, it forced my cousin to go out and fished a 9600. This was just to play C&C Generals.xboxrulz
  18. a very typical predatory tactic right there. I don't understand how Microsoft isn't arrested or shut down for predatory tactic, while other businesses do!xboxrulz
  19. nightfox, FC5 is really bad with laptop integration. My battery dies right after it boots up. It uses too much energy!Anyways, Windows is like a baby. The interface looks cute, but it constantly asks to sleep; then wakes up. When it's too tired, it crashes. It's prone to illnesses (viruses) because it's still very young. It doesn't understand English either. You constantly have to guess what's wrong. (Windows doesn't keep a friggin' log). It constantly needs your maintenance. That's my anology for Windows.Here's what I think the dialog is like.YES (restart) NO (wait for 10 minutes, then bug again) CANCEL (a trick box that does nothing)10 minutes laterYES (restart) NO (restart) CANCEL (a trick box that does nothing)xboxrulz
  20. I don't really like FC at all since Redhat made their kernel slower than SuSE Linux. I don't know why but it happens on my desktop and my laptop.xboxrulz
  21. This question has been ask many many times, yet I will still answer you. I always recommend SuSE Linux because of it's easiness, out-of-the-box usability, great optimization for everyone, etc.There is GUI if you want, just select it during the installation process, it's default anyways.SuSE Linux doesn't cost anything, but you can't ask Novell for technical support unless you're willing to shell out money. That's why http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ was invented.xboxrulz
  22. definitely the best "I hate Micro$oft" sites.I learned more than I ever did about Micro$oft.xboxrulz
  23. since you're running an old Linux distribution, there are only 2 ways to fix it:1) Check if the manufacturer has drivers to download.2) If not, you need to use Fedora Core or RHEL.Hope this helps!xboxrulz
