I had to get creative. Fedora 8 would hang on my laptop at install time and so I could not get it installed. so I followed the steps below and it worked like a champ. I also did this on another upgrade like core 3 to core 4 or something and it worked fine. It is nice to have this info in a pinch lik...

That may be good for virtualization on workstation level, but is it usable, feasible and scalable for a really large enterprise server environment? I seriously doubt it. Also, you mention that Xen is hard to set up, have you tried using either Red Hat or Novell's management tools made specifically ...

this is where Pat will spend his next 5 bucks.

here is a great analysis of just one little part of microsoft's so-called 6000 page ECMA oooxml standard and their possible adoption by ISO. just from this little fact the standard should be thrown out with the trash. again they are making a joke of the industry by submitting a mathematical inaccura...

here is a link to the problem in idea storm - let them know.

http://www.devside.net/blog/dell-ubuntu-lies Having priced similar Dell Ubuntu and Vista systems in the past, at a real difference of a whooping 10 dollars, I was curious to check in again and see if Dell has implemented anything the user-base of IdeaStorm have asked for. One particular thread caug...

"Still, Dell is successfully targeting a key market niche: Frustrated users who want a viable, fast, secure alternative to Windows. And Ubuntu -- like Apple's (AAPL) Mac OS -- is a welcome option worth considering." looks like I just saw that little light bulb go on in his/her head. hope the snowbal...

has anybody tried to download any distros iso's lately. I have been trying to get fedora 7 and centos 5 dvd's and bittorrent refuses to connect to anything and when I actually ftp the dvd iso and run md5sum or sha1sum on them they never match up. I have trouble before but never like this - no matter...

yes qemu is excellent too - forgot to mention that one - now I did use windows on qemu 3 to 4 years back - it was windows 2000 and windows 95/98 to run some old educational games for my daughter. they were pre-school and kindergarten games so they weren't needing really high power. but qemu was pret...

not sure what you are going to be using it for but I am currently running web sites on centos5 and xen with vm of centos 5 and it is really stable and pretty slick. it was the same xen setup that was on fedora core 6. running web servers I think this is the way to go also playing with ubuntu and vmw...

have you guys ever tried to get Eben on the show?

I think that would be interesting - although I doubt he may have the time but you could at lesast ask and all he could say is no.

Microsoft is obviously lying. I'm a FOSS user and I have not infringed on any software patents... EVER! In fact, in Canada, you cannot patent software. So, Brad and his boss Bill Gates can royally f*ck right off, as far as I'm concerned! :P well said! we all can't forget the emoticons patent - alon...

http://www.crn.com/software/199500294 good article from Szulik from Redhat. nice to see a CEO these days not be from marketing. two quotes I think are great. In a press conference at the Red Hat Summit in San Diego, Red Hat CEO Matt Szulik said customers have been asking for better interoperability ...

hope you are caught up on your sleep and you saved some money.
