On Sun, 2008-12-07 at 23:06 -0700, Kenneth Burgener wrote: Assumptions: 1. 4GB Memory. 2. Overhead. 3. Compatibility. 4. Desktop vs Servers. Is my logic sound? Number 1 is a bit off. But just a bit. Number 2 is solid. Number 3 is... mostly irrelevant with CentOS. Number 4 is not specific enough. First, The 4GB limit. Yes, 64-bit allows the OS access to more than 4GB of *physical* memory. However, it *also* allows (64-bit) processes to access more than 4GB of *virtual* memory. This can be invaluable in applications that process a lot of data. Second, compatibility. Upstream's use of multilib allows 32-bit applications to be run on a 64-bit system without much trouble. Plugins, specifically Firefox plugins, have the better part of a solution in the form of nspluginwrapper. Drivers not much can be done about; fortunately there aren't too many of those. Third, desktop versus server. Let's ignore the 4GB limit discussed above while we examine this one. For PPC versus PPC64 your argument is valid. For IA-32 versus X86-64, you need to look at what the desktop will be used for. One of the benefits X86-64 gives you over IA-32 is more registers within the CPU. Operations involving registers are *much* faster than operations involving memory, allowing X86-64 apps to be up to about 15% faster than IA-32 in mathematical, scientific, or multimedia applications. -- Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams [EMAIL PROTECTED] PLEASE don't CC me; I'm already subscribed signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Virtually, all jurisdictions require work to be original to qualify for copyright. How is a rpm package signature not original? It's dependent on a number of factors, not all of which are publicly accessible (e.g., the private signing key), and some of which are variable (e.g., the build time).

Nor does pushing the button on a digital camera, and yet Flickr is filled with the results of that non-effort. You don't need to be a lawyer to see that anyone challenging the license of that non-effort would likely be laughed out of court. Anyway, let's not continue with *this* slippery slope.

Please send me any additional comments or components that I may have missed. Some corrections (PulseAudio contains an ALSA module that can redirect audio back into PA): ALSA provides an ALSA driver in it's plugins to send audio to a PulseAudio server, so that part is pure ALSA. I mean sure it uses PulseAudio's protocol to send over the network, but as far as ALSA is concerned it's just another ALSA kernel driver for communicating with sound hardare. The PulseAudio server by itself is of course a pure sound server. Having said that, I don't believe that the ALSA driver for PulseAudio counts as yet another interface. No, but it does place part of ALSA above (in front of?) part of PA. (JACK and OSS also have similar ALSA plugins, although I don't see the point of the OSS module) Also sound servers can and do use third party API products such as GStreamer. Can far, far more than do. The only concrete evidence of that I was able to find were the PA GStreamer and JACK plugins. I was unable to find any evidence that ESD or aRts use third-party APIs, only ALSA and OSS. (Incidentally, I found that NAS can only use OSS. Yet another reason for it to die.) Often GStreamer provides those plugins on behalf of the sound server (cause no one else wants to), but the plugin is still part of the sound server and as far as the sound server is concerned it is just sending audio directly to the hardware API. It's just sending audio, period. It's not at all concerned with where it ends up, just that it moves to the next stage. GStreamer/Phonon also have plugins for communicating with sound servers as well as HW APIs such as ALSA or OSS. When diagramming these third party APIs things can ugly pretty darn fast. Indeed.
