I concur. it's not cool! We don't think it's a good idea to install linuxPPC just now; but the underlying OS should be transparent to all LADs/LAUs anyway! > Seriously though, linuxaudio.org pushes pretty hard to be the umbrella > organization for all things LINUX audio. right, gnu/Linux audio - not gnu/Linux servers. - FWIW: we use GNU software on this server. - but feel free to take this OT issue to the consortium mailing list. I'm not going to waste time for matters we can not change easily, now! > It's a bit ridiculous to not > even be running a free unix (let alone Linux) on a _web server_ of all > things. yes, it's kind of an ironic joke. IIRC BSD gets more out of your _web server_ hardware *and* it features JAILs, chroot-envs and security that gnu/Linux does not [yet]. - If there is going to be a shell login server for LADs to upload web-content etc. (alike shell.sf.net): it'd prefer a LINUX-compat freeBSD! Nevertheless once we get them, at least our mail, log and file server(s) are going to be pure gnu/Linux! #robin _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-dev
