Amu ca 99,9% din populatzia linuxoida a RSR shi-a tras RHL9 fara doate si alte
kkt-uri, ca sirmele s-au mai racit si bandwidth-ul poate fi realocat iar pentru alte
scopuri mult mai importante (in spetza pr0n, mirc shi warez) ar cam fi cazul sa
vedem cu ce se maninca ultimul sosit in "plutonul de 9 " dpdv al sysadminilor -
adica al alora care din cand in cand mai ruleaza si ceva aplicatzii pe linux si nu
belesc toata ziua ochii pe nush ce super thema comuna KDE si Gnome (fie ea
BlueCurve sau Galaxy - toata lumea multzumita?), deci fara alt blah-blah de
introducere va recomand sa cititi cu mare atentie articolul de mai jos:

"My favourites":

   * Addition of Native POSIX Thread Library (NPTL
     <http://www.kerneltrap.org/node.php?id=422>) for standards based
     threading support with impressive performance. This is definitely
     a nice addition, however, I anticipate that sys admins who add
     patches on-top-of the RHL kernel from 3rd party (UML, FreeSWAN,
     etc) sources will have a more difficult time getting the patches
     to apply and work cleanly. Presumably when the 2.6 kernel comes
     out, the divergence of the RHL kernel will drop substantially.
         o Certain applications using the old LinuxThreads API in a
           certain manner may no longer work (was that vague enough?)
               + In particular if using Java, update to the latest
                 version from Sun at:
               + http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/download.html
               + The WIN32 API translation software, WINE, suffers from
                 this problem. Proper fixes are in the works, however,
                 workarounds exist
                 
<http://www.winehq.com/index.php?issue=163#Making%20Wine%20Run%20With%20glibc%202.3>.
               + Installing and running Oracle 9i R2
                 <http://www.gurulabs.com/oracle-linux.html> has major
                 issues since it includes two different older embedded
                 Java JVMs that don't work with NPTL. The solution is
                 stick with RHL8.0 or the officially supported Red Hat
                 Linux AS edition.

Mdah, "trei dintr-o lovitura" (Java, Wine & Oracle9iR2) nu e rau deloc, imi place extrem de mult
faza cu "stick with...the officially supported Red Hat Linux AS edition" ..mai ales pretul ;).
