Josselin Mouette : :' : `. `' `- Your comment about what the OS does with hardware sounds pretty joking. I think that managing the hardware is exactly what the OS does, restricting what and when operations may ocurr, applying permissions, local security policies, etc... I understand you don't like this bug. Ok, no problem. But I think i'm not wasting more time arguing. -- /* Arturo Borrero Gonzalez || cer.i...@linuxmail.org */ /* Use debian gnu/linux!
