Hi all,
pondus was previously licensed under GPLv3+; now starting from 0.7.0 the
license is MIT.
That's doable? o.O

Who would implement this, if this is approved by many would someone do it or
do I need to find an employee to do it?
Is this mailing list a suggestion forum for those that can do or can some do
it themselves?
Well, I think it's better you post
Fedora has already chosen to make the 32bit builds incompatible with pre-686
systems for performance gains
Yes, a decision I consider to be a Fedora managment mistake.

Nope, Bryce doesn't get to work on upstream in any significant way as
part of his Ubuntu work. I was chatting with Dave about this on IRC the
other day. The most significant submission to upstream X.org that's ever
come out of Ubuntu is a quirk table. (yippee.)

The Bugzappers also always happy to have more people volunteer to help with
X.org bug triage; it's a lot of work to keep on top of.
I'd like to help. But the wikipage for testing Xorg issues* is a way
to much to read, given the case you follow all the links on the site

The netbook problem can be addressed by a download netbook edition link
which can then be not only 32-bit, but also using a desktop optimized for
netbook display and RAM sizes rather than the default GNOME.
There is a Fedora 12 LXDE Spin that I think would fit the gap. But it
need some love. :
Xorg has a lot of catching up to do. Just be patient.
I am not very good at it. xD

I noticed that http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora appears to be
strongly promoting i386 Fedora over x86_64. Is this intentional or an
oversight?
I agree, that was my first impression as well.
However, if you just want a single download now button, 32-bit would get
you the widest hardware
IMHO, the right solution is to make the 64-bit edition the default download
and to work on making the error message people get when trying to install it
on a 32-bit machine nicer: We're sorry, but your computer is too old to
install this 64-bit version of Fedora. Please download the legacy
Yeah, they're a huge step backwards (and not just for 64-bit computing, but
also for CPU speed, RAM, disk space (especially where SSDs are used instead
of the traditional HDDs) and LCD pixel counts
I like this fact. I think this will push Linux. Code on slow machines,
and on normal machines, the
Except, that could be false advertising. In most cases, where CPU
computation is not used heavily, 64-bit is actually SLOWER than the 32-bit
counterpart. Optimizations are narrowing the gap, but it still remains
true.
Why then should someone prefer 64bit over 32bit?

That gives very little incentive to fetch the correct version.
Why should a person bother with it, when a pc can do that?
And I think that by now the vast majority of our userbase uses 64-bit-capable
machines.
I don't know. Maybe a poll would be good for that? :)

4 Reasons:
1: Date/Time stamp, Unix time doesn't work in 32-bit past 2038 (not really
affecting us much, most of us will replace our PCs long before then)
What do the people with 32bit cpus who won't/can't upgrade?
2: Access more than 4GB
What do the people with 32bit cpus who won't/can't upgrade?
Then the Y2k38 problem occurs, which is what the theoretical Y2K problem
would have been.
No. I meant, what is the solution?
Can't we not just write down the time somewhere and began to count the

Contrary to what the man page says, wodim doesn't automatically format
DVD+RWs, so you have to fully format the disc in advance before using
wodim to write it.

The executive summary is: Xen does not let a kernel boot itself, because
mimicking bare hardware is too tedious (and pointless.) Instead, Xen
instantiates an instance of a kernel into the Xen environment. To do this
instantiation, Xen does its own decompression, so Xen must know everything
I am reading between the lines here (I have never looked at this stuff in
Xen) but I would assume it's for the reason given above. The kernel's own
decompression routines must run very early on in the boot process - well
before the first line of C code runs and while the CPU (on x86) is
You don't wanna change something on the harddisks, but wanna safe the
changes. So you boot from Live-CD and the changes are redirected to
the USB-Stick. Puppy Linux does it that way*. I wanna see it in
Fedora. :D

Already possible I believe. I think there's a persistent overlay kernel
command argument that you can point to use a file on your USB drive if you're
booting from CD. I may be wrong on this though.
I research for that..
It's easier just to boot from USB though. Faster all the way around.

The primary usage of this feature is booting a USB stick with your live image

If a release is in freeze, it can be in marked in an yellow circle, and when
we can push packages to a release, it can be in a green circle, similar to

As I know, the kernel is compressed with bzip2 or gzip. How about
using LZMA instead? Or is that already the case?

There is such an option but it is currently disabled due to missing support
in xen.
Thanks. But don't understand. What has LZMA todo with Xen?

I just saw this article about an effort to create Universal binary style ELF

that Fedora could integrate both x86-32 and x86-64 into single DVD sets.
