I totally agree. Selling out to IBM is a huge mistake on soo many levels. I
encourage people to sign my petition ASAP and pass along the link to fellow
supporters of help keeping Sun independent:
http://www.petitiononline.com/smi09/petition.html
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Why does SUN even need to be purchased by another company when they supposedly
"have so much cash laying around" (which is what everyone says anyway)?
Why would Sun buy MySQL for $2 billion only to have IBM buy all of SUN for $6
billion? It makes no sense I would have rather had SUN not buy
The part that bothers me the most was where he said:
"I think the stuff on Solaris and SPARC is likely to see EOLs over time
through the IBM acquisition. "
WE CAN'T ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN!!!
Where's Scott McNealy and his golf clubs when you need him? Maybe he can pummel
some sense into the rest
It's too bad that IBM is going to buy SUN. There's a slim chance that FTC will
stop it but unlikely. If only SUN went to another company who would build on
their technologies, not kill it.

You need cdrtools from Jorg Schilling.
Do a readcd -v -dev=0,0,0 meshpoints=10 f=output.iso
then do a cdrecord -v -dev=0,0,0 -driveropts=burnfree -dao output.iso
works every time.

It was the 4 th April 2005 when moves to set up The Free Software Community
were made by Sun.It would be a great idea to celebrate this by a desktop theme.
I spotted a great graphics design and wondered if anyone would like to help
start a project.

Will it survive underlying x server crash?

That would be a bug
Is there a standard tools to verify disk bandwidth for x86-64. (like io
Meter). I have been using standard tools like dd.
I understand that IO Meter is not available for x86-64. if so, are there any
chances to get it a ported?
Thanks
