Quote: Well, if they own the software, I imagine they can change the license to anything they want. It's just that simple. The owner typically reserves the right to do what he/she wants, and this is a major reason why licensing is so weak. (...) It's not that simple with GPL.. The main question right now, as I and 'adamvjackson' discussed it earlier, is legitimacy of the release. But still, AOL has to prove that GPL had never been applied.. You can't revoke the license just because you don't like it; it's not that simple.

Well... the problem is that it WAS released.. and it was released under GPL!!

AOL had no rights to revoke the license as long as source was posted under the GPL. It's rediculous! You make a software product, post it under GPL and then change the license terms.. I don't think so, GPL simply doesn't work like that.. The only thing that I can think of, which may justify AOL's license "revocation", is that software had never been applied the GPL terms.. and this might mean suing Nullsoft, what makes it more ridiculous than it already is.

I'm talking about this section.. your post was completely unrelated to NT4 or 2000.. So, it should have been posted here. It doesn't bother me, but it seems to bother others.

Quote: The Windows Resource Kit comes with a few handy utils for stuff like this. They're basically ported from POSIX (IIRC), and will happily let you delete files and folders that have characters in them that Windows doesn't like. The resource kit contains a file called rm.exe and this is the tool you're after. It doesn't seem to be available from the MS website, but I'm sure you could find a version of it on the web somewhere that will do the trick. http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/

Have you applied all SPs? And btw, which windows do you use?

Never tried it with DOS, so I'm not sure it's going to work... but try to add something like c:\="DOS"

Well.. There're several ways... It wouldn't hurt you to read this: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/XWindow-User-HOWTO

Quote: (...) i put mandrake 9 on and when it boots it goes to load lilo(bootloader) and it just displays a crap load of the number 40. then crashes the computer. Where did you install lilo? Are you dual booting? If so, what other OS do you have?

You have to be root (or you must have root privileges) to run drakconf To install/remove new packages go to Configure -> Packaging in KDE's menu (I hope I remember it correctly )

1) to compile: Code: gcc -o output_file source.c 2) to run: Code: ./output_file PS: type "man gcc" if you need more information

It's been a while since the last time I used IE.. but I can't recall having any problem that could be similar to what you're describing in your post. Is it SP1? I would also appreciate if you could post a build number..

Quote: Yeah, well that didn't work. I just get a black screen. Trust me, it works.. Try this: Code: dd if=/dev/hdaX bs=512 count=1 of=/mnt/floppy/linux.bin but before you do this.. 1) check boot-line in "lilo.conf" and change hdaX in my post to whatever it is in your "lilo.conf" 2) get a blank floppy and type this: Code: mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy 3) apply the first line, I mean "dd if=/dev .." Now boot into Windows and copy linux.bin to c:\ and make sure you have changed "boot.ini" Good luck!

Quote: However some pages (MS site and those created with Frontpage etc) refuse to display correctly or at all if you don't use a version of IE, hence my original post. This is because those pages do not follow HTML standard. Quote: With Phoenix, you can add this line to the user.js file: Code: // Stop reusing active windows:user_pref("advanced.system.supportDDEExec", false); With Mozilla, you can simply type "about:config" into Location bar and change the value there.. I thought you could do the same in Phoenix too.. I'm not that sure though.

Quote: It's just the IDE (Visual Studio) that they charge an arm and a leg for. Which is why I mentioned SharpDevelop, as it gives you a free IDE to go with the SDK. Open source... nice Doesn't Delphi 7 ship with Delphi for .NET?? I believe it does.. hmmm.. if I recall it correctly.

Quote: Check if your mouse and keyboard are listed in the Device Manager. Ok.. this was really dumb.. (since both mouse and keyboard do not work) But anyway, did this happen right after you installed Win2000?? And one more question.. are you sure that your mouse and keyboard are working at all??
