if you want a free/open compiler, check out the GNU compiler collection
http://gcc.gnu.org/

hmm, when I was having problems with grub a while back, a friend told me it was because I had an integrated video card. Now that I think about it, this friend was by no means an authority on the subject, and now I'm going to do some research on this. As soon as my final CS project is done.

grub is only an option if you don't have an integrated graphics card
edit - most likely bad information, read on
I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused

distcc can be quirky. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes ebuilds disable it. Something you should also try if slow builds are annoying you is ccache. http://ccache.samba.org/ Portage will automagically use it if you add it to your features flag (after you emerge ccache, of course)

Give me a little while to figure out my budget (I've got to talk to my parents about it).

Btw, I've never stayed in a hostel (they're uncommon here, I think). Could I get a room at one for more than one day at a time and leave my stuff there?

Could you help me find a place to stay in time for the Midsummer Festival? I understand it's the 19th and 20th.

When exactly are you going to Scotland?

LfK: I'll let you know if I'm in that area at the time.

Im probably too busy to take my ass to lund but ill follow this thread closely to see how it goes. If you plan to come buy stockholm, give me a mail. I live 10 minutes outside of stockholm by subway. Of course I'm going to visit Stockholm! If I came a week early, could you show me around and help m...

No one can be told what the matrix is, you have to experience it for yourself.

I'm going to be studying in Lund, Sweden from June 27th-August 6th. I'm free on the weekends, and might go early and stay late. Let me know if you want to meet up. Bonus points if you'll show me around Europe. I've got weekends free. I speak a fair bit of Spanish, a bit of German, and by August, a b...

I learned boatloads by installing Gentoo. The documentation is excellent. At first it was extremely painful, but by the second time I installed it, I had it mostly figured out. Another great way to learn is go to LUGs. You can see what people do with their systems, and how. You can also find many kn...

you can use a combo of scp and tar to restore the home directory to a known state

One Mac complaint. I don't like to have to press CTRL and mouse button just to emulate right click for Windows, Linux. Is there any way around this?

In Linux on PPC, many people remap f11 and f12 to middle and right click.

I've been using Firefox/Firebird lately, and it's grown a lot on me. I used to use regular Mozilla and Galeon primarily.

I didn't care for it, but I guess I can see why some people liked it.

In theory, games that use the same hardware features and such as the others that are already supported will also work.

yeah, but Linux doesn't use a file system that involves drive letters like FAT or NTFS

Linux is capable of using FAT and NTFS (although the NTFS implementation isn't very reliable for writing).

The filesystem hierarchy doesn't use drive letters, which isn't dependant on the filesystem.

installers? Just gimme the source
The Adblock plugin completely owns. I've switched to fire* instead of Mozilla because of it.

Back to the sig pics vs. avatars issue. Small(say 50x50), static avatars are a million times less intrusive than sig pics - they stay off to the side, out of the way, and most importantly they don't add to the size of the page . Avatars are better tham sig pics because they reside in what would oth...

Some motherboards and processors have hardware random number generators that IIRC, use electrical static to generate random numbers.

in an effort to get obnoxious things banned, I'll be now typing in obnoxious colors.

So.. When you guys gonna stop by Sweden?

I might be studying Swedish in Lund, Sweden this summer. I'd totally meet with you.
I'll find out in a month if I make it or not.

Kill all the images not directly related to the topics at hand. If you want to find your posts easily, use Mozilla and hit /username. Next thing you know everyone is going to start using colored text to find their posts more easily...

so you're asking how to remove Linux and get the space back in Windows?

Well w/no file transfer support and no working Yahoo support (look at the news page) that spells not-as-good-as-trillain pro to me... It works for me. Free as in speech and as in beer. Jabber, AIMx2, MSN, and Yahoo on right now. All in the same buddy list. Tabs, spell check, logs, pretty UI, availa...

I would love that feature. I'd probably spend A LOT more time here if I had an ignore feature. in vBulletin, you can still view an ignored person's posts by clicking a link. So 99% of the time, you can safely ignore the person, but if you think that they might have finally said something interesting...
