I already figured out that it doesn't work in Linux. But I'm looking at a MicoATX board that has an embedded 8200. I was then going to add in either a 9800GTX2 or an X260. So I'm not looking for SLI...

I believe you missed my point. I'm saying that Linux has games that are Linux games. Not ran in wine and not a port.

Not only this, but thanks to Garage Games, we also have Linux developers.

Linux has games.

Many users also just have one partition for Linux.

Actually, I think it's more fear of installing Linux than anything. Also a few people I know seem to think the Operating System is a physical part of the computer and can not be changed without...

When it comes to education projects, it isn't that it needs to be better, it just needs to work. I'm not proposing to launch some massive framework to be used by all, I'm just making something that...

2 years Java and C++. I've done plenty of work on webpages during Highschool and University, so I figure that this shouldn't be too much trouble. I enjoy finding new challenges in programming. I...

I'd rather not start and sorts of debates over languages, I was comfortable doing PHP in the past, and the Idea behind this project was to use as little outside work as required, essentially to make...

Obviously HTML will need to used for the layout, but I wonder what will be used to tie in to the database, generate the pages based upon the HTML templates, ect.

If this really doesn't matter than...

So you're suggesting python for the frontend? I can track down webhosting that fits the system later, for my testing computer it'll take whatever I decide it needs.

Now what would this be possible with a PHP based system? Or would another language be perferred.

Right now I gather it doesn't matter until I get into the specific polling routine.

Or do you...

Okay, so given my detest of flash, and lack of my own copy, I'm thinking Java is the way to go. So it looks like the forum system will be just one big Java applet this way.

With the Server Polls,...

Okay, so what would the plugin options be? What would be the easiest for the client?

this is why I'm thinking there must be other solutions, JS polls are just not reasonable. AJAX (Java with XML afaik) apparently minimizes this by only updating what it in the defined application...

I wasn't planning on it. Let us also note that it is a pain in the *** for me to use, especially if the whole plot is to be a dynamic and fast website. Besides, bandwidth doesn't grow on trees.

I'm thinking about making a web page. I've done HTML and CSS, even javascript and flash extensively. So the laws of progress have me considering two similar ideas, one less complicated than the next....

No one can ever live down pre-ordering Daikatana it seems.

But still because of games.

As with any debate about what would help, it won't have an instant effect, it takes time to build a gaming audience on anything, just look at the linux games we have...

I got mine new an eternity ago, and it still is going strong... too bad LoZ and Mario 2 are dead...

But some things just don't last forever and here a used one is usually only five dollars.

Cool, I'll keep this in mind if my Dreamcast ever dies. How well does it emulate?

how about any of the id games? They are the marker to which all fps's are measured against, and id has been really good at porting all their software to Linux.

what happened to long and cryptic passwords at login?

Maybe I should test this and offer to install ubuntu for free and see how people like it. It'd be an interesting experiment given the negative local reviews of vista.

I just really don't see how a Gaming Ubuntu would be anything more than Xubuntu, low memory footprint, simple design, highly usable, ect. Any more and you may as well use Damn Small Linux.

The games should fit the system not the other way around. Really, if you keep tabs on your software, Ubutnu is a really good platform to run games on. It's stable and has a low memory footprint. A...
