"Couldn't" compile wasn't anywhere in my statement. My complaint is that I *have to*. That's a crock. I want to do stuff, not spend countless hourse chasing down dependancies and compiling crap. I...
10-4 brother. Endless hidden dependencies, the requirement to compile many of the components, and almost non-existant gracious help from those with the secret knowledge is going to keep Linux from...
I couldn't find it for download anywhere. Is it available yet?
If the program was designed with cross-platform requirements in mind, then the impact would at least be minimized to include just the user interface portions.
I just started a project to convert a 500,000+ line C++ project to be cross platform. I chose wxWidgets because it's fairly MFC-like, so I understand the basic structure of the framework. It also...
According to synaptic, I have gcc installed. However, when I go into a terminal and type "gcc -v", I get an error message (don't remember exact text, but I think its' something akin to the old dos...
The "difference in eye-candy" factor is one of the biggest problems with Linux, as I see it, and you're right, I was already aware of the visual problems when trying to write apps that are...
I've been a Windows C++ programmer for about 15 years, and I want to start coding for Linux. I prefer the Gnome desktop, and I want to use QT (because it's similar to MFC), but I don't want to...
For your information, I don't see it either. Our IT department blocks personal pages and most image hosting pages, and whatever you used is one of them.
If you're going to post images, use a real...
OpenGL is not supported by MS. If ATI and nVidia provide OpenGL drivers, they do it on their own.
The simple truth is driven by numbers. There's more Windows boxes than anything else combined. ...
I don't run any AV programs on Windows, and I don't plan on doing it on Linux.
Ummmm, it seems to me that with an existing OS as an example, Linux distros would have gotten it right by now...
I think the article is pretty close to the truth. Linux's biggest weakness is the variety of package managers. Add to that the occasional need to use the commandline to get stuff installed, or even...
I installed azureus before i saw this. In any case, it still took 8 hours to download after restarting with azureus. IMHO, performance of this torrent stuff really sucks.
Here's another idea...
A conveyor belt in a dark and dingy factory is moving along under a big round tube. Every couple of seconds, the conveyor stops and a robot is "floomphed" onto it. The robot...
I think the commercial should connect with the slogan.
Okay, I have it installed, but my "health" is always yellow. I passed the port 6881 test when i installed it. What do I do to make it green?
I'm behind a Linksys router with port 6881 forwarded to this box.
Upload speed is not capped.
Number of users is not capped.
I have a 5-7mb down/512k up connection.

That's all well and good, but this thing's been cooking for over two hours. I got the install iso in less than 15 minutes. Right now, the shittorrent is speeding along at 4KB/s, and it bounces...
This is a freakin' joke. I downloaded the CD ISO's in less than 15 minutes. With Bittorrent, it's taken me 1 hour 10 minutes just to get the first 90mb. This is no faster than freakin' dial-up.
Is...
I read the how-tos and the release notes. I would assume the versions I downloaded are the latest because I downloaded them a couple of nights ago from the transgaming website. I ran the tests in...
I installed Cedega and then P2P (I never saw anything about having to install Cedega from P2P) . I think I have to uninstall the whole she-bang and start over.
The CVS version doesn't support the various forms of copy protection though.
Nascar Racing 2003 Season. Why would that matter?
For what it's worth, I installed it under Wine a few days ago, so I know the CD works.
