Ah, someone with the same problem is me.

I too have a machine that randomly shuts down since an upgrade to Karmic a few days ago. No heat issues, no notification, no log entries, just a random...

Not really, if by some long shot the patent makes it through we'll take the necessary actions to fight it with the help of the SFLC. At this point, we're just ignoring it.

Try here. They do a lot of the PS3/Linux stuff, specifically with Ubuntu.

I got an automated response from the SFLC telling to me to agree to certain privacy bits and legal stuff. We'll see where this goes.

We know all that, our trig functions are credited to someone else, we in no one invented headtracking or integrating it with computers for pseudo-3d environments. What this is over is the stacking of...

There is not a single thing in this patent that was new or novel as of June, 2008. That's what I'm fighting at the moment. I'm not worried about getting sued if it makes it through or having to shut...

They sue the maintainer of the code. We've seen it happen to free projects before. Keep in mind that one of the major reasons for people not trusting Mono is because of how it relates to Microsoft...

Which is why I have contacted the only available legal consultation about the matter. We'll see where it goes.

At this point, there isn't even any evidence that they've implemented it at all. You don't need to build what you describe in a patent. The important thing here is the concept, which we thought of as...

For the record, I really don't hate Apple so much. I own an iPod Touch and iPhone, both of which I use quite frequently. I just don't like it when they try to patent my stuff. The reason we don't...

What's this? A thread linking to my blog about my rant? Oh dear.

Where do we begin... I guess I'll give an overview of the real story:
Back in December of 2007 I saw the famed Wii Remote...

Is it just me, or does that first email look like a poorly veiled attempt to get more people (or at least the OP) to play Quake Live?

Too lazy to take a second picture of just the server, as I had this one lying around on it.

The bug is a combination of X and Cairo far more than it is a bug in Firefox. While a workaround could (and probably should) be used, that isn't the case, and either way, Cairo and X are still at...

Not really: "GNU" software is software developed by GNU. BusyBox has no affiliation with GNU except that they use their license - like thousands of other open-source projects. Calling it "GNU lite"...

Honestly, it isn't. The term "retarded" was taken from Latin to refer to things that are slow, and that should very appropriately include the processing time of a damaged human brain. It was never...

Congratulations, you've emasculated my server.

@OP: Crazy? That's a typical spring day in Ohio.

You people are totally missing his emphasis: he likes that it has a physical, clicking button to trigger a right click.

Jaunty's boot times really are quite amazing. My laptop (which I posted earlier) used to take over a minute to boot. It still did after upgrading, but a reinstall (my first ever) made a massive cut...

My team and I won this. First place prize was a Dell Mini 9 for each team member. Interestingly, I brought my own Mini to the contest (never turned it on, though...)
