I think it's better than that in both FreeBSD and OpenSolaris worlds. Can't comment on the FUSE implementation though.

The patent issue is much more annoying. It seems like Sun filed some patents around the key designs in ZFS. Now that Oracle owns them, I don't like the idea of what they might do when a "competing"...
Again, the charge controller prevents overcharging, but the problem with running a laptop all the time with AC power is the heat! I've seen some pretty frightening laptop designs that place the...
I mean adding an ABP rule/filter to do it.
Lithium batteries are sensitive to heat, so if your laptops are constantly powered on and running on AC power, the amount of heat generated nearby the battery could negatively impact its lifespan.
Yeah, no kidding. At office hours in the class I TA, I saw it on a student's netbook, and I swear it took up over half the screen estate! :D
Are you sure that you aren't thinking of btrfs? Although Reiser4 uses modified B-Trees (Dancing B-Trees, as Hans called it in his whitepaper), it does not employ copy-on-write techniques, unlike...
Adblock Plus should be effective at blocking that gigantic image. It makes me feel bad though to block that banner, I should say. It's for a good cause.

I'd suggest using relatime instead of noatime -- some applications rely on access times being updated.
But the relevant option to enable TRIM is discard.
Currently there's no DRM-like application security system. Developers have to rely on the good will of the users to appreciate the fact that there's no DRM and show that they're responsible enough to...
Unfortunately, use the filesystem for a few weeks then try this again. :)
The performance of reiser4 in my experience rapidly degrades over time, which is what the reiser4 repacker was supposed to...
IMO the problems with ext4 are not anything to do with filesystem corruption. Ext4 might lose a bit more of your data when you randomly pull the power plug compared to ext3, but filesystem corruption...
This is one reason why you should consider the chmod symbolic name syntax as opposed to an octal permissions mode. Namely, the capital X specifier would've done a better job at doing what you...
That's a bad idea, unless you can guarantee you'll never have an improper shutdown. Otherwise, your SSD is just as vulnerable as a rotational HDD to filesystem corruption and the need to run a...
My primary machines are all Apple hardware; I keep a dual-boot on my desktop of Win7 and OS X, and within OS X I can use Parallels to virtualize Ubuntu or Win7 with full 3D support.
On my laptop I...
Depends on what you want it to do. You won't be able to sync music with it unless you're at 10.04. No version of Ubuntu can update the firmware on the device, and you can't really back up the device...
One thing that Ubuntu does that Arch and Slackware tend not to, is to pre-configure "bundled" projects in a way that provides a positive out-of-the-box configuration for the typical user. This is...
To be fair, Apple is not the only one, particularly in the mobile devices and handsets industry, to engage in the practice of restricting what can or can not be done on the appliance. In fact, a...
Compiling from source is rarely the right solution to the problem. What Paul820 suggested is the best idea for figuring out what's wrong.
Actually, there's a "background task completion" service that allows you to run arbitrary threads in the background for up to 10 minutes before the OS forces it to quit. A lot of IM clients use that....
Wow man, that sucks. I join Phrea in asking you to consider continuing your valuable work. It's unfortunate how prevalent 0day attacks are against these setups, and yes, how automatic domain...
For the record, this has been properly implemented in Lucid by Scott James Remnant (Keybuk) and friends.
This thread is old and its information is only worth historical nostalgia at this point....
Well, the maintainers of that PPA compiled that custom kernel for you. So in Lucid you'll be relying on them to track the latest security updates.
The repository should also be valid for Lucid. Note that this requires compiling a new kernel because the magicmouse driver requires more information from the Bluetooth stack than the standard Linux...
