Subject: Spiral Knights, New Game From the Makers of Puzzle Pirates Coming to Linux this April

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Three Rings Design, known for developing innovative online games like Puzzle Pirates, is coming up with a new multi-player online RPG, Spiral Knights on April 4th. The game can more suitably fall into Action-RPG category as the game involves hack 'n' slash mechanics and feels very much like popular Legend of Zelda series. The graphics are quite nice and remind me of Torchlight in some way.

Subject: I am now a Linux Kernel Developer

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

On Sunday, March 20th, I submitted a patch to the Linux Kernel Mailing List, to fix a compile problem that began when the "binutils" package, that handles programs written in assembly, was updated such that something that was never a problem before became a problem.

Subject: Will the lack of commodity mobile hardware kill free software?

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

This magazine has voiced several concerns over the almost de-facto state of vendor lock-in in the mobile market and with good reason. What is the point of free software if the hardware locks your access to it? This premise was one of the driving forces behind v3 of the GPL and as far as I can tell the OpenPC project and other open hardware projects. But most of these hardware projects relate to the desktop PC model. Where is the equivalent commodity hardware for the mobile market, the tablet “market” or even the laptop one?Read the article at [url=http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/columns/will_lack_commodity_mobile_hardware_kill_free_software]Free software Magazine[/url].

Subject: An insider's view of the demise of the Symbian Foundation

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

When Nokia decided to turn Symbian into an open source project, the move was hailed as a possible model for how others could embrace the open source movement. OK, didn't happen. Symbian imploded. A model it wasn't. Here's an interesting insider viewpoint on what went wrong by Stephen Walli (of OutCurve, formerly known as the CodePlex Foundation), who was one of the consultants that originally helped Symbian go open source. Hint: never saddle your new open source foundation with 200 employees from the getgo.

The find command can be used to execute a command based on the data that is located with the initial find command. This provides a powerful alternative for manipulating the data you retrieve.

Subject: The King of Linux Distros

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

The open source survives and thrives by the sheer number of distros available. Proprietary software is just a small pond compared to the enormous number of distros available for open source. Again, distros are qualitatively superior and robust give developers the powerful tools that inspire their creativity, which they crave

Subject: Speed up your Internet browsing on Linux with a DNS Cache server

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Most Linux distributions, unlike OpenSuSE, OS X and Windows, do not have a DNS Cache service installed by default. Your computer will need to lookup a website’s IP address every time you visit it. The lookup request is passed on to the DNS server(s) specified in the /etc/resolv.conf file. It will take the server a few ms (milliseconds) at best to respond. It can take a ‘long’ time if your using a slow Internet connection (or a wireless LAN).

Java is entering a renaissance following a period of darkness under Sun Microsystems, according to Oracle and computing giant IBM. Mark Reinhold, chief architect of Oracle's Java platform group and one of Sun's former principal engineers, reckons that with Oracle's acquisition of the slowly fading Sun, things are looking brighter and "we" can finally make some progress.
