[Off Topic] humour, XMAS, ground loop - good business strategy
hi, I received this e-mail which contains a "ballad", at first I thought it was junk mail, but then I read through it, for the EE members of this list, it may be quite humorous. I don't know if the ballad is original, but at least it's the XMAS season, so it's something to lighten up your day, eh? -samudra """ How the Ground Loop Stole Christmas

I found your post not grumpy at all and to the point.

[PATCH] isatty(): use TCGETS instead of TIOCGPGRP, like dietlibc does
...d! bye, //mirabilos -- ?ah that reminds me, thanks for the stellar entertainment that you and certain other people provide on the Debian mailing lists ? sole reason I subscribed to them (I'm not using Debian anywhere) is the entertainment factor ? Debian does not strike me as a place for good humour, much less German admin-style humour?

Response to R across the university
...eir laptops and work in groups. Using JGR as the interface to R helped a lot, as it was easier for people to load their own data and use the help. Of course, JGR is compulsory in Augsburg. Giving everyone a Butterbreze (a local delicacy) halfway through may have contributed to the good humour of the course as well! Statistics doesn't always have a positive image. I can recommend running an R course as one way of making a good impression.

Slightly OT and mildly insane: Modems through VoIP :-))
...her banking software (sodding backs don't supply a decent web-application for company use). I am experimenting to see if we can get it to work (albeit slow) trough our ATA186 talking g711 to Asterisk with chan_capi to the outside world. Should we fail, there are more sane alternatives, but humour me :-)) Now, with some modems on the other end I have received nice 26400bps handshakes, but it takes a long time and the successrate is about 25% :-) My feeling is this should be better if we choose to slow it down more. But who can tell me what the best modem settings would be to try ? My HA...

[LLVMdev] Global register variables/custom calling conventions
...dyngen when llvm-qemu was written) is that it's extremely fast at generating reasonable code - this approach keeps it in place while we do extra, possibly more expensive work out of sight. It might not be a pretty idea, but LLVM does generate some very tight code :) It's an experiment - humour me... Sorry if this is somewhat OT.

`time` element syntax
Hi folks, I expect that the response to this post will be "we don't need such a thing", but humour me for a moment by pretending that in fact we do. HTML5 added a number of new tags to the mix, but arguably the most significant is the `time` element. It associates a machine-readable timestamp with a human-readable string (e.g. `<time datetime="2011-05-30T15:00-07:00">30 May 2011...

[PATCH] isatty(): use TCGETS instead of TIOCGPGRP, like dietlibc does
While all ?real? ttys may support TIOCGPGRP, /dev/console doesn?t; using TCGETS here allows Linux booted with init=/bin/mksh-static to have working interactive command line (PS1, editing, etc).

Well, but I still don't get the reason why you need to pin (some) internal QEMU state variables to fixed registers? -- With best regards, Anton Korobeynikov Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics, Saint Petersburg State University

Radeon HD 4550 driver
Upgraded the kernel to the latest, then tried to rebuild the proprietary Catalyst driver for a Radeon HD 4550 on a Dell Optiplex 980. The install dies, with a c error. Anyone else out there succeed in building one on the 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5-x86_64 kernel? I went to the ATI website, and the "installation instructions" include that it needs a) 32 bit software (which? dunno) and b) a

Shoutcast compatibility suggestions
Hi: Ok, I've not managed to find any documentation on the shoutcast compatibility introduced in icecast 2.2.0, so please humour me if I missunderstand how it's meant to work. This is my understanding of it currently: 1. You configure Icecast (as shown in the shoutcast example) so that shoutcast connections get mapped to the mountpoint you define. 2. You configure a listen socket specifically for use as a shoutcas...
