Hi all dudes. We're organizing a petition to ask Creative to include Ogg Vorbis support in one of their next firmware releases of their digital players. This is very important for two reasons: 1) Creative is a big company. If they include Ogg support in their digital players, other manufacturers will follow the example. 2) This should improve use experience of this class of products for

Greetings, I started this petition the other day. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/PunkBusterforWINE As legitimate owner of a game, regardless of platform (providing that it will actually run) - one should be entitled to the online experience attached to the game. Sadly, for many Windows(tm) games under WINE this cannot be done because of the PunkBuster Anti-Cheat protection which does not

Hi, The last six months, I've been busy writing "Linux aux petits oignons", a general introduction to GNU/Linux. The book is aimed at the beginner (or intermediate) reader, though : 1) it's *not* based on Ubuntu, but on CentOS 5.3 2) it doesn't shy away from explaining basic UNIX concepts 3) it favours the use of simple command-line tools Here's the editor's page

What I meant by petitioning the board is for a group of people who are willing to actually contribute the time/effort required to make/modify software that would use something other than systemd. If such a group exists, and if that group wanted a way to get such software into CentOS, they could petition (ask) for the startin...

i was wondering how one would go about approaching hardware manufacturers to support flac. i get the sense that in the case of phatnoise, one of their devs already knew about flac and took the initiative (although if this isn't the case, please correct me). but how would you go about asking say, apple, to add flac support to the ipod? the ipod can already play a number of formats,

"The Council of the EU has a streaming service so that we can watch its meetings ? but the service can only be accessed by Mac or MS Windows users. This is because they employ WMV format for the videos. In the FAQ they express a really strange opinion about this: 'The live streaming media service of the Council of the European Union can be viewed on Microsoft Windows and Macintosh

Hi, I'm currently busy finishing "Linux aux petits oignons", a practical introduction to Linux, aimed primarily at the frustrated Windows user. This is the first of two volumes, it's written in french, and all examples in the book are based on CentOS. (Note: looks like I'll have to update some screenshots to 5.3 :oD) Usually the first question that arises is: why not

Bonjour, Je voudrais faire un petit programme sous R dans lequel je ferais intervenir des parametres que j'initialiserais dans R directement ou dans un fichier txt(des naturels, reels et caracteres). N'auriez vous pas des programmes deja fait qui reprennent ces techniques? De plus, je voudrais pouvoir travailler avec la distribution exp (rexp) de parametres: moyenne=1 et variance=1.

Hi all, What it says in the title. This is likely to cause a lot of CRAN packages to fail (I can try and quantify this if seen fit), but I think it's for the best. Packages should not (IMHO) be relying on partial matching in package code / tests. One might be more permissive for vignette/examples code, though I still find it poor practice. Among many reasons why package authors should resist

For example the amount of buffering required in the decoder. If I understand the flac format correctly, all decoders must support block sizes upto 65535 samples (ie 256k of decoded stereo

Cologne, 10.12.00 Dear Sir, Dear Madam, We are concerned about the possibility that the European Commission might introduce software patenting into the European Community because we think this will harm our profession. We make our living on data management and statistical analyses. Modern statistics crucially depends on algorithms [cf. Venables, W. N., & Ripley, B. D. (1999). Modern applied

I just noticed that two key pieces of information are not given by the summary() command: N and SD. we are given the N missing, but not the converse. I know these summary value can be obtained easy, but can't understand why these two pieces of information are not provided with the other info. Thanks, Gerard
