XScreenSaver
Hi,
I'm currently moving all our local school's desktop clients from
Slackware 14.1 to CentOS 7 + Xfce. Right now I'm fine-tuning the default
user profile.
I have a problem with XScreenSaver. The application per se works very
well. Only there's a hard-coded pop-up window that reminds the user that
he's not running the latest version. So, if I'm running version 5.36 as

I just got the following response from Jamie Zawinski, the XScreenSaver
developer:
"Yes, your distro sucks, and I wish they would stop redistributing my
software if they refuse to keep it up to date."
He apparently had the same reaction with the Debian guys.

[LLVMdev] Which linux distribution required the least effort to install LLVM 2.3?
Hi!
I'm a new LLVM user.
I want to start using the LLVM System v2.3. However, I don't want to spend
all my time hunting, pecking, downgrading, and/or upgrading packages to get
LLVM v2.3 running. I was wondering which Linux distrubutions(FC7, Ubuntu,
NetBSD, etc) have required the least effort out of the box to start running
LLVM v2.3.
tia,

Groups
Hello,
Is it possible to group many nodes together? Suppose I have a large
number of machines that I all want to have the same config - rather
than specify them as individual nodes each inheriting the same config,
I''d like to say that a group inherits a config, and define the group
elsewhere.
Does this sort of construction already exist? Could it be cobbled
together from what we

XEmacs vs. GNU Emacs?
As a user of only R, I don't use much of the potential of ESS and Emacs.
Without entering a religious feud, is there any reason I should use XEmacs
rather than my current GNU Emacs?
(I looked on the XEmacs site, but I didn't understand the programming
issues they were talking about (over my head).)

Last year I arranged with my college radio station and ITS department to
webcast the radiostation using icecast. The webcast has been a wonderful
success so far. My problem now is not technical, but political. A few days
