similar to: Wine, the GPL, and Lindows

Well, I retitled this message several times while writing it, as I discovered more things; the brick wall I ultimately ran into is getting the debugger to work. So, bear with me... I'm trying to get Wine working. Ultimately I have a couple of apps I want to get working, but at the moment I'm trying to run sol.exe to verify that Wine is installed and configured properly and... having

It is my understanding that R is licensed under the GPL with the exception of a few header files for the purposes of linking binary code with R under non-GPL licenses. However, the R-base package itself is licensed under the GPL, as are many (but not all) packages in CRAN. Furthermore, basically any R script will use functionality from R-base. As I understand it, the situation isn't

I'm new on here, so I hope this has not been answered too many times already. I searched the knowledge base at the Wine site without finding a solution. I just switched from Mandrake to Lindows, which seems to have a capable version of Wine running. However, with two Winapps I've tried to install, the initial setup window (fullscreen, borderless, no controls) completely hides the

We spent a little time here taking a look at the Vorbis licensing scheme and ran into some possible issues. In particular, the Vorbis FAQ page here says that the LGPL license applies to Vorbis libraries and GPL applies to source code (at least that's what I gather). http://www.vorbis.com/faq.html#flic http://www.fsf.org/copyleft/lesser.html Reading the text of these Gnu

Michael Robertson, founder of both MP3.com and Lindows, has launched a new company to supply inexpensive SIP phones ($129 for two) and related services. See today's press release at http://www.sipphone.com/tiki-index.php?page=SIPphone%20Inc My question for the list is who will be the first to report on the compatibility and usability of the SIPphone with Asterisk? The functionality

My thoughts on this after reading Steven's very politically worded reply is that IMO your best bet would be to go with RedHat, I am not going to go into details about the if's, when's, why's, and but's.. I am running Asterisk quite well on RedHat 9 and if you like I have created an install guide for setting up an Asterisk box on RedHat 9 which I can send to you if you are

I am running RedHat 9 and samba. I need to be able to set one password for each user and sync them with ssh, web, unix password. i.e. When I change samba pass, it changes unix, ftp, etc. Is this possible with samba? I saw that it is if you are running windows and then you can change the unix pass via samba. Is this possible when running linux. I just want to easily administer my users.

Hi there. First of all, I'd like to congratulate to developers for making a free specification and LGPLed decoder/encoder. :-). I did some test, ripping 17 tracks of my CD and converting them to both MP3 and OGG format. MP3 encoder/player was Lame 3.70 OGG encoder/player was from a Saturday nightly tgz package. ------------------------------------ MP3: LAME-3.70 mpg123-0.59r-4 MP3: lame -S

Apologies for cross-posting ... This project is looking for a maintainer. To quote from the Goose web site: "Goose is a LGPLed C++ library dedicated to statistical computation. The two design goals of this project are: To create a useful and complete system that takes advantage of C++'s features to improve the clarity of statistical code and that is easier to use for programmers.

Hello, a question to the developers: Does it make sense to try to integrate Tinc with Cspace to provide an open-source alternative to Hamachi? http://cspace.in/ I have not studied any Tinc source code yet. Comments? Regards, Christian

Hello all, I'm committing the heinous crime of posting before I've been on a list for very long, and I apologize in advance. I don't know how often this comes up and if it has recently if someone will just point me to an archive where this discussion has already happened, I'll shut up. I've got an MP3 tagger (QTagger) that I released a while back. I'm trying to

Hi If I have ser sending calls to asterisk, is there a way to get a different block called in sip.conf for each call (based on some variable, NOT username, From:), if not and they all hit one block which has contect=abc, then when that context is called/matched in extensions.conf, how can I have diff features for various groups of users. EG lets say I have a large company with 4 departments

I have done a lot of thinking about the Application Database http://appdb.codeweavers.com lately and how the rating system works. We currently have 848 Applications in there but only 58 with a 5 star rating which works out to less than 10% and thats the good news. The bad news is that of those 58 only 26 rate that without windows installed. After takeing a closer look, none of the apps I

Hi, I am trying to plot multiple lines on one plot such that all lines are of the same color (black) and continuous. I need to distinguish these multiple plots from each other by using different symbols (I am using pch=). However, all my lines are broken on both sides of the symbols. This unfortunate (and unsightly) behavior seems to be the default. In my search of the help archives for R over

Hello, I must confess to being an absolute newbie to wine - except for having followed the content of the mailing lists for a while. I would quite like to get involved with the project, and would prefer a testing-oriented or documentation role if there was a need for such. What I'd like to know at this point, if anyone would tell me, is where exactly is the wine project up to in terms of

Tivo *has* released their changes to the Linux PPC kernel, as they are required to do by the GPL because they *have* distributed those changes... in every. single. machine. http://www.tivo.com/linux/linux.asp They have not released the source to their own application that runs on Linux, nor are they required to.

The first release of Voiceglue is now available. Voiceglue provides a VXML interpreter using Asterisk telephony and the OpenVXI VXML parsing suite. It is released under the GPL, and thus compatible with Asterisk and OpenVXI licensing. The first release is available at the project website: http://www.voiceglue.org There is also a mailing list for those interested in continued evolution of
