* linux IS doomed. it will be replaced by something better someday. while it's here, however: * you can fix your own 1.0.13 kernel, as you have full access to the sourcec code. do i have full access to slimdevices source code? * you don't have to use ELF. you can invent your own binary format. you have access to the source code, and can code away to your heart's content. can i change the way slimserver accesses its database? * you'll have to check with your doctor to see what can be done about your stature. * you can generate A.OUT files all you'd like without even having to add a "-o A.OUT" to the cc command line. can i alter the slimserver code and make sure that compilation albums are handled correctly? * since the source is readily available, you can alter libc5 in any way you'd like to. * and yes, if enough people don't get what they want, the whole GPL scheme could be doomed. care for a victor 9000 pc, or a wang word processor? -- shermoid "you are only young once, but you can be immature forever" "life is uncertain; eat dessert first" - anonymous please visit my mcintosh website: http://alumni.cse.ucsc.edu/~sherman ------------------------------------------------------------------------ shermoid's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=379 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27746 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
