Please vote against software patents

2005-10-20 Conversa Jordi Fontich
Hola,
Us reenvio un correu de ThankPoland.info, en el qual sol·licita el vot del 
millor europeu del 2005 (European of the year) per al fundador de 
NoSoftwarePatents.com, el polac Florian Mueller.

Dear Supporters of ThankPoland.info,

By thanking the Polish government for its courageous intervention against
software patents, you have already been very helpful (you may refer to
http://wiki.ffii.org/Sejm050216En for details and some pictures of the
Thank Poland ceremony which took place in Warsaw in February of this
year, in the Polish Parliament, Sejm.)

There is now a new and extremely similar opportunity to make a statement
against software patents by taking a minute to fill out a simple Internet
form.  The founder of the NoSoftwarePatents.com campaign, Florian Mueller,
is currently running in an Internet poll for the European of the Year
against such celebrities as U2 frontman Bono and politicians like
Schroeder, Merkel and Blair.  For voting recommendations and further
information, please click here:

http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/en/m/ev50/vote.html

When I was in Warsaw, I learned from Polish politicians that Florian's
NoSoftwarePatents.com campaign website has had a significant impact among
them.  Two Polish politicians have told me personally that they had
printed out information from NoSoftwarePatents.com and used it to inform
other politicians about the issue.  Florian, who had come to Warsaw for the
Thank Poland ceremony, also played a key role during the press conference
afterwards.

In view of all this, I have no doubt that Florian deserves to win those
Campaigner of the Year and European of the Year awards.  There is a
realistic chance that we can, by voting for him on the Internet, make him
the new European of the Year, which would demonstrate to politicians, the
press and the public that software patents are highly unpopular.  Hence,
every vote for Florian is a strong vote for freedom from software patents.

It is necessary to vote for one candidate in each of the ten categories.
Florian is running in two of them, and there are also other categories in
which we can support those who opposed software patents and vote against
those who wanted to make software legally patentable in Europe.

Best regards,

Norbert Bollow

P.S.  Everyone can participate in this Internet poll, including
  non-Europeans.  On the NoSoftwarePatents.com site, texts (and
  banners) are available in more than a dozen languages.  You can also
  send emails to make friends aware of this Internet referendum.

  Today, five celebrities from the world of free and open-source
  software (Richard Stallman, Tim O'Reilly, Alan Cox, Rasmus Lerdorf
  and Monty Widenius) also called on their supporters to vote for
  Florian:

Gravar cds, ha de ser fàcil...

2005-10-20 Conversa Ferriol
Bones,

M'estic barallant amb la meva gravadora, que també és torradora ara
mateix m'està torrant allò que no sona...

No se en quin punt de les actualitzacions ha deixat de funcionar,
utilitzo una debian sid.

Fa temps vaig seguir les instruccions del mestre Gallir però ara no hi
ha manera...
http://bulma.net/body.phtml?nIdNoticia=1843

Cada cop que intento gravar un cd em peta.
Em podeu passar algun enllaç de com fer la configuració per poder torrar
cds amb tranquilitat ?

He cercat força i no aconseguiexo aclarir-ho

He provat de seguir les instruccions de
/usr/share/doc/cdrecord/README.ATAPI.setup
però en el pas dos em diu:

# cdrecord dev=ATA: -scanbus
