Too bad the new design was not in a content management system so that content could be divorced from layout. Makes language translation much easier to maintain.

Re: KDE 3.0 is out!
I'm running Mandrake 8.1 on the lab rat. Downloaded the KDE3 rpm binaries for man8.1 and did the install. I can run kde3 from the console (runlevel 3) How ever even though kde3 appears in the kdm login screen I still get KDE2. If ths was COL I would know where to set things up. Oddly the Mandrake rpm's set up KDE3 in /opt, whereas KDE2 is in /usr. I suppose I can always boot into run_level 3 and start KDE3. I just don't like things half done. where do I set up kdm to see KDE3? -- Ted Ozolins (VE7TVO) Westbank, B.

Ah the joys of waiting.

Mandrake shutdown/segmentation fault
Sorry if this has been covered. I have a K6/2-300 system which (finally) runs well, but on shutdown segfaults, with the message Bad EIP value. I have found references to this problem (http://www.mail-archive.com/cooker@linux-mandrake.com/msg45447.html)--but none to a solution. The problem seems to be that the operating system (here Mandrake, 8.1) recognizes the motherboard based on its BIOS as one that will allow a software shutdown--when in fact it is not. (It is an AT motherboard, but ATX features are included in the BIOS.) This is a guess, based on the fact that it does it when shutdown to halt, but not rebooted. It is also confirmed by others who have made the same guess. Mandrake offers a possible solution, as 8.1 allows installation of either a 2.2.19 or 2.4.8 (default) kernel. One of the comments about the problem said it happened with a 2.4.8 kernel, but not a 2.4.5 one, but as a quick test I installed Mandrake 7.0, and it does it too. I suspect I could fix this by editing the script it runs on shutdown, but so far I have not found what that is. Can anyone suggest where I look?

I dare you to type your entire sendmail.cf file and _not_ make an error. With something as important as your sendmail.cf file, I wouldn't not use m4. Even a two-line change with sendmail.cf's bizarre syntax (talking about in the various rules sections) could be disastrous for your users. Learn to read and write rules if you want to, that's fine. But recreate your sendmail.cf with m4. If you _don't_ use m4, you've missed the point (and I'm glad I don't have a mail account on your server). Ciao, David A.

No reference (in years) to any material, I just remember how to do it. Could you look around and find something that looks similar? YES Is it plagiarism? NO Why not, it looks and reads like someone else's material? Because in the case of a cook-book recipe like the above where certain steps are involved, must be accomplished in a certain order, they will _always_ look like someone else's cookbook recipe to do exactly the same thing, copied or not. So in this case, plagiarism would be difficult if not impossible to prove as long as the _exact_ same words, punctuation, mispellings, aren't used. Although the below is plagarised from the above (because I'm reading and rewording slightly), it would not convince a judge: 1. create a partition with fdisk 2. format the partition with mke2fs -j 3. create a mountpoint with mkdir 4. mount the filesystem with mount But is there another way to do it? No (at least not correctly). Have I been to court? No. But I have discussed this with legal counsel. Why? I write one book for one author. I write another book with some chapters that cover some of the same material for another author. Can I copy from one book to another? NO! By rewriting the same material, am I plagiarising myself? Perhaps. The two texts can read substantially the same, but cannot be identical. If any two paragraphs from the two books are exactly the same, I could be open to a lawsuit. A pattern of several paragraphs that are identically worded would almost certainly net me major problems. Fiction is a lot easier to prove plagiarism than technical writing. (Just how many ways are there to screw in a light bulb?) You just need to say in good conscience that you did not copy someone else's work. Ciao, David A.

I'm not sure. Perhaps the translators can take their existing content and
simply "fit it into" the new page layout. Actually, this shouldn't be too
difficult to do.

probably not until we take the design live. I'd hate to see a translator have
to re-work the translation multiple times.

What if the submission agreement covers the liability of copyright infrongement. Holy cow, that would really be horrible. Will you submit something? Nah.. you won't take the risk. Also, I doubt whether these U-professors really know whether an old was actually an old idea repackaged. They couldn't possibly knew all old ideas. Seems that it's all about timing. If person A published an article first, he/she might sue anyone who made simliar article afterward.
