Since Linux systems support also the JPEG format, it is reasonable to be
concerned about libraries which implement it.
So I ask if anyone knows whether there is a buffer overrun vulnerability
also in the Linux implementations of JPEG code.

If you want a really minimal cd, download the netboot installer cd,
which
contains only the base system. then you can download just the

want. Otherwise, the first cd is a good choice

During the last few months, I noticed that the first thing, which people
notice about my Linux installations, is the screensaver.
Turns out that Linux provides much richer repertoire of screensavers
than MS-Windows.
So even now, in the coolness factor, Linux vs. MS-Windows score is 1:0.

Testing packages, for installation on PCs.
So, I found

One thing which I do not understand:
Why use Java at all in a system, which needs to handle hundreds or

to be invested in optimizing thread handling by using C/C++ implementation?
