1) I know that some of the the MAC addresses given by tcpdump are
invalid. Is this a bug? In what?
Nope. The addresses (with mostly zeroes) are like IP addressses with many
zeroes or '255' - they handle concepts like "broadcast" or "me".
Huh? It's a vanilla unicast IP datagram over
On the other hand, they make excellent mice. The mouse wheel and
the new optical mice are truly innovative and Microsoft should be
commended for them.
The wheel was a nifty idea, but I've seen workstations 15 years old with
optical mice. It wasn't MS's idea.

You know XOR is patented (yes, the logical bit operation XOR).
But wasn't that Xerox that had that?
US Patent #4,197,590 held by NuGraphics, Inc.
The patent was for using the technique of using XOR for dragging/moving
parts of a graphics image without erasing other parts.

Can anybody say "Beowulf cluster"? I bet you need a W2K license for every
box you hook up, too.

Indeed - remember the PowerMac G3 (blue & white) and the "Yikes" G4 have a

I just installed Urban's most recent patch, and I still get much the same

I don't get corruption with the BIOS "normal" settings (1004D).

There are lots of SI units, one for each physical dimension that can be

No good - nothing actually changes except 16 bits at 0x6C, and that doesn't
change to anything useful.

I have a D-Link DFE-530TX Rev A, PCI ethernet card, but it refuses
to work.
I have looked at http://www.scyld.com/network/index.html#pci
