Have you tried anything else?

I find it quite funny that a "modern" web browser needs an add-on to block content from a predefined list of urls.

You dual booting *nix? ATI cards suck (though drivers are getting better) on linux...

>ill take a look at Acceralted C++ - i dont like the "in 21 days" books - the only one of them which i ever got on with was the SQL one, that was excellent I bought accelerated c++ a few months (I think) ago and it is awesome. Unlike …

I would recommend Arch Linux, as it is i686 compiled and relatively simple. Here are some links on the philosophies of Arch: [url]http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/The_Arch_Way[/url] [url]http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_vs_Others[/url] [url]http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/FAQ[/url]

[code=bash] #!/bin/sh while [ 1 ] do cat $1; sleep 1; clear done [/code]

Yeah... new kernels seem to work wonders on laptops...

Well... what seems to be wrong with these 2 lines: [code=c++] long double b; getFib(b); [/code]

I got 1,348,720! um..no offence dude, but you kind of suck.

>Can anyone else confirm this with the Opera web browser? Also, are you using the latest version? Thanks! I'm also experiencing this problem. In fact, Daniweb seems thoroughly broken with Opera. Here's a list of some of the problems (Opera on Linux of course): 1) Quick reply button doesn't work …

I like to read, program, and play chess. I also like to fence and play nethack.

Your position is completely indefensible and just as equally asinine. Not only is your position so ridiculous and inane, but your presented argument is extremely weak. Do you realize how much work farming requires? Do you realize the poverty and deprivation an agrarian society creates? (for most that is) >How …

Your best bet probably would be to learn how to interact with X11 by learning some xlib functions. Xdm would provide a good and simple base.

>There's a lot of talk about drugs here of late (kinda). Did anyone ever play this game - [url]http://www.geekhideout.com/druglord2.shtml[/url] It's pretty amusing!! I've actually played the non graphical version before. Pretty easy to beat...

I got 4th born too... guess it's because I'm obnoxious ;-) (I'm actually first)

Define human enhancements. Surely you aren't arguing against using tools?

Were you using devpaks? If not, I suggest you try it as generally it's quite easy to install devpak libraries. [url]http://devpaks.org/category.php?category=SDL[/url]

I take it you're from Australia?

get a real distro, debian should be good for you. And yes you will be. Debian and some other distros do not include that much proprietary software in their repositories. So you might have to get it manually.

[code=c++] for ( int c = 7; c < i; c += 2) cout << c << "\n"; [/code]

First of all, you should use classes. In addition to this you should use vectors instead of strings. And third, you should make your program platform inpedendent. This means not using [inlinecode] system() [/inlinecode]. What's wrong with this? [code=c++] void game() { //this is just an example string userInput; speak(You, …

Are you using ext2? Well anyway, boot up with a livecd mount the drive and fsck it.

You might want to try [inlinecode] lsusb [/inlinecode]

I don't believe so, but there is a[URL="http://hpgcc.org/"] C compiler[/URL] for the hp-50g (A much superior calculator if I may interject my own opinion)

Let me guess: Your using visual c++ 6 and some subpar textbook that uses outdated headers. The class is taught by some loser who is too stupid to get a real job actually programming. In fact judging by the time of year, you are on Chapter 2 which is titled …

I used to play runescape. Seriously if you are looking for a good online mmorpg thats free play achaea its the [B]most indepth game I have ever played in my life.[/B] it may be text based but it is still awesome. Note: roleplaying is a requirement, thats what makes it …

lol totally not dorky. And how does knowing random crap about star wars make you a nerd? (It just makes you a idiot)

> dont get why you need Vista, a kickass pc and a mega-expensive DirectX 10 graphics card to play Halo2 on vista (which is being hailed as a big thing, wtf is that about, its an OLD game!) when it plays on my cheap Xbox from like 5 years ago …

You need to seed rand.[inlinecode] srand (time(0)) [/inlinecode] ( it uses ctime I think so include that)

Um just wondering iamthwee but why are you speaking like a newb?

Airline homework problem? Whats that?

[quote=hbk619] But I had a brain wave, web development- doesn't need maths [/quote] I was always under the impression that web developers were laughed [URL="http://lukewelling.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/08/programmer%20hierarchy.gif"]at[/URL] by "real" programmers. (oh and whats A level math? Calculus?)

Bah.. whats the point nothin' ffmpeg can't handle ;-)

What's a MVP?

The minimize, close, and maximize butttons are on the wrong side btw.

You don't know what distribution you're using? Please tell me you didn't install Linux yourself.

To change it look in ~/.bashrc. It should have an entry that looks like this [inlinecode] PS1='\u \w\# ' [/inlinecode]. Change it too [inlinecode] PS1='[\u@\h \w] \# ' [/inlinecode]

Try replacing /dev/input/mice with /dev/psaux.

I used to make CAD models (with anim8r) and flash movies (not since wine stopped working...haven't got around to installing vmware), but thats about all...

Like Infarction said, Makefiles are the way to go if you do not have/want an IDE. Personally I think IDEs are awful and a scourge to programming but thats just my opinion ;-) I usually just have a Makefile and use Emacs.

[inlinecode] rm *.<extension> [/inlinecode]

I have an hp dv6000t and I have been able to get everything working with a little work. The biggest hurdle was the webcam but it was remedied with a few hours of googling. So what doesn't work?

>guarantee you this stupid kid never served in the military or knows what it takes to guarantee his right to free speech And invading other counties guarantees our right to free speech how?

Use emacs.

And this has to do with Window and Desktop Managers how?

just wondering for no particular reason if my linux box has less or more packages and commands then most (I'm guessing less). Heres my results: packages (on arch linux probably not a very good way to determine anything): 238 commands: 1169 as root and 1168 as a normal user. du: …

Can you ping a website? ([inlinecode] ping [url]www.google.com[/url] [/inlinecode])

a virtual machine seems _a lot_ easier and _a lot_ more safe.
