Linux Outlaws Forums

Some fresh food for my rockbox. wgetting it now.

Hope you enjoy the episode guys, my attempts to make it a bit closer to an hour in length were futile, almost an hour in and we were just finishing Microwatch We just can't shut up it seems

Off to remind myself of what I said this time before someone has a go at me

There is a few project working on versioning file systems in linux using FUSE

http://apps.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/f ... ileSystems

Some of them use cvs,svn and git but most of those are read only.

You cut it down a bit though. Very nice editing!

Oh, cool. Thanks! I'll check it out. And welcome to the forums!

Fab, you mentioned Ubuntu's problem with settings being restarted upon reboot. This was a major problem for me last week. This is a HUGE bug in Ubuntu. Well, as I see it anyway.

The latest version of Network Manager installed with 8.10 does not save static IP info and reverts backto DHCP when you reboot. After hours of Google searches and threads on the Ubuntu forums, I got one common fix. Uninstall Network Manager and manual config the network device file. WTF!?! I mean come on. Static IPs are the backbone for most companies and a must. It's not like it's some new technology. It's as old as Linux. This was the major reason I downgraded to Hardy from Intrepid.

Oh thanks, I didn't cut that much really but I tried to make it a bit leaner yes, only the best survives hehehe

Well, I was specifically talking about it forgetting the mounted net shares in Gnome. Didn't notice the other stuff.

About network-manager: That is nm's fault then, really... Also, who still uses static IPs? To manage that at a company level is a bloody nightmare!!!

Great episode guys, as always! Thank you so much for reviewing CrunchBang. To be honest, both Becky and I were a little hesitant to listen to it, but luckily you guys were both very kind. I cannot tell you how relieved I was not to hear any crap alerts!

I have posted a link to the episode and your forums on the blog. I am not sure anyone reads it, but hopefully it will send a few more listeners your way.

Thank you again and keep up the good work!
