    oh god, it seems NTC's been taken over by kiddies waiting to start a flame war. thanks but no thanks. in response to Wicked101's question reguarding the gmail invites, i like to get rid of them for the same reason people climb mountains, cause they are there, out of all honesty i'd much rather google send me a frickin tshirt or something useful rather than bundle after bundle of invitations, considering that people are emailing and requesting like hotcakes...apparently some think they are still "exclusive" as Malaris has stated. Although i wasn't aware gmail was a status symbol...then OR now. so if you don't want a gmail invite, don't f.uckin reply, its a waste of space.

     

     

    ATTN mods: might as well lock and close this thread, i can see where its going.

    who hasn't had one forever, but the fact remains, i got 50 and need to get rid of them, so if you got a sibling, or a spouse...family member or pet that wants one, send me an email and i'll hook anyone up.

    Linux is great, Gentoo's Portage system based off of FreeBSD's ports system makes the whole thing easier than any other linux i have tried, i originally installed it on a celeron 500, 256mb pc66, and 8.4gb hdd system, to my surprise, kde 3.1.4 (most recent at the time)ran very smooth with all the pretty gui effects, even better than it ran with winxp. sound is a problem sometimes, the best all around card i can suggest is a type of sound blaster live card, the kernel drivers (oss) work great with it, ALSA works great too with 2.6 but some games and apps had problems with the ARTS+ALSA combination. For video cards i'd say use an ATI Radeon 8500 or higher or any NVidia card, dialup modems are a joke and i have only been able to get the crappy pctel winmodems to work (figures since they worked like crap in windows). the 2.6 kernel is, IMHO, way better in terms of drivers and support than the 2.4 series, the 2.6 kernel even comes with support for a modded xbox usb controller and various usb lcds. laptop support is much better as it now supports better power management options and features. give linux a shot, you won't regret it, the command line is easy after you learn a few basic commands and filesystem structure, i actually tend to rely on the command line more than the gui, why click 20 or so times when i can type two commands to do the same thing.

    hey hey hey, whats with the linux bashing people, i have never had a problem with linux, Clutch suggested i try Gentoo-Linux a while back, been using it ever since with no probs, i finally gave up on windows for the most part, i still keep a box running for a few games that i can't play in linux well or at all. i find it much more simple to use than windows, the first month was the crucial time when i was going insane, but i can do just about anything windows can do, except play a few games of my liking. Try switching to Linux for a month or two, try Gentoo-Linux, you might find that you like it more than windows.

    having problems with a ps/2 version of a microsoft intellimouse (ball), no matter what type of mouse i install it as it still acts wierd.

     

    here's the story...

     

    everytime i restart the computer, i get back to the logon screen and the mouse goes ape-shit, i unplug it and plug it back in, it works fine....well, almost...the scroll wheel doesn't. but i hate having to constantly unplug/replug it due to wear and tear on the ps/2 port. thanks in advance.

     

     

    Running Redhat Linux 8.0, Kernel 2.4.18-14, KDE 3 on an i686

     

    P.S. fonts look like sh1t in mozilla, if my spelling sucks, blame it on sh1tty fonts.

    my friend and i are runnin a dedicated ut2003 server on a winxp pro box, now we want to allow ANYONE to join this server, people with legal copies and people with stolen copies as well, Stat Tracking is enabled for the server, how can i change the settings to allow people with illegal cd key's to join and stay for more than 2 minutes without being disconnected by the master server? do i have to turn Stat tracking off?

     

    Servername is:

    martinsburg/hedgesville/cable

     

    Servertype is:

    Deathmatch/Dedicated

     

     

    BTW, i am using the full Dedicated Server which i got from www.unrealtournament2003.com

     

    Thanks.

     

    P.S. Please feel free to join this server, my friend (GreatShoGun), thinks he's the shizznit with the lightning gun, so come stomp his a.ss.
