Linux Playstation 2

sapiens74

That is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Examples: 1. I just bought a memory card for my Ps2 and I need instructions on recompiling the kernel 2. How do I mount the GTA3 CD 3. What's the command to start a game? 4.

Geek code blocks

felix

Why is it that we do not see many Geek code blocks anymore? The last one I saw was attached to a Unix Guru's email sig. I think they are a great way of confusing users/lamers. .

Wireless Technology

2. 4GHz Wireless Technology is one of the best features the Xcam2 has. Picture quality is razor sharp. Other features are also outstanding. If you don’t ascribe to my views, go. .

Verizon = Hell on Earth

Atreyu

I need an outlet, and I thought the other forum at NTCompatible would be a fitting place. . How else to describe my rage towards Verizon other than to say they are without competition, the most unorganized, poorly-managed, incompetent, selfish, deceiving, and careless company I’ve ever dealt with.

Mousy Question

pbuckne

What do you think the coolest gaming mouse would be? Doesn't have to exist yet. For me, I would want it to combine the purported accuracy of the Wingman with the A4tech (yes, A4tech) four button, two scroll wheel mouse, and the Logitech Ifeel model.

Apple

Just wanted to know what your opinion of Apple is. I used to have a passionate hate for Mac users but I think Apple has really made some great contributions to the home pC experience. I thought I 'd never say that.

Turn an IBM Travelstar Drive into a Protable Firewire Drive

dcxman

Hi guys. I just upgraded my laptop hard drive and now have a 10GB IBM Travelstar Drive (DJSA-210) left over. instead of letting it gather dust on my shelf or go through the headaches of selling it on EBAY, I was wondering if it was possible to pick up a small firewire drive casing for this Travelstar.

Speaker recommendations?

AndyFair

OK - I've decided it's time to update my PC speakers from the 2 poxy little things that sit beside my monitor. So what do you guys use? Any recommendations. Cost not so much of an issue - I'd rather pay decent money for something that sounds good and lasts a few years rather than go the cheap and cr@ppy route.

What keyboard do you use?

pmistry

Might be a silly question, but I just want to know. On my Athlon system I still use a Honeywell 101-key AT keyboard which I had first had with my 486, then used it with my Pentium, and now I am using it my Athlon.

From what you have heard/read, what do you guys think about Lindows? For those of you that don't know, it's an operating system in development which will be able to run both Linux and Windows apps.

v.44 modems

mchila

Anybody have any info on these v. 44 modems I'm hearing about? Someone recommended shotgunning two of these as an alternative to Adelphia Cable as they are not signing any new customers in my area and don't have any idea when they might.
