A New Goal for Open Source

05/21/2008  
Relevance: 6.75
The attacking left forward fakes his body to the left as he gracefully slides to the right around his opponent. Dribbling carefully into position, he sizes up the Australian goalie, who, he recalls, tends to play a little aggressively to one side, especially in that last match against Italy. An opposing fullback closes in and the forward ducks the move, falling back slightly and eyeing the goalie's stance. Finally he sees his chance as the goalie shifts his weight – the forward takes the shot – he scores! The world championship is won by the challengers! The crowd goes wild…the photographers' bulbs flash…and the forward returns to the locker room, to find an electrical outlet into which he can plug himself to recharge his power cells.

Amarok 1.4.8 Fast Forward Again!

12/21/2007  
Relevance: 5.46
Amarok Headquarters reports yet again another release of the marvelous Amarok 1.4 'Fast Forward' series. Just like its predecessor, Amarok 1.4.8 fixes a fairly large amount of bugs, and therefore increases stability of Amarok's stable branch of development. Among the major improvements is the resolution of an issue that could, under some circumstances, cause a complete lockup during dynamic playback. Last.fm metadata fetching now also works with xine 1.1.8 and we made sure you can now also use your brand new iPods with your favourite music player.

Happy New Year - What's Ahead?

01/02/2007  
Relevance: 5.15
Are you glad that New Year only occurs once a year? Who wants to look back and forward on the same day? It's inevitable, I suppose.Lately, I have reflected a lot on my Linux career in contrast to other IT work and environments. Linux started in 1997 for me and encompassed about nine years. I have looked back and have looked forward to the year ahead. I certainly have plans and hope you do also. But before looking ahead at our plans, we might examine our personal history to give ourselves a context in which to view a future with full knowledge that the best laid plans often go astray.

Fedora 9 Xen pv_ops

02/29/2008  
Relevance: 5.13
What's this pv_ops business all about? Well, as Dan explained, for a long time we've been forward-porting Xensource's (now 2.6.18 based) kernel tree in an effort to try and have our Xen kernel not lag behind Fedora's bare-metal kernel. Now that the upstream kernel has gained the ability to run on Xen using pv_ops (but only as i386 DomU, currently) we've taken the decision to stop wasting our time forward porting Xensource's tree and put all our focus into improving the feature set of pv_ops based Xen.

Report: Moving Closer to 802.11n

08/28/2007  
Relevance: 4.67
Since our previous peek at the state of wireless networking in Linux, which is moving forward in an excellent fashion, the new unified Linux wireless stack (mac80211) has been accepted into the mainline 2.6.22 kernel. This is the new common base for all Linux wireless drivers. There are no drivers yet that use mac80211, but inclusion in the kernel is a huge step forward. Linux developers are hard at work porting old drivers and writing new ones, and this should attract participation from additional developers who now have a nice unified wireless networking stack to build on, instead of the previous mish-mash.

DRM File Restructuring For Linux 2.6.27

07/14/2008  
Relevance: 4.23
The Linux 2.6.26 kernel was released just hours ago, but it's now time to look forward to the next update due out later this year, the Linux 2.6.27 kernel. As a prerequisite to kernel-based mode-setting and TTM / GEM memory managers entering the mainline Linux kernel, David Airlie has reorganized the DRM (Direct Rendering Manager) source-code tree to present in a much cleaner hierarchy. As described by David in his mailing list message, "This contains a moving around of a lot of the DRM into a more Linux like tree and makes it a lot nicer going forward for merging new features." Rather than having a lot of different source files in very few directories, these files have been reorganized and so that the driver-specific code each has its own sub-directory...
