Sort of off-topic, but is that Nivek Ogre in your avatar? It looks like one of the getups he uses when performing live. Yes, it's from the Ain't It Dead Yet? video. :) I knew it! :D I've seen parts of it on YouTube, and I've listened to the album version about a million times. It's a shame they …

Regarding Jurassic Systems: are you sure that's CDE? Didn't Irix use it's own window manager on its interactive desktop? That doesn't look like the CDE I am used to, but then again CDE was supposed to be "Common". Yeah, it looks like I was wrong. Go ahead, try to play an encrypted DVD on Linux. I …

Maybe I'm just hanging out in the wrong forums, but enthusiasm for Linux on the desktop seems to be somewhat diminished as of late. Desktop Linux is pretty exciting these days due to Valve's involvement (Steam Machines & SteamOS). Gabe Newell said Linux is the future of gaming. That's what Linux …

I was using Arch Linux for several years on my (then) main desktop PC, playing "wined" games like Fallout 1 & 2, Half-Life, Max Payne or Neverwinter Nights. Good times. 😊
