| Controlling Linux colors in vi (vim) | 2005 03 | 2011/04/13 geedoubleya | |||
| - The Linux colorizing fouls things up royally. You can shut off command line colorizing by editing /etc/DIR_COLORS and changing COLOR tty to COLOR none or (less drastically) by removing the TERM ansi line from the same file (which removes colorization for ansi but doesn't affect console use). But that still leaves vi messing things up. The fix for that is to add - | |||||

| Openserver 5.0.5 and gigabit controllers | 2006 02 | ||||

Look at ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/drivers/ and check with the manufacturer. If you can find a driver, great. If not, you are out of luck, though it's quite possible that a driver listed as 5.0.6 *might* work on your older version. - | |||||

| Open Document | 2005 10 | ||||
| - It seems there's a on-going campaign by Microsoft's surrogates in the media to spread FUD about Massachusetts' announcement that they will use OpenDocument from 2007. For example, it's been claimed that taxpayers' money will be wasted on converting old documents, whereas Massachusetts specifically said that the decision would only apply to new documents. Several other false claims have also been made - with the aim, one can only suppose, of inducing F, U, and D. The truth is Redmond hasn't a leg to stand on in this controversy and we should expect to see many more lies in future: - | |||||
