Myth? Why are you so upset about this? It's not myth. The techniques involved in recovering data in the manner Marco and the NSA, DoD, and many others describe isn't a matter of running a simple software tool. It's a long, slow, annoying process that is also costly. But it is possible. Not every c

I was running OpenBSD on my new Thinkpad T60. Work requires me to run Windows, so it was dual boot. For the most part, things worked well, but several issues prevented me from retaining it. One is that my model was widescreen, and the console text was rather stretched. Not a huge issue, but it did

My new Thinkpad T60 laptop has the same issue as well, with an ATI video card. I don't mind a stretched console font, but the display was stretched, and nothing I did fixed it. I tried everything in the thread to no avail. It was largely unusable, personally, because the stretched fonts were hard t

I currently have a Thinkpad T60. I use OpenBSD with it, and it has the exact same graphics card, the ATI Mobility Radeon X1400. However, I have widescreen, and I was unable to use my laptop's native resolution of 1680x1050, and the stretched alternatives was, to me, largely unusable, or at least ha

I'm just a lurker on the OpenBSD list, but I think Charles is right about Linux. The code is better then people give it credit for, and considering it's vast popularity and what all it's accomplished, the "bazaar" model has worked wonders. I'm not advocating Linux, I'm just pointing out that consid

I just purchased an Acer 3624WXCi laptop, and I discovered that OpenBSD does not recognize the built-in wireless adapter. I want to purchase a well-supported, quality wireless card, but I have been unable to find enough information on this. Does anybody have any recommendations for a well-supported

Your "freedom" is forced. Companies and individuals have no choice in the matter, because it's required by the license. We have the freedom to vote, but we aren't forced to do so. You don't seem to realize that it's not freedom if it's forced at the end of a proverbial GPL gun. On 10/5/06, Han Boe

I only use OpenBSD nowadays. I'll toy with other operating systems, but I generally just stick to OpenBSD. It suits all of my needs. I can never remember speed being a huge issue. I wish there was better SMP support, and in your situation I'd also be wishing for better RAID support. The work so far
