I was a Banshee user for about 9 months or so. That end
I was going to suggest Exaile, but at the moment it has a memory leak
that gets worse as it plays more music (it was taking up 800 MB!). I
know that I do not like Rhythmbox's layout or playlist functionality.
I like Amarok better than RB, but Ama doesn't detect my media keys on
my laptop like RB do

No Banshee by default please. Apart from Mono dependencies, its memory
consumption is much higher than Rhythmbox and Audio players are always run
in the background when the user is actually doing some other work on the
system. Wasting RAM on media player is not a good idea.
Apart from that, RB i

No. Rhythmbox can write to iPods just fine.

There is a rhythmbox plugin for this included in the default Hardy install.
If rhythmbox is kept, perhaps there should be a look at enabling it by
default.

Since F-Spot is installed by default Mono is now part of the base
install. So outside of all the debate around Mono, have we considered
installing Banshee as the default media player in Intrepid now that
Banshee 1.0 is released?
There are a couple of positives to using Banshee by default over Rhy
I guess Novell has some sort of protection through the deal. Because from
what I had read somewhere, there was no mention of Mono in deals wiht others
like Linspire and Xandros but the Novell deal did mention it.
And I have the same doubt as you. Especially the non-ecma parts like Mono's

Sorry for dropping in.
Has there been any mention of Microsoft that they will never, ever sue
anyone who uses Mono nor the Mono developers themselves, or is this all
under the Novell/Microsoft convenant? If they never made such a statement,
on what else than pure hope that they will never litigate
Hi,
I'm not sure I'm on the correct list here.
I'm trying to setup a customized CD for future installations on a large
number of computers. During the installation, I'll have no network, so I
can only depend on CD.
Basicly, I:
- copied the original Xubuntu CD on disk
- added a preseed file und
Yup much better!! But it is more than an year. :D
Also, Java has a much more evolved open-source ecosystem around it. All
those extremely high quality Apache projects. Of course, Java tops among
Sourceforge projects too. It is really unfortunate that Hardy is not
shipping with Java. But yes

OK, fine, it's in the same boat that Java was in a year ago. Better?

No Java is not in the same boat as .Net. There is no open-source version of
.Net released by Microsoft. .Net as a framework is still a proprietary
product of Microsoft. They are letting Mono survive only because of their
Embrace, Extend and Extinguish scheme.
Not so with Java. There is an offi

Dear Mark Fink
I would like you to reconsider your concept of Open Source and the
reason why you are using Linux. You don't seem to understand the
philosophy behind free software.
Foss is all about choice so if you don't like it here you can very well
use OpenBSD or anything else, but you *NEVER*

Sure. I'd like to talk about the issue of people who interpret the word

I don't see what the problem is to solving his dilemma. Whining and
moaning every time someone's binary is placed into code is ridiculous.
Ubuntu still leaves plenty of space and SUPPORT for FULLY OPEN
