Ever since serving said sentence, I have been of the opinion that all
newly minted programmers should first serve time in the purgatory known
as "software maintenance programming." Only after getting an
appreciation for how hard it is to divine someone else's obscure code
should they be unleashed on the world and allowed to create their own
inscrutable incantations.
That being said, I probably do most of my current development in perl
which has been described as a "write only" language. I prefer to call
it the Swiss Army Knife of programming languages.

Re: Max usable disk space
by Jason Ragsdale
I wonder if that would affect me as i am planning on doing 1 raid
device at first, (the 4 300GB's) and making a LVM out of it. Then
adding another device later with the 4 500's and adding in the new LVM
drives into the current group. So i would have >2tb but it would be
spread across 2 raid devices and 8 disks.

Eclipse & Oracle10g-EE
by Ali Helmy
Hey,
I need to develop a software for a small company, but I really feel that I
want to make it all based on free-software... The software will include some
code (Duh) which I will write in Java, along with a DBMS...
So, I was thinking of using Eclipse for developing the software, and using
the new free Oracle 10g-Express
Edition<http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/xe/index.html>as
the DBMS...
Have any of you tried this combination before? I think I'm settled about
using Eclipse to develop the software, but how about the DBMS? Suggestions?

KDE desktop email and konqueror
by Edward Beranek
Howdy,
I installed the complete set for KDE in FC4,w/patches,
along with the development set.
Switched over to KDE and set up kmail and konqueror.
Tried to install a certificate in kmail and it indicated
that the chiasmus software was missing. Checked konqueror
and it essentially gave an error. Dug a little deeper,
and found that libkleopatra was available, but apparently
no crypto plugin was available to allow use of certificates
in either program.
Is the crypto plugin available for KDE?

Memory requirements for graphical install
by Alan
I think the numbers need to change on the amount of memory required to
install Fedora Core 4.
Doing an "install everything" in graphical mode on a 256meg machine fails
with out of memory errors. (It seems to ignore the swap space at that
point, thinking it has enough memory.)
Text install of "everything" works fine on the same machine.
