New poll on ecomstation.ru site:

What is the height of RPM barrier?

ecomstation.ru/poll.php

The goal of the poll - investigate the attitude of the users to RPM installer for eComStation.

(Don't forget input anti-spam 6-digits CODE: below the list of answers on the page of voting)

Large runtimes were packed to RPM format (Odin, Qt4 runtime).

The development of this runtimes/libraries required huge financial resources.

Some users report that it's not easy to install programs packed to RPM.

(the user must download RPM stuff, learn RPM, contact the maintainers of RPM

to complete the installation, os2world.com forum -- www.os2world.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,63/topic,3701.msg21709/topicseen,1/ )

As result less users can install new

versions of the runtimes. The resources were spent,

but not all users can test the results.

Previous versions of the runtimes were packed to WarpIn

and installation was easy and fast.

Seems that RPM is a barrier for the users.

Attention! We are going publish all comments (All emails will be hidden).

What is the height of RPM barrier?

* it's not a barrier

* 1 cm, 5 cm, I can jump over

* 1 meter, 2 meters, I can use a ladder

* 5 meters, I can't overcome the barrier, please pack to WarpIn format

Paul Smedley has had a number of requests for support for HP scanners, which actually have very good support under linux using the HPLIP driver.

In order for there to be a possibility of him solving the problems, he would need to purchase suitable hardware. Something like the HP Photosmart 7510 which is recommended for use with HPLIP. If you want to help support this project please use the link below. Paul estimates the cost at $A229 (approx $US250) and has collected $50US so far. See his HPLIP page for more information. -

Hello bootAble users,

Sorry for bothering you again this soon, but I've released another minor update to bootAble :-)
You can download it from our personal website: hrbaan.home.xs4all.nl/bootAble/

* Fixed |bootAble.firefox| for version >4 (Doug Bissett for the fix);
* Always checking JFS boot disk now (Doug Bissett for the tip);
* Added additional |gcc| library files (Doug Bissett for the fix);
* Added |MEDISKVOLUMELABEL| option to specify the name of the MEMDISK
image, defaults to |bootAbleMD| (Steven Levine for the tip);
* Determined |pnp.sys| as a |SNOOPFILE| (Steven Levine for the
investigating this).

Have a good time,
Hayo
