Looks like the new GLX_EXT_buffer_age extension has landed in the 313.09 beta drivers. From what I understand, if the composited window managers implement this mechanism, it should really improve tearing issues. I think GNOME and Kwin are already working on it.
It would be nice to resolve this problem once and for all.
Though now that undirect fullscreen windows is working well in compiz, I haven't noticed tearing in fullscreen games anymore.

A biracial fellow who lies about his job, steals Star Wars toys, and jerks off on other people's keyboards. He's also eight inches hung. Wow!
I can't believe Hasani stood me up!

It is with great sorrow and sadness that the SOMENA region mourns one of its finest leaders of all times. HRH Princess Lalla Amina, Chairwoman of Special Olympics Morocco and member of the SO International Advisory Committee passed away on August 16th 2012, as announced by the Moroccan government.
Princess Lala Amina with the Special Olympics Morocco athletes.
President of the Moroccan League for Child Protection since 1975, HRH Lalla Amina studied philosophy and shared perfect fluency in French, English and Arabic.
Throughout her life, HRH dedicated herself to advocate children's rights, working relentlessly on passing legislations and laws ensuring them.
In 1999, and after a long span of her life was spent in taking much interest in sports, especially equestrian, HRH chaired the Royal Moroccan Federation for Equestrian Sports, leading her country's teams to remarkable achievements on all levels.
In its statement, Special Olympics expressed deep sorrow over the passing of HRH Lalla Amina describing it as "a great loss the international movement would have to suffer as an aftermath of losing one of its greatest supporters."
The statement also highlighted the two-term period during which HRH chaired the SOMENA Regional Advisory Council and her membership of the SO International Advisory Council as being one of the region's most glorious times.
Pointing out HRH's office as a chairwoman of the SO Morocco during which the Moroccan program has made a vast leap sports wise reflected in holding numerous local and international events and in Morocco, the statement has also paid tribute to the remarkable royal figure's earnest devotion to enhancing the performance of SO Morocco's athletes which enabled them to offer their country substantial achievements at local, regional and international levels.
Special Olympics transforms athletes' lives through the joy of sport. Help us make a difference.
Volunteering with Special Olympics is fun and very rewarding, for both the athlete and the volunteer!
Stay in touch! See inspiring stories, photos and videos in our Special Olympics newsletter.
Today, the Templeton Foundation gave its most prestigious award to my hero, Jean Vanier. For Linda and our children and me, he has also been our retreat leader, our teacher of humility, our guide.

I had no problems with a $5 converter and DamnSmallLinux;
(Wtf I just replied and its not showing up?)
You sure that IDE-CF adapter works? I got some off ebay that suck.
Not all converters support DMA: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/24/46
Find one that works with DMA and performance will probably be better.
This is also why M0n0wall disables DMA by default, too many problems with CF cards when the kernel tries to use DMA.
I had no problems with a $5 converter and DamnSmallLinux;
I'm gonna be giving DSL a try here soon. I saw the new release of Sabayon, gonna try that out as well.
Where did you buy your CF converter from? Can you point me to the webstore? I'd like to try one of the ones you have considering you've verified higher transfer rates than 6.5MB, and they're dirt cheap anyways. :-P If at all possible, I'd like to rule out the converter itself as the reason why I'm not getting the transfer rates that I should be getting.
I especially like that female one for the fact that it looks like it would just plug in directly into the motherboard, I wouldn't have to worry about the IDE cable and mounting issues.(see my pics for reference)
Last edited by halfmanhalfamazing; 08-01-2007 at 11:47 AM.
It looks like we will be doing a comparison with a CF converter at Phoronix shortly. Just waiting on the CF card(s) to arrive.
A couple of things worthy of note. I've had several people ask me in various places if I'm worried about the lifespan of my new device.
Not really:
Add to that AMD's new technology, hyperflash. Using a Flash/NAND device as a cache buffer.
This is a beautiful thread.
The Intel Desktop Board D201GLY is a powerful, almost complete
computer for $70, aimed at Intel's "next billion customers."
As others have also noted on the web, it cries out to have dozens
assembled into a cheap supercomputer, e.g. a Linux Beowulf cluster.
Just need memory and a drive, per board, supply them all power, and
network them through a switch.
I was thinking USB pen drives, till I found this thread.
On the other hand, USB pen drives would save on the conversion
hardware, and wouldn't matter after booting if one then used a RAM
You're in a whole different territory than I am.
If you're running a cluster, then they would all be a slave to the primary computer, correct?
You'd only need a high performance setup on the primary computer.
I'd probably just go with pendrives, you can get them for 10 dollars each(256mb) off of pricewatch.
Glad I could offer you a possible alternative though. :-)
I'm hoping that CF can improve Linux memory swapping perfomance.
Here are some links re: DMA support:
IDE Compact Flash Adapter with Mounting Plate
Which Compact FLASH cards support DMA?
With a new pc with usb boot support you can directly use USB sticks for linux. Little ones with 1/2 GB are enough to run a Linux livesystem (compressed), bigger ones can hold even a hd install. The install onto usb is a bit tricky, but possible. The sticks that work have usually a 512 byte sector size, one 2 GB stick I have got has 2048 sector size - that does not work. There is a simple check for it:
blockdev --getss /dev/XXX
Older pc can be used to boot from a cd with kernel/initrd stored on it and root fs on usb. And there are much faster usb sticks than 6 mb/s...

US tax dollars must not finance $1bn Great Barrier Reef destruction!
The Ecologist
20th February 2015
A powerful call has gone out the the US Export-Import Bank not to finance a massive coal mine, railway, port terminal and dredged 'canal' through Australia's Great Barrier Reef with $1 billion in loans and guarantees. more...Don't move a mussel - a tiny invader is threatening our water and wildlife
Yannic Rack
18th February 2015
The zebra and quagga mussels, exotic invaders from the Caspian, are already causing huge damage in North America by 'biofouling' and disrupting native ecosystems, writes Yannic Rack. And now Britain is having to gear up for an impending invasion that threatens a costly meltdown of our aquatic biodiversity. more...Five to 12 million tonnes of plastic are going into the ocean each year
Britta Denise Hardesty & Chris Wilcox
4th April 2015
An unimaginably large volume of plastic debris is reaching the world's oceans every year, write Britta Denise Hardesty & Chris Wilcox - and it's set for a ten-fold increase over the next decade, adding to the already terrible toll on marine life from turtles to seals, sea birds and fish. The solution must be to give waste plastic value - if we can find a way. more...We need safe havens for our ocean giants!
Dr Lissa Batey
2nd March 2015
'Ocean giants' in our coastal waters are increasingly rare, writes Dr Lissa Batey, thanks to a host of threats from pollution to entrapment in fishing gear. Marine Protected Areas in England and Wales could help restore our cetaceans to their former abundance - but so far, only one has been designated for these species in Wales, and none in England. more...Government reneges on 'no fracking' promise
Oliver Tickell
5th February 2015
The latest version of the Infrastructure Bill released today has been amended to avoid defining the areas that will be protected from fracking, leaving that to 'regulations' to be pushed through after the general election. So if the Tories win, get ready for fracking everywhere! more...Pickles must protect Rampisham Down SSSI from solar farm
Martin Harper
5th February 2015
An ancient grassland SSSI at Rampisham could be saved following a government decision to put an 'hold' notice on the West Dorset Council's planning consent for a huge solar farm, writes Martin Harper. Now Eric Pickles must 'call in' the case to a public inquiry, or set a truly dreadful precedent for our most precious nature sites. more...India's indigenous evictions - the dark side of the Jungle Book
Tom Linton
6th February 2015
While the world gears up for Jungle Book fever, something sinister is afoot in the forests of India, writes Tom Linton. No, not Shere Khan, but zealous officials illegally evicting indigenous communities from their ancestral forests in the name of 'conservation' - and to make way for tiger tourism. And it's happening across India putting millions of people under threat. more...Devon's beavers will stay wild and free

Thomas Snitch
3rd February 2015
Using new technologies to take on poaching in Africa is reaping big dividends, writes Thomas Snitch. Where drones are deployed as part of an integrated package of measures, poachers quickly give up. The trouble is, they move to other unprotected locations. So we must extend the program to all of Africa's most at-risk areas. more...Red alert! Hornbills at risk from wildlife trade
The Ecologist

We all know about the risk to elephants and rhinos from the illegal wildlife trade, but now the helmeted hornbills of Borneo and Sumatra are at risk as online traders find ready buyers for their carved beaks in China. more...Fail - 2014 badger cull didn't kill enough badgers to be effective
Rosie Woodroffe
20th January 2015
Sneaked out just before Christmas, Defra's assessment of the 2014 badger cull inspired NFU leaders to claim 'success', writes Rosie Woodroffe. But the figures indicate the precise reverse: that too few badgers were killed to be effective against bovine TB, indeed the cull may even help to spread the disease. more...Legal challenge puts coal mining's climate blame on trial
Samantha Hepburn
21st January 2015
A legal challenge has been launched against what would be Australia's biggest coal mine, writes Samantha Hepburn. If it succeeds, all future coal mine assessments will have to include the impacts of the resulting CO2 emissions on Australia's most important nature sites, such as the Great Barrier Reef. more...

Elizabeth Claire Alberts
6th February 2015
Aerial surveillance is a proven and effective technique in tackling wildlife crime, writes Elizabeth Claire Alberts - so the arrival on the scene of a new wildlife organization dedicated to providing air reconnaissance services to frontline environmental defenders couldn't come too soon. more...Burnable: peat bogs' 850bn tonnes of carbon
Tim Radford
12th January 2015
Human exploitation of peatlands has led to some of the biggest fires on Earth, including one in Indonesia that released 2.5 Gt of carbon, writes Tim Radford. A new study calculates that the world's peatlands contain almost a trillion tonnes of carbon at growing risk of burning. more...Who are the real 'eco-terrorists' on America's public lands?
George Wuerthner
27th January 2015
Ranchers can deliberately abuse public land and the wildlife that lives on it at will, writes George Wuerthner, confident that any breaches of the law are likely to be overlooked. But it's another thing altogether if you're trying to protect that land from destructive exploitation. Why the double standard? more...Monarchs may win 'endangered species' protection

gene productOR2V1P, OST265
Olfactory receptors interact with odorant molecules in the nose, to initiate a neuronal response that triggers the perception of a smell. The olfactory receptor proteins are members of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) arising from single coding-exon genes. Olfactory receptors share a 7-transmembrane domain structure with many neurotransmitter and hormone receptors and are responsible for the recognition and G protein-mediated transduction of odorant signals. The olfactory receptor gene family is the largest in the genome. The nomenclature assigned to the olfactory receptor genes and proteins for this organism is independent of other organisms.

Sure, but you probably won't get enough volume for a classroom of 20 people or more. Other wireless speakers deliver more volume. The Zooka's advantage is that it's extremely compact, about the size of an empty cardboard core for a roll of paper towels.

This ARM Cortex-A9 would be great for a nettop, netbook, and chromebook or chrometop.
Phoronix: The ARM Cortex-A9 Can Beat Out The Intel Atom
Here's some interesting test results recently uploaded to OpenBenchmarking.org that compares the performance of ARM Cortex A8 and Cortex A9 cores running at 1.0GHz against an Intel Atom N450. All three systems running at 1.0GHz were also running Gentoo Linux. Clock-for-clock, can the latest-generation ARM Cortex-A9 take out the Intel Atom? For the most part, yes.
This ARM Cortex-A9 would be great for a nettop, netbook, and chromebook or chrometop.
They are already used in nettops, netbooks and chromebooks :P
Tegra 3 with its quad-core @ up to 1.7GHz should be a viable Atom replacement for sure.
Give my Transformer Prime a decent Ubuntu distro and let's see what happens.
Running multi-threaded benchmarks on a top of the line dual-core ARM setup then declaring that it is amazingly superior to an UNDERCLOCKED SINGLE CORE ATOM FROM ALMOST 3 YEARS AGO is not exactly showing that Intel is about to go out of business.
Larabel *repeatedly* misrepresents the N450 calling it a "dual core" processor. It is *not* dual core but is a single core + HT chip. He could have spent 5 seconds using this new thing called "Google" to go here: http://ark.intel.com/products/42503 and get a full product page describing the N450 that *clearly* shows it is a single core chip. I'd love to see the A9's "beating" the N450 with only one core....
Clock speed is useless, too.
Compare something relevant, like power consumption or price.
Well the benchmark is a bit useless because a atom n450 usually runs with 1.66 ghz. so the cortex cpu needs first a higher clockspeed to match the atom. btw. there are also quad core atoms out there.
While I agree it would be helpful to see more info, clock speed is relevant when you consider that A9 is RISC, A9 systems tend to be cheaper than Atom systems, and from what I recall A9 is slightly more power efficient.
Clock speed by itself doesn't matter, as AMD has proven back in the Athlon 64 and P4 days. However, generally speaking, the higher the frequency, the more power consuming something is and the more heat it produces. Since ARM and Atom chips are designed to be low power and potentially fanless, being at the same frequency is a decent comparison, just to see which really is more efficient clock per clock.
Not true at all. Forcing something to go beyond its designated limit can't be compared to weakening something (or not pushing it to its limits). When you dumb down the Atom, that would actually give it the benefit, since it would be running cooler. That's like comparing a sedan to a F1 racer - its a lot easier to test road performance if the F1 slows down to the speeds of a sedan, since the sedan can't go as fast as the F1. If you want to make any semblance of a comparison, you have to compensate for the lowest denominator, not the highest.
Anyways back to the tests, anyone else find it weird that Atom under 64 bit overall did worse? Any particular reason for that?

Be a Foster Mom or Dad
Fostering will save a life of a shelter animal!
The Marion County Dog Shelter is looking for foster parents to provide temporary homes for special need dogs. The types of dogs that need fostering include litters of puppies with or without mamas, dogs recovering from surgery, and dogs with behavioral issues. Those dogs which require fostering are determined by dog shelter management.
The devotion and care provided by a foster parent gives the dog a chance to be adopted by a loving home and the length of time a dog spends with a foster parent depends on the requirements of the dog. This can be an intense short-term commitment, but also a very rewarding one.
Become a part of our foster parent program and you could make the difference for dogs that cannot be adopted right away.
Upcoming Foster Orientations
If you would like to schedule a Foster Parent Orientation, please call 503-566-6966 or email us to schedule an appointment. For more information on our program, please take a moment to read our Foster Care Program Manual.

Are You Designing or Inspecting?
Guidelines and heuristics are not interchangeable, but many UXers treat them that way. It's common to hear someone saying that they're doing a heuristic evaluation against X guidelines. But it doesn't quite work like that.
"Let's check this against the Nielsen guidelines for intranets," she said. We were three quarters of the way through completing wireframes for a redesign. We had spent four months doing user research, card sorting, prototyping, iterating, and testing (a lot). At the time, going back to the Nielsen Norman Group guidelines seemed like a really good idea. "Okay," I said. "I'm all for reviewing designs from different angles."
There were 614 guidelines.
This was not a way to check designs to see if this team had gone in the right design direction. Designing is an act of creation, whether you're doing research, drawing on graph paper, or coding CSS. Inspecting is an act of checking, of examining, often with some measure in mind.
Guidelines are statements of direction. They're about looking to the future and what you want to incorporate in the design. Guidelines are aspirational, like these:
- Add, update, and remove content frequently.
- Provide persistent navigation controls.
- Index all intranet pages.
- Provide org charts that can be viewed onscreen as well as printed.[1]
Heuristics challenge a design with questions. The purpose of heuristics is to provide a way to "test" a design in the absence of data and primary observation by making an inspection. Heuristics are about enforcement, like these:
- Visibility of system status
- The system should always keep users informed about what is going on…
- Match between system and the real world
- The system should speak the users' language…
- User control and freedom
- The system should provide a clearly marked "emergency exit" to leave the unwanted state…[2]
Creating or diagnosing?
Heuristics are often cast as pass/fail tests. Does the UI comply or not? While you could use the usability.gov guidelines to evaluate website designs, they were developed as tools for designing. They present things to think about as teams make decisions during their creative process.
Both guidelines and heuristics are typically broad and interpretable. They're built to apply to nearly any interface. But they come into play at different points in a design project. Guidelines are things to think about in reaching a design; they are considerations and can interact with one another in interesting ways. Heuristics are usually diagnostic and generally don't interact. But they might.
Don't design by guidelines alone
On the intranet project, we looked at guidelines about homepages. One directive says to put the most important new information on the homepage, and the next one says to include key features and company news on the homepage. A third says to include tools with information that changes every day. But earlier in the list of guidelines, we see a directive to be "judicious about having a designated 'quick links' area." Guidelines may feel complementary to one another or some may seem to cancel others out. Taken together, there's a set of complex decisions to make just about the homepage.
And it was too late on our intranet to pay attention to every guideline. The decisions had been made, based on stakeholder input, business requirements, and technology constraints, as well as user requirements. Though we were thoughtful and thorough in designing, anyone scoring our site against the guidelines might not give us good marks.
Don't evaluate by heuristics alone
Likewise, when looking at heuristics such as "be consistent," there's a case for conducting usability tests with real users. For example, on the intranet I was working on, one group in the client company was adamant about having a limited set of page templates, with different sections of the site meeting strict requirements for color, look, and feel. But in usability testing, participants couldn't tell where they were in the site when they moved from section to section.
Guidance versus enforcement
What are you looking for at this point in your design project? In the intranet project, we were much closer to an evaluative mode than a creation mode (though we did continue to iterate). We needed something to help us measure how far we had come. Going back to the guidelines was not the checkpoint we were looking for.
We sallied forth. The client design team decided instead to create "heuristics" from items from the user and business requirements lists generated at the beginning of the project, making a great circle and a thoughtful cycle of research, design, and evaluation.
I don't know whether the intranet we designed meets all of the guidelines. But users tell us and show us every day that it is easier, faster, and better than the old intranet. For now, that's enough of a heuristic.

Pfft, I have a four letter word: KISS
Generic guidelines are kind of useless... designers should already know these and incorporate them into designs... no need to double check.
Designs are there to focus on your customers needs (not corporate needs).
Focus on who the customers are, what they require, how they will use the site, and run a/b tests to make sure you have the design nailed to customers requirements.
Analysis paralysis!

Very strange article. Large part of the job of any interaction designer (UX designer if you prefer) is to - first - know and understand design guidelines and heuristics, and - second - to use that knowledge when designing interfaces and behavior. The guidelines and heuristics are not a checklist that is filled once the design is ready. Exactly the opposite in fact.

ISLANDERS, BAILEY STILL WORKING ON A DEALAn update on the RFA's contract negotiations
It's August 25th. Do you know where Josh Bailey's second professional contract is?
Bailey remains unsigned, and that's a little bit of a surprise. Islanders training camp begins in three weeks, so this is a good time to review what we know about Bailey, the Islanders and the state of his very restricted free agency.
1. Josh Bailey, 22 on Oct. 2, loves being an Islander and appreciates the opportunity the organization has provided him since he was drafted 9th overall in 2008. The Islanders like the forward just as much, see him as part of their nucleus, are confident his skills will lead to major contributions on the ice and respect his maturation away from the playing surface. Both sides want to get a deal done.
2. Although Garth Snow did a masterful job getting the older and more accomplished Michael Grabner and Kyle Okposo under long-term contracts with cap-friendly terms, Bailey is in a different boat. The first contract after his just-completed ELC will likely be for a shorter term.
3. Several RFAs have yet to come to terms with their clubs on their second pro deals, including Drew Doughty, Zach Bogosian, Luke Schenn, Bruins playoff hero Brad Marchand and skilled Coyotes rush-job Kyle Turris. It is worth noting that Doughty, Schenn, Marchand and Bailey are all represented by the respected Newport Sports Management.
If Bailey remains unsigned after Labor Day in two weeks, and his fellow RFAs have finalized contracts, then there would be cause for concern. Don't forget Charles Wang's rule going back to the days of Zdeno Chara and Brad Isbister: if an Islanders player is not signed by the first day of training camp, he will not play for the Islanders and will not receive a contract for the season.
However, it is way too early to be concerned about ultimatums. There is trust and respect on both sides.
The Islanders know what Bailey did in the opening weeks of the 2010-11 NHL season, producing at a Stamkosian pace while centering a line with Blake Comeau and P. A. Parenteau. Bailey struggled after returning from injury and was sent to Bridgeport by Snow one NHL game before he would have been mandated by the CBA to clear waivers.
While Bailey was inconsistent in the second half of the season, often playing out of position and on makeshift lines, the Islanders remember their young player's positive attitude and superb play during his three weeks in the American Hockey League. Although Bailey had plenty of NHL experience as a teenager, not many players his age dominate what is arguably the world's second-best league with 6 goals and 11 assists for 17 points in just 11 games.
For good reason, the Islanders have not given up on Josh Bailey and no one has given up on these negotiations. As the team embarks on its first season with genuine promise in four years, having everyone on board is crucial.
Anything but a peaceful resolution before Sept. 15 would be a profound disappointment for both sides.
As always, comments on this particular subject only are welcomed in this thread. Thank you.
[…] ISLANDERS POINT BLANK: Chris Botta reports the NY Islanders are still working on a new contract with RFA forward Josh Bailey. Botta believes it's still too early to be concerned about this situation, though he did suggest there could be cause for concern if he's still unsigned after Labor Day, especially if the other notable unsigned RFAs around the league (Drew Doughty, Brad Marchand, Luke Schenn, Zach Bogosian) are re-signed by then. The club hasn't given up on Bailey and no one has given up on these negotiations. […]
[…] Chris Botta of NYI Point Blank: Islanders forward Josh Bailey still remains unsigned with 3 weeks to go before the start of training camp. Bailey is with Newport Sports Management, who also have unsigned RFAs Drew Doughty, Luke Schenn and Brad Marchand. The Isles haven't given up on Bailey or the negotiations. […]
[…] without arbitration rights; and it's not like teams are knocking down his door with offer sheets. Chris Botta from Islanders Point Blank outlines three specific reasons why it's way too early to worry about the Islanders and Josh Bailey's contract negotiations: 1. […]
[…] that Isles owner Charles Wang has a curious protocol that says if an RFA isn't signed by camp he's not going to play for them that season and won't get a deal. The Isles are going to be a good, tough team to play and Bailey is going to be a factor in that. […]
[…] Islanders owner Charles Wang seems like a free and easy going guy, but if you want to play for the Islanders and you're one of his restricted free agents, you'd better have a contract signed by the time training camp starts or else. As Chris Botta of Islanders Point Blank pointed out back on August 25, Wang's policy is that if an RFA is unsigned by the start of camp, negotiations are over and done with and the player will sit out the entire season. […]
