Work on this jConduit is continuing (adding features     and such), but it is a good example of how to code a network-enabled     jConduit. Interested developers are encouraged to update their source     trees. This jConduit will be a part of our first beta binary release,     planned for sometime within the next few weeks.

LCD Price Fixing?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/03/31/2341256

    bilsaysthis asks: "Bill Kearney [0]poses a really interesting question,     one which I've been puzzled by for a while too: 'What's with prices on     LCD displays? On one hand a laptop can be had with UXGA resolution     display for $1000. Try buying that display alone and you'll find it's     also around $1000. Then there's how much they're gouging for the same     resolution in an LCD television.'" Sadly enough, as much as I want one     of these for my wall, the market is willing to bear these prices. How     long will it be before this hardware becomes affordable? Links

Operational Testing of Linux Kernel 2.5.x http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/03/31/1658205

[0]G3ckoG33k writes "[1]The Open Source Development's Lab has begun
    operational testing of the 2.5.x Kernel: "The staff at OSDL has been     involved with development and testing of 2.5 since the beginning and     we've noticed that it seems to be very stable for a development tree.     So good, in fact, that we think it is ready to be tested in a     production environment. We have planned and begun execution of a     project to test the 2.5 kernel in our data center using our production     environment. The project includes lots of testing and lots of escape     hatches so we don't run recklessly off the edge. We began with some of     the simpler, less critical servers and, as we build confidence, are     moving to the more complex servers. Today we have several servers     running 2.5 and within a month we'll have most of the data center     migrated to 2.5." Can anyone say Dare Devils?" Links

Lindows Media Computer: Power to Strike Microsoft? http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/03/31/1740213

    review of the [2]Lindows Media Computer from iDOTpc.com. The review     covers the hardware behind the machine but also goes through all of the     machine's claimed functionality: "After looking over all the media     hype, I went searching for one of these little machines. Could the     Lindows Media Computer really pull off meeting the new Windows machine     in a pitched battle? It did boast Ã&#x201a;Â&#x201c;Instant onÃ&#x201a;Â&#x201d; DVD, CD, MP3, and VCD     playback as one of the prime features. And, it was only a fraction of     the price for a Windows Media Center system. At the time, only one     vendor had them available, [3]iDOTpc.com. After some communication, the     folks at iDOTpc.com were kind enough to loan me one of the units to     take for a spin." You can find the [4]full review over at

cgipaf 1.3.0pre2 (Development)
http://freshmeat.net/releases/118082/

Can we help you?X

    cgipaf is a combination of three CGI programs. passwd.cgi, which allow     users to update their password, viewmailcfg.cgi, which allows users to     view their current mail configuration, and mailcfg.cgi, which updates     the mail configuration. All programs use PAM for user authentication.     It is possible to run a script to update SAMBA passwords or NIS     configuration when a password is changed. mailcfg.cgi creates a     .procmailrc in the user's home directory. A user with too many invalid     logins can be locked. The minimum and maximum UID can be set in the     configuration file, so you can specify a range of UIDs that are allowed     to use cgipaf.

changedfiles 0.9.4
http://freshmeat.net/releases/118120/

    changedfiles is a framework for filesystem replication, security     monitoring, and/or automatic file transformations--essentially any     application where you'd poll files or directories and either do     something to them or send them somewhere else (or both). The difference     is, the kernel tells you when they change, instead of you having to     poll. Besides which, it's an easy real time FTP push mirror to one or     multiple sites. The changedfiles system consists of two parts: a kernel     module (works with Linux kernel version 2.4) which reports to a device     whenever a file on the filesystem changes, and a daemon which runs in     user space and can be configured to do almost any action when a change     to a file matching the one of the patterns it looks for is reported.     The kernel module is SMP safe and has been tested on Intel, PowerPC,     and Alpha.

CHRendezvous 0.1

Given a     database connection, for example, the CCU can use existing tables to     create Java files replete with accessors, mutators, and common methods.     In addition to translating programming languages, it allows a user to     define entities/attributes in a friendly GUI. Supported languages     include Java, HTML/JavaScript, XML, SQL, VB/ASP .Net, and C.

dvb-mpegtools 0.2.5
http://freshmeat.net/releases/118081/

It modifies Unix software so that it     compiles and runs on Mac OS X and makes it available for download as a     coherent distribution. Fink uses Debian tools like dpkg and apt-get to     provide powerful binary package management. You can choose whether you     want to download precompiled binary packages or build everything from     source.

Gauche 0.6.8
http://freshmeat.net/releases/118075/

    Gauche is an R5RS Scheme implementation that aims to be a handy tool     for daily work. Quick startup, a built-in system interface, and native     multilingual support are some of its goals.

Supported formats include HTML, DVI, PS, fulltext, mail,     man pages, news, troff, WordPerfect, C sources, and many more. Adding     support for new formats is easy due to Harvest's modular design.

hdup 1.6.8 (Stable)
http://freshmeat.net/releases/118085/

    hdup is used to back up a filesystem. Features include encryption of     the archive (with mcrypt), compression of the archive (bzip/gzip/none),     the ability to transfer the archive to a remote host or restoring from     a remote host (with ssh), and no obscure archive format (it is a normal     compressed tar file).

Images can be stored outside of the regular HTML directory     used by the Web server to increase security.
