I think you have to talk to the lawyers of some company in Japan, whose name I do not care to recall*, which owns the copyright on the word Godzilla(C) and claims to own all similar words and reptile pictures. The Mozilla people decided to choose their battles and so removed all lizards from their work. I will not call the police if you copy an icon off an old backup (you do make backups, right?), but do not mention my name on any court papers. -- Keith -- *En un lugar de la Mancha, de cuyo nombre no queiro acordarme, no ha mucho tiempo que vivia un hidalgo... -- Miguel de Cervantes, "El ingenioso hidalgo don Quijote de la Mancha" Copyright expired, granting King dead, dynasty overthrown

Mozilla 1.1 icon

by Bill Mills-Curran

I installed mozilla 1.1, and I no longer have the nice dinosaur icon when I iconify it in fvwm2. Is there a simple way to get that back? Thanks, Bill

> From: Wesley Allen <wallen(a)charter.net> > Nope, even did a urpmi xbill and nothing. Don't worry about it; he was making jokes. It's a cheesy little game that draws a bunch of computer monitor icons with penguins, red devils, striped apples, red top hats, and other meaningless symbols displayed upon them. A funny little guy with glasses and bushy brown hair comes and replaces the symbols with flags that are breaking into flying rectangles. When you click on the funny guy he disappears in a sploch of red. The main challange of the game is moving a mouse around very fast and clicking on small and badly animated objects. You eventually lose because the longer you play the more of those funny guys come at once. If you play long enough the program encourages you to get a life by segfaulting. -- Keith

Thanks for the info, Brad. It'd be WAY over my head, I'm no developer, just a hack who hates MS. wes On Thu, 2002-09-12 at 21:40, brad wrote: > While we're on the topic, some of you guys might be interested in knowing that > there is a Linux for Ipaq Developers meeting in cambridge in early October. > It's not often that these things come around. > > For more info. > http://handhelds.org/events/devweekend.html > > -brad > > _______________________________________________ > Wlug mailing list > Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug > --

Syncing on the Ipaq has always worked, but syncing on zuarus with linux is a new addition. > Anyone with iPAQ running linux, how do you sync with Linux? I have actually never tried to sync with my ipaq (i mostly use FreeBSD as my workstation, and QT's sync software doesn't run on FreeBSD). There has been some work on getting sync framework in place for KDE called KitchenSync. I don't know where this project stands (it is scheduled to be in 3.1 release, but i don't know how realistic that is). --brad

John, I know they just solved this issue with a new version of qtopia desktop, Linux should sync fine now. Why they didn't do this from the get go, who knows? Anyone with iPAQ running linux, how do you sync with Linux? wes On Thu, 2002-09-12 at 19:31, jfmurphy wrote: > On Thursday 12 September 2002 13:31, Wesley Allen wrote: > > For the last few months I've been hoping to save up some money and > > get a Zaurus, I don't think that it's going to happen any time > > soon.
