Zebuntu Debuts

Already at their second beta release [German], Zebuntu is an Xfce-based Ubuntu distribution with heavy - you guessed it - Zeta influences. Bernd Korz explains the goals of Zebuntu in the project's announcement."Our goal is to use BlueEyedOS to offer a new platform for our former Zeta customers. In the future, Zeta, BeOS, as well as any future Haiku applications, will run natively on Zebuntu. This also offers a distinct advantage for developers for these platforms; they can use Zebuntu to develop for their platforms while utilising the performance and versatility of Linux." In other words, run BeOS applications on Linux. They have not forgotten about BFS support either. The project is, of course, completely open source. The website is only available in German for now, but Zebuntu developer Leszek Lesner confirmed to me that work is being done on an English variant (there already is an English development blog). Here are some top features: Small slim 4.4 XFCE desktop provi...

The problem affects Unix-like operating systems, which represent system time as the number of seconds (ignoring leap seconds) since 00:00:00 January 1, 1970[1]. This representation also affects software written for most other operating systems because of the broad deployment of C. On most 32-bit systems, the time_t data type used to store this second count is a signed 32-bit integer. The latest time that can be re...

New Intel Skulltrail platform uses AMD chips

Intel has launched a new gaming and high-end computing platform called Skulltrail which includes two quad-core processors and graphic cards. Skulltrail not only holds eight processors; it also gives users a choice of two multi-card graphics solutions - one from AMD's ATI division and one from nVidia. The new platform will be largely welcomed by gamers, along with 3D animators and high-definition video editors, it also will have its place in corporate IT. Intel also officially unveiled its Dual Socket Extreme Desktop Platform at the 2008 Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. The platform is the latest product to run Intel's 45-nanometre Penryn microprocessors, which hit the market last November.
