A drawing program can be nice. Like inkscape or others mentioned. But I am focused on process and system diagrams. It looks like dia is more suited for that purpose. I think I will see what dia can provide. And I will keep exploring alternatives. -- Roger Oberholtzer

Re: [opensuse] diagram editor

by Eric Gunther

Sorry, after installing Calligra, found that its a different level of diagramming... Incidentally, has anyone any suggestions to map/chart *thinking....that is a process towards a goal? Freemind is limited because it doesn't do flow as well and dia or similar. I just saw that Braindump from the Calligra group has mindmapping. What I had in mind is something closer to the flowchart concept that Calligra flow appears to use. Some time ago I spent a decent amount of effort trying to find something but didn't find anything satisfactory. I see that flow has a place to import stencils but a quick search doesn't seem to discover the place to obtain them.

[OT] PCI slot order: which is eth0, and which is eth3?

by Jeric

How can I tell which is eth0, 1, and 2? Normally, eth0 is the PCI closest to the top of the mobo, however, in this PC the PCI/ISA slots are plugged into a card which is plugged in perpendicular to the motherboard, so I don't know where to start counting (it's a desktop, rather then a tower). In my stupid diagram below, both 2 and 3 are shared ISA/PCI slots, and 0 is just a PCI. If anyone can understand the diagram, could you maybe let me know what order the slots go in? Yes, I am ashamed to even ask this, but I think I have a software setting wrong, but before I alter that I want to make sure I have the PCI order correct. (0?)PCI []|[] PCI(1?) |[] /ISA (2?)PCI []| /ISA []| | ------------------------ | |||RAM [] (HDD)| (mobo) | []CPU (CDROM)| ------------------------ Thanks, Jeric :o -- JericAtSbcglobalDotNetwork 11:31pm up 7 days, 15:20, 5 users, load average: 0.00, 0.05, 0.01

Software patents (regardless of whether they have a reason to exist) protect specific algorithm and functionalities. Copyright only protects actual text, that is the specific _incarnation_ in C, C++ or whatever, of a certain algorithm. If you copy and paste proprietary source code in your program, it is a copyright violation: to fix it, you just cancel those lines of code, and rewrite new code which has different variable names, a different order of the flow diagram, etc... but implement the same algorithm. That's it. But if there is a patent on, say, the _mathematical_ _formulas_ or the abstract flow diagram which make the Linux kernel multitasking, you cannot "remove the offending code", because what the patent forbids is any use of those algorithm and diagrams in any forms, no matter how you write the related code. The only way to "remove the offending code" of a patent is to STOP using that functionality. This has nothing to do with whether there are or not patent violations in Linux or any other GPL software. It's just a basic distinction which should not be forgotten, if nothing else to stop repeating absurdities like the one in that article, that is the illusion that you can cure a patent violation as painlessly as you cure a copyright one. Not to mention that: > and, because open source development moves so rapidly, that means > Linux would no longer be infringing before it even got to court. this would not change much for any individual or company found guilty of patent violations in the code they distributed until yesterday Marco -- Help *everybody* to love Free Standards and Free Software: http://digifreedom.net/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
