[How to] Install Apache Tomcat on MacOsX
Stay hungry, stay foolish.
I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I’ve ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That’s it. No big deal. Just three stories.
The first story is about connecting the dots.
No Fglrx, No RadeonHd… Simply Ati-Dri
I’ve tried all of Linux ati driver alternatives… And I’ve never been so excited about performances and functionalities.
Especially with the Fglrx ones. One of the motivations that push me to find an alternative is with catalyst drivers (from ATI) you can’t change user without logging out from your account.
I was looking for something that was stable and in the same time allows me to use compiz.
So I’ve tried RadeonHd drivers… in every version… From the stable one to the git one.
Putting “radeonhd” in the xorg.conf after installing them you simply get a grey window and X restarts.
My start point is this:
Processor: Q8200 clocked to 2.92 Ghz
Video Card: Gainward HD4850 1Gb DDR3
So this is the problem… And this is the solution…
Engineering Windows 7 – Microsoft Blog Source
Vista was (and will be for a few time) a forward step about security, but we’ve to say it was a back step about speed related to Windows Xp.
Microsoft with the new 7 will search for a new desktop experience providing better speeds for the main ui increasing productivity in every task.
Gaming first of all! :)…
Even more standard with another collaboration… This time with Nintendo…
Even more complicated for Ati…
Reading NVIDIA Provides Physics Technology For PLAYSTATION®3 I’ve just thinked about ported PC Games from PS3… And ATI Users… like me (for now :) )…
Is it just the begin of the end for Workstation Ati Graphic Cards?
