gee...  an email entitled 'Hacker THreat' discussing some rumor about a
***CRACKER*** threatening three companies (that to the best of my
knowledge have little to do with ireland or linux) is sent to the IRISH
LINUX USERS GROUP.

there's on-topic, off-topic, and then there's anti-topic...

grumble.

ok, so gnome-pilot.  it's nice.  but how do you get it to *let go*?  i
have but one serial port, and i don't want it locked into the pilot.  i
tried to get the gnokii s/w running yesterday and gnome's hold on the
port seemed to annoy it.

btw, for a real hacker threat i suggest visiting copyleft and buying the
decss t-shirt.  four dollars gets sent to the eff to help protect the
decss hackers and distributors from the threat of legal action.
