Strange Ubuntu/Vista Compatibility Bug, Solved 140
Walter Vos writes "Since I've been running Vista and Ubuntu in dual boot with a shared FAT32 partition for my personal folders, I've been seeing some strange compatibility issues between these two operating systems. Somehow Vista locks the folders on the FAT32 partition that are used for folders like Documents, Downloads, etc. A blogpost I wrote gives a detailed description of the problem and a fix for it."

either timothy never used a Linux distro and thinks this is newsworthy, or this is the slowest news day ever
Timothy was last seen putting Ubuntu on an XO. He's been using Linux at least since I met him in 1999.
It's August, every day is a slow news day :)

Good thing I stick to good ol' DOS, the only OS that won't sexually abuse you, it seems.

You obviously never really did fit in here. I mean, a true slashdotter would have titled his post "Last post!"

I've gotten used to putting up with all sorts of nasty behavior from Windows over the years, and I guess I could eventually reluctantly learn to get used to the ass fucking.... but I had to dump Vista when it insisted on shitting in my mouth after each ass fucking.
