Actually, KDevelop (at least version 3) has a very nice Intel C++ support, and Sun's compiler (whatever it's called nowadays) support too, I think. Even if KDevelop didn't support a particular compiler, the only thing missing would be the jump-to-error functionality.

And Watcom, is, well, irrelevant (ISO C++, anyone?).

Comment Barracuda / DiamondMax difference? (Score 1) 559

Anyone know what's the difference between Barracuda and DiamondMax series?
They seem identical, but I'm thinking maybe they are still manufactured in different places?

As a side note:
Maxtorman: I'd like to thank you for posting here, as I'm the owner of two 7200.11 drives, and up until now I was totally confused as about what to do. Now I'll just wait for the new firmware release.

Google To Sell Truly Open Android Dev Phone 219

binary.bang writes "Google has announced an unlocked version of T-Mobile's G1 for sale at the same unlocked price of $399. The Android Dev Phone 1 is the G1, except being truly open: no SIM-lock, no hardware lock. Feel free to flash your customized Android build — the bootloader won't be checking for signatures. Don't be misled by the word 'Dev,' looks like all you need to qualify is an Android Market account. This looks like the Open Handset Alliance delivering the promised Open Handset: yes root, yes flash-your-build, no contract, no strings attached. Anyone else relieved & thrilled?"

Read this if you have an AAK drive:

I had the same performance (50 MB/s) in hdparm with AAK 500G drive. That was on a Promise Sata TX/2 controller (it supports sata150 only).

However, then I switched to an nforce500 motherboard (Asus M2N-E SLI) which has a sata300 contoller (linux sees it as sata_nv) and removed a 150/300 jumper from the drive, and suddenly I got 75 MB/s! Plus, the drive became much more silent (but not as silent as I want to).
I think the jumper did the trick. It wasn't supposed to (sata150 has 150 MB/s maximum), but it did.

So, I don't know, but maybe it's the controller / jumper configuration problem.
