U.S. Government Intervenes in EFF vs. AT&T 463

An anonymous reader writes "Reuters is reporting that the US government has 'filed a motion on Saturday to intervene and seek dismissal of a lawsuit by a civil liberties group against AT&T Inc. over a federal program to monitor U.S. communications.' More from the article: " In its motion seeking intervention, posted on the court's Web site, the government said the interests of the parties in the lawsuit "may well be in the disclosure of state secrets" in their effort to present their claims or defenses ... A hearing is scheduled for June 21 before federal Judge Vaughn Walker." You may recall a few weeks ago when the DOJ asked the judge to dismiss the case. They've now taken the next step required to quash this legal action.

What did you end up installing? One of the non-standard Desktops? You may need to define what else starts up when you login, probably a couple items that would need to complete the desktop environment. I would tend to browse through all the exectuables that are under the /usr/freeware directory, some will be obvious that they are related to the desktop, some won't. Any Q's, let me know. Irix rox, I wish they could have kept on top of their entertainment market, it would be easier for me to find work. :)
