Comment Range?? (Score 0) 1

Having used 60Ghz in a test for wireless backhaul I can say the range sucks. I don't know how it will work inside a typical home where the wireless router is not in line of site of the TV or other device that you are going to stream to. In my tests a person walking in between the beam was enough to cause major packet loss, how is it going to go through walls?

Only the companies with large amounts of cash could afford to buy spectrum in the white spaces. I predict that we are just going to see more of the same (poor service, expensive). Where I live the company that bought the white space did so so that another company could not come in and compete with it cable broadband offering.

High Performance Linux Kernel Project — LinuxDNA 173

Thaidog submits word of a high-performance Linux kernel project called "LinuxDNA," writing "I am heading up a project to get a current kernel version to compile with the Intel ICC compiler and we have finally had success in creating a kernel! All the instructions to compile the kernel are there (geared towards Gentoo, but obviously it can work on any Linux) and it is relatively easy for anyone with the skills to compile a kernel to get it working. We see this as a great project for high performance clusters, gaming and scientific computing. The hopes are to maintain a kernel source along side the current kernel ... the mirror has 2.6.22 on it currently, because there are a few changes after .22 that make compiling a little harder for the average Joe (but not impossible). Here is our first story in Linux Journal."
