This is what I have been waiting for: the moment Linux no longer requires a reboot. This is a major selling point for Linux. Windows move over: Linux will rule the enterprise!
It’s not there yet but we are on our way. Read the story on OSNews.com or on Ars where they refer to.

There is a new beta out of Ubuntu: 9.10. I am waiting for the actual release before upgrading my system. I read the release notes and came across this ‘Known Issue’:

Ctrl-Alt-Backspace is now disabled, to reduce issues experienced by users who accidentally trigger the key combo. Users who do want this function can enable it in their xorg.conf, or via the command dontzap –disable.

I don’t like this feature. Ctrl-Alt-Backspace has saved be a lot of times before and I will definitely turn this feature off.

Very interesting video on how to perceive the 10th dimension.
