Want to infuse an old eMac with new life? Linux.com has < http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/10/24/1817237 instructions > that explain how to install Linux on an eMac.

The Genunix wiki has < http://www.genunix.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_build_Mono_on_Solaris instructions > on how to build Mono for the Solaris operating system. Although I doubt that Sun will ever embrace .NET, It's nice to see that not every Solaris user is a Java fanatic.

< http://www.cendio.com/seamlessrdp SeamlessRDP > allows you to leverage rdesktop in rootless mode, making individual Windows applications < appear on your Linux desktop >. It looks pretty cool. If I had a windows system around here somewhere I would test it. If somebody wants to try it out and write a segment about it, I would love to include it in the next edition of Linux.Ars.
