I finally got around to fixing my stupid screen not shutting off when I closed the lid. Here is the fix I used.

As the Slashdot article says, Creative Labs is trying to shut down a guy who is modding the Vista drivers for Creative Labs sound cards. He makes them work. The folks at Creative Labs can’t seem to pull their heads out of their asses and write a good driver (I’ve had many-a-problem with my Audigy 2 on Windows XP), so he’s doing what everybody what’s Creative Labs to do and fix the shit.

While I do agree with what CL is talking about: he’s probably dancing on some legal lines.

But I have a better idea: GIVE THE MAN A JOB!

Pay him lots of money to sit in a room and hack up drivers. He’s doing all this work without source code, so imagine what he could do if he had the source to everything. I’d thoroughly enjoy some better drivers for my card, and if upgrading to an X-Fi and eventually Vista is going to make me want to drill my ears out, then the answer is no.
