GNU/Linux is also really great platform for programming. Things feel right, work right, and there are nice tools everywhere. I grew up in win32 land, and this really gave me some warped ideas about the world. But after about a decade or so

Most of all, it's just not an interesting way to spend your time, and it's not even a "hack", and therefore not even deserving of that title. If you want to play with technology at a "hackathon", hack on something interesting, not just the

This. Oh god no. No. Don't put your root fs on fuse. Or put ntfs on root. Please, for your own good? Or am I being trolled? I'm probably being trolled. I'm being trolled, right guys? Right?

Well that's quite interesting... Try and see if it still happens with fglrx. The progress bar is a CSS3 animation, which means Chromium likely hardware accelerates it, so I could imagine buggy drivers causing issues.
