Linux Anybody?


Recommended Posts

Guest Leviticus

Hey.. OpenSuse 10.2 is already out. Tried it here at the office. What can I say, it's an improvement from 10.1. However, some programs that ran in 10.1 doesn't run on 10.2 like nvu editor :( oh well, hintay na lang ako until nvu will release a new version. Until then, I'm back to good old 10.1.

 

oo nga pala, the graphics and GUI were awesome in 10.2 :cool: some reviews mentioned that it is comparable to vista (I wouldn't know cause never pa ako nakakita ng vista; although I heard that vista is buggy?)

 

good platform to start ang Suse and Ubuntu. Both have good sides and bad sides.

 

that's the beauty of linux. you can install as much linux as you want until you find the distro that is for you :P unlike sa windoze :thumbsdownsmiley:

i'm testing opensuse10.2 din now sa isang box. i really like suse's yast tool.

i'm planning on using this for my primary work box, palitan ko na yung ubuntu.

 

there's something that feels really wrong when i'm using ubuntu, i just can't put my hands on what it is. kung di ko na-test 'tong opensuse10.2 i would've gone back to centos or slackware.

ahehe.. meron pala ako kaparehas. Before I tried out may distros: redhat, fedora, bayanihan, CentOS, Gentoo, Mandriva/Mandrake, and ubuntu.

 

Yup, there was something I can't put my finger on ubuntu. When I tried it, it was too easy and "user-friendly" for me to the point that I was lookiing for a catch somewhere. Hindi lang ako nasiyahan that much with ubuntu, until i tried Suse.

 

Now Suse ang gamit ko para sa work :thumbsupsmiley:

Nasubukan ko na din yang Linux. Nababagot ako sa Windows noon kaya tinry ko. Caldera OpenLinux ang una kong sinubukan. Tapos Slackware, then Red Hat. Sinubukan ko din yung Fedora Project, pati Mandrake, pati Lycoris.. ang last na tinry ko eh yung Gentoo..

 

Oks naman gamitin ang linux eh, nung mga time lang na sinubukan ko, hindi pa masyado oks ang WINE. Kaya balik Windows ako.

bumalik ulit ako sa ubuntu. decided to give it one last chance.

balik ka na ng suse 10.2, RAID is very interesting! imagine, two physical HDD running in sync with each other or one HDD mirroring the other (something like a backup system but is primarily not). It depends on the RAID level.

 

One thing that got me interested is the RAID zero (0) level. medyo mahirap ma-gets ang description but eventually I think I got the gist of it. Imagine two hard disks running in sync to create one (1) virtual drive.

 

the best to my understanding; in windows when you have two hard disks, when the primary hard disk only has little disk space, let's say about 5 Mb remaining and then you have a 10 Mb file, you can't cut the 10 Mb file to fit the remaining disk space in the primary disk while the remaining 5 Mb of the file will be stored in the secondary HDD.

 

with RAID 0 you can do that

 

fascinating isn't it? :rolleyes:

can i start off with a pentium 3 laptop for my linux adventure?

 

i will refortmat and start it clean. then what's next? where can i find a step by step 'how to' to kick off my linux adventure. which flavor is best for a fortysomething linux adventurer?

 

whew that is scary! that means i got to have the right stuff and install them and then learn quick to get back to MTC.

 

yaiks! that's how it is going to be! new year means new beginning and new adventure.

 

this newbie bows to all the gurus in this thread!

 

i backread several pages and i found very very good stuff! my hats off to all of you guys keep it coming!

 

Im actually using a P3 system. And ubuntu edgy eft simply flies on the system. after a few modificatoins of course.

 

:mtc:

dude, raid is not enough incentive, matagal ko na ginagawa yan sa servers. ;)

bow ako sa iyo :boo: I implemented it yesterday and worked out fine (after a few hours of reading and research :wacko: ) I guess layman users won't appreciate these little things and the effort we put in learning about linux.

LVM has been around for quite sometimes, but then i never really trusted it :P

 

i'd still go for hardware RAID -_-
