cruesome Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 you can't really guess the distro based on the gui desktop since you ca play around with any desktop for xfree, regardless of the distro. slackware ships default with kde, but i prefer gnome. some bootable cd distros even comes with a desktop.

businessgeeks Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 almost there is this Ubuntu or Mac OSX Its obviously ubuntu. unless you changed the menu bar icon to the ubuntu icon. Also, the Menu Items Applications, Places and System are the default for GNOME system which also the default desktop environment of Ubuntu. Quote Link to comment

dos8dos Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 pentium 200 mmx32mb ram10gb hdrunning on dsl cheers !!! isnt it ironic that while an upgrade in windows OS requires more hardware resources while LINUX allow us to enjoy computing with downgraded hardware i have successfully downgraded my linux hardware from Athlon 1.1Ghz to K6-2 500MHz & in the process of reviving my K6 266MHz Quote Link to comment

floppydrive Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Would like to inquire from the Linux masters here regarding opening old MSWord files in OpenOffice. We've switched to Ubuntu in the office, but we have problems opening MSWord files because the vertical spacing of the font is different in Ubuntu and MSWindows. When the same file is opened in OpenOffice for Windows, the line spacing is correct. Is there a Linux disto that has a similar font vertical spacing as windows? Or is there a font file that can be used for Ubuntu that will maintain the same vertical spacing? I've already tried installing MSWindows fonts in Ubuntu, but the vertical line spacing is the same. Is it possible to adjust the vertical line spacing of the fonts in Ubuntu? Thanks in advance for your advice. Quote Link to comment
uaeboy25 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 musta na mga linux addict. im using mandriva linux 9. im planning to make my laptop running 4 os. mandriva, xp, ubuntu, feodora core at suse. linux addict din ako kaso i admit in 5 years using linux i need to learn more. anyway sau floppy drive try mo muna ang basics in printing like paragraph edditing and page set up. kasi magkaakiba ang set up ng font nyan. like ung font size ng mozilla sa xp at mozilla sa linux. i notice maliliit ang font size ng linux.

I found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2...ht=line+spacing It recommends installation of MS fonts and tweaked fontconfig xml files. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment

Di po ako linux expert pero tiningnan nyo na po ba yung setting nung bios.Nabasa ko dun sa isang thread na compaq presario gamit mo.Sa bios kasi nun meron enhanced sata support which is turned on by default.Disabling that feature will let legacy OS see the harddrive. I hope this helps. Quote Link to comment
uaeboy25 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 walang enhance sata support sa bios ko. hindi na sya katulad ng dati bios sa compaq na may nakalagay na enhance sata support. anyway maiinstall ko din yan pag nagkatime ako. gusto ko kasi is novell suse. anyway sa caldera i was young that time ala pa ako idea about sa mounting and file system pero later on natuto ako. like hda0, hda1. that time wala akong idea sa ganun. thanks rin kasi buhay ang thread na to.

maui25 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 para maging compatible ang open office at ms office i copy ang mga font ng winxp na meron office sa font folder ng open office, u will notice kapag na open mo ang doc sa open office na gawa sa ms office parehong pareho na sila, beware of clip art and tables etc... na microsoft office specific kc indi ito usable sa open office.
