Linux Anybody?

[johnlove]

I feel that unless a linux distro could come up with a acad compatible linux flavor, windows would continue her grip on the computer world.

QCAD and OPEN CASCADE is not a bad alternative to ACAD.

Sir how can i run flv files in ubuntu?

[itikbitik]

@vince the prince

 

vlc will play flv files.

 

if vlc is not installed just open terminal and run "sudo apt-get install vlc"

Im a proud linux user:

 

"Linux aqua-madidus 2.6.28-18-generic #60-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 04:40:52 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux"

WUBI it is.

[Kurtsky Keigee]

im new to this and seem to like to try linux.

just finding the commands hard to learn.

 

trying ubuntu. is jolicloud okay?

what are good linux os for newbies?

[olegna]

Good pm guys. Just want to know what Linux fits best for fileserver and webfilter using untangle or pfsense.

[itikbitik]

@olegna untangle on it's own is a stand alone system with it's own choice distribution. Still haven't gone through the kernel but you do not install it on top of a distro but as an appliance.

 

pfsense is BSD native so I would suggest using freeBDS which is not Linux.

[evilson]

Mga bro,

 

sa tingin ninyo anu ang madali at palaging ginagamit na programming language sa linux especially obuntu? can anyone give me a suggestion?

[itikbitik]

evilson depends on what you would like to achieve. I personally prefer perl and plain old bash scripting for management tools. I also use PHP and Ruby for Web facing stuff. Ubuntu like any other distro can be a platform for most languages.

[Climaco]

We were using linux back then at the office, in all computers. The routers were built on linux, redhat platform as well.

I've tried Ubuntu 10.10 and I liked it. Most of the features that a Windows Operating can give is also available in Ubuntu. The only downside is it's not that user friendly especially when you're used to using the Windows Operating System you'll be having a hard time trying out Ubuntu especially when you want to connect it to a network. Ubuntu is great but I think Windows 7 is better.

[wiz biz]

I don't think so. ubuntu is much way better than windows and as far as I know windows sucks.

[klang808]

I'm currently using backtrack 4 r2... ayos na ayos pang penetrate ng system!

[magtatah0ng]

Ganda ng Linux pang server. Lean and mean and very inexpensive. Ok siya pang host ng website with database. Sa dati kong office puro Windows ang server namin ang mamahal ng software! Sa current work ko puro Linux, puro libre!
