ubuntu/linux and open source

[TDM]

:P :P hey is there any people who use ubuntu,kubuntu,fedora,mandriva and stuff..
(i tnk there will)
if you still not using some opensource softwears it is the best time to use...
do not hesitate. just start using one of them.
if you want to be a pragramer you must use some these o/s.
coz it's the best way to lern a codes of a o/s. every code can be viwed,(not like windows).......
dont worry there will be so many people to help your questions out there..just try
if you want to get the iso or to get some cd follow the link.(it's all free)
for ubuntu :- https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
for kubuntu :- https://shipit.kubuntu.org/

(if the link dosn't work follow this link)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ih1TYQ_Ut-A
you don't have to get a super computer for these things...
if you have 64 mb vga and somthing around 384 mb ram you can run these visual efects withou any problem..
you can find so many amazing videos about this in youtube..watch those and decide(serch for "beryl" or "compiz" or "xgl" in youtube serch bar)
best of luck

Have used RedHat, Ubuntu, Fedora.

Pretty good.. But I reckogn the home users will be more satisfied by Windows than Open OSs. Maybe coz of the software compatibilities etc.

Why bother? Why do you people look to run Windows software on Unix based Craperating Systems? Use open source softwares :P

[chanster]

People please don't fall for open source.....What the hell can you do with those? For the sake of trying a new OS i that Ubuntu or whatever....all i could do is stare at the desktop........Nothing more......

So why bother with them? WINDOWS FTW!!!

If you can answer a few simple question with as much information as possible, we can figure out if this modem is supported in linux and if it is, we can figure out how to get it working.

[VIDUrUVAN123]

Hay Guys You do not need to install those os to you computers you can use live CD(but not sure is coding working or not) or use live thumb drive version

Just do google search you can find lot of free os like this but do not know whether that are open source

[eshanl]
