Subject: Zorin OS 6 – One small step for Windows converts

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Here’s the pitch. You’ve been using Windows since you were a kid, and you’ve always been pretty tech savvy. Maybe you’ve done some coding, and perhaps you feel restricted by the closed nature of Microsoft’s products. Whatever your background, you’re now interested in giving Linux a try – however there’s a crippling amount of choice in distributions, and they all look so alien. This is where Zorin comes in.

[b]Microsoft's Blue Screen of Death[/b] is the curse of Windows. Not just its appearance, mid way through some serious game play or spreadsheeting, but the messages themselves - digital monologues on the existence of a problem, its possible causes and how you can fix it.

Subject: Distributed Storage Across 4 Storage Nodes With GlusterFS 3.2.x On Ubuntu 12.04

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

This tutorial shows how to combine four single storage servers (running Ubuntu 12.04) to one large storage server (distributed storage) with GlusterFS. The client system (Ubuntu 12.04 as well) will be able to access the storage as if it was a local filesystem. GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86_64 servers with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA.

Subject: Is Blizzard banning Linux Users?

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

While some companies like Valve are working on porting their software to run natively on Linux, it appears some other large companies are going to the extreme to prevent users from running their software on free operating systems.

Linux 3.5 is now capable of the "FireWire Target Disk Mode", which is a familiar Mac feature. Btrfs logs data errors, allowing unreliable storage media to be detected. Checksums have been implemented to ensure that Ext4 metadata is consistent

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Like all previous Fuduntu releases, this release follows our tradition of making small incremental distribution improvements that don’t sacrifice the stability of our Linux distribution. Existing Fuduntu users have already rolled up to 2012.3, as all of the updates available are released to our stable repository. This cycle focused on many improvements under the hood, including core platform updates like GCC 4.6.3 and Anaconda 16.

Pinta, a raster image editor, is the app equivalent of a diamond in the rough. Years of testing and reviewing open source and commercial software taught me never to assume that a relatively new application is not worthy of attention. That lesson proved true with this youngster of an app.

Subject: Linux Gamers are fewer than too few

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Reading the articles about Blizzard banning Linux users for using wine and not giving a refund made me think that the main problem once again, is the number of users using wine to play Diablo III. If the percentage was 15% for example, Blizzard would never ban them because they would love to keep them around buying more extra stuff when they release it.
