Its a Myth: Windows Does Not Just Work

One of the most popular myths perpetuated by those who look down on Linux users is that Microsoft Windows just works. In comparison to Uncle Bills OS, getting your computer up and running with any kind of Linux distribution requires many long days and sleepless nights to perfect - a lifestyle choice designed solely for geeks.

The first thing I discovered when I booted into Windows for the first time after installation, Windows XP does not recognise anywhere near as much hardware as Ubuntu Linux does. In fact, with both my Dell machines, and on both XP and Vista, I…

The heron has landed: a review of Ubuntu 8.04

Ubuntu 8.04 was released last month with highly-anticipated features like PulseAudio, GNOME 2.22, and Wubi. Although this release is a strong incremental improvement over its predecessor, we found some serious bugs that detract from the overall user experience. Ars takes a close look to find out if Hardy Heron raises the bar.

Ubuntu 8.04, codenamed Hardy Heron, spread its wings and flew out of the nest last month. This is the second Ubuntu release to offer long-term support, which means that critical updates will be available on the desktop for three years and on…

A look at SCO UnixWare 7.1.3

So, you know, SCO has been suing various people in the Linux community for the last few years, claiming that some code in Linux was stolen from them. So, Im willing to bet that a lot of people were wondering: what exactly is SCO UnixWare? Thanks to this wonderful thing called the Internet, you can see it too.

You press F10 to continue. Pressing F10 is kinda like rolling a 2d6, except it’s more enterprisy. You’ll be pressing F10 a lot. It asks you to enter a license key. But, SCO doesn’t really care about licensing it…

Bringing Debian APT to the iPhone - Jay Freeman (saurik)

While some people wonder why anyone would attempt to use an iPhone as a Unix workstation, to me and many others it seems ludicrous not to.

Hopefully, BSD Subsystem will slowly be retired, and those packages will be updated in coming months to do more intelligent checks (such as for the specific files they need). In the mean time, however, Telesphoreo provides a workaround…

LGP Has A New Linux Game Installer

Linux Game Publishing, the company behind porting such games to Linux as Cold War and X2: The Threat, has prepared a new Linux GUI installer for its forthcoming titles. While this new installer doesn't feature any overwhelming additions, it has been written finally to use GTK2 and other new functionality for this setup utility.

This new LGP installer is written to (finally) use the GTK2 toolkit, if it's available on the target system, but there is fallback support for GTK1 and ncurses. With that said, this installer does look better than earlier builds. In…
