reasons for compiling people do want to install because there is no other way, but thats by far not the only or greatest reason, other reasons could be that they want the code to be optimised for their particular architecture and note that installing from source gives greater (if not …

why is it every time i load a new distro i never find one that has default FFS support? why is it however that virtually/probably every distro out there comes ready to read proprietary FAT(FAT16), VFAT(FAT32) and NTFS partitions but not non-proprietary filesystems such as FFS?!? *BSD are opensource too …

i think the best one is the one that works for you. that's the most sense in their reply because it depends what the user is expecting to do with it. For instance, what if the user truelly wants to lean the inner workings of Linux? In that case I …

I'm still not convinced that GIF is any use other than for animation though, it's use in the past i can understand, but other than the fact that PNG does not support animation and MNG hasn't really taken off (probably because gif is free now?), the only thing that still …

you don't need to re-install. this is something that can happen from time to time and all you need to do is re-install grub. i use a boot disk to do this called "super grub boot disk" and can be found here - [url]http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/[/url] It's an awesome tool but it's …

i think it's kinda useless matching gentoo and ubuntu as gentoo is a source distributon. if you mean 'which should i choose' then i'd say if you have to ask, get ubuntu ;)

ATI are crap when it comes to Linux support, and I don't say that lightly, I'm a die hard 3DFX user and I still hate Nvidia for shelving the company, but even I have had to change all my cards to Nvidia because the drivers are buggy. just ask the …

you need to try the safe video option in the boot screen, also try adding nofb to the kernel options also on the boot screen. Nvidia and ATI's drivers are proprietary so the distributions can't distribute their drivers, but this will get you going in 2D mode at least just …

I think you will find that most ISP's say that they don't support Linux. I personally find this lame, but back to your issue. from what i have read on google, you shouldn't need to do anything for knoppix to work on comcast..

i agree on the whole with mepnoob, if he's found his dream linux in mepis and wants to flaunt it, why the not? people who havn't tried it can't comment on the validity of his claims and i for one would never do that, seems to me this joeprogrammer is …

This is caused by Windows deleting the master boot record where grub resides, don't fret, your data is safe. but in order to get the installer back, you'll need to re-install grub. i personally use the super grub disk [link]http://freshmeat.net/projects/supergrub/[/link] once you're in linux, log in as root and issue …

i would agree with pearl, i believe it should be in every admins toolkit. as a side note, as you allready know C/C++, you might want to try using system(); (man 2 system) to call external programs such as sed and awk, the text manipulation programs :)
