A Very Unscientific Adventure Into Ubuntu Linux and Google
2011-12-10 03:13:00 I tossed Windows into the snow bank several years ago. Elegant on the outside, but ugly on the inside. The world of Blue Screens of Death, malware and viruses were really beginning to tick me off. I sought salvation in Linux. Over time I have flirted with several species of Linux. And like many people ...

Co-worker?s First Time Using Ubuntu Linux
2011-10-05 09:00:00 At my day job I inherited a collection of a bunch of old computers. A ton of them were Intel Pentium 4 machines without hyper threading. Some were custom built jobs that were in decent working order that I just didn?t want to support, and some were a few years old, still worked okay but mainly didn?t match any hardware standard we had going. I decided to donate all of these computers, but before I called a local non-profit to haul them away in exchange for a tax deductible receipt, I made these machines available to employees. What a nice thing to do right? Before donating computers though I securely wiped the drives with DBAN. That meant that for one no company info got into the wrong hands, and two I didn?t have to support anyone?s old Windows install. Plus I didn?t have to worry about licensing issues. For the employees that wanted a machine, but couldn?t afford to buy Windows on their own, I recommended Ubuntu Linux for them. My co-worker Layla in the video was really interest...

What Do You Think about Ubuntu Linux?
2010-09-13 06:20:00 What Do You Think about Ubuntu Linux? twitter.com - facebook.com - My thoughts on Ubuntu... hah! I think it's a Linux distro. I don't have any issues with the operating system. As far as Linux distros go, it's likely the easiest to use. Any time I say something about one distro instead of another, a war tends to break out. They can all agree, though, that Ubuntu is about as close as Linux has come to being mainstream thus far. chris.pirillo.com From: lockergnome Views: 18565 155 ratings Time: 05:13 More in Entertainment

Come installare il modem di Alice in Ubuntu Linux e derivate
2008-05-24 17:25:00 Salve!!! Ubuntu non ha ancora raggiunto la piena compatibilità, di default, con la maggior parte dei modem (come la serie Alice Gate), soprattutto quelli di Alice.Per ovviare a questo problema però, basta installare il "Broadband ADSL/PPPoE Client", che permette la connessione RP-PPPoE, cioè quella utilizzata della maggior parte dei modem alice. Senza quel client, la connessione risulterà lenta, la navigazione disturbata, o addirittura, in alcuni casi, non avvenire.Per installare Broadband ADSL/PPPoE Client, se utilizziamo Ubuntu e/o derivate (come Kubuntu), basterà scaricare questo file, posizionarlo per una nostra comodità nella cartella Home, digitare da terminale (Applicazioni -> Accessori -> Terminale) sudo tar zxvf rp-pppoe-3.6.tar.gz -C /opt/ (inseriamo quindi la password di amministratore quando ci verrà richiesta, e poi premiamo "Invio" dalla tastiera), ancora sudo chown -R root:root /opt/rp-pppoe-3.6/, ed infine sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/RP-PPPo-E.desktop.Nella fin...

The "Ubuntu Story" site
2008-05-16 13:59:00 I just stumbled on this site, it is a promotional site devoted to Ubuntu, you might be thinking, "well yet another Ubuntu site" but I think this one deserves a visit, it does not have how-tos, or such kind of info, it is mainly promotional, it has some information about Ubuntu's, Flexibility, Speed, Simplicity, Appearance, Stability, Freedom, Security and Community, which are the columns where Ubuntu rests. You can also share your story (your Ubuntu's Story) with others, and you can read other's story, there are some good ones, you find how Ubuntu helps people in all areas, from students, to web developers, to sales people, as a matter of fact in all possible areas. So, I encourage you to share your Ubuntu story in that site, if you are an Ubuntu user off course. I also like the design with flash, the colours, effects, etc. nice artwork. Ubuntu Story
How did Ubuntu end up so popular?
2008-05-16 12:49:00 As a matter of fact, I made myself that question more than a few times, but never took the time to try to find an answer, because Ubuntu is a relatively new Distro, it comes from Debian when Mark Shuttleworth, who was part of the Debian project decided that Debian was not focused on the final user as it should, and made its own distribution. Well, I have found an article which touches some facts about why is Ubuntu so popular today, and we have to say that, in less time than RedHat, Suse, or Debian. Of course as almost everything in this globalization era, is marketing, but instead of starting an analysis, you better read the article I have found, and then comment about it. (Due to spam, I have to approve the comments before they go online). How did Ubuntu end up so popular?
How to: Install a Debian/Ubuntu package (.deb) cache server - apt-cacher
2008-05-14 16:36:00 If you have more than one PC using Debian or Ubuntu, you know that upgrading them makes most of the time download the same files more than once, and that is not good for your bandwidth. I usually forward my requests to my Squid (in my office) and to my Personal proxy Polipo at home, it works, but apt-cacher may be a better approach as the way it decides if a file stays or is erased from the cache is more appropriate for .deb package than in Squid or Polipo, as they are optimized for web surfing. Well, after that introduction, lets go to the interesting part of the post. Installing To install it just run: sudo aptitude install apt-cacher Configuring The main configuration file is located at: /etc/apt-cacher/apt-cacher.conf- And you should check these parameters, which at least for me are the most important ones. # cache_dir is used to set the location of the local cache. This can # become quite large, so make sure it is somewhere with plenty of space. cache_dir=/var/cache/apt-cacher-...

2008-04-23 18:50:00 A new release of Ubuntu Server, version 8.04, is scheduled to be available for free download Thursday with more enterprise qualities than previous releases. The move puts Canonical's Ubuntu, heretofore a consumer-oriented, desktop version of Linux, on more of a collision course with Red Hat Enterprise andNovell Suse Linux Enterprise. Ubuntu Server 8.04 will be supported for five years, only the second version of Ubuntu to be guaranteed Long Term Support, with the previous 6.06 version also receiving the LTS designation.

Runlevels - Debian (Ubuntu) / Fedora (CentOS)
2008-04-21 21:49:00 There are six different runlevels in Linux, there could be more than six, but for compatibility reasons six are the default. I have used RedHat and Debian based Linux, more specifically Fedora and Ubuntu and Debian itself, I have noticed that there is a difference in the runlevels on this different Linux distributions. Well but first let's define the runlevels: Runlevels in Linux are seven and they are: - 0 = halt - 1 = single user - 2 = CLI, multi-user, no net - 3 = CLI, multi-user, networked - 4 = open - 5 = GUI, multi-user, networked - 6 = reboot You can define more of them if you want, but whit this should be enough, a runlevel will define which software to start when you enter in that specific runlevel. For example if you go to runlevel 0, the computer will halt, and probable turn off (If it is a modern computer). When you enter a specific runlevel, Linux will run some scripts that are located at: /etc/rc0.d Run level 0 /etc/rc1.d Run level 1 /etc/rc2.d Run level 2 /etc/rc3...
