Linuksowe nowiny

Jest popyt na tanie komputery z Linuksem
W przeciągu niecałych dwóch tygodni sieć Wal-Mart sprzedała wszystkie komputery Everex TC2502 gPC z preinstalowanym Linuksem Ubuntu. Na niewiarygodną popularność komputera zapewne wpłynęła w dużym stopniu cena - 199 USD (ok. 490 PLN). Skrót parametrów technicznych "zielonego" komputera: 1.5GHz VIA C7 CPU wbudowanego w płytę Mini-ITX, 512MB pamięci Ram i twardy dysk 80GB.
Mocny start Fedory 8
Według statystyk , najnowszą wersję Fedory w przeciągu pierwszych czterech dni od wydania zainstalowało na tę chwilę prawie 58 tysięcy razy! Statystyki oparte są o unikalne adresy IP łączące się do serwera z uaktualnieniami pakietów. Obliczenie liczby pobrań obrazów ISO nowej wersji jest dużo trudniejsze, jednak przez sam protokół BitTorrent pobrano nową Fedorę ponad 52 tys. razy.

PC boot loader which can analyze your filesystems. GPL

Gujin 2.2 finds the Linux kernel images available, as well as other bootable partitions (for *BSD, MS-DOS, Windows, etc.), and displays a graphical menu for selecting which system to boot. Because it understands the structure of Linux kernel images, Gujin does not need LILO and can even load ELF kernels. There is no need to execute anything after making a new kernel: just copy the kernel image file into the "/boot" directory. Gujin is written almost entirely in C with GCC, and it fully executes in real mode to be as compatible as possible.
