Notice: This article is not specifically about GNU/Linux. It is under our GNU/Linux category because the server in the article was and is a GNU/Linux based server. Some portions of the article deal with solving upgrade problems for applications that run on the underlying GNU/Linux distribution. In summary, this is a hardware and software article. . . . → Read More: GNU/Linux: Server Upgrade Problem Solving  Earlier today I decided to upgrade the firmware on my SOHO’s Linksys WRT54G v5 router. I usually do such things on the weekends in case something breaks. It is a good thing I waited until the weekend this time. My Linksys WRT45G is now “bricked”. For some unknown reason the firmware update never finished although . . . → Read More: GNU/Linux: Replacing a Dead Router with a Linux System You know the type. The technical reporter that tries to do something on GNU/Linux, cannot figure it out and thus states to the planet the equivalent of Chicken Little saying, “The sky is falling!”, regarding GNU/Linux. We see them over and over coming back to the same point, “Until ‘Linux’ solves [insert the technical reporter’s . . . → Read More: The GNU/Linux “Chicken Little” Syndrome I recently received an e-mail from a friend that has started using Ubuntu. He is rather new when it comes to running a GNU/Linux desktop and has asked me several questions. One of the questions was basically what software do I use and recommend. This is a serious question that a lot of new users . . . → Read More: GNU/Linux Software I Use Regularly  14 comments - (Comments are closed)  Administration at the CLI, Firefox, Linux, Mandriva, Mandriva Configuration, Open Source Software I recently purchased the final part to build myself a new AMD Phenom Quad-core PC system to run Mandriva desktop GNU/Linux. I have been getting the parts a piece at at time over the past 12 months. I may go into the specifications of the new PC in a later article. For now I want . . . → Read More: Opera on GNU/Linux – Moving an Account Reveals a Problem Do you run one or more GNU/Linux desktops? Please participate in our poll. (Sorry, this poll is now gone.) I have once again run across a "too many versions!" comment on another site. In this one a person going by the moniker "matt_chsi" states there are too many versions of Linux and that is why . . . → Read More: Linux? There Are Simply Too Many Versions! My inspiration for this article came from reading Akkana Peck’s Intro to Shell Programming: Writing a Simple Web Gallery at LinuxPlanet today. Before I get into this I will state for the record I am not a text mode Luddite. I use a graphical user interface (GUI) every day. In fact I am using the . . . → Read More: Two Reasons the Command Line Trumps the Graphical User Interface I am going to start this with some questions for you. Think about them and give honest answers to yourself. Have you ever called or e-mailed Microsoft or some other software manufacturer’s technical support about a problem as a user? What was your result? Did the technical support personnel begin with the assumption that you . . . → Read More: Why I Think Open Source Will “Win” In The End Hi all. I know – long time, no article. Business has picked up around here so I have less time for web articles. However, I wanted to follow up on something and thought a web article would be a good result from my research. I was recently asked if I knew about applications on Mandriva . . . → Read More: Mandriva Linux and your Blackberry I will admit it, I like tabloid-like headlines. While these types of headlines are trite and irritating to many, they do get attention. Thus the title of this article is intended to grab attention. If you are reading this because the headline got your attention, you can see it worked. I recently had to recover . . . → Read More: Mandriva Linux Used to Save a XP Professional PC |
