FLOSS = Free Libre Open Source Software. The "libre" is added to emphasize the "free as in free speech" aspect. All FLOSS is open source, but not all open source software is FLOSS.
Open source...
Can Testdisk be used to recover a filesystem that was reformatted with the same filesystem? In my case, ext3 to ext3.
Just be sure to check the forum rules first. I frequent forums where bumps are strictly forbidden, for any reason.
Why can't we have images in the forum signatures?
1) It's pointless.
2) It's distracting and makes for more scrolling.
3) It slows down the loading of the page.
4) It puts an extra load on the...
I can agree that RMS deserves to be criticized, but please keep it to the stuff that he actually said. Making stuff up to make fun of him is just wrong.
I reasoned like you and chose my real name as user name for this forum. My profile shows up during a google search, but that's about it. I don't know that many people who use Ubuntu anyway, so the...
I think it's a great idea.
This way we could compete with Apple in the "just works" section. Apple's main advantage is that they only have to test their software and drivers on Macs, which means...
Are there any stability problems with Opera 10 since it's still beta? I'm still using the current 9.x version and I don't want to upgrade unless the beta is reasonably bug-free.
It's not just that it starts quicker, it's that you can continue working right where you left off. All programs and open documents remain exactly where you left them. This can save anything from a...
Dude, make that complaint to the PCLinuxOS forum staff, not to us. We can't do anything about it.
What I want to know is how on Earth they could finance twelve years of not producing anything. The project manager - if they had one - should have been fired about nine years ago.
I don't believe...
The strangest nickname is probably in Spanish. People called José are nicknamed "Pepe".
The reason is that the biblical Joseph (José) was the foster father (padre putativo) of Jesus. The letters...
That's kind of sad. I liked Encarta, it had lots of multimedia integration that Wikipedia still lacks.
It suddenly dawned on me that I will probably never buy an encyclopedia for my own home. I...
Training only one part of your body will likely cause imbalance in your muscles. Pushups do exercise several muscles, but mostly in the front of your body. In particular, I suspect a plan like this...
I agree that the twin panel design is great!
For one thing, it makes it very easy to copy or move files. You don't have to open two windows or copy/paste, just open the source and destination...
This isn't news. The article is more than a year old.
Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook C1020, seven years old and still going strong. I have replaced the optical drive and the battery. (To tell the truth, many of my classmates who got the same setup have fared...
You can sell Linux distributions on CDs or DVDs and charge whatever price you want. The GPL doesn't forbid that. Services based on GPL software are usually not free, and in fact is many companies'...
I should have added a disclaimer to my earlier post: This quote is, in part, why I don't like Esperanto:
Do you know where it's from? ;)
No, but I do speak English.
Esperanto is an interesting idea, but it fails by focusing on being easy to learn rather than being a good way to express oneself. I don't think "easy to learn" is a...
If you bought your computer some time during the last five years, nothing is heavy. Hell, even my old laptop from 2002 with less than 1 GB memory can run both Gnome and KDE quite comfortably.
I...
Debian
Slackware
Red Hat
From there, you can go build most anything you like.
I can see where you're coming from. You look at Arch, or you look at Sid, and you say "wow, look at the recent versions of their packages. Ubuntu should have these as well".
But this is not the...
@bapoumba: OK, thanks for the info. As I said, I have the deepest respect for the forum staff and I'm sure everyone's working for the best of the Ubuntu community.
