Subject: "Strictly Linux" distributions?
Date: Sun, 17 Jun 2001 03:08:51 GMT
Hello
I bought two "7.1" Linux RPM-based distributions, both of which
use their own, modified versions of the Linux 2.4.2 kernel but
both of which will now have to be upgraded to the Linux 2.4.5 kernel
to be of much use to me.
However, neither of the respective distibutors exhibits any
any interest in helping me do that at this time.
(They both seem to be becoming more like Microsoft all the time.)
I can of course compile the Linux 2.4.5 sources myself,
but I am forced to wonder if the new kernel
will be compatible with the rest of the old systems.
This is a mess even to try to talk about.
What I would like is a "Strictly Linux" distribution that does not
modify whichever version of *THE* Linux kernel it uses.
Is there anything like that available?
Thank you.

Consider dual-booting at first, just for those times when you are either
really frustrated or really have to get something done now (and you
aren't sure how to do it in linux yet). Also, if/when you do go
completely linux, having a small windows partition can be good if you
want to use wine to run an old windows game or other must-have windows
program (like starcraft or MOO II). At that point there is no need to
dual boot, wine can handle it - but it works better with the real MS
stuff (dlls i guess).
As for which distro to try, check out Mandrake 8.0. It has a few quirks,
but is prolly the most "user-friendly" distro around (if
userfriendly=mostly gui control panel type stuff). It is aimed squarely
at the desktop (although it can of course do the server stuff as well).
Since Mandrake is 99% (whatever that means) compatible with RedHat, you
can benefit from red hat packages and help just as much as from Mandrake
packages and help.
Or you might give Progeny a try. They are debian with an installer for
the rest of us (ie easy and pretty). Debain has a reputation for being
the most complete and most stable distro around. And since they aren't a
company, they cannot go out of business (Progeny is a company and
hopefully the won't go out of business).
No matter what distro you go with, be sure to check the hardware
compatibility lists. If something you have isn't listed, it might or
might not work. Even if it is listed, you might not get all of the same
functionality under linux that you do under windows - most companies are
not putting as much effort into linux drivers but won't release enough
info for the free software developers to write drivers that can take
advantage of all that the hardware can do.
Fonts might be an issue when you start - don't let that bother you. You
can get most programs looking quite good, but it is not as easy or as
automagic as under windows. Would you prefer a stable, free, high quality
system with lots of power and choice, or one that looks as good as
possible? (if the latter, you might look into apple instead of windows or
linux).
anyhow, good luck and have fun.

and how many people do u think actually would say "no" when they are
asked if they want to run the macro or not? You know damn well they will
hit whatever choice they feel is a more positive response in order to get
the dialog window to go away. In this case it would be "yes" and by then
the damage is done.
You may think MS gives people the chance to choose their own destiny and
in some cases that is true however you have to realize that Windows users
ARE TOO STUPID to realize they have the ability to do this or HOW to do
it in the first place. How many Windows users even KNOW what a MACRO is?
How many actualy would relate a Virus to a MACRO? People hardly
understand what a virus is in the first place, let alone a macro, and
therefore do not correlate the 2 as being bad when combined.

Obviously not in the Basic Input/Output Service since your refer to it
as a Windows function. I see no such thing in Windows Millennium.
There is a "Power buttons" box in "Power Options". Hopefully the
plural of "button" is not an omen. But I wont be surprised to see the
reset "button" added to the power "button" in the next Windows
"upgrade". I could hard wire the power switch to the power supply.
Between now and then, I can use either my battery backup or surge
supressor switch whenever I feel like ordering my computer to shut
down.

And how do you expect a dumb Windows user to even know to do this or to
know HOW to do this? People aren't smart enough to realize there are
options. Linux takes a proactive approach to this, each user only has
certain privileges. If they do somethign stupid they only wipe out their
own files, which serves them right. Windows on the other hand gives a
user unlimited power but yet doesn't teach them how to use that power,
and they don't find out any other way either so obviously the answer is
to be proactive about the situation. Be on the offensive, not the
defensive

double-clicking on naked-tennis-star.jpg.vb does not open the jpg
associated program. I don't know if it is the default or not, but many
users seem to have "hide file name extensions" turned on. but they are so
used to seeing extentions (on the internet?) that when they see
naked-tennis-star.jpg in their inbox they don't realize that the .jpg
should have been hidden if it were the real extension. This is how many
of the last few serious email virii have propagated - as a vb script
pretending to be a picture. So they think it is a picture and execute a
script instead (unknowingly) - so telling them not to exec untrusted
binaries / scripts is not going to protect everyone.
Also, subseven can pretend to be almost anything and can even pop up
appropriate error messages ("this does not seem to be a valid zip file. if
you downloaded it from the internet, try downloading it again" or some
such for subseven pretending to be a zip file) while in fact it is a
trojan that has now highjacked their machine.
This sort of thing is what i was refering to when i wrote about win users

When you find a laymen Windows user who knows about scripting, realizes
it's bad, and *knows* how to turnit off, let me know so i can write it
down in the record books.
Of course anyone can do it, but how many people realize they should and
KNOW how to do it as well?
I believe the argument stops here.

Excuse me? The large majority of software? For example?
Even if you can find some major piece of software that hasn't been made
into a .deb, you can still install from source or (if i understand
correctly) use alien to import an rpm package.
But i seriously doubt you could find a major piece of software that isn't
available already for debian. Small projects and short scripts don't
count because:
they are unlike to require sixty something libraries - which is how we
got on this topic - and thus would be relatively easy to install
some smaller programs / scripts are meant just to be put into $HOME/bin
and run from their by the individual user. So packaging is not an issue.
So what large majority of software are you talking about?

The NorthStart Horizon that I had was a true hard-sectored floppy
drive. Examination of the hard-sectored floppy diskette shows there is
one-index hole and 10 sector holes near the hub ring.
Apple was not hard-sectored. It only had one index sector hole near the
hub-ring.
Also in that day there was an attempt to prevent piracy by writing to
the floppy controller to move over the sectors or even change the sector
count. In other words you couldn't copy the diskette because the proms
would use the default settings. It was all done in software.

Hah, you got THAT wrong.
1) It was at an airline ticket-replacement office...where I had arrived
for the FOURTH TIME in as many days...and they still had not
accomplished the 10-minute procedure of making a replacement
ticket for my flight back home (which, it later turns out, was
stolen by one of their OWN employees in New York...but that's
another matter).
2) I didn't throw a drink at any wall.
I took out a 2-liter bottle of Coke which I was carrying SPECIFICALLY
for the purpose of adding a little bit of color to their brand
new white WHITE carpeting, furniture, and wallpaper?
Why?
Because they were VIOLATING the Warsaw Convention (on international
air travel) by not replacing my lost ticket IMMEDIATELY....and I
had no time to start some stupid bureacratic procedure when the
start of the next business day was 24 hours AFTER my return flight.
Thus...I decided that if they were going to act in a way that
cost ME money...then I would make sure that it cost THEM even more.
As soon as I started to do that...oh, boy, were they EAGER EAGE EAGER
to get my problem resolved PRONTO!
It's all fun and games until the customer starts causing you more
damage than you could ever hope to get out of him (in bribes)...
to do the job you're SUPPOSED to be doing in the first place.
It was REALLY funny watching one of the clerks run to get the very
same manager whom, only 5 minutes earlier, she claimed was nowhere
on the premises.
HAH!
Oh...and when the police came...and my friend explained how only
two days earlier...upon seeing a disabled Chechnyan war-vet while
we were going through the train station (lost 1 leg)...I pulled out
US $200 and gave it to him (as a simple soldier-to-soldier we all have
to stick together kind of thing)....the police were VERY much
sympathetic to my side of the story.
