The problem with running on MacIntels in Parallels is, that virtualisation on
Macs cannot be the future Linux market for Rev. The market has to be,
assuming it exists, people running Linux on off-the-shelf PCs.
So I would get a cheap base unit and a kvm, and put a few distros on in
multiboot

Which latest release? Is there one newer than 3188?

I have three, but I don't take them on the subway with me.
Convenience = productivity.
Productivity = shipping apps.
Shipping apps = Linux evangelism.

Hi Lynn,
I do use Ubuntu for testing my apps for Linux and for other works
occasionally. Few years earlier used Red Hat, Fedora Core 3, Scientific
Linux (based on Red Hat) but Ubuntu now is my favorite.
All the best!

1. Ubuntu (Gnome), because of its importance and popularity, and also
because of its social aspirations.

Im sure everyone is compiling those technical questions already :-)

true. Rev worked more or less okay on

Ask them why they don't have a drop-down option for Ubuntu
I wish I had not updated to Parallels 3188 -- the older version was rock
solid. I have had my WinXP image crash Parallels repeatedly too (even if I
never launch Rev.) I sent them a handful of logs yesterday.
Yup, you're exactly right. Hopefully they'll mop up the spill in aisle 3188

Occasional use of Ubuntu and Kubuntu (you really need things to work with both
Gnome and KDE desktops). Mainly SuSE with KDE as our standard environment
here. Agree though, that Ubuntu is making lots of waves for all the right
reasons. Cheers,

Hello.
I primarily use Mac, but my Linux distro of choice is Ubuntu. Last
fall I researched all the major distros (Suse, Red Hat, FreeBSD) and
it fell at the top (Although Red Hat did come close behind).
Thanks,

with a Linux option when my clients start looking into it.

is my favourite and have had no problems.

I've got a Kubuntu box at home and we're changing our red hat machines
at work over to Kubuntu as well.
