Hey guys,
Australian Linux Journal is an Australian Linux magazine. I work on it,
but I'm here just to let you know it exists, and get any feedback from
those who've seen it or have ideas.
Its a real mag, 112 pages (no advertising) about doing practical, fun,
and useful stuff with Linux. Its written by people who use it at home
and work.
Its definitely not another `let's install Linux then leave you high and
dry' pocketbook (though we do include a Linux distro and have a guide to
installing it, we've cover much more than that).
Issue 1 contents:
Editorial
/etc/issue
Analysing the Analysts (a response to the Gartner group over their SCO
/ IBM analysis).
News
Reviews:
Openoffice 1.1 Preview
Xine
Crossover Office 2
Creating charts with Dia, Kivio and OpenOffice
VMWare 4
Red Hat Linux 9
Interview: Dan Shearer, developer of Samba, User Mode Linux and Debian
Desktop:
Installing Red Hat Linxu 9
Tweaking Your Linux Install Into a Multimedia Powerhouse.
Getting NTFS
drivers, access to your Windows partition, finding third party packages,
the best Linux multimedia apps, tuning your system for media playing,
games.
Server Side:
Three Delicious Recipes for Spam. Different methods for tacking
Spam
with the Postfix mail server, including the use of SpamAssassin as a
Postfix Content filter.
Development:
Using QT Designer
You can find it at every newsagency round Australia. Take a look, and
buy it if you like it.
If you have any thoughts or
suggestions I'd be glad to hear them - we're working on issue 2 as we
speak (which will likely have a new name, so stay tuned).
Thanks for your time,
Mike
