I''ve been wondering lately, what language is Linux written in? I'm interested in
this, because my friend and I are considering writing our own distro. I know, it sounds like a bit
of a feat, but one guy wrote MEPIS by playing with the Debian source code. I think the two of us
could do something similar. /tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif'

I first tried Linux a few years ago, not because I was completely against Windows or anything like
that, but just because I had some free time on my hands. I started off with Mandrake 9.0 which was
very user friendly and Windows-like. After reading through a bunch of message boards and learning
which distros are good for what, I soon realized my current distro was great for Linux noobs. So
then I decided to try something a little more advanced like Slackware which I knew had a steep
learning curve. Since then I've been using Slackware as my main OS and couldn'...

Virtualization is a relatively arcane subject, but it is one which is very rapidly growing, and
apparently very "hot" in commercial enterprises. For the hobbyist with multiple computers (I have
8), it offers the possibility of taking snapshots of running, fully configured applications and
operating systems, and transferring some or all of them onto a single computer platform. First, it
saves energy. Second, once the conversion has been made from real hardware to a virtual "guest,"
the driver problems associated with moving from one hardware platform to another are sol...

What is the pros and cons of linux? Does it cost money to get or is it free?...

QUOTE "Linux" generally refers to an open-source Unix-clone operating system based on the Linux
kernel, written from scratch originally by Linus Torvalds and other smart people from across the
web. Although the linux kernel, which interfaces with a computer's hardware, is the core of the
operating system, many other programs are needed to form a complete operating system. Various
commercial and non-commercial groups produce Linux-based operating systems containing the kernel,
all necessary programs, and an installer. These different versions of linux are referr...

The basic libraries you'll want are libdv (DV-format decoding library),
libraw1394(IEEE-1394/firewire hardware access library), and libavc1394 (AVC control library, so you
can play and pause your camera via computer control). Please note that many broken libraw1394
packages do not properly setup the /dev/raw1394 device. If you encounter problems when running
dvgrab, kino, or other DV capturing programs regarding the raw1394 interface, try the following
commands to create the /dev/raw1394 device: Code: # /bin/mknod -m 600 /dev/raw1394 c 171 0 #

What Audio Editor can I use to create/change songs and things? What Web-broswer can I use for Linux?

Virtualization is the technique of running a "guest" operating system inside an already-running OS;
for example, Windows inside Linux, or vice-versa. This article compares four virtualization products
available for Ubuntu Linux: the free, open source Qemu; the closed-but-free versions of VirtualBox
and VMware-Server, and the commercial Parallels.

Well, I recently decided to switch over all my PC's to linux, and was stumped when I tried to
convert one of my laptops. It has a Dell Wireless 1370 wireless networking mini-pci card, based on a
broadcom chip. I tried to find a driver on the internet, to no avail. I found NDISWrapper, but
despite my knowledge of how to set up a web server on linux, I couldn't work out how to use it.
I found a graphic tool, but it was commercial, which ruined any use for me. I was wondering if
anyone here knew a free tool that would automatically set it up. A few other things: m...

There are several simple dvd-ripping tools available. vobcopy can be used. First you'll want to
mount your dvd (assuming the mount point is /mnt/dvd and is set up in your /etc/fstab): Code:
$ mount /mnt/dvdThen you can rip the main title using vobcopy: Code: vobcopy -i /mnt/dvdThis
will rip the main title only, similar to IFO-mode in DVD Decrypter. if you want to rip the entire
disc preserving structure, use Code: vobcopy -i /mnt/dvd -m.You can also use dvdbackup from the
dvd-create project to rip dvds in a similar fashion. 2. How can I backup a DVD using f...

If you have a dual-boot Windows/Linux system, you probably know this problem: you can access files
from your Windows installation while you are in Linux, but not the other way round. This tutorial
shows three ways how you can access your Linux partitions (with ext2 or ext3 filesystem) from within
Windows: http://www.howtoforge.com/access-linux-par...ns-from-windows
