Redhat has merged with the Fedora project, bascially what used to be Redhat Linux will now be called Fedora. The major reason for doing this is so there is a clear distinction between their enterprise product, and their consumer version. Redhat will continue devoloping Fedora, and incroporate change...

Open for Business reviews Mandrake 9.2, seems very impressive. We were especially impressed with the Discovery Edition's enhancements, but all of the different editions benefit from many of these improvements, as well as some that are beyond the scope of this preview. Four release cycles after Mandr...

Awareness is a big problem. In Sasi Arcade recently there was a software raid, so for 3 weeks they hid all their software cds. I tried to explain to them that they don't have to hide the Linux cd's as that is free/open source software, but they just couldn't comprehend that. Flyers with a easy to un...

Microsoft Windows and Office together are available for 40 dollars in Thailand. However, the Pakistan government shows no sign or realization that they can bargain with Microsoft. So sooner or later, things are going to come to a head. Nobody here is going to buy software for a hundred dollars a po...

Building a Linux Dial-up Server
Sometimes it seems that the world has moved entirely to DSL, cable, and other forms of high-speed networking. But the reality is it hasn't -- most of the world is on dial-up, and even in the US the majority of Internet users are still on dial-up. Even in areas where high-speed access is available, ...

One thing which needs to be done urgently, is to change the front page . It's just too plain. Maybe the news page can be the main page. I am sure recent forum posts could be integerated somewhere in it. Also I think the news posted to the site should deal more with Pakistan. For general computer/ an...

No, it won't take that long. People have been using 2.5 and saying its stable enough for many months now. 2.6 is just 2.5 in the process of being released as stable. With the next release, which should be around 3-4 weeks, it should be stable enough. Hell, even the first test release should be good ...

2.6 seems like it's going to fix almost everything which needs to be fixed. The following should make using linux much much better than it is currently. Kernel Interactivity and Responsiveness One of the areas of focus for Linux 2.6 has been in making the system more responsive for desktop users and...

linuxpakistan needs to have more information about linux. People do not understand what open source and free software is. Over here, free software means 30rs for any software under the earth. If people know/understand that linux is free to use, then especially in the business world people will be sw...
