Top 6 Linux disadvantages (I was a bit over the top and said reason why it sucks, but I still love Linux) 1 – Around 20% of the Community are immature free loading nasty people who leave nonconstructive insulting terrible comments 2 – Fedora represents division and no unity with Linux Standards 3 – Sound problems in Linux & poor Support 4 – Graphics Performance & poor Support 5 – Bug Regression – many things used to work correctly in Linux years ago but these days does not work well at all such as Text to Speech, Voice Recondition, & Recording Screencasts. 6 – Poor Commercial Support – very little Commercial Companies support Linux because they think the Linux Community are Free Loaders who would never pay for any software or services.

This was the easy GUI way to reinstall grub2 releases.ubuntu.com GRUB 2 is the default boot loader and manager for Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and Ubuntu 10.04 onwards and many other operating systems. As the computer starts, GRUB 2 either presents a menu and awaits user input or automatically transfers control to an operating system kernel. GRUB 2 is a descendant of GRUB (GRand Unified Bootloader). It has been completely rewritten to provide the user significantly increased flexibility and performance. GRUB 2 is Free Software.

Screencast style Review and how to install Tutorial for Sidux Linux 2010-01 Hypnos Xfce 64bit. I demonstrate this OS running in Virtual Machine from the Live ISO. sidux 2010-01, a new version of the desktop distribution with KDE or Xfce based on Debian’s unstable branch, has been released: “Now that KDE 4.4.4 and kernel 2.6.34 have entered the archive, we have the pleasure to announce the immediate availability of the final sidux 2010-01 ‘Hypnos’ release. While waiting for the availability of KDE 4.4.x, ‘Hypnos’ development concentrated on overhauling the early boot sequence for live and installed systems with regards to concurrent dependency-based booting and the integration of kernel 2.6.34. sidux now uses CONCURRENCY=makefile and continues to embrace GRUB 2 on the installed system, with isolinux and an improved gfxboot theme on the live system. KDE-based ISO images can now make use of Partition Manager instead of GParted. As usual, a large number of individual functionality enhancements and bug fixes have been applied to the full package line-up. Original video production by the www.OSGUI.com Tech Show.
