Submitted by fieldyweb on Sunday 13th of September 2009 12:59:14 PM Filed under
My first ventures into Linux were way back in 1995 with a copy of Red Hat, and i'll put my hands up, i just didn't get it, command line, when Windows had a GUI, nothing seemed to work, and a strange command set, but even back then, not understanding Linux, and wondering what the fuss was about, i will say, i was very aware of what this ment to the industry, and knew it was important.

Submitted by srlinuxx on Monday 31st of August 2009 07:15:53 PM Filed under

Light apps, tasteful eyecandy, handy tools, multimedia and hardware support add up to make this one of the best out-of-the-box desktops available.

Quick Tip: Old games can't find /dev/dsp
Submitted by srlinuxx on Saturday 22nd of August 2009 05:26:29 PM Filed under
If your old games, like UT, Quake2, or Rune, won't start or don't have sound due to the error "can't find /dev/dsp" on your modern Linux systems, it's because they were made when OSS (Open Sound System) was the preferred sound system in Linux.

Forget About Photoshop: Five CSS Hacks to Help You Stop Using Images
Submitted by Mary Riley on Sunday 19th of July 2009 02:06:23 AM Filed under
When you are laying out a new design for a web site, the last thing you generally want to do is create a ton of images for the layout. You might make a rounded corner or shadowed text in Photoshop, but that is wasted time if the client doesn’t like it or the website doesn’t turn out as expected.

Starting with Red Hat hiring Lukas Tyrychtr, who is a blind software engineer to lead the effort in improving Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Fedora Workstation in terms of accessibility.
