Thread: LINUX

By the way, if you want to get extra life out of old hardware, Try Puppy Linux.

There are tons of variants and it will fly even on an old processor.

Just download an ISO from distrowatch.com and burn it to a bootable USB using Rufus.

You don't even need to install it, you can just run it from a USB.

Actually I don't think it is. Perhaps you'd care to prove that statement.

I think the original Solaris has been dead for quite a while, with Oracle taking over Sun server business, the default OS is Oracle Unix based on Linux

Solaris was full of security flaws, if you still had a Solaris server after 2000 on the Internet, you were probably already hacked

Haven't you got homos to go to? ,
The OP has repeatedly told you to leave?
Harry who knows more about the technical than me says you have nothing to contribute why the continuous unwanted disruption are you lonely?

Personally, I think butters has a great deal that he could contribute if he turned his negativity into a more positive role. He certainly knows a lot about computing and has experience stretching a couple of decades and more. However, previous treatment by wannabees has made him look in a negative rather than positive way.

Personally, I see no reason why anyone should have to pay to use an inferior commercial product or application when there is a better one available for free that professionals use OR that professionals could use to get as good a result with a little extra work.

Agreed.

FTFY.

thanks for the support guys

I don't see how I came across as negative, I was simply telling you things straight. Some blind souls simply refuse to accept it. Granted, I like to do it "rough" but I am only trying to tell you how to save time and the worries associated with serious computing.

If you want to learn, do, but from my experience most users will give up after the first small roadblock, so why bother in the first place.

I am a Linux Pro, been a Slackware advocate since its first public release in 1994 (maybe before can't remember) and worked with Linux Kernel 1.5 (I think), recompiling it, and adding modules manually, editing .c and .h files in vi when compiling would fail

I am fucking hardcore, so pussies like harry don't really scare me with his silly baits, the fooking corporate shill

"Hardcore" fucking hell this is comedy gold.

anybody with a clue can do it, except the majority doesn't have a clue or are too lazy to bother with it. That's my whole point from the beginning, which as usual you completely missed with your common sense blindness.

and from your HTML skills and security skills on your silly home servers, I can pretty sure claim that you are a just little fraud or simply an incompetent IT guy. Having SLACKULA as your username doesn't give you an edge either to know your shit or give better advice.

LOL, keep whinging like a bitch or do something about the website I threw together over a lunchtime to mock you and your cretinous behaviour. The ball has been in your court for years now and you haven't done anything except whine and complain.

Put up or shut up.

I exposed you as a fraud and your answer was to create a website about me ? a bit creppy and stalking ?

and a 12yr old would have done a better HTML job on his lunchtime, your level is of a 4 yr old or a new learning amateur.

and told you already, I can't deny or ack anything I have done on your silly little servers but I do know where you live now

and no, I will not create a creepy website to brag about my exploits on your crappy servers

Clearly you "remember" all sorts of things in that dysfunctional imagination of yours, Buttplug.

But you're still full of shit.

What's that registry key that installs modems again?

No you don't, Post 1/2 of my address, even my soi number if you think you know it.

Even if you do know where I live you're too much of a cowardly wanker to do anything about it so I'm not going to be losing any sleep over it you tosser.

Unlikely.

This is why I'll never publicly post another question on the computer forum again, it devolves into Buttplug bragging about shit that nobody, not a single soul has seen, he's never answered one question but just continues to tell us we're all idiots.

I'd take the abuse if there was a kernel corn of help inside Butter's turds of posts, but there isn't, just insults and abuse.

Plus he's as thick as shit.

Stop pissing about with Linux ! Go out and buy a Mitsubishi or a Mazda instead.

to the OP
go to Boot and run Linux from a USB flash memory stick | USB Pen Drive Linux
have fun

maybe they should also hand build a x86 processor first
