Linux advocates claimed that Linux would be a major player in the netbook market. Unfortunately, Linux turned out to be a complete flop, like it is in every market. Very few companies sell netbooks with Linux operating systems.
Anyhow, why did Linux end in failure in the netbook market?
This is Fedora Core 5 running on the Playstation 3. And Ebay believes installing open source software on an open platform (as is stated on Sony’s site) is a “copyright violation”. Apparently they don’t understand open source…so my auction of this unit was cancelled without notification. Thanks, Ebay… And here is the new version of the video with voiceover explanations: www.youtube.com
What is the difference between Yellow Dog Linux 6 Mirror and just Yellow Dog Linux 6? Is it ok if i put the mirror into my PS3? Will it work like the regular one?
How do I find out which partition number linux is running on?
I have five partitions, i found out with command prompt on windows.
I am trying to think of new ways to hand out linux to people who otherwise can not download it from the net. Is it legal to stand on a street corner and hand them out like flyers?

I was quite put out when this was suggested at the pub over the weekend.
I just choose to use Linux as I consider it superior.
Has anyone else experienced such sweeping comments.
Or do you hold that opinion and why ?
My friend told me that its more stable then Microsoft product, so I thought I would give it a try. Since I started using Linux, my computer doesn’t crash, freeze, or even slow down. It boots up 5 times faster, and shuts down faster. I would think Windows would be more stable since you pay for it and its made by Microsoft, which is one of the richest company’s in the world?
