Kreuger Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Sorry if this thread is useless to you but I have to say yet again I'm so pleased with Linux. I just downloaded almost 400 upgrades (yeah it's been a while) in less than 6 minutes. Upgrading the whole computer at once rocks so much Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412164-man-i-love-linux/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney T. Administrators Posted December 25, 2005 Administrators Share Posted December 25, 2005 I am right there with you. You couldn't ask for a more stable, trouble-free (after it is set up), and easy to update system. It ROCKS! :yes: Barney Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412164-man-i-love-linux/#findComment-586968436 Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwolfe Veteran Posted December 26, 2005 Veteran Share Posted December 26, 2005 (Obviously) I really enjoy using Linux, too! :p However, why don't you update more frequently? It is so painless to keep a Linux box updated, it just seems odd to not be current.

Daylene Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Glad to hear you love it! I have been using Ubuntu for 2 weeks straight on this computer, and haven't looked back to Windows since.

Barney T. Administrators Posted December 26, 2005 Administrators Share Posted December 26, 2005 Man I Dont Love Linux!.... Well sir, this IS trolling. If you do not have anything useful to add to this thread, then move on to a forum of other non-Linux loving people. Fortunately, most of the members who use this forum are mature, thoughtful people. If you fit in, then fine. If not, keep on moving. :yes: Barney Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412164-man-i-love-linux/#findComment-586972937 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEVER85 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Ubuntu Linux was relatively hassle-free for me, but I always seem to end up going back to Windows, mainly because I can't live without Photoshop. :p If there were a Linux version, I'd be all set...and no, GIMP is not an acceptable alternative.

Kreuger Posted December 26, 2005 Author Share Posted December 26, 2005 I think it's bad that you can't have a proper chat about something, without getting ridiculously out of context.

I can understand your dislike for something such as linux but at least back up your opinion. Indeed. Someone comes in and says "I HATE TEH LINSUX!!111" and it ****s the topic. Anywho, I like Linux also, use it on my test computer and eventually in VMware, but since I've been using Windoze for so damn long, I may not be able to use Linux on a regular basis.

Yvo Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 I've always liked Linux, however Ubuntu is the first distro I used over 5 days without wanting to boot into Windows. After getting my Intel wifi to fully work (the 2200b/g is sorta/kinda broken out of box) I am one happy man. However it is begging to have the kernel upgraded to 2.6.12_10.25 from 2.6.12_10... but because my drivers are installed in a kernel dir that won't be used after I upgrade.. I am rather scared to upgrade as last time I upgraded the kernel to _10 from an older version and it broke the wifi. So I agree partially with markjensen. Upgrades are painless UNLESS its a kernel upgrade. With that said... anyone know how to disable checking for updates regarding the kernel, that way it wont beg that it needs to be upgraded. In fedora this is by default, but not the case in Ubuntu.

windows95isg8 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 I dont have a problem with linux, I use Windows tough, as it runs all the prgrams I like. Where linux does not. Simple as really. I use MSN messenger alot and Office, they dont work on linux. Now yes there are prgrams out like MSN and Office. But I Dont like the programs as much. Amsn is just lame. Till they make linux have more surrport, I will stay with Windows. I just want to add, alot of people on here say linux is g8, no bugs and that. It crashed on me a few times. and the linux I used came with a firewall, now if it does that. It cant be all that safe. But yes it is safer then Windows. No OS, is better. Both are good, both are crap. Use what one is write for you.

In fedora this is by default, but not the case in Ubuntu. When i'm using Ubuntu, and it needs a kernel upgrade it's always been fine (i don't have a lot of kernel drivers though), the only issue i have seen, is apt doesn't always remove the old kernel, it installs the new one side-by-side and sets the new kernel as the default in grub. what i also like about it, most of the time upgrading a core component doesn't require a system reboot (think Windows) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412164-man-i-love-linux/#findComment-586973442 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkusDarkus Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I am also impressed by Ubuntu Linux but I don't use it. I would only consider using it if had what I would call any 'real' applications that I can use with the same productivity as a Microsoft or Apple os which is a shame really. Until then I am perfectly satisfied with my windows os. :yes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412164-man-i-love-linux/#findComment-586973471 Share on other sites More sharing options...
