@GangsterishDerek Wine will only install your internet inside Wine. It won't make contact with Ubuntu. Also, you need to have internet to install wine, and there is no standalone installer, since every program installs from the internet.
If only I knew how the heck you did that! If only I could read the over-pixelated letters! I'm trying to figure out QEMU! Ahhhhhhh! The secrets abound. Just finding how to get it is an adventure. BTW...keep up the music.
@singleisawesome I dunno but to make a computer not lag when running VMware etc, a quad core is recommended. I prefer Intel if you're going to do VMware stuff.
Windows Seven is the most useful operating-system we have ever used. Me and my buddies downloaded it absolutely free at Windows7FreeDLXcom (replace X with . ) and have never had any troubles!
@ronyaldoloco1 It was a virtual machine running, not remote desktop. I would use virtualbox instead of qemu now this video is quite old linux has progressed a lot since this was made. I will upload a new video soon of XP running under Lucid in seamless mode.
@MultiYippee You don't need wine to run virtualbox. They have a linux version availible on their site. Virtualbox is also in the ubuntu repos on newer versions of ubuntu or you can download the deb from their website
@MultiYippee This video is three years old they used to have a deb availible on the virtualbox page for 7.04 i'm sure you can still find one laying around. You could always just update your distro to a more current version as well.
Ha ha ha its really hard to find clean download today. You could either find yourself downloading a file with virus or download a file after you signed up. Well I would go to the sign up.
Well if you want to go to clean but would take few minutes to download the keygen. Then here is the link:
Yes absolutely. If you find the desktop version is too resource demanding you can install xubuntu which is a little lighter on resources. Also the next version is extremely fast 10.04 Lucid Lynx which is due out soon. There have been many updates since this video was made.
i doubt you will get compiz or virtualbox working without some serious resource hogging. however ubuntu will run decent-ish. you can use a lightweight distro, or trim some.. most of the install packages from ubuntu.
i have trouble with 9.10 on old PC , crucially slow, i think it may be wrong GPU driver, but i dont have time (and "animus" to do that)... currently i run 8.04 LTS (LTS i guess :D) it works fine. my PC is HP500 (laptop) i quite forgot the specs... :D
Not quite true - you're still vulnerable to all the viruses that the Windows OS has. If you mean using Wine, then that's OK, because Wine isn't compatible with most viruses, because they depend on various security holes in the OS, which Wine hasn't replicated.
well say you have a small drive and prefer ubuntu over windows but don't want to dual boot and leave about 10 gigs for each system but at the same time you just bought an ipod touch and want to add music to it running win xp in a vm would be the best way to do that
I was running virtualbox which is a free virtualization software. It emulates a PC and you can install whatever OS you want inside of the virtual pc. Then you install Guest Additions and can switch to seamless mode.
We need a Good operating system which will support all drivers and softwares .. In the video it looks good that Linux has good Animated screen. but think in real what it can do ? will it support finger print authetication ? can a new Mobile phone connected and browse for files ? we dnt want to search for all packages in internet to enable something ...

Actually, Linux is commercially funded by Red Hat, IBM, Canonical and Novell, to name a few. Mostly in the server market though, but the desktop users get the increased stability required by servers. :)
My laptop came with a finderprint reader, i formated the entire HD on it, installed F11 on it and it recognized it right away (on windows, you would need to install 3rd party software that costs money).

@JamesManes Yeah on my Pentium 3 with 320mb ram ubuntu 7.04 ran smoothly. Now with ubuntu 10.04 I wait like 2 minutes just to get to the place where I type i n the password.
Ubuntu is the slowest linux ever made but have you ever tried a NORMAL linux? If you can show me a faster boot, then a debian's or gentoo's kde3 with kdm autologin enabled, then I believe you.

and what is funny is MOST computers sold today have windows preinstalled.
Yeah only way XP can boot within a couple of seconds is by using sleep and disabling a ton of services. Ideal for netbooks. Does Ubuntu support "sleep mode" as well? i.e. keeping power to the ram while switching all else off, never really looked past knoppix and DSL myself
I am not going to lie to people, linux is for geeks.
If something goes wrong you have to know how linux ticks to fix it. lol
But if you love programming and trying new things like me then linux is great! lol
Almost all linux distros have a sleep function but not all computers support it.
The sleep function may be helpful in some cases but it writes the entire session to the hard drive so I can imagine that it would decrease the life of your hard drive. lol
I'm calling it "sleep" but I think it's called "standby", the ram does preserve its power. I wish I knew more about linux. I understand directx isn't supported as it's from MS itself, but what about openGL? Must be a reason why it's called open..
Both have advantages and disadvantages, though. I mean by using DLLs you don't have to write everything from scratch. I like linux because compared to IIS it's easy to run an apache, PHP and a mysql server within a couple of minutes
I hope the future will bring us some good things. There are programs out there to "slim" down XP from scratch, I once had a 150mb xp. The future will hopefully get us to a point where I can just click things I want to be included in a linux distro and the custom ISO will be there to run directly from a USB stick, instead of the ext2 filesystem crap
Does ext3 have a lot of error correction built inside of it? I'm not a big fan of ntfs but it's the only decent FS that allows huge filesizes while ext3 has a relatively low filesize limit that will be reached in the next couple of years (16gb I think it was), so you won't be able to write 25gb bluray ISOs to your HDD. I've experimented with a USB XP version but the boot gets to me every time.. Linux has syslinux to back it up but windows has only boot.ini which makes it impossible to do anythin
Well no one thought we'd be exchanging 8gb double-layer DVDs over the internet a couple of years ago, so in the next couple of years it might become possible to exchange bluray ISOs. I don't understand the journaling of an HDD completely, but I'm sure fragmantation does occur, otherwise a lot of space gets wasted because files don't fit in between 2 other files, or the disc is constantly moving files which shortens the life and is a waste of power. So how does it work?
Well depends on the distro if you ask me. I've never seen a linux as big as a 15gb vista, but Ubuntu can get pretty bloated at 4~5gb. Although on a 1tb HDD like most people have nowadays, both are barely noticeable. It's mainly drivers which are hardly ever accessed so it's a good thing the harddrive isn't constantly crunching. I don't think I'd mind using linux.. I would definitely miss Office, Spartan and.. probably the real MSN. I couldn't live without Spartan, it costed €100!
A clean linux distro can be made with all the needed tools in only 100MB.
I find hard drives to be slow and eat up a lot of electricity so when i am not making any drastic changes to the linux distro I boot the 100MB distro into ram as to increase speed. The only downside to this is all data is lost.
Open Office is free for linux.
I have never hard of Spartan. o.0
They have a chat client that supports ALL chat protocols called Pidgin that works great.
Yeah, Damn Small Linux was made to run on a 64mb disk, I tried it and it's all right. Serious lack of drivers though! HDDs aren't that bad you know, mine uses like 2W so wutever. I would miss Microsoft office because I don't like OO, and Pidgin looks like it's from 1999 so I was never a big fan. I'm just rusted solid. Spartan is a molecule simulation program for calculating quantum chemistry, they're said to have linux releases but never really looked into it. Don't you miss windows software?
Well I happened to be a chemistry student so there's your application. It helped me a lot to understand the structure of hydrocarbons, although it can render basically anything; including huge strands of DNA and 2000+dalton proteines. I should probably look for another molsimulation program one day. Don't you hate typing the whole DPKG command just to install a program, though? I somewhat admire MAC and WIN for their double-click installers without the need of the shell
GCC? Is it capable of directly installing tarballs? Some distros have a built-in installer, but I never really looked past all the knoppix related ones
sorry if my previous answer didnt have much info on fragmentation as I am still learning about linux so mind me.
I will use a visual comparison to make things easier to explain for me.
When windows wants to defragment the hard drive it first dumps all files into one big pile and then quickly stuffs it into the closest folder so its just a big jumbled mess.
In linux when you boot up all files are automatically checked and sorted individually into their correct locations so its neat and tidy.
A "pile" is just a visualisation, though. If this neatness affects the random seek time, then I'll admit it. But seeing as both FSs hold a table of content saying where the data is, the seek time should be identical. I guess copying on ext2 and ext3 is slightly faster. Although in real life situations where thousands of small files are moved about (internet cache, gaming, etc), I think both filesystems offer the same performances. Why can't there not just be one uniform FS D:
not when it comes to stability and system resource usage, and im not being the loser if your the one who is losing your temper over a computer operating system, and about people saying Linux isn't stable that's only because you don't know how to use it, i don't even know how to use it
Wow you looser. You cant even get the naming right. There is no Ubuntu 7.0. 7.04, and 7.10 yes. Damn windows fan boy. Any computer would be about $100 cheaper if you used Ubuntu/Linux. You are clearly just a mouse pusher who just wants youtube, email, and porn. Anybody above your caliber of computer usage would appreciate Ubuntu for the flexibility it offers against shit-doze.
Hey everyone, look! It's an average computer user who uses his computer for email and youtube!! Don't be flaming a superior operating system. Go back to your closed-source faggotry.
He is a n00b who have the computer filled with vírus, do everthing extremaly slowy and is a gay mouse-pusher- if you ask him "what does Ctrl+Alt+Del", i'm sure he will don't know...
no mac and Linux are more alike because they both use the UNIX kernel, and making programs in any OS is good, its windows for gaming and office work, mac for videos, and Linux for servers
a few years ago a couple went out to dinner. later that night the babysitter called and asked if she could put a sheet over the clown statue in the kids bedroom. the father said "get the kids out of the house and I'll call the police. we don't own a clown statue." it turned out that the clown was a murderer escaped from jail. if you don't repost this message on 10 videos the clown will be in your bedroom tonight at 3am with a chainsaw
how do you get your computer to run both operating systems. im trying to get mine like that since my printer and other stuff are not compatible with lenuix
I am running an old compaq with a sempron 3000. It has ubuntu, and I want a copy of windows for some projects at work. Do you think windows would run faster on a dual boot, or would it be worth me running it virtually? I am going to load windows on it after work, I just don't know which I should do.

The other thing I don't like about linux is the lack of documentation on C or C++ libraries for linux. :-/

I'm calling it "sleep" but I think it's called "standby", the ram does preserve its power. I wish I knew more about linux. I understand directx isn't supported as it's from MS itself, but what about openGL? Must be a reason why it's called open..
Both have advantages and disadvantages, though. I mean by using DLLs you don't have to write everything from scratch. I like linux because compared to IIS it's easy to run an apache, PHP and a mysql server within a couple of minutes

OpenGL is for windows and linux but Directx is Windows only.
I like linux because i can do anything with it.
Windows uses DLL's but linux uses binaries and scripts to run programs.
I am currently making my own linux distro with LFS and so far its a pain but its going to be worth it.
autonomous2010 2 years ago
I hope the future will bring us some good things. There are programs out there to "slim" down XP from scratch, I once had a 150mb xp. The future will hopefully get us to a point where I can just click things I want to be included in a linux distro and the custom ISO will be there to run directly from a USB stick, instead of the ext2 filesystem crap
redtails 2 years ago
I personally like ext3 because it reduces the damage on your files if you have a crash. lol
a portable windows xp would be awesome. lol
autonomous2010 2 years ago
Does ext3 have a lot of error correction built inside of it? I'm not a big fan of ntfs but it's the only decent FS that allows huge filesizes while ext3 has a relatively low filesize limit that will be reached in the next couple of years (16gb I think it was), so you won't be able to write 25gb bluray ISOs to your HDD. I've experimented with a USB XP version but the boot gets to me every time.. Linux has syslinux to back it up but windows has only boot.ini which makes it impossible to do anythin
redtails 2 years ago
ext3 is a journeld file system so the files never get fragmented so thats why its faster for errors to be fixed then an NTFS file system.
if you have to have BIG files then use xfs instead of ext3 but it will be slower with smaller files.
Why are you writing blueray ISO images to your HDD? I think someone is mischievous! lol
I have NEVER used more then 10GB in the lifetime of a HDD.
hm... I didn't even know where was a portable xp.
Linux and Windows both have their problems.lol
autonomous2010 2 years ago
Well no one thought we'd be exchanging 8gb double-layer DVDs over the internet a couple of years ago, so in the next couple of years it might become possible to exchange bluray ISOs. I don't understand the journaling of an HDD completely, but I'm sure fragmantation does occur, otherwise a lot of space gets wasted because files don't fit in between 2 other files, or the disc is constantly moving files which shortens the life and is a waste of power. So how does it work?
redtails 2 years ago
This is very true.
I think some fragmentation occurs but not nearly as frequently as in windows.
After all generally speaking linux is smaller then windows. lol
autonomous2010 2 years ago
Well depends on the distro if you ask me. I've never seen a linux as big as a 15gb vista, but Ubuntu can get pretty bloated at 4~5gb. Although on a 1tb HDD like most people have nowadays, both are barely noticeable. It's mainly drivers which are hardly ever accessed so it's a good thing the harddrive isn't constantly crunching. I don't think I'd mind using linux.. I would definitely miss Office, Spartan and.. probably the real MSN. I couldn't live without Spartan, it costed €100!
redtails 2 years ago
Yeah thats why I hate Vista and Ubuntu.
A clean linux distro can be made with all the needed tools in only 100MB.
I find hard drives to be slow and eat up a lot of electricity so when i am not making any drastic changes to the linux distro I boot the 100MB distro into ram as to increase speed. The only downside to this is all data is lost.
Open Office is free for linux.
I have never hard of Spartan. o.0
They have a chat client that supports ALL chat protocols called Pidgin that works great.
autonomous2010 2 years ago
Yeah, Damn Small Linux was made to run on a 64mb disk, I tried it and it's all right. Serious lack of drivers though! HDDs aren't that bad you know, mine uses like 2W so wutever. I would miss Microsoft office because I don't like OO, and Pidgin looks like it's from 1999 so I was never a big fan. I'm just rusted solid. Spartan is a molecule simulation program for calculating quantum chemistry, they're said to have linux releases but never really looked into it. Don't you miss windows software?
redtails 2 years ago
I know HDD are not bad. Its just my hard drive. lol
Its noisy and old. lol
Spartan sounds VERY interesting but I cant imagine a practical use for it unless you are learning advanced quantum physics.
If you indeed are then I applaud you because I am still a Junior in high school. :-/
I am an at home computer programmer so no I don't miss windows one bit. lol
But I have recently started taking up OpenGL for python so I can make 3D games. xD
I like an OS that I can build on.
autonomous2010 2 years ago
Well I happened to be a chemistry student so there's your application. It helped me a lot to understand the structure of hydrocarbons, although it can render basically anything; including huge strands of DNA and 2000+dalton proteines. I should probably look for another molsimulation program one day. Don't you hate typing the whole DPKG command just to install a program, though? I somewhat admire MAC and WIN for their double-click installers without the need of the shell
redtails 2 years ago
lol dpkg is USUALLY only for commercial linux distros.
I use GCC, make, and make install for installing packages. lol
autonomous2010 2 years ago
GCC? Is it capable of directly installing tarballs? Some distros have a built-in installer, but I never really looked past all the knoppix related ones
redtails 2 years ago
sorry if my previous answer didnt have much info on fragmentation as I am still learning about linux so mind me.
I will use a visual comparison to make things easier to explain for me.
When windows wants to defragment the hard drive it first dumps all files into one big pile and then quickly stuffs it into the closest folder so its just a big jumbled mess.
In linux when you boot up all files are automatically checked and sorted individually into their correct locations so its neat and tidy.
autonomous2010 2 years ago
A "pile" is just a visualisation, though. If this neatness affects the random seek time, then I'll admit it. But seeing as both FSs hold a table of content saying where the data is, the seek time should be identical. I guess copying on ext2 and ext3 is slightly faster. Although in real life situations where thousands of small files are moved about (internet cache, gaming, etc), I think both filesystems offer the same performances. Why can't there not just be one uniform FS D:

not when it comes to stability and system resource usage, and im not being the loser if your the one who is losing your temper over a computer operating system, and about people saying Linux isn't stable that's only because you don't know how to use it, i don't even know how to use it
aidan160 2 years ago
Wow you looser. You cant even get the naming right. There is no Ubuntu 7.0. 7.04, and 7.10 yes. Damn windows fan boy. Any computer would be about $100 cheaper if you used Ubuntu/Linux. You are clearly just a mouse pusher who just wants youtube, email, and porn. Anybody above your caliber of computer usage would appreciate Ubuntu for the flexibility it offers against shit-doze.

linux server is better for games because it uses less system resources and it is more stable

and mac is editing (photoshop, and shit)
and i forgot what
Windows and apple are kinda related
they r verry comaptible
the best is to use linux to make a program,windows to test it,and Mac to refine it
Nodle66 2 years ago
no mac and Linux are more alike because they both use the UNIX kernel, and making programs in any OS is good, its windows for gaming and office work, mac for videos, and Linux for servers

Linux and Mac are basically cousins. If you know one, you almost know the other.
