Uncertainty about Current DE/WMview story

http://crunchbanglinux.org – This is kind of a strange home-coming. While I've occasionally checked the crunchbang site and forums, it's been years since I actively used it (ie. 8.10 release).Back then, I wasn't thrilled about the direction that Ubuntu was taking, so I bailed ship for Debian a little before corenominal's announcement that crunchbang would be doing the same.

[Fedora] Out of patience with Ubuntu; help me pick my new OS?view story

http://ubuntuforums.org – For some reason, it seems that Ubuntu and I just weren't meant to be. Today marks the second time that it has crashed on me, completely out of nowhere, and refused to boot to the point that I have to boot from a Fedora live CD to even be able to use my computer at all.

Samsung Galaxy S3 vs HTC One Xview story

http://androidforums.com – I've posted this elsewhere but I think it is most relevant here at AndroidForums. This information is from various sources, but mainly from GSM. So don't flame me if it doesn't fit your opinions because I'm not being biased in any sort of way. (General)

Big Distributions vs small distributionsview story

http://crunchbanglinux.org – So I was quite busy the las couple weeks and missed all the drama about the supposed death of slackware.Good to read that in the end those claims seemed to be a bit premature.It however got me thinking, partly because of boredom as well, how much "sense" does it make to follow one of the smaller distros (BSD or Linux)?I for one have somewhat gotten hold of my distrohop urges and these da (HowTos)

Support MP4 Woesview story

http://androidforums.com – Hi, I just got this machine and although it looks the part, and feels great especially the keyboard, I'm having a problem. Can anyone tell me how to play MP4 clips on my Asus Ice Cream? I used search and found conflicting opinions. Do they need to be converted to another format? If so, which one? Or is there an app. (General)

[ubuntu] 512m ram, what should I do?view story

http://ubuntuforums.org – I have just been given a Dell Dimension 4300. This is great, because I also just got an LCD TV, and I wanted a pc to connect up to it. My needs are very basic, as I have other machines for doing my more demanding stuff. (Hardware)

Should I use Java, Java3d, Python or another languageview story

http://ubuntuforums.org – I am starting my dissertation and need some advise. I have a massive amount of 3D spatial data in spreadsheets that could be put into a database if needed. This data is coordinated for vertices of 3d polyhedrons. I need to manipulate the data and see the results in real time. A more detailed explanation is that I need a 3D State Model Engine.

Network Gateway Options for Small Office: Cisco 800 series router vs. Linux/*BSD (e.g. pfSense) on a white box vs. reflashed DD-WRT/Tomato/OpenWRTview story

http://serverfault.com – Our existing network gateway's hardware has just failed (it was a repurposed desktop machine running Debian + Shorewall that we threw together), and we're looking to replace it. For now, we've fallen back to using a off-the-shelf Buffalo WHR-G300N we've reflashed with DD-WRT, which served as our gateway previously. (HowTos)

what shell do you useview story

http://crunchbanglinux.org – I'm interested in zsh, and I did a little search here, but it seem like this hasn't been covered recently...What shell do you use, and why? Currently, I use bash, because it's the default and easy. (HowTos)

C++ or Javascript for Qt?view story

http://chakra-project.org – Hello! I am looking for opinions and I guess some clarity too.I want to learn programming in Qt, as I intend to develop some applications for work as well as, as a hobby, for Linux. From all that I have read about Qt, I have realised that Qt basically uses C++ or JavaScript for the coding stuff. Which of these should I learn? (HowTos)
