How to build a live Fedora CD using Kadischi |
|
Monday, 05 March 2007 |
|
Kadischi was created in 2005 by Darko Ilic specifically for creating Fedora based Live CDs. Although it is still in active early development, it is still quite usable. What this means to the average user, is that there currently are not any RPMs for Kadischi; it is only downloadable from CVS. Fear not, this is covered below, and it’s quite easy to build. |

|
Thursday, 01 March 2007 |
|
Patch management has
become an area of concern for business networks and home networks as well.
Updates and patches are continually developed by vendors to improve their
solutions. Most network administrators would know the chaos resulting from the
release of a new critical patch. PatchQuest is patch management software that frees administrators from manually managing patches for their existing
Windows/Linux installations. Linux-Tip tested the free edition , which can
manage up to 5 computers.

I have mixed feelings about openSUSE. On the one hand, it feels like a polished system, and that is reflected from the installation to YaST. Yet, if we take away YaST for a moment, then openSUSE looks a little weak. It feels sluggish, and has a user interface that isn't necessarily better for the user compared to a standard GNOME interface. It has the cost of deviating from the norm, while gaining very little from it. Compare it to, say, Ubuntu or perhaps even Debian, and openSUSE really doesn't stand very well. |

At the moment, existing application integration is supported for Linux and Solaris x86 platforms. The platform for 3D application development is available for Linux, Solaris and Windows platforms.
