Remember to upload .htaccess files, and .htpasswd files using ASCII mode. This is an option is available in most FTP clients. |

Xandros Open Circulation Edition Reviewed |
|
Thursday, 08 July 2004 |
|
Xandros Desktop OS is a GNU/Linux distribution that attempts to work right out of the box, as well as offer completely unrivalled compatibility with Microsoft Windows. Xandros has bundled a lot of software in with the Open Circulation Edition that we are reviewing. From a four step install to easy CD burning to one-click application installs, Xandros has proven that it, in many ways, is a desktop vastly superior to every other Linux distribution this reviewer has ever used. Next time my grandparents get a new computer, Windows will not be on it. |

Review: Fedora RC2 vs Mandrake 10.0 vs Suse 9.1 |
|
Thursday, 08 July 2004 |
Linux is starting to take the world of computers by storm. Corporate greed, insane legal licensing and constant Windows vulnerabilities are starting to take its toll on the general computing population, and many are looking for an alternative. For some Linux is the answer.
The Linux Operating System is very different than proprietary Operating Systems. Linux has a community based development model where many people, organizations and businesses jointly develop the software. With this style of development, there is no one entity that controls everything, but because of this, it is quite difficult to build a coherent system that will run on personal computers. This is where distributions come in.

MEPIS has three config utilities, KDE Control Center, Mepis System Center and System Configuration. Most of your desktop, security, user, system settings are managed from Control Center. Quote "The MEPIS System Center contains utilities for making systemwide changes that are unique in MEPIS or that are not easily done otherwise." EndQuote. System Configuration is for advanced config.
MEPIS uses Konqueror for file management which it does well. I do believe that XFM is superior to either Windows Explorer or Konqueror. I find it annoying to have to reset View in Konqueror everytime I open it. I can not comment on Gnome's file manager as I have not used Gnome. |
