CollegeLinux Released to the Public

Posted by timothy on from the best-folks-to-whom-to-release dept.

YOU ARE SO FIRED! writes "It seems that the Swiss Robert Kennedy College (with the aptly named website) has released CollegeLinux, a Linux distribution based off of Slackware, to the public. If only my employees could've used this in school - I wouldn't have to fire them so much! See the interview with the dean of the school for more information."

    sorry but I have to comment. First time ever and I have lurked for like 5 years, but you are ASKING for it!
    more like
    Setup.exe, [PRAY], [PRAY], [PRAY] *bam* you're screen is blue
    and you get no information about what is really going on to troubleshoot!
    I fucking hate the little blue bar that slowly fills as you install crap. Tell me what is really going on. I don't speak microsoft blue bar language!

    Collegelinux?

    So does it stay out late, drink a lot and not function well in the morning?

    "Hmm. Too bad it's illegal for you to rip them to Mp3, then you'd only need 22 CDs."

    rip software to mp3? well, i mean i could see it working for windows (its not like the lossy compression could possibly make it any worse) but i dont think the rest of it would work too well

    i think it's funny when people don't know jack about windows, or realize it's pretty simple to troubleshoot. they spend all their time in the 'linux world' reading god knows how many 'man pages' (how gay does that sound) so they know how to compile linux on their calculator.
