WinOS+QEMU+Knoppix 3.8 = WinKnoppix!
chronicon writes "As reported earlier Knoppix 3.8 was presented and CD's distributed at CeBIT recently. For those of us who were not able to attend, some kind folks have posted a torrent for all to enjoy.
Now, here's where it really gets interesting. Using QEMU (processor emulator) chris-uk has posted a modified version of Knoppix 3.8 that will run under Windows if auto-played, or if you wish, you can boot the CD for normal Knoppix. You can find the torrent here."
is it good or is it whack?
Knoppix is for Nazis. That's why I love it.
If you find this post offensive, don't read it! THINK ABOUT YOUR BREATHING! I am what I am because of how apes behave.
Death to all muslims! They are violent monkies!
I hope you like asparagus hon
You're that guy.
You might look at the douchebag boss with the coffee cup with disdain, as I do, but remember that he's the one fucking you in the ass, and the world always sides with the guy on top, as I do.
While I think it's cute that you think linux will be a viable desktop or that game designers actually pay attention to your concerns, I believe the time has come for you to ask yourselves why you've been involuntarily celibate for these last seventeen months. Because your urge to force computer preferences on the rest of the world is symptomatic of all that is broken with your personalities.
Microsoft is guilty of the same crime of trying to force their technology on the population, but they have money, and power, and many of them possess social skills requisite to being in big business. Linux fanatics on the other hand try to pull this and fall flat on their faces, because they aren't rich, they have no power, and their social skills prompt them to cry themselves to sleep in dark lonely corners.
Remember nerds- the rest of the world is that douchebag with the coffee cup, disapproving and scolding when you overstep your bounds. We might not lend ourselves well to sympathetic portrals in commercials and other media, but every night we can come home in a shiny expensive car, to a nice furnished apartment, and eat some pussy before going to bed. Our lives revolve around windsurfing or skiing with friends that you don't have, and some unfaithful extramarital sex on the side.
We laugh at you because you're different, you laugh at us because there's nothing else you can do.
Whenever I lay off employees, I always use pink slips. Last time I did it in person, I almost bit my tongue off trying to keep a straight face. Trust me, I don't remember you at all.
I love my job
I hear The Home Depot is hiring.
Seriously linux users, you're operating system wont make up for the fact that girls are repulsed by your bodies.
Slashdotters: You are all a bunch of faggots.
Do you hear me, you repulsive faggots? NO DIGG.
I've recently been looking into running Linux on my primary desktop to record music with.
Don't even bother. The software that is available currently is utterly unacceptable for any type of music recording. Don't get me wrong, there are a few programs that have a lot of promise, but as of now there is nothing noteworthy. I've definitely got my share of Linux knowledge and I have had great difficulty getting the simplest of things to work correctly. Compiling and running is one thing... not having your entire plugin system crash on you is another. Windows and Macs have wonderful VST and DXi instruments with useful interfaces and very fast algorithms. Linux' LADSPA, while from a programmer's stand-point is quite impressive, is by no means a user-friendly setup.
In a nutshell: The features are not there, the stability is not there, the usability is not there, and the overall effectiveness of the applications is just not there.
Can you patch the display drivers from windows through to knoppix so one doesn't have to screw with the poor Linux support and pain-in-the-ass installs?
Vol~
Yeah! Yeah! Wait! I know! let's fire the entire editorial staff!!!
