Luckily, the only people I hear recommending Oracle's Linux is DBAs. All sys admins I know (including myself) wouldn't even consider it. RedHat all the way.
Interoperability = open standards, not open source companies jumping in bed with Microsoft. Thanks Boycott Novell for ruffling these bastards' feathers.
It's no a Compiz issue, I have it disabled. I think it's an issue with XRender. Supposedly Nvidia is working on a fix which will be released soon. I think I'll try patience instead of a work around.
I seem to be affected by this:
"Known issues
* Users of NVidia cards with the binary driver provided by NVidia might suffer from performance problems in window switching and resizing. We've made the NVidia engineers aware of those problems. However, no fixed NVidia driver has been released yet. You can find information on how to improve graphics performance on Techbase, although we ultimately have to rely on NVidia to fix their driver."
I have Quadro NVS 140M. I've tried using the nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new drivers, but the problem persists.
Slashdot Mirror
Nope, but it means that they will probably maintain a pretty big user base for a while south of the border.
I traveled South America for a year and everyone I know there uses Hotmail. When I show them Gmail, they don't see enough benefits to switch.
So if you already know HTML/CSS, why not learn Javascript? Use a web IDE if you can't install anything locally. http://c9.io/
and I will let you know if you should GPL it.
I would be upset.

Too bad Nvidia didn't fix their driver in time for the 8.10 release. Using VESA sucks. http://kubuntuway.net/
I wish they would write a version for Linux (good luck though!)
