guy, i need some linux user to explain something to me
Qs: since ubuntu is derived from debian, so both run the same ".exe"?? can debian's ".exe" file can be run in ubuntu? thanks a lot
*
Well similar , there are slight variation on how ubuntu works. Basically you can install deb packages for debain to ubuntu , and it will work. It may rant about dependices , for instance ubuntu may install perl-1.8-ubuntu , the debian package wants a different version .Few others to take note

dont really understand... can u explain in layman term??(never use linux b4, just suddenly this question come into my mind and i cant stop myself for asking XD)

its like this

In order for you to play a game, you need DirectX 11 (the game is dependent on DirectX) , you'll be also needing nvidia physX (For instance).Thats what about

The thing is that at times linux is fuzzy about which verison , you can have many versions of the exact same thing. A good example is java , you could have two versions of java installed on your PC. The latest one and an earlier one as well. Its just to fullfil requirements of some program which may have been coded using older verison .


DirectX does this by having DX9 , DX10 and DX11 frameworks so all the latest games can still able to access the new stuff and older games can continue to use their old framework

Okay lah , to be honest with you it gets hot. In Windows its not the best , if you guys want i can post the temps. I am sure your BenQ temps are far lower then this. In Windows to be honest it completely sucks when comes to power management.

Does discussing about hacintosh fall under the sparow category?

Nah , its okay. No direct links to hacked copy of OSX. These days people go for retail

Those with S41 or benq with 9600gt - seriously try OSX. I am not joking. May have to change wifi card. The other option that i would like to share if you guys want to know is how to sniff traffic in the air. Like if you're in a hotspot , you can sniff on what other people are doing and other things.

always wanted to do that on my laptop, heck, always busy with things around me... ATi graphic + Atheros adapter look like good hardware to get started... tongue.gif

Atheros - yes

ATI - no

Basically apple has not made any mobility ati graphics for the macbook pro since the first generation. So its impossible to get Mobility versions to work. Desktop versions do work fine.

Your netbook , if it only uses N2xx + Intel GMA 9xx that would be pretty good. Dell Mini 10v is a good HacBook Air candidate or MSI Wind U100 !

gma950.. eh... not sure hp mini 210 using gma 950 or not.. atom n200 only or atom n200 and above?
send to benq shah alam there.. as long is gpu problem, they gonna fix it free for u.. and ur keyboard missing 2 keys thingy, they will quote u a price to fix it, but u can tell them no need to fix when they give u the quotation.. i've been there before.. fixed my s41 also.. totally free

The reason why Atom N4xx cannot is that the GPU itself is part of the CPU. Its much like how Core i series works. Thats why you have switchable graphics card. The GPU is in the CPU itself , in one chip. You can get N4xx + NVIDIA graphics and it would work

the hp mini 210 can run OSX , but again you dont get hardware accelerated graphics. Good way to test OSX though but does not give you its full power

Otherwise GPUs work will be done by CPU

Go to youtube , type ubuntu compiz

Have you seen MacOS X Expose and its 3d effects like wanna view all programs. Umm , what windows calls it , the windows + tab key. Cool Aero effect. Its something like combination of both for linux

Its really cool and it does not suck like Aero. It even works with older graphics card !

i just realize another plus from linux (am using now, live usb mode...forgot bring windows cd to reformat at office...)
normally we dont dare to open pdf files in browser rite, always download first...cos direct open will cause mega lag..
open pdf file in browser with linux, took less than 2 sec...
@pry,
OSX is the only way if we want to sniff into other hotspot and ppl system? can linux does it?
*
No need OSX

OSX just makes it easier to sniff , you need backtrack and willingness to learn and the right wifi adapter. Thats all

Soon you'll find Linux handles a lot of tasks faster and better then Windows.

Thats why I use OSX for normal day to day task and Windows for gaming and other things. Its cool , you should install it nevertheless and unleash the power

Oh wait , no antivirus. You can even open infected thumb drive ,edit documents and such !

Its just to make windows users more familar. Again if you dont like , download the skin making tool and customise your own skin. You dont worry about it. Hate the program , compile it yourself. Modify the OS according to what you like

There is no stupid Windows update or AV which or system protection which prevents you to interfere with it. Thats the beauty

Thats why I dont run 64-bit ubuntu , anyway

You gotta follow that , type in Terminal. Be familar with terminal. go to ubuntu forum and ask politely , people will guide you there. Once you master UNIX , there is nothing that is going to stop you

Get a Life CD

Let me see if I can give you the jar file

Anyway it runs flawlessly on OSX.

Java is part of most UNIX oses. It comes installed by default for most of the popular linux distribution. Before I get bashed by windows fanboys , this is why in some tasks OSX and Linux is far superior then Windows . Obviously there are some other tasks whereby Windows excels !

Hit me up via PM. If you have Linux installed , I can show you step by step guide on how to get it to work

Here is the code in Linux.

type

wget ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub4/resources/sof...mis/artemis.jar

after that type

java -jar artemis.jar

That will launch JAVA. Works for *nix a(wget and java) nd that should work for Windows , the final command.

too lazy to reformat my current hdd... (i can just swap out hdds right? nothing bad will happen right?)

Anyways.. erm... is the hackintosh tread still around? i went to apple byte and couldn't find it... (anybody can give me links to read how to install OSX?)

retail would work

anyway i got an atheros wifi card , and broadcom. If you want let me know. Anyway , you gotta use retail , guides @ over at my blog. Retail is the way to go nevertheless and yeah do not pirate retail casue its just cheap

From what I see graphics , sleep , sound should work , even ethernet. It can be el cheapo macbook pro

Please dont talk about distros , its just pirated crap. Please get retail (its only RM 129 way cheaper then Windows 7)

swap wifi card and you have working OSX !

Read my blog why distro sucks

Seriously I am not going to help out if you're using distro. It installs junks and other crap which you dont know

if you want to learn more about BIOSes , Internal hardware and such to tweak it. I recommend doing retail

Buying retail and using distro is like saying , just go buy genuine windows and crack it. Same thing

Change it to prasys.info and it should direct you to the correct page.

Anyway , If you have ATI graphics card just forget about OSX. Your next alternative is Linux. Trying Linux is the best and its the way to go. You gotta learn up , no choice. Nobody is going to teach you, you gotta experiment with it. but if you know how to use Linux , its a big asset to whatever you in whichever field that you plan to join.

bcoz majority of company used linux even in Biology field majority of the tools support linux and work well on it. like modeller software ~
prassy where can get those linux command example which with example, learn linux better learnt from the command list ^.^ ?
if the linux can support mainly my min requirement, msn and yahoo messenger I will go for it ^.^
my msn can not connect T.T
