Krishnan's weblog – A scribble pad. A hybrid microblog. Mostly bread crumbs of an internet journey.
For the last two weeks now, I’ve been playing around with computers and operating systems.
One thing comes out clearly. Open source software has come a long way.
In the last two weeks I tried SuSE 9.1, openSUSE 10.2, openSUSE 10.3, ubuntu 7.10, kubuntu 7.10, Mandriva 2008 power pack. I loved what Linux did to my PC.
I could never resolve the conflict between my nvidia geforce fx 5200 and the onboard i915G that kept preventing Linux from booting. I finally yanked the nvidia card out and settled for the onboard graphics.
Vista runs on my PC with an experience index of 1.0 and the Aero interface disabled. Mandriva rocks my PC.
Haven’t used Vista or XP in weeks. I dont think I need these anymore. I need to learn Linux to survive.

Learning Daily is a personal blog that is just as random as my thoughts. The navigation bar at the top and the search box may be the only things that will help you find something.
My present interests lie in sustainability, peak oil, debian, Web after 2.0, creativity and epistemology. I learn daily. I learn about everything under the sun and even those beyond it. I am a perpetual student whose believes that wisdom is the real reward for learning. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
