| Article Title :: Fast Car Knoppix |
| |
| Small can be beautiful! Working with Knoppix for the past two years has been a joy. Two terms to describe this distribution, simple, elegance. See Knoppix is one of the many operating systems that runs from the CD, so it doesn’t have the hardware conflicts associated with many instruction sets between hardware and software.When first installing it, I could see that it had potential. All of the install routines were smooth. Registers, ship sets, in sync recognition. When you test operating systems daily, you get a certain feel for what works. And then sometimes, the dreaded hiccup. Programs lost it’s way. With Knoppix, no such encounters. Up pops the screen, elegance! Fonts rend (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Linux Dual Boot-How To Format |
| |
| Just the thought of a duel-boot scares many people away, but over the years it’s developed into an easier process. Most people are running Windows, so I’m assuming it’s your choice of preference:1.Re-install Windows. Look for a three line menu that reads something like; Do you want to install NTFS. Do you really want to install NTFS. The third line should read, Install FAT 32. These are just partitioning schematics.Note: If you can’t locate FAT 32, reboot and look for FAT 32 again. If you don’t succeed the second time, repeat until you can locate it. At the current (07.27.05), installs tend to work in this manner. It’s there, but you must go through this reboot p (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Linux – Keyboard Or Mouse |
| |
| Just stress testing one of the latest Linux distributions. Been testing it for about two months. You know, Linux has advanced some distance since 1992-1993. It looks great! Because Linux is customizable, I decided to change a few of the resident commands. These were not wholesale changes and everything worked out o.k. So I started thinking again. You know, that can lead to solutions you can’t get out of. In this instance, everything worked like a trusty timepiece.Why customize it? It’s much easier to navigate all of the menus within KDE or Gnome. Set-up most commands with my personal, seven set-ups. With seven set-ups, my self scribed moniker for the upgrade; most applications (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The Religion And Philosophy Of Small Internet Business |
| |
| I have always had a tendency to focus on the positive. We, all of us, know the negative details in society and governments. So why not focus on solutions? Most self-actualized grownups even solve problems in this manner.
Chances are we'll always have the mammoth corporations. Large corporations have their good and bad points. Click? Want to strike back at the aristocracy? Develop and advertise a business website. And it does not matter what country you are from either. Advertise your specialty 24-7-12.Why do I mention this?As more small entrepreneurs succeed, so will other small businesses and other small business and other small businesses. This is what we ascribe as the re (read full article) |

And the best part, its virtually free!As Fort business scurries to find solutions to the current Linux crisis, the Linux community triads on daily doing what we've been doing for the last 10-13 years... developing software, writing manuals, persuading pertinacious hardware vendors... and i.e. working with computers. But, there's a hitch. You can't put a patent on creativity and creativity comes from all sources and global regions... And big software companies can't hire everyone!
