Tux's secret obsession - Gaming under Linux
This is a short overview of the gaming scene under Linux. It tries to show that there is more to the Tux OS than simply Internet or data processing. Today there is a lot to discover about Linux and games.
Sharing Files with Windows
Linux achieves its windows file sharing ability with a great piece of GNU software called Samba. Along with SWAT (Samba Web Administration Tool), Linux can scale well to even heavily used workgroups.
The Apache Web Server
Apache is the web server software currently used by more than 50% of web sites worldwide. This will help you install and configure your own Apache web server.
The Mail Suite
Sendmail, Fetchmail, and Mutt are archetypal console based mail programs. Installed by default on most distributions of Linux, these applications are widely regarded for their superb reliability. This howto assumes that all the above are available for configuration on your box, and that you have a dialup connection to the internet with a single mailbox account.
Where's My True Type Fonts?!?
Some fonts on the Internet look pretty messed up in Linux because most of the web pages out there were written for Windows users and Window's True Type Fonts (TTF) are not included with Linux, Gnome or KDE! Luckily, Redhat 5 and newer has a Font server that will allow you to use any true type fonts on your Linux PC.
MS Office for LINUX: Cognitive Dissonance
Some of the Penguinistas delude themselves if they somehow think they'll control Microsoft from dominating LINUX or that the company'll somehow act differently. They can't and it won't. Having MS Office for LINUX sounds like offering yet more choice for the users but it's illusionary.
New iMac Linux Website
This site is devoted to Linux users who not only run Linux on their iMacs but iBooks as well as G3/G4's.
The 1999 Top Executives
The CRN 1999 Top Executives includes The Dark Horse Linus Torvalds and Red Hat Executives.
Boost Your Penguin Power
Recompiling your Linux kernel may sound about as fun as a root canal, but it's a relatively simple process that leaves you with a leaner, faster Linux system.
DNS
DNS, the domain naming service, is what computers use to translate domain names, such as linux.com, to an IP address, such as 216.200.201.193.
