Problems with the ext4 file system
A bug discovered in the development version of the next Ubuntu has shown that some applications may have compatibility issues with ext4 filesystem.
The problem occurs in the writing system disk configuration files of applications. In ext3 journaling mode and the "data = ordered" these files are written to disk every 5 seconds so that any changes made in the configuration files in practice are written to disk without problems.
If you're legal, use Open Office
"This copy Linex Legal" is a slogan that I use at the time the Junta de Extremadura to promote their distribution and how good it could estrapolar to Open Office today. Glogueando is gerund, I found this on UbuntuArte . Take a look that is priceless
"A promotional message from OpenOffice, cites that 35% of software in the world are pirated or illegal copies, we asked whether our software is legal and clearly describes the strategy of Microsoft.
"After years of unofficially tolerating piracy as a means of securing control of the market, Microsoft is now conducting an offensive to ensure that copies of their software is legitimate:
* Just bought AssetMetrix, a software company specializing in detecting what programs have installed on our PCs
* You are using Internet screening software to install copies of MS-Office on users' PCs.
* Worldwide, the Business Software Alliance is organizing efforts to prosecute those who violate their conditions - for example in the UK offers great financial rewards to any informer who reports to companies that use pirated software.
* Microsoft itself admits that clients have difficulty understanding the complexities of software licensing - it's easy to accidentally break their conditions. "
Note that OpenOffice is a perfectly viable alternative, and further copies are legal and will not cost you money. "

A distribution that has gained many adherents in recent months, what is your secret?
Jolicloud, a new operating system for netbooks
Joliclouud is a new operating system based on GNU / Linux computers designed for ultraportables. Those who discarded this alternative no longer have an excuse, because it has a user interface optimized for the screen so small (in some cases 6 ").
It is created by Tariq Krim Certainly seems more interesting and if you have the speed you are supposed to be, with the boom of netbooks will be a guaranteed success.
They also highlight the application icons that, as in most operating systems designed for notebooks stand out for their large size to make life easier for the user of teams that usually have very small screens.

Seen in: The Inquirer
It is no coincidence ... the British navy infected.
Relatively recently, posteabamos news regarding a course that used operating system derived from the British navy Windows XP. Although at the moment we watched the news with disbelief enough, now we see another that makes us believe a little more at first. Apparently a virus has invaded the British fleet, extending out of control so that according to The Inquirer have had to do with mobile communications-mill streams. According to reports from the concerned government weapons systems and navigation is not affected.
We assume that the news will be taken with caution though it seems that it is a joke. Here is the link to the original story for the loss of the less significant (detail) possible:

Real or taken out of context?
Ubuntu 9.04 will use ext4 at installation.
Ubuntu no longer news, this time we revel in the inclusion of the ext4 file system in its next release. A review of successful and ext3 as the first "benchmarks" that we see, will bring improvements in the performance of our system in terms of disk usage. Currently ext4 patches we have seen, but have not been many, give this new system a distinct advantage over their competitors and above all on ext3 already had its time.

Mandriva one 2009 vs Asus eee pc
After spending some time trying distributions that would suit my eee pc , concludes that it would be best to leave Ubuntu eee and wait for the official Ubuntu , but I found browsing a thread in which the boys had Mandriva with One 2009 claimed that its distribution could read all the hardware of an eee pc, without having to make any changes and even more in LiveCD mode, so tired of messing in Debian and Ubuntu 8.10 I decided to test it and the bottom line is more than satisfactory because it detects all the first (including wifi), runs fast and gives no problem with the installation, if not fijaros in this v ideo .
Those of you with an Asus eee pc and want a distribution that is stable, fast, with all drivers and most used plugins, you have to try Mandriva Linux One 2009.
