What happened to new Ubuntu

New Ubuntu-general Linux technology-Linux technology and application information. I used to use Linux a long time ago when I was in college. At the beginning, I was not willing to buy a book because of my own skills. I thought I was so self-righteous that I could just download the disk and install it, when the fashion was Red Hat 9, a joke began, because the source code disk was downloaded and engraved. I can't install it at all. I just know that it should be a binary file.

Re-download and re-dial the disk, but at that time, I didn't know what the root directory is/, what is the swap zone, what is/home,/usr, and so on. The results were very obvious, I directly put all the disks into a grid, but I still haven't installed RH9, because I don't know I need a root directory and a swap zone. In this case, I don't have to go through it any more, I simply don't want to use Windows (I just wanted to use a dual-System at the beginning). I used a computer in the same dormitory to check Google. I first knew how to install it. I was so excited after I installed it. I was about to go through four levels at that time, regardless of him, I use the full English version. This result also attracted comments from my roommates. "Why is it not supported in Chinese? "Well, I want to use the English version.

Then, the first problem is to solve the problem of surfing the Internet. Otherwise, you cannot master your computer. Although this problem seems easier to solve, isn't it necessary to set up a Nic? Wrong. At that time, the school used a dedicated dial-up software to connect to the school server and then access the Internet. This is not the problem that can be solved by pppoeconf, I found the school's network administrator and asked this question. The result was that there was no dial-up software for Linux and there was no way to solve the problem. I had to ask about the school server, the result is that they use Huawei's switch device. Well, I went to Huawei to check it. The result was that he didn't care about Linux at all (at the time, at least). In desperation, he had to check what protocol the dial-up software was using, at least Huawei should not create any network protocols by itself. It is indeed a general protocol (I have forgotten that it is not the most commonly used protocol ), then I found the relevant Linux version of the dial-up software on the network, which allowed me to access the Internet. At this moment, I met FireFox, I am very impressed by FireFox's easy scalability.

If you can access the Internet, everything is much simpler. Use your own computer to solve the problem on the Internet. First, we solved the screen resolution problem. After a long time, I used VI recommended by everyone because I had to modify the configuration file. As a result, it was very complicated, no matter how familiar I was, it is called Number1, but the ease of use is exaggerated. After installing an official Nvidia driver, we can finally see it.

Can I listen to music first? Linux does not directly include MP3 players because of copyright issues. We all recommend XMMS, which is good. At that time, RH9 was using a simple RPM package management system. It was not complicated to use. For one dependent package, I am so dizzy. The rpmfind website has been around for a while. The most important thing is that it seems that packages of different versions are definitely not compatible and must be fully compatible with the version, I used XMMS for a whole day. When the first MP3 was released from the computer, don't say how proud it is. In Windows, at that time, we only needed the next Winamp, so we had a deep understanding of the complexity of Linux.

Next let's take A look at the movies. We recommend mplayer to continue with the nightmare. Okay, I started searching for the tree directory. Package A requires a bcd package, and Package B requires an EFG package, the E-pack requires the HIJ package again. After I finish it well, I will lose half of my weight. After a day, I will do well in the end. Don't be exaggerating. For me, I am a newbie, it took so long.

What then? To use the C compiler, you always need to find one. I don't remember what I found at that time, but at least I got to know the GTK +, WX, QT and other libraries and learned some basic content, I have written a book on QT and linux programming, but I can't understand it. At that time, I also saw some strange terms, such as pango.

I rented another book about RH9 and understood some basic concepts. The biggest achievement in the middle is to re-install RH9 and optimize the hard disk partition as described in the book, such as/,/usr,/home, /boot and swap areas were reasonably allocated, So I realized that there were no so-called CDEF disks in Linux, and they were all mounted with files. This was the case for devices, for example, cdrom is mounted on/media/cdrom, and the virtual optical drive can be directly used with mount. Using full installation instead of using default installation is really an improvement. Don't say how much hard disk will be occupied (RH9 is 4 disks at that time). When I keep tracking the tree, I have come to the conclusion that full installation is not a good way to shorten the life, and the tree to be pursued will be much smaller in the future, although it cannot be ruled out. This is especially true when you need to compile a program yourself.

Finally, I realized yum, a user-friendly Package Manager, and finally got rid of it from the pursuit in the tree directory of one package. Later, GOOGLE continued to address a lot of detailed issues. Now we can recall the support for USB under RH9.

Later, I realized that fedora core 4 was the latest product of Red Hat at the time. I changed to FC4 and engraved the disk to use FC4. When I used FC4, I knew Yum, therefore, all software is installed smoothly, regardless of XMMS and Mplayer. Then I used Linux on GOOGLE side, and found that I really started to use Linux every day instead of trying to implement a function for him, that is to say, it has been more than half a month since he was treated as an operating system for daily use. This is really a short learning time. For an operating system, in the days that followed, I used FC4, which was totally different from my roommate, I was very excited (I met each other when I was buying a disc and doing an automatic control experiment in the lab), because it seems like in China, my environment, there are too few people using Linux. After chatting with the two friends, they found that both of them were still prepared for installation and have not yet been put into practice. Day.

I have a deep understanding that the biggest reason why Linux cannot be popularized is that Windows has monopolized the market, so it must constantly try to be compatible with windows. Even on the core, the software on Linux has. I used samba to share files with my colleagues. I used openoffice to make PDF files and print them. (This was one of the pride of openoffice at the time, and now word2007 is acceptable) because the files stored in openoffice may not be compatible with office, the instructor's powerpoint slides are always unsatisfactory in openoffice. I use scilab to replace the matlab used by my colleagues, the reason is not that matlab does not have a Linux version, but that I have not found any CRACKING FOR THE Linux version. You asked me to buy a genuine version? I don't have any money. The obvious problem is that a large part of the ease of use of windows is caused by cracking. If there is no such thing, it is estimated that there will be fewer people using windows, however, no matter how much I want to say that I can get rid of Windows, I have finally arrived. Because the EDA software specified by the instructor does not exist in Linux. Although I have tried a lot of Linux VHDL and Pspice software, I have to give up at last, because we need to design a project with MAX + PLUS II, so. Finally, I can only reinstall Windows. I really need to consider this point to be a point that Linux cannot be popularized, because in China, all schools use Windows, and it seems that this is the only operating system (at least in my electronics system, it may be better in computer systems), so the software they use is Windows, I don't think about it either. Some of you are using Linux. If all computer staff require to use VC files for homework, I think it will be the same as mine. You can't afford it. Microsoft will give you a Linux.

After the course design was completed, it was not installed because the final exam was required. Later, I installed a dual system for my computer, one Windows XP and one FC4, but the most used was Windows. Later, FC6 was released, and I started to install FC6 on a dial, to be honest, I don't feel too much breakthrough. Instead, My computer crashed and depressed under FC6. Later, I used to use VS to compile C ++ programs and learn c ++, so I didn't care much about Linux. Recently, I saw a lot of messages about Ubuntu. I suddenly felt itchy. I started to install Ubuntu 8.10 and later found that Ubuntu 8.10 was an alpha version. I deleted it and started to install Ubuntu 7.10, currently, Ubuntu 7.10 is used.

For Ubuntu 7.10 from installation to normal use, I would like to make a special note. First of all, although I used apt-get to install and upgrade packages at the beginning, I later found that Ubuntu provided a new GUI software package management, which is a great breakthrough, I personally think it is more practical than 3d desktop. I think it is a prerequisite for the popularization of Linux to make the changes to the command line and configuration files even further disappear. Do not say how much freedom and advantage are there, what we need is the operation that many people call a little white. Otherwise, it is difficult to get popular. You must know that most people do not have the mind to study too many things. ease of use is the most important thing, so there are so many useless operations, however, simple operations can become popular, such as windows and dummies. This represents an advanced technology, that is, the improved user experience technology.

Then, install the nvidia official driver, just click a check box in the restricted driver, and then the application is complete, I am very touched to cry. In the end, I had to make a hot 3d desktop and get compiz. Well, the special effects are really exaggerated. At least I felt like this, And the cube effect was indeed gorgeous, the Effects of Various window conversions are indeed outstanding, including various widgets, but what I'm most surprised about is the animation option, which is simply converting the entire operating system into a slide, these include opening, closing, minimizing, and even menu pop-up of various windows. Special effects can be applied to the pop-up of tooltip. When I click all the random special effects in common sense, I find that it is too dizzy. Gorgeous to beyond the limit. So I made a slight change to the specific settings. Let's try it together. There are also a lot of online shows, and there are also a lot of shows, so I won't be ugly, but what I want to say is, ubuntu has improved its usability, including ntfs reading and fat reading and writing. This was a long time ago. Yes, now I can say that Unbuntu can be used as a daily operating system, but the premise is that you cannot be a game mad.
