OpenGEU - A new distro with a new name and a new look for Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| I am honestly pleased to give this package a complete 5 Pennie review. I can
| clearly state that this is everything is a distro I want, with little given
| way of the politics for the day with removing the codecs and having to change
| the name. I didn't really like Geubuntu because the Ge confuses the reality
| of the day. Eubuntu was already out there, designed as an education bundle so
| how do you communicate what is under the hood?

In search of the GNU OS - Success!
,----[ Quote ]
| Finally, after a couple of weeks of reading and false starts, I have managed
| to get my hands on the GNU OS.
| At first I tried using the prepared CD images, which I was lead to believe by
| the documentation I was reading that this was the easiest route for
| beginners. I didn't get very far with this method at all. I would get to the
| first reboot into Grub, and it would give me a file not found error.

In search of the GNU OS - First try

| Last night I sat down (with some caffeine and print outs) and had my first

| I could find over the past week or so and I was led to believe that using the
| prepared CD images might be a better option for a beginner.

,----[ Quote ]
| Welcome to the new year and another monthly installment of news about the
| Free Software Foundation and the GNU Project. This month we have news from
| the FSF Europe, the latest numbers on GPLv3 conversions, the annual Gfortran
| report from the GCC folks, a GLib development release, Stallman commenting on
| the GNOME's alleged support of OOXML, GNU Hurd news, and more.

| GNU Hurd
|
| Shakthi Kannan has been working on a high-level system architecture diagram
| of the main components in GNU Mach and the Hurd. After several iterations of
| accepting corrections and other suggestions on the bug-hurd list, he came up
| with a diagram that was generally agreed to be reasonably close (PNG image,
| DIA diagram).

Debian GNU/Minix
,----[ Quote ]
| Finally someone has seen the light and started a project that I called for in
| a previous article. This melding of the Minix kernel with the GNU userland is
| called Preventa, and seems to poke fun at the name Nexenta, a similar project
| using the Solaris kernel, all in good fun I’m sure, considering that the
| project leader’s blog is called “La Salle Debain” (a play on “Debian” and the
| French for “bathroom”).

The GNU Hurd
,----[ Quote ]
| This post was written for two reasons: one is to raise awareness about the
| existence of the GNU Hurd kernel and maybe bring it to the attention of
| people who want to help with its development.
