    Debian pushes development of kFreeBSD port

    Interesting question. I use Debian primarily, coming from Ubuntu and Mandriva. While the latter is built from Debian Unstable it lacks the quality that Debian Proper is known for. For some reason or another some Debian users dislike (or even hate) Ubuntu. I don't get that mindset. Ubuntu is...

    [college degree] CIS vs. CS

    I have a few responses to this which I will share: 1) Of course they make more than engineers, they're management. Different job*. 2) IT Managers don't necessarily need to know how it works or what's involved, or the technical specs of the machine, they need to know how to manage people...

    What do you want for Christmas?

    A new mattress so I can stop sleeping on my bedroom floor every night. Oh, and the strained ligament in my knee to heal.

    [college degree] CIS vs. CS

    Why thank you, Ruler. :) Gotta say that my blurb above isn't just from reading Wikipedia but experience too...Like you CodeBlock, I was looking into CS for college. But after taking a whole host of courses my freshman year I walked away with a BA in psychology. For my Master's degree, I...

    [college degree] CIS vs. CS

    CS and CIS are two completely different fields. The *only* similarity they share is the word "computer" in the subject name. Computer science is the rigorous scientific study of the information and computation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_science). Computer information systems...

    Music Production and FreeBSD

    I know of Ardour - I have not used it myself but it looks very interesting. LMMS on the other hand I have used (albeit briefly) i recognized it immediately as something which would function similar to FL Studio, which I do use. I didn't know they were also available for FreeBSD. It looks...

    Music Production and FreeBSD

    Well, the hardware interface I know we'll have to use. There is no way around that. It is probably more likely that some audio/music recording software is available for FreeBSD than drivers for the hardware. While I don't *know* this, I've heard that support for M-Audio units under Linux is...

    Music Production and FreeBSD

    Hi All, My friend and I are looking to build a digital audio workstation but we currently do not have the resources available for either a Mac or Windows with the current DAW software (Cubase, Pro-Tools, Ableton Live, etc.) Both he and I are quite familiar with Linux, but would also like to...

    How do I remove FreeBSD Boot Menu

    OK, thanks. Since this is not a production machine I'd like to just wipe the disks clean and just start from scratch, however that hasn't seemed to work. The machine I'm using has three hard drives in it and during the Debian install I erased all the partitions and deleted them, but for some...

    How do I remove FreeBSD Boot Menu

    Hi All, I have a FreeBSD system which has been repurposed with Debian. However the boot menu from FreeBSD is still on the disk and it prevents Debian from booting. When I start the system I have this menu like: F1 ?? F2 ?? F3 ?? F5 Linux So I press F5 and it brings me to grub...

    Which is your Favourite Linux?

    I don't have one favorite Linux distro, I use a few for different reasons. I think a lot of people on here do the same. Mandriva: Windows *desktop* replacement (websurfing, watching DVDs, games, fun stuff, etc) Novell's SLED: Windows *workstation* replacement (All work, no play!)...
