[By Demand] March 2009

**Anorion** · 19-01-2009, 01:45 PM

Dont just request, demand.

**MetalheadGautham** · 19-01-2009, 04:45 PM

There are several of them on the net, but one on PRINTED PAPER would be helpful for several newbies on dialup/without printers - An Idiots Guide to installing Ubuntu/Mandriva/Mint/Fedora could be put up in a handful of pages to help newbies dualboot distros with windows. Also include partitioning instructions.

And give Windows 7 DVD if its not already there in February Disc. A review and tutorial and advisory would be MOST welcome.

A netbook shootout would be unique and cool. But for a change, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE consider minimum market price inclusive of tax and warranty and use {Performance+Features} vs COST ratio as the final indicator when it comes to giving digit gold/silver awards. EEE PC 1000H beats Acer Aspire One in battery life, screen resolution and build, but is DEFINITELY not worth the money as much as Aspire One is worth its money, just for an example.

Dreamweaver CS4
Comodo Internet Security (64-bit) 3.8.61948.459 Beta

**Anorion** · 27-01-2009, 04:49 PM

Which distros do you want? We have already given the latest releases of Open SUSE (DVD ISO) and Fedora. Was thinking of Slackware 12.2... does anyone still want the new Sabayon release? Or anything else?

**MetalheadGautham** · 27-01-2009, 06:57 PM

^^Slackware ?

WHO do you think would be able to use that in the target audience ?
What next ? Bring in Gentoo, CRUX and Linux From Scratch into the Discs.

Don't scare the readers.

Digit is for guys like Ram Mohmmad Singh Joseph, not for linux geeks. Thats what I heard till yesterday.

Dark Star · 27-01-2009, 07:10 PM

Didn't I said KDE 4.2 Live CD

You can include upcoming Pardus 2008.2

Can you give FreeBSD 7.1?
If not give Sabayon.

Also give Parted Magic. It's only 75MB and would be useful for Windows users as well.

gopi_vbboy · 27-01-2009, 07:17 PM

I Demand latest Ubuntu n Archlinux

**MetalheadGautham** · 27-01-2009, 07:38 PM

ubuntu already given.

archlinux - if you can't download it, most propably you can't use it because it gets frequent, often weekly updates. Stick to SIMPLYMepis if you want a distro which is fit for dialup users.

thinknano · 27-01-2009, 07:49 PM

windows 7 beta +1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00

u said u r giving it on feb issue..
but it is ok as u ve given SUSE & fedora..

**topgear** · 28-01-2009, 06:09 AM

Ya. Windows 7 public beta would be great thing if digit guys somehow manage to add it.

For Linux Distro I want :

Sabayon, 64 Studio, Foresight, Scientific Linux

raghuraj1menon · 28-01-2009, 07:27 AM

How about reducing the price??... I just can't buy the mag at 150 bucks.....

I just said that slackware might be a bit too harsh as a first distro for most average readers. But yeah, most ppl say that installing and using it can really TEACH you linux and mastering it would mean mastering all distros. But I feel doing it is like learning all advanced functions of MS Excel. Doable, but not something simple.

Gparted

SystemRescueCD

Dark Star · 30-01-2009, 07:32 AM

NO to Gparted , better option is Parted Magic which has ext4 support as of now

Liverpool_fan · 30-01-2009, 11:25 AM

The Ubuntu Guide: http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/ which is freely available.

Though you guys have to ask the Author Keir Thomas for permission.

**MetalheadGautham** · 30-01-2009, 02:07 PM

^^There are several hundreds of free GFDL'ed ebooks available to learn linux. I think Digit can make a compilation of them and give in DVD.

But yeah, I strongly feel that it would be much much more benificial to have hard copies. These local street pirates make illegal copies of Harry Potter books and sell them for Rs. 40, but nobody is ready to make legal copies of UbuntuGuide and sell for Rs. 80.
