[By Demand] July 2010

July demand thread

demands can also be made by e-mail, story ideas and other suggestions (Fast Track ideas, design, demands for specific articles etc) to editor @thinkdigit.com
for DVD content, mail links or suggestions to dvd @thinkdigit.com

--only for DVD content--
Ok. Thinking of some more ways in which you can send us demands. If you use Free Download Manager, set the files for download, limit the bandwidth to minimal (3-4 bytes/s), export the download list, then mail us the list to dvd @thinkdigit.com. See if you can send us lists for the perfect 16GB content mix, so we'll get an idea of how much of what kind of content you want, and your demands as well.
Also, listing the common sites we hunt for downloads, there are more, but this covers most of the regular sections. If you have any other web sites, do post the links in this thread.

Ubuntu Studio is a media creation/editing derivative purposely designed for media enthusiasts. See details here.
However, for July i want slackware or fedora, gimp tutorials and ofcourse some new freewares

[azaad_shri75]

Well everybody faces problems at one time or the other in every OS whether its mac/linux/windows/bsd etc. Troubleshooting is not always fun but adds up to knowledge on how things work (in case of linux in can say as its opensource).
However i would like to have fast track on Mac- Snow leopard or opensolaris or Virtualisation using Qemu or Xen systems.

[Admirer Of Digit]

+1 for C++ tutorials , etc.................

[Anorion]

lol@"buntus" Did any mag give out the Netbook version? There are loads of multimedia production distros out there, many of them better than Ubuntu Studio. Digit has given a few of these out in the past. As for "Plugins for max,maya,photoshop" and "Brushes,gradients for Photoshop"... these are small enough for anyone who wants them to download them, and if we give them we'll just have to give tons of them, stuff that will not be useful to everyone, and it will just eat up space.
There is a detailed Netbeans tutorial in this month's issue itself. The IDE was given last month.
"after effects & premiere cs 5" are things that will run only on high end 64 bit machines. I guess this should be added alongside Autocad, Mudbox and Motion Builder, software which is equally useful. This would eat up about six gigs in total, and again very few people would end up using them. Smoke would be terribly useful to some im thinking...
No one posted any links
