Re: Linux / Open Source forum?

yeah, i know that to an average joe wouldnt know the difference, but it is not an emulator, i just know that wine developers get really upset because so many people call it an emulator, i thought i'd clear it up

Re: Linux / Open Source forum?

So I assume there is no need for a separate Linux/Open Source forums then.

Re: Linux / Open Source forum?

I guess that since there is not that many people who use linux on these forums, there isnt one tormod, as much as I'd like there to be one... but for now the CS section can probably handle Linux and Open Source questions. I still hope to eventually fork a Linux/Open Source forums, but its not until we get at least 2 to 3 times as many people using GNU everything that we sould probably consider it (and that will take a while )

Re: Linux / Open Source forum?

Of course, with a Linux forum we might even attract more Linux users, too...

Re: Linux / Open Source forum?

true, but it best be a darn decent section then, because linux users are not that easily attracted, we would have to have many questions and answers, debates and help out a bunch of people before we would start attracting linux professionals or hackers, but nothing is undoable...
