Any one use Linux?

Postby <{SoF}>Kipp on Mon Dec 04, 2006 9:03 pm

I am thinking of switching to Linux strait up and getting rid of Windows. Does anyone use Linux. I am going with Mandriva or SuSE. I think I will duel boot till I find the one I like, and keep windows on till I learn well enough.

Has any one use TransGaming's Cedega engine for playing windows game son linux? I have used Wine in the past will little sucess.

My only requirement for switching is that I can play CS and if I can manage that I am all set. Got to have the essentials in life, right?

I have used Linux off and on for the last several years. For the server applications, I love it....but when it comes to desktop applications, I usually give up on it after awhile. I've had the most success though with Red Hats Fedora http://www.redhat.com/fedora/ It is extremely easy to install and has a very intuitive interface in gui. Be prepared to read alot of support forums to get things to work though. It can be frustrating when getting what you want to work requires getting 3 other things to work that you didn't know about first.
