If it's not open it's broken.
I’m pretty sure I know the answer to this, but I don’t like it one bit.
So far the one big hiccup in my move to OpenSUSE has been with the Samba networking protocol. Though my NAS is plainly visible on my local network and all files held therein are easily accessible, for some reason I can’t stream video from it…
These days the vast majority of my photos are taken with a camera phone, but it’s nice to know that I can still use my fancy DSLR camera with my Linux computers when I want to.
Connecting my camera to a Linux box is no issue — it’s this pesky Camera RAW file format that I’ve been worrying about. But once again, Linux has you covered…
For the first the first time in more than a decade this former Mac user doesn’t feel like a second-class citizen when it comes to printing, and it’s all thanks to Hewlett-Packard and their first-class support for Linux…
I bought my first storage array in 2004, a LaCie 1TB “Bigger Disk Extreme” that failed almost exactly a year later — mere days after its warranty expired, to be exact. Unbeknownst to me, this bigger disk was actually four 250GB hard drives strung together. One of them went down, and brought down the whole thing with it.
I’m really hoping that history doesn’t repeat itself here…
At this point my options are:
1. To use Wine with another commercial SplashID equivalent;
2. Import my data into a Linux-native and proper FLOSS app, like KeePassX.
Guess which route I’ll be taking?
