smoltSendProfile

Le profil de smolt est un moyen crée par les utilisateurs de fedora pour avoir une idée sur les architectures et machine qui utilise fedora. Ce service a été repris par d'autre distribution Suse, mandriva, debian et bien sûr Ubuntu.
Avec cette page de statistique, on peut avoir une page qui décrit les drivers et configuration de notre machine. Comme le cas de mon desktop http://smolt.fedoraproject.org/show?UUID=fe9d3772-3dcc-4db8-8bed-7b4e2662d23f

system-switch-java

Cet outil est utilisé pour choisir entre plusieur JVM installer sur une machine. On trouve cette outil sur fedora et autre distribution dérivée.
Pour l'installer:
#yum install system-switch-java
pour le lancée on peut utilisée cette commande ou ajouté -t pour le mode text.
J'ai réussi à l'installer pour ma part sur ma machine mais j'ai pas compris comment il trouve la liste des JVM. En effet, il ne détecte pas ceux de SUN.
à suivre ...

Interview with Linus Torvalds

A curiosity: which is your favourite distribution, and which on e do you consider more secure?

I don't really tend to care much, I've changed distributions over the years, and to me the most important thing tends to be that they are easy to install and upgrade, and allow me to do the only part I really care about - the kernel.

So the only major distribution I've never used has actually been Debian, exactly because that has traditionally been harder to install. Which sounds kind of strange, since Debian is also considered to be the "hard-core technical" distribution, but that's literally exactly what I personally do not want in a distro. I'll take the nice ones with simple installers etc, because to me, that's the whole and only point of using a distribution in the first place.

So I've used SuSE, Red Hat, Ubuntu, YDL (I ran my main setup on PowerPC-based machines for a while, and YDL - Yellow Dog Linux - ended up the easiest choice). Right now, most of my machines seem to have Fedora 7 on then, but that's only a statement of fact, not meant to be that I think it's necessarily "better" than the other distros.
