Pekr 4-Feb-2009 [2605] | I was used to Fedora (hence RedHat), but will now move to Ubuntu Server too. So - Ubuntu on my side ... |
Robert 4-Feb-2009 [2606x2] | Debian |
best way to start small and I use it for all my servers. | |
Graham 4-Feb-2009 [2608] | Isn't Debian and Ubuntu support the same ? |
Robert 4-Feb-2009 [2609] | I think debian is (originally) more focused on servers whereas Ubuntu directly comes with GUI etc. |
Henrik 4-Feb-2009 [2610] | Ubuntu here too. |
PeterWood 4-Feb-2009 [2611] | Ubuntu for me too. |
Oldes 4-Feb-2009 [2612] | Debian, but Ubuntu is fine as well. |
ManuM 4-Feb-2009 [2613] | I vote for Kubuntu |
Kaj 4-Feb-2009 [2614x2] | Thereīs no difference between Ubuntu and Kubuntu for porting REBOL - as long as you compare the same versions |
There is a porting difference between Ubuntu and Debian, though; and between Ubuntu versions | |
Tomc 4-Feb-2009 [2616] | unbuntu |
Graham 4-Feb-2009 [2617] | that's a ubuntu variant? |
Davide 4-Feb-2009 [2618] | XANDROS ! |
Tomc 4-Feb-2009 [2619] | typo |
TomBon 5-Feb-2009 [2620] | debian |
ManuM 5-Feb-2009 [2621x3] | Anyone knows the difference between porting Rebol to Debian o porting Rebol to Fedora? |
I run R3-alpha A33 Linux/Fedora 2.6.18 (http://www.rebol.com/r3/downloads/r30-core-a33-p421.gz) in a Kubuntu 8.10 CD-Live ( I think it's based on Debian ) and it seems to work ( I can chat ) | |
And then, I download Rebol View 2.7.6 for Fedora (http://www.rebol.com/downloads/v276/rebview-fedx86.tar.gz) and it run perfect in a Kubuntu 8.10 CD-Live, better than Rebol View 2.7.6 for Libc6, Debian (http://www.rebol.com/downloads/v276/rebview-linx86.tar.gz),for the last you need to install libstdc++5 and gcc-3.3-base. | |
Alan 5-Feb-2009 [2624] | any thing that does not use KDE 4 |
Gabriele 6-Feb-2009 [2625] | Manu, there's no difference in "porting", it's just that when you compile it you may have different versions of libraries or header files. |
PatrickP61 6-Feb-2009 [2626] | RedHat for me |
Kaj 6-Feb-2009 [2627] | Thatīs right. The REBOL builds on Fedora donī t run on older Linuxes; for example Wolvix, which probably means all Linuxes based on Slackware 11 |
Alexandr 11-Feb-2009 [2628x2] | It seems to me that you have never heard/seen or tried Puppylinux, that's why you love Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora so much, I guess :-) If you try it, you would probably forget all those heavy distros. I run R3 ver.2.100.33.4.2 (cli only) without problem on Puppylinux (www.puppylinux.com). As Puppy linux is mainly based on Slackware, I suppose it would run there nice as well. Now we are waiting for GUI :-) |
(Kaj, I didn't mean you personally :-) | |
amacleod 11-Feb-2009 [2630] | I'm a big fan of puppy too! That's my main prob with most linux...bloat. Is not bloat the reason we are trying to get away from windows? |
Izkata 11-Feb-2009 [2631] | Hey, some of us started on Ubuntu. If I'm free on Spring Break I'm considering trying out other distros, but for now... |
Kaj 11-Feb-2009 [2632] | Hey Alexander :-) |
Robert 16-Feb-2009 [2633] | Since Debian 5 is out. Is there a simple upgrade path from 4 to 5? I know about "apt-get upgrade" but does this work without any hassels? |
Kaj 16-Feb-2009 [2634x3] | apt-get dist-upgrade |
Itīs always said to work without any hassels, but itī s never done so for me | |
Admittedly that was on several Debian derivatives, not on Debian proper, but I have my doubts | |
Robert 16-Feb-2009 [2637x2] | Well, I run a xen DomU but not on a LVM setup. So a backup is not that simple as doing a snapshot. |
I will wait, no need to update at the moment. | |
amacleod 17-Feb-2009 [2639x4] | Any reason why this one-liner will not work on my linux box: s: open tcp://:13 forever [close insert first s to-idate now] |
Gettting an Access Error: Error opening socket listening port | |
using latest ubuntu | |
or is there a daytime server for ubuntu...I searched google but no luck. | |
RobertS 17-Feb-2009 [2643x3] | I am having some issues running 276 rebview on the fractured Xandros that comes on an Asus Eee Netbook ... anyone else trying Rebol on an Eee (mine is just a linux Atom 900A) |
I have put eeeBuntu on a LiveUSB (the base version was only about 600 Mb ISO ) and may install that as my debian | |
There is also an eeeDora (Fedora) and an alternate debian (Easy Peasy aka Ubuntu-eee ) | |
Oldes 17-Feb-2009 [2646x2] | You are trying to listen on this port = running Time service from Rebol. |
you should use something like open tcp://localhost:13 | |
amacleod 17-Feb-2009 [2648] | same access error |
Robert 17-Feb-2009 [2649x2] | Have you checked no one else is using this port already? |
netstat -tna | |
Oldes 17-Feb-2009 [2651] | also try iptables -L if the port is not blocked |
amacleod 17-Feb-2009 [2652] | iptaables -L... I do not see any mention of any blocked ports... |
Izkata 17-Feb-2009 [2653] | To use a port under 1024 in linux you have to be root |
amacleod 17-Feb-2009 [2654] | I'm trying to get the daytimer from xinetd running... Not sure how . I see the daytime config file and turned of disabled and restarted xinetd but still can't readh it. |
