I am from Turkey and the meanings of the software are pretty funny in pardus as well as its name.
it is like the software center… 
such as mudur: which translates to principle
I was one of the first ones to try it out back in the day it was released, and man, it sucked bad by then:)
I can help you out in any point if you want to make a video of pardus linux; i might be able to make it more interesting if you have a video

Hi, nice review, I’d like to share my insights, I am an overseer and developer of 13 Linux distro’s in the past and my conclusion is it all comes down to web based services and cloud applications on desktop, that’s the way everything seems to be going, and the most obvious I can think of, a lot like Chrome OS but the contents will use all the processing power on the computer, so it’s an end-point meeting in between, something like a 3D movie in XML, but the computer is doing all the processing.

You may want to review Arista. It’s a gtk based video/audio transcoder that does WebM. MyPaint is another good app that should be promoted!

@OperaLinux oh, I see it. Never, ever use your default desktop to do screenshots/screencasts… I make it a point to put all my files away (or just keep them somewhere else).

@thisweekinlinux
Thanks. There’s a good one at LinuxBSDos . com “Pardus 2011 Review”. What interests me about Pardus is the fact that it is built from scratch, not based on an earlier distro. Most of the reviews I’ve seen remark on Pardus’ stability (in a good way). Many complain about the fact that there are fewer packages in the repository; but, the wiki shows how to convert .rpm packages to pisi packages. (PISI= Package Installed Successfully, as Intended).

@thisweekinlinux The web was built by the military. Remember Arpanet? Anyone who thinks “information wants to be free” can be achieved after the Bill Gates vs. Gary Kildall episode, doesn’t understand capitalism. Innovation requires free and open collaboration amongst innovators. But once you produce something saleable, marketing departments take over. Look how Edison made a fortune out of an obscure light bulb patent he bought.

@Eiuvre to be honest, the one thing that’s really going to give Unity the edge in a lot of ways? Being a compiz plugin.

@mohanr2222 oh, like a history of Linux. interesting. I’ll think about that, thanks!

@deathsmileyinc awesome.

watching this almost makes me forget about microsofts existence..
January 23rd, 2012 on 2:12 pm
@thisweekinlinux like kinda the important milestones in linux or why linux has turned to something what it is today..
January 23rd, 2012 on 2:33 pm
@Edvinauskas1 good luck with it. I guess I’m kinda lucky that I don’t really rely on any Windows-only software for anything but work, and that’s only because they make us use Windows there.

@thisweekinlinux Hehe ive spent the whole morning and half the day to try to get it working in wine. I followed some tutorials online how to achieve it. Seemed simple enough but i had no luck. Its ok im reinstalling ubuntu right now and just gonna run it in VirtualBox. And keep my fingers crossed for Adobe CS and native DX to show up soon.
January 23rd, 2012 on 3:27 pm
@omnimanu working on installing it in Arch already.
I’ll see what I can come up with.
January 23rd, 2012 on 4:10 pm
Would you mind doing an updated review of Gnome 3.0 and tell us your thoughts about it?
January 23rd, 2012 on 4:40 pm
@mohanr2222 what sort of summary?
January 23rd, 2012 on 4:43 pm
i think you should make a summary of linux
January 23rd, 2012 on 5:05 pm
@Edvinauskas1 agreed, there. I know there are quite a few people who absolutely have to have Adobe products to do their jobs, so having them available for more platforms would be nice.
It might also be worth looking into running it in Wine (winehq.org if you haven’t been there)
January 23rd, 2012 on 5:28 pm
@thisweekinlinux Just tried them but they wont open a fla file. Its ok i might just install a vm with windows. I think i remember you talking about adobe releasing the CS for linux if there is enough people wanting it. Lets hope it happens!

@Freespire44 not in the slightest. the web was built on the concept that we all access the same network and everything’s equal. Saying that one person/company is more important than another is just wrong.

Jordan this may be some what off Topic but where to do stand on the issue of Net Neutrality? Furthermore there’s been talk about Verizion and Google are going to strike up deals with companies Like Micro-Soft and perhaps Canonical that their web pages will Load faster than Some third party soft ware company’s web site simply because they paid Google /Verizion more money. Do you think this is fair?
