(No, it's not a contest.) I play with several versions and want to do more. But, I'm a busy physician in western Wisconsin and time-limited.<br> <br> I've played with RedHat, Mandrake, Suse 10.1, Ubuntu (which this box is running), Xandros, Debian, Whitebox, and CentOS. I'm more comfortable than I used to be, but running scripts and command line is still problematic for me. I've been building machines from parts since 1990, but I stayed within Windows until RedHat 6.0.<br> <br> I'm trying to host several web pages, on a server at home. I'm privileged to have fiber optic all the way to the house, so speed is not an issue. I invested in a Cisco router. Now I'm trying to master Apache 2 within Ubuntu. I got frustrated wtih Whitebox and CentOS. I like the control packages in Suse 10.1, but 10.2 didn't like my hardware. <br> <br> I want to echo what Nelson said. I'm still mostly a novice, but I want to thank everyone who has contributed so far and I hope to get to the point where I can do the same.<br> <br> Michael<br> <br> Nelson High wrote: <blockquote cite="[email protected]" type="cite"> <meta content="text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="Content-Type"> Pete Biggs wrote: <blockquote cite="[email protected]" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">On Thu, 2007-09-20 at 00:35 -0400, Mike B. wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">At 9/19/2007 10:27 PM, Daniel J.

I am not very computer or Linux savvy, but used to use Whitebox for my home desktop and bailed when it look like it was done. I saw from casual browsing the web a few days ago that it was still alive and well but with a limited timeframe, so I switched back till the end comes. I'm not sure who to thank but I like Whitebox and with a few minor glitches from time to time it runs well and looks sharp. As a novice linux person, I want to thank everyone responsible for their hard work, expertixe and love of Linux in keeping Whitebox up and running. I don't know enough to contribute to the upkeep, but can appreciate what it takes. Once again, thanks to all and I interpret your emails as signifying the end of a distro but don't turn the lights off just yet cause I' m still here. _______________________________________________ Whitebox-users mailing list <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://beau.org/mailman/listinfo/whitebox-users">http://beau.org/mailman/listinfo/whitebox-users</a> </pre> </blockquote> <br> <pre wrap=""> <hr size="4" width="90%"> _______________________________________________ Whitebox-users mailing list <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://beau.org/mailman/listinfo/whitebox-users">http://beau.org/mailman/listinfo/whitebox-users</a> </pre> </blockquote> <br> </body> </html> --===============0260586804== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Whitebox-users mailing list [email protected] http://beau.org/mailman/listinfo/whitebox-users --===============0260586804==--
