Interview with Mike Angelo, Eagle Linux |
|
| Eagle Linux does not get much news coverage, so it's nice to see this interview with Mike Angelo, the developer of Eagle Linux, over at TuxReports: "What makes Eagle Linux stand out is that it isn't actually a tangible distribution. It lives in the form of a well written set of documents (how-tos) that describe, in detail, the steps needed to create a bootable Linux floppy or CD, however the CD based version provides the most functionality. Now that the web hosting services have been improved, an ISO image will soon be available for download for those who simply don't have the time or desire to actually create their own CD. As Eagle's feature set progresses, this will become a more popular avenue for that sector." Read the rest of the interview.

At one point or another gamers can hit the wall when using other OS systems such as Linux and Mac, as Windows has always been renowned as the OS of choice for the gaming community. In a lot of cases this has changed somewhat over the last few years with the use of virtualization software that helps to bridge that gap, and it can be quite successful to a point. Of course, when you virtualize another OS you can lose some of the performance, than say running a game natively, and with slowdowns and bugs comes frustration. We have listed a few resources that we think are worth a mention for different types of gamers, both online multiplayer and single player, see what you think:
- World of Goo. This is a great puzzle game that will keep you busy for hours, there's also a free playable demo version.
- If you're a online poker enthusiast we can recommend you check out the pokerlistings.com Linux poker page, it has a list of poker apps that are compatible with your OS.
- For the MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) crowds you could always take a look at Vendetta online, "thousands of people can play together, at the same time, in a single, persistent universe", sounds great!
