Distribution (Bad) News: Kondara |
| Kondara project dissolution announcement: "We are afraid to announce that we will dissolve Kondara Project as of July 15, 2002, although this is a sudden decision. We would kindly like to ask for your understanding even it will impose trouble to the users and the supporters." More details and reasons in English and Japanese. Linux distributions come and go and unfortunately, Kondara is the latest victim; if interested, take a look at its project history. If you need anything from Kondara's FTP servers or its web site, grab it now - they will be closed on 15 July. Thank you and good bye, Kondara!

Distribution Review: Kondara 2.1 |
|
| TuxReports have written to let us know that they are building an overview of Kondara's latest release 2.1: "We are going to try something a little bit different from a review. We've written the introductory review and then we've added room for improvements. This should give everyone an opportunity to contribute in a positive manner." This is an interesting idea, because you can participate in the review by contributing your experiences and exchange views. The initial review is already quite thorough, so you can just a look at it, but if you've used this distribution, you are definitely encouraged to contribute. Kondara MNU/Linux is an experienced Linux distributor and is highly recommended to those who need both English and Japanese working environments. The overview is available here.

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!
