Before the weekend away, I had been updating a 10.04 installation on an old spare PC and that worked fine so the prospects were good for a similar changeover on the main box. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ubuntu users must be spoilt because any MySQL installation asks you for a root password, a very good thing in my opinion. With Fedora, it just pops the thing on there with you needing to set up a service and setting the root password yourself; if I remember correctly, I think that openSUSE does the same [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the nice things about a Debian-based Linux distribution is that it is easy to pull a piece of software onto your system from a repository using either apt-get or aptitude. Some may prefer to have a GUI but I find that the command line offers certain extra transparency that stops the &#8220;what&#8217;s it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With Linux distributions offering you everything on a plate, there is a temptation to stick with what they offer rather than taking things into your own hands. For example, Debian&#8217;s infrequent stable releases and the fact that they don&#8217;t seem to change software versions throughout the lifetime of such a release means that things such as [...]]]></description>

Editing files went a bit haywire and creating projects had me pushing buttons with nothing happening. Whether this was a Java or GNOME issue, I don&#8217;t know but I [...]]]></description>

If so, 9.10 might be proving more of a talking point and you have to wonder if this is such a good [...]]]></description>

After a recent update, things got better with a live CD actually booting up a PC rather than failing to find a file system like those created with its forbear. [...]]]></description>
