everyone can use linux
No, Linux is an operating system. Judging from the category: Your PS3 would be considered a PC after having Linux installed on it.
No. Linux can have several tasks and split resources between them. Linux would be considered a time-sharing system.
The idea behind Linux was to create an operating system that could run UNIX software, but would be free.
a "platform" is probably how you would describe the combination of hardware details and operating system. Examples -- ARM32/Android, x86_64/Linux
type on a Linux terminal: ifconfig Note: it is ipconfig in Windows.
Linux is a name for an operating system that was created by Linus Torvalds. It is an operating system in the since that you can run it like you would run Windows on a computer, but it is free. Linux is not an operating system in itself. Just like Windows is not an operating system in itself with Linux you have different distributions such as Linux Mint (which you should try) Just like you have Windows XP and Windows Vista Linux has different distributions. To a moderator of this site can you please move the question to the technology section. Thank You
Windows or Linux would be the best system for watching movies online.
Linux is a operating system, just like Windows and Mac OS. Unlike Windows and Mac OS Linux is free and open source. Some popular Linux distributions include, Fedora, Redhat, Ubuntu, Centos, and many more. If you would like to play around with linux try downloading a virtualization program and installing Linux on it.
That would depend on the Robot your talking about, but most robots do not run an Operating system, though some have been known to run Linux. Cheers! Joe
Yes and no. Yes, Linux has a GUI. Dozens, in fact, all running on the X Windowing System. No, Linux is not BASED on a GUI. Only Windows really has the concept of an operating system "based" on a GUI. To Linux, the X Windowing System and whatever you run on top of it is just another application.
There are many diffferent memory management techniques used in any Operating System, and Linux is no different. The answer is not simple and is beyond the scope of this type of question. I would refer you to any of the Linux kernel books for more in-depth discussion of the techniques that are used.
For a computer novice, building a Linux system is a daunting and complicated task. There are several online guides and other resources that can help you build a Linux system. However, it would be best to have some training concerning operating systems before one attempts to build their own Linux system.
