This is usually a matter of contention. The most popular choices are Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Linux Mint, OpenSUSE, and Fedora.
Free operating systems based on Linux (e.g. Ubuntu) Unix based operating systems (e.g. Apple's) Proprietary operating systems that are locked into one manufacturer and therefore expensive (e.g. MS Windows).
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.
The kernel in the openSUSE operating system is based on the Linux system. It was developed by the community supported openSUSE project and was initially released in December 2006.
Any Linux-based operating system that is capable of multitasking. (I.E. doing more than one thing at the same time.)
Linux is a Unix-like system. This means that it is inspired or influenced by Unix in some shape or form (Linux started off from Minix), but it is not directly derived from Unix. However, BSD is based on Unix, and macOS is indirectly Unix-based because of its mixed heritage with BSD.
No, it is not OS is not a Linux based operating system. Giggles is a search engine and created Chrome Operating system. Linux is its own brand of operating system.
Android is an operating system based off Linux.
Not only can Linux be run on desktop computers, but it can also be run on servers and other types of computers such as tablets and embedded computers. Linux is an open source operating system that is based on Unix, and Unix was first used for computer server applications.
Linux *is* an operating system (In the strictest sense, it's a kernel, but since an OS core, unless it's in a microkernel-driven environment, can only be based on its kernel, Linux is still effectively the OS core as well as the kernel.), so it can only be used as an operating system.I am assuming this question is "Can Linux be used as an operating system *on* personal computers?" And the answer is yes!The Linux operating system is fully capable of running a PC, and there are countless GNU-based userspaces built on the Linux operating system to make desktop-focused Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu, Mint, or Fedora.These days, the hardware support in Linux is just as solid as Windows on PCs, so chances are you launch a Linux distribution on even a new machine, it'll have all your hardware working out of the box.
the kernal is the central part of the Linux operating system and determines how the system works - all distributions of Linux are based on this.
Free operating systems based on Linux (e.g. Ubuntu) Unix based operating systems (e.g. Apple's) Proprietary operating systems that are locked into one manufacturer and therefore expensive (e.g. MS Windows).
The Linux operating system can operate with cloud if you have amazon services. It is not necessarily based on the type of computing system you use at this moment.
linux isn't an operating system, per se, but most operating systems (if not all) based on the linux kernel have the ifconfig tool
Redhat is a Linux based operating system.
windows xp is a windows based operating system it has no serverbased only have client based desktop supporting operating system.
Adhiraj: Its name is Bharat Operating Systems Solutions(BOSS). It is a Linux based(based on DEBIAN distro of Linux) operating system (OS) in 18 Indian languages. BOSS GNU/Linux is a key deliverable of the National Resource Centre for free/open source software (NRCFOSS). The OS is endowed with Bluetooth for short range communications along with salient features such as RSS feed reader, PDF viewer to edit documents, 3D desktop & application tools in all Indian languages.
1.Linux is a generic term which is a kernel and has several distributions, whereas Ubuntu is one of the Linux kernel-based distribution. 2.Linux started its journey in 1991, whereas Ubuntu took off in 2004. 3.Linux was initially predominant among servers, making it hardly user-friendly among home and office users, whereas with the advent of Ubuntu, which was available on desktop computers, now becoming more receptive and friendly with home and office users. 4.Several Linux distributions are available like Fedora, Suse, Debian and so on, whereas Ubuntu is one such desktop-based distribution based on Linux kernel. 5.Linux is based on the Linux kernel, whereas Ubuntu is based on the Linux system and is one project or distribution. 6.Linux is secure, and most of the Linux distributions do not need anti-virus to install, whereas Ubuntu, a desktop-based operating system, is super-secure among Linux distributions. 7.Some of the Linux distributions are not desktop-based and dominant among servers, whereas Ubuntu is one of the desktop-based, is more user-friendly as compared to other Linux distribution.
