Linux

Boot into Mandriva and shrink your XP partition to a reasonable size, then format the remaining space, minus a few GB, with ext4, and the few GB left over, format as 'swap'. You can do all this with gparted (I THINK that's included on the disk by default - if not you can download and install it from their repositories).

Then on installation just install the data onto the ext4 and register the swap partition as well...swap

If by "direct" you mean "with no router", then yes. You will need an Ethernet crossover cable, and to manually configure the Ethernet IP address. Set one as 192.168.0.1 and the other as 192.168.0.2. Set the default gateway to the other computer's IP address. You will then just need to set up file sharing services like Samba or NFS, and you can transfer files between them.

Linux shell is a programming language. its fully different from others progrmming language.

the script which is used in Linux quite tough to remember if we comparison to other programming laguages.

This isn't a straight-forward question to answer.

Desktop configuration is generally done in the KDE, GNOME, or XFCE (or another) desktops themselves, to set languages and themes and keyboard behaviour and monitor setting and the like.

Networking configuration may be done in a Graphical (GUI) app but it may be on the command line or by editing a text file.

Printing may be in a GUI app or in a web browser at http://localhost:631

Some distros, like OpenSuse and Mepis, have a GUI to configure mush of the system; other distros rely on the users to know how to use text editors and read the wikis at the distro websites.

The command "man ls" will tell you about the 'ls' command. The last part will be ignored because it isn't part of the manual entry for the 'ls' command.

The command as you can given it is most likely because you want to know what will happen when you issue the 'ls abcdat' command in Linux. The answer is that it will list out the name (in a short form) of the file or directory abcdat if it exists in your current working directory.

Linux allows full access to the source code. Windows does not. The command line has always proven useful when altering software. Windows differs from Linux in command line limitations as well. Linux provides a centralized location in which software and application can be controlled.

To get a list of every driver your system is using (except those that are compiled into the Linux kernel) type lsmod at the command line.

i do not know.sorry.what i do?

i want it's answer.please help me

There are so many different ways they can differ I can't really cover them all. Virtually anything in Linux distributions can be replaced. Even the kernel can be swapped out with alternate builds.

Usually, the most common changes are the default desktop and desktop applications for desktop distributions.

Sure can. Probably the best tool for this is gparted.

RPM files generally contain a pre-compiled binary. They are used for installation on systems that use the Red Hat style of package management. Source tarballs are just that; they contain the source code to the program. They are useful both for examining how the program works, and for adapting it to a different system.

No version of Linux is officially supported by Boot Camp. Assuming when you compile Linux From Scratch you include support for the Macintosh's hardware, it will work just fine when using Boot Camp to prepare the system.

it will be of the name which is selected by Govind.....

iPod Linux is a platform for running other programs on your iPod. You can run some simple GameBoy emulators, play specially encoded videos on non-video ipods, and read ebooks.

There's nothing about this computer that particularly limits what distro you can put on it. Ones that are more graphics-intensive, like those that use KDE or GNOME, may be slightly sluggish, but still usable.Those that use Xfce, Enlightenment, or JWM should be quite adequate. Examples would include Xubuntu, dreamlinux, gOS, ELive, or Puppy Linux.

An ext2 file system can be created through a variety of methods. The crudest method, where the partition occupies an entire disk, can be done on most Linux distributions with the command

mkfs.ext2 /dev/hda

Other frontends, such as cfdisk or GPartEd, will allow you to more easily create partitions of different sizes on the disk.

read, write, execute

It means that the file or directory is used for application settings.

Linux is a modern operating system kernel used by GNU/Linux systems like Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Debian, OpenSuSe, Fedora and many other.

Linux is mainly used for servers and embedded systems, but is gaining popularity in desktop system market.

you are going to want to ensure that you have some sort of photo manipulation software such as Gimp (Gnu Image Manipulation Program) if you do not currently have it you can install it by searching for it in the repositories or software center by its name.

yes
