Unix compared to windows 7




















You had better results than I did. The last time I tried Fedora 11? But after the DVD install completed and I rebooted the machine both distro's would completely blank the screen and X wouldn't even start properly. They left me with a big blank screen. With Intel hardware and the recent X server, all you do is open the "Display" applet and slide the monitor boxes to where you want them.

Very similar to what you do in Win 7. There isn't even an xorg. With separate Nvidia cards, same thing. No need for the "nvidia" driver. With a Twinview setup, you will need a minimal xorg. Apparently this proprietary company hasn't figured that out yet. Take it up with Nvidia, instead of blaming Linux, Trollmeister. Meine Fuhrer hast kein "Google Fu", jah? Also you seem to not be able to read correctly. Look at picture 2 in my slide show.

It clearly shows my trying to use the display application and clearly demonstrates that the application, Linux, does not even recognize that I have 2 monitors attached let alone allow me to drag the boxes around.

Please read the message the next time before making a fool of yourself. That particular genie left the bottle a long time ago. Now erasing Hard Drive. Here is a list of some of the nyms the flatfish troll has used NB: flatfish will often use the names of other posters as nyms : Sandeep Kumar, Abbie Diaz, achmed.

Plus many, many, many more. So nVidia botched their screen setup tool. What does Linux have to do with this? More like the troll flatfish couldn't set it up properly. Hint: You might even find this same post in the Ubuntu forums, dated April The fact is, wrt multiple monitors and the configuration of such, Linux is broken.

The screen shots plainly show this and only some kind of religious cult member could see anything else. As for your particular comment about multiple monitors and Windows 7, you plug them in and it works. If you think multiple monitors are a rarity, you are wrong.

It's a very popular option since the price of LCD has come down. One thing I have learned however, is the reason why this bug has been in at least the past 2 versions of Ubuntu without getting fixed is because people like you refuse to acknowledge that Linux, like all software, has bugs.

Instead, you take each and every discussion of Linux's faults and turn it into a personal attack. After you go into denial of course. Linus himself could mention an area where Linux needs improvement or where Windows does a better job and the cult members that seem to gather here would deny it and attack Linus as well.

Quite possibly this has already happened, I don't know. SuSE On restart, the driver autodetects the second screen and gives a startup window with options of extended or mirrored desktop. Mirroring would reduce the primary panel to x Since the system is a studio box, I need the real estate, so I select extended, use the graphic to position the second screen and uncheck the "Show on Startup" box.

Hitting "Apply" then "Save Configuration" kicks up a root password prompt so it can write xorg. Done and dusted. By the book and nothing goes awry. Dontcha just hate when people don't read manuals? I bet Flatty is one of those who plugs in a BT controller without installing the driver first then wonders why his composite capture card doesn't work If he had really wanted technical help he wouldn't have nymshifted.

As I said, you'll find the same post in Ubuntu forums dated April Flatfarce running out of original 'ideas'? In short: Because you don't have quite the smarts of a turnip linux is at fault?

You did not configure X to use Xinerama. And now you complain that you can't use Xinerama features? Are you a Mac user in disguise? How come you are that incredibly dumb? It is you who cannot read, mein Fuhrer.

You remind me of a lovely chap we have here. Same lack of reading ability, same unwillingness to answer the topic, same dazed promoting of Nvidia. They do work nicely for desktop effects and some gaming. The folks at intel are in the process of revamping the video drivers, and ubuntu 9. Even with 9. So, who hates intel? They seem to have done fairly well by linux, compared to most firms.

A: I'll have to get back to you on that. Heh, local humor from 'fortune': -- Q: Why should you always serve a Southern Carolina football man soup in a plate?

The same isn't quite so true of hardware, which still suffers from Vista's over-zealous attitude towards hardware signing and backwards compatibility.

Even if your hardware is capable of running Windows 7 it's unlikely you'll be able to exploit its capabilities unless the officially signed drivers are available for your device. With no DirectX 10 drivers for your graphics card, for example, you won't be able to enable the Aero Glass effects on the desktop, which is one of Windows 7's best features.

Worst of all, you're locked into the resolution data provided by your screen. Our test system uses two D cheap screens from Hanns-G. They're perfectly capable devices that work well with Linux, but we wasted days trying every trick we could think of to get them working with Windows 7, and in the end we gave up. If you found Vista's hardware installation frustrating, you're likely to have the same problems with Windows 7.
