Tips for linux developers

I bought my first linux cd in 1997, it was Yggdrasil linux. It was very exciting, a free UNIX that I could install on my own PC! What possibilities!

Since then I have installed a few different flavours of linux, enjoying the challenge of trying to get it working before going back to good old usable Windows.

This week, while troubleshooting my brother’s computer problem, I thought I’d try the Knoppix linux distribution that has just come out. This is a linux that comes on a bootable CD and does not require a hard disk, the whole operating system loads from the CD. It started as advertised, even the Realtek NIC was correctly identified and configured.

My suggestion to the developers of linux: find a way so that when you click on an icon, the thing written under the icon happens. I think that this would make linux much more usable.
