"Que?"

Could you rephrase this thread's title in the form of an understandable english sentence?

Kthxbye.

np: Electric President - Nightmare No. 5 Or 6 (The Violent Blue)

The reaction: confusion, as I have no idea what you're talking about/proposing.

Well, that too among other things...

a) He said "based OS" - based on what?

b) What kind of operating system has any (webcomic) characters in it? I'd take a file system, scheduler, drivers, etc. over that any day of the week...

c) Yes, I've studied computer science and write software for a living, but I still don't understand what that should have meant...

np: Contriva - Goodbye (8 Eyes ('96 - '99))

He could mean Original Story as well

I mean a mod of UNIX...but modded greatly.

Of course modding a *NIX based OS (considering most Unixen actually cost big money I assume you're talking Linux, BSD or OpenSolaris here) "greatly" is NOT your typical one-man job - nevermind providing prompt security and other regular updates for it.

(And no - slapping something together using SUSE Studio doesn't count as "greatly"...)

'Kay.It will be based on something already existing (Fedora or Ubuntu),but it will have 40 GB adds!

26_9



Sorry.Made a mistake.

And if I made this post...



#530:2x2 = 4 5 .

#517 - 100 strips have passed after this.

So Kat will be the picture display subroutine, and Art will be the drawing program/ bitmapper, and who will be the word proccessor, Jade?
As Sally Brown said to her brother Charlie, "It is a joy to never know what you are talking about."

The only thing I was going to make it is adding "the squirrel girls" on the Fedora logo.
That's all I was going to input from SA (exept the link to the site,maybe.)

And about "SUSE Studio". The question is - WHAT slapped and HOW slapped.
And HOW MUCH slapped.

26_9



And a last.
I have a list of programs,now it has ~278 progs in it.

26_9



So...now I am about installing it and making a raw package . In fact , I have to "fix" some moments first.

If you are going to slap something, slap Hillary.
Are progs some sort of subroutine?

26_9



Offtop: "progs" = "programs"

Well... the question is the quality of "info - symbiosis". Not the programs, but their cooperation.

P.S. Hilary ?!?!
P.P.S. I had have read "Guiness 2008 Gamer Edition" - well, now I know, what is the inspiration for Hilary.

GothGuru

GothGuru

So the operating system is composed of multiple programs?
I would like to read more about the inspiration for Hilary.
I did not realize the evil bunny girl spells her name with one l.
Perhaps you could create a new topic to avoid spamming this one.

26_9



Well, anyway.

When I've started this topic... I was thinking about so-called "chatbots".

GothGuru

Like this?

It would be cool to have simulated conversations with the characters.

I think what you have in mind is a "desktop theme", not a new operating system that's "modded greatly". If you were serious about wanting to customize the operating system in detail, you should probably start with a theme anyway, to see if you truly wish to continue.

For Linux, some links to get you started include http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=203093 , http://gnome-look.org/ , and the aforementioned http://susestudio.com/ .

It's pretty easy to create something simple like a set of standard backgrounds. If you're more ambitious, you can set up things like cursors that look like denizens and a trashcan icon that looks like OzBasic.

If you're more familiar with Windows, look for links such as http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/personalize , http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/desktop/default.mspx , and http://www.themeworld.com/ . No doubt similar sites exist for the Mac, but I'm not familiar with them.

26_9



OK. I have a Fedora and I want to create a special, giant (40GB) version, full of additional software, such as code optimizers, admin kit, compilers, science-for software and just such things as GUI installer for TarGz program archives.

What the hell are you trying to do again?
