Before the Christmas break, I promised that I would show 20 games for [Linux], proving that this operating system is great even for those who use their computer for fun. I decided to split the post in two parts, otherwise it would have been too long. This is the second part.

The development cycle for Linux Kamarada 15.1 is coming to an end. The Linux Kamarada Project is pleased to announce the availability of the Release Candidate (RC) for the homonym Linux distribution, which is now available for download.The Linux Kamarada Project aims to spread and promote Linux as a robust, secure, versatile and easy to...

This is the part 3 of our trilogy of posts about [VirtualBox]! You are going to see how to create a virtual hard disk and install [Linux] on the virtual machine, as well as tips for using VirtualBox daily. As the guest operating system, I’m going to use the [openSUSE]-based [Kamarada] Linux distribution.

This is the part 2 of our trilogy of posts about [VirtualBox]! You are going to see how to install it on [Linux]. I focused on the most popular distributions, but if you don’t use any of them, in the end you will find generic instructions, which should work on most Linux systems.

VirtualBox allows you to use Linux within a window, just like you use any other app on your familiar operating system. Do you want to use Linux? Just start it. Finished using? Just close it. That is handy because you can have your first contact with Linux without actually installing it. It is even handier...
