what linux versions run and look like windows?

Q. hey im looking for a linux version that runs and looks like windows. I know there are a few out there but which ones are the easiest and have the least problems with installs and internet ? im tired of these holes in windows and security problems.
Also if you have the link to that linux product you promote i would greatly appreciate it.

A. KDE kinda looks like windows.
So Linux Mint, open SUSE.
Don't get Kubuntu. It was unstable for me.

http://www.linuxmint.com/

http://www.opensuse.org/

...but remember that Linux is not Windows
http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm

Have a look at screenshots of different distros. You will find them on their site.

Is the word processor in Linux SUSe software compatible with microsoft word?
Q. I am looking for a portable laptop for school, and I do not want windows xp or vista. I really like the specs for the Linux version of the MSI wind, but I cannot find any information on the word processor in it. This will also be my only computer...so does anyone have any other suggestions for a good laptop?

A. The Wind comes with a version of SUSE Linux. You Should be able to install Open Office on it and have a pretty nice, Word compatible Word Processor.

Try Open Office on the computer you have now- There's versions for both Windows and Linux out there and make sure it does what you need it to do. I've got a link to my site where I have a few Free word processors listed.

Installing software for Linux is pretty easy. Even easier than Windows.

do anyone know where would i get a working driver for unichrome pro igp chipset driver for debian?
Q. i tried many drivers including those from the firms website but no luck...Has anyone successfully installed this driver in any of linux versions???The display is always flickering and hangs often.

A. Maybe this will help.

Q. I'm looking a linux version compatible with my wireless card but I dont seem to find any. I have SUSE 10.1 and it is not compatible, I think Fedora, Debian and others Ive looked are not either.

A. Wireless on linux?? You are very ambitious.

At school, how can you send a message to another linux computer using the linux version of command prompt?
Q. I have been trying to figure out how to send a message to another linux computer at school for a while now by using the linux version of command prompt. I have tried using the write command but it says I have write abilities disabled. I have also tried using smbclient -M accountnamehere and it always says failiure to connect to whatever account I tried to connect to. Any help would be awesome.

A. Maybe you as a normal user just don't have the rights to do so. It's probably so for security reasons.

what does the gnu require software developers to do when modifying linux version?

Q. What does the GNU General Public License require software developers to do when modifying Linux version?
distribute? Huh? I'm an idiot when it comes to this stuff can someone elaborate for me please... I have a 6 page paper and 4 midterms to study for. Help me out pa pa pa please!

A. The GNU License only requires that you license your modified work under the same GNU license. This is known as attribution. Beyond that you have no other legal obligations. As for distributing your work, I have two suggestions for you.
1. Google Code ( http://code.google.com )
2. Source Forge ( http://www.sourceforge.net )
Both are great for getting your project out there.

Is there a linux distro that will run most windows programs?
Q. I really like linux except for most of the programs i use won't work on it. Is there a linux version that will run Yahoo messenger 10, Itunes 9, Frostwire and google chrome? I really don't like pidgin because of the way i use messenger. I have had very little luck with wine.

A. In most cases there is a Linux version or an open source alternative

Looking For a Good Free Linux version for kids, that can run without a hard drive?
Q. My niece other uncle(on her father side) gave her old computer, it doesn't run. But thats not the reason I ask, I have a smaller old internet computer, that I feel will be better for her(as I am her mother's bother, and it has a less energy drain then the old Dell has). My niece is only five years old, and all she needs it for is playing games, and doing pre-school work or something.

The linux version should run from a CD, so it must be a small installation, it also should be kid friendly.
ubuntu I would like, as it is nice, and it has the look and feel of windows, but its to large for a cd, maybe several cds, or a Live DVD, but not a cd. The computer had a linux based cd, but it got loss down the line, and it was old, so anything that will run on a CD, that easy to install first off, because i tried to use Damn Small, but I didn't understand the installation process
Thank you basilb101, for clearifing, I thought Mr. Micro was misspelling ubuntu

A. I like the suggestion of Edubuntu but it is a big download/install and liveCD will slow the computer down, i would suggest an install of edubuntu or puppy linux (under 150MB), maybe you could splash out on a IDE compact flash card?
Puppy linux is never truly installed it just moves files from the disk/flash drive to the ram it needs 128MB (i think!) or else a hdd for virtual memory
EDIT; ubuntu/kubuntu/edubuntu/xubuntu are all availabl on a single dvd which would be alot faster than a 700MB download but i don't think edubuntu is available on CD

How can I install and replace the new Ubuntu Linux?
Q. Hello everyone !
I have Ubuntu Linux version 9.04 installed in one partition of my laptop. There's a newer better version that has just been released (10.04) And I want to install it, but at the same time replace the old one completely with the new installation.
What is the best way to do this ? The way that it's less error-prone, or the easiest way.

Note. I have Windows installed as well and I use GRUB for dual booting.

A. Ubuntu 10.04 at present is unstable

For the time being I would suggest staying with Ubuntu 9.04 or perhaps an upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10 both of which are fine releases

Looking For a Good Free Linux version for kids, that can run without a hard drive?
Q. My niece other uncle(on her father side) gave her old computer, it doesn't run. But thats not the reason I ask, I have a smaller old internet computer, that I feel will be better for her(as I am her mother's bother, and it has a less energy drain then the old Dell has). My niece is only five years old, and all she needs it for is playing games, and doing pre-school work or something.

The linux version should run from a CD, so it must be a small installation, it also should be kid friendly.
ubuntu I would like, as it is nice, and it has the look and feel of windows, but its to large for a cd, maybe several cds, or a Live DVD, but not a cd. The computer had a linux based cd, but it got loss down the line, and it was old, so anything that will run on a CD, that easy to install first off, because i tried to use Damn Small, but I didn't understand the installation process
Thank you basilb101, for clearifing, I thought Mr. Micro was misspelling ubuntu

A. I like the suggestion of Edubuntu but it is a big download/install and liveCD will slow the computer down, i would suggest an install of edubuntu or puppy linux (under 150MB), maybe you could splash out on a IDE compact flash card?
Puppy linux is never truly installed it just moves files from the disk/flash drive to the ram it needs 128MB (i think!) or else a hdd for virtual memory
EDIT; ubuntu/kubuntu/edubuntu/xubuntu are all availabl on a single dvd which would be alot faster than a 700MB download but i don't think edubuntu is available on CD

How can I install and replace the new Ubuntu Linux?
Q. Hello everyone !
I have Ubuntu Linux version 9.04 installed in one partition of my laptop. There's a newer better version that has just been released (10.04) And I want to install it, but at the same time replace the old one completely with the new installation.
What is the best way to do this ? The way that it's less error-prone, or the easiest way.

Note. I have Windows installed as well and I use GRUB for dual booting.

A. Ubuntu 10.04 at present is unstable

For the time being I would suggest staying with Ubuntu 9.04 or perhaps an upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10 both of which are fine releases

Q. I have been trying to figure out how to send a message to another linux computer at school for a while now by using the linux version of command prompt. I have tried using the write command but it says I have write abilities disabled. I have also tried using smbclient -M accountnamehere and it always says failiure to connect to whatever account I tried to connect to. Any help would be awesome.
