Kurumin Linux
Kurumin Linux was a Live CD operating system based on Debian. Its main features are the advanced hardware auto-detection (inherited from Knoppix) and a Portuguese user interface, and its main goal is ease of use. As of release 7.0, the size of the disk image is approximately 603 MB.
Version NG 8.06, based on Ubuntu 8.04, was released June 24, 2008, and was discontinued on January 29, 2009.
Features
The distribution boasts an open-source control center (a series of shell scripts and Kommander based panels) named ClicaAki (roughly: "ClickHere"), which features a series of "magic icons" that install software not included in the live CD (including games and proprietary video drivers) and configure a wide range of networking options. It also provides access to the Synaptic package manager.
The name comes from the Tupi word "kurumi", which means boy. The usage of the letter K, instead of the usual Portuguese spelling ("curumi" or "curumim"), brings it in line with KDE (Kurumin's default desktop environment), as well as with Knoppix.
The Kurumin control panel ( AKA ClicaAki ), has shortcuts to scripts that perform tasks like downloading and installing free games, with apps divided into categories and a short description of how they work and their differences. This control panel also has scripts for downloading and automatically configuring 3d video cards ( ATI and Nvidia ), a difficult task for novice users. Another feature of the distro is that it has support for many "winmodems", including some that have no official packages of drivers in the Debian repository, and also with scripts that automate the tasks of compiling and configuring the module. With this features, Kurumin spread the Gnu/Linux operating system in Brazil in a level never seen before. In the late of 2007 Morimoto said that the project would be halted or have its scope reduced. In November 2008 the project was officially discontinued.
Source
Kurumin Linux distribution was developed by a team of Hardware Guide and employees, aiming to be an easy to use system, geared especially for beginners and ex-Windows users. Originally Kurumin has been developed based on Knoppix, then moving on to also use components of Kanotix and other projects, besides being based on Debian packages. All components and scripts used are open, which also enabled the emergence of modified versions of the system.
Despite having made a great success and have been for some time one of the most widely used distributions in the country, the project eventually failed to attract a group of developers interested in participating actively in the development. This and other factors (including the justified charging around new features and improvements) ended up causing the project to be discontinued in January 2008.

What is Samba, and why use it?

What is Samba, and why use it?
Samba is a suite of programs that work together to allow Windows® clients to access a server's filespace and printers via the SMB (Server Message Block) CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocols. Samba allows UNIX® servers to behave much like a Windows NT® server and adds functionality and flexibility to make life easier for administrators.
In practice, this means that you can connect to UNIX disks and printers from:
• LAN Manager clients
• Windows for Workgroups 3.11 clients
• Windows 95/98 clients
• Windows NT clients
• Windows 2000 clients
• Windows XP clients
• Linux clients
• OS/2 clients
SGI offers Samba as a supported product for IRIX. Samba for IRIX solves the difficult problem of sharing data between Windows and UNIX clients. It does this without requiring any additional software on Windows desktop systems. Powerful, scalable Origin® servers can serve files to all clients in your network, greatly reducing the need for additional hardware, software, and network administration. Users become more productive with Samba for IRIX.
Why did SGI choose to support Samba for IRIX?
Samba for IRIX provides the best combination of features, performance, and data integrity among the available software solutions for serving files via the SMB/CIFS protocol from UNIX. It is the most widely used software of its type. This large installed base of enthusiastic users and the Open Source development model have enabled Samba to evolve quickly while maintaining very high quality. The major impediment to the use of Samba in corporate environments has been the lack of a commercial support organization standing behind it. By making Samba for IRIX a supported product, SGI is offering the best solution in the market for customers integrating Windows and UNIX clients.
What is the difference between Open Source Samba (freeware) and the SGI Samba for IRIX product? Why pay for something that can be downloaded from the Web for free?
Samba will still remain available as an Open Source product (downloadable from the Web) for those customers who are satisfied with running unsupported software. However, for those customers who require supported software and will not run their business on "freeware," SGI Samba for IRIX offers customers a unique opportunity to use one of the best software suites available for serving Windows clients from UNIX servers with SGI worldwide support. Now technical support, bug fixes, and software updates are commercially available for Samba for IRIX.
Samba for IRIX is based on the same source code as the Open Source version of Samba and all developments on Samba for IRIX are submitted back into the Open Source tree to comply with the Open Source licensing. The added value of Samba for IRIX is the quality assurance and integration testing of Samba with the IRIX operating system to ensure a quality product. From this extensive testing, SGI is prepared to offer Samba for IRIX with worldwide support. Samba for IRIX is very reasonably priced. And Samba for IRIX also offers unprecedented levels of performance and data integrity for sharing files between UNIX and Windows clients.
How much does Samba for IRIX cost?
Samba for IRIX media and documentation will cost $300 per server for an unlimited number of clients. In addition, a one-year support contract providing telephone and electronic assistance and software updates and patches is $1,500 per server.
What are the most significant challenges to implementing a file server in a multiplatform environment? How do Origin file servers meet those challenges?
One of the most significant challenges faced in heterogeneous environments is ensuring that all clients, regardless of their systems, can access and share the same data. Origin file servers plus NFS and Samba for IRIX allow both UNIX and PC clients to share the same data on a single file server. Scalable performance, data integrity, network backup, and high availability are some of the other important features that Origin file serving solutions provide.
What types of workstations can I support from an Origin file server?
Samba for IRIX provides the SMB/CIFS protocol on IRIX servers. This allows you to connect to any SMB/CIFS compliant machine, which includes LAN Manager clients, Windows for Workgroups 3.11 clients, Windows 95 clients, Windows 98 clients, Windows NT clients, Windows 2000 clients, Windows XP clients, Linux clients, and OS/2 clients. UNIX workstations will share files via the NFS protocol with Origin file servers. Apple® Macintosh® and Novell® clients will require additional software to connect to Origin file servers (e.g., Syntax TAS, Xinet FullPress, etc.). With the advent of OS-X, Apple clients can access an Origin file server using either NFS or SMB/CIFS.
How does NFS work with Samba for IRIX?
NFS is the de facto file serving protocol used in UNIX client/server environments. NFS and SMB/CIFS file services can reside on the same server, thus allowing seamless sharing of files between NFS clients (UNIX workstations) and SMB/CIFS clients (Windows PCs) on a single file server platform running NFS and Samba for IRIX.
Simultaneous access of the same file by both a UNIX user and PC user can cause potential problems to data integrity. Accessing the same file at the same time may corrupt the file for one another. However, SGI prevents this potential problem by providing kernel oplocks support within IRIX. File locks and file opens are visible between both protocols, thus ensuring that PC clients are aware of UNIX changes to data and vice versa. Data integrity is thereby preserved.
How is Samba for IRIX administered?
Samba for IRIX administration is simplified through the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). SWAT is a Web-based tool, which allows for easy management and administration of key configuration files for Samba server set up. Since SWAT is Web-based, administration of Samba servers can be accomplished using standard Web browser software from any computer on the network.
For example, some of the configuration parameters that can be managed using SWAT include:
• start/stop of the Samba application
• create/delete shares
• set user/guest access to shares
• manage connections to Samba server
• create/delete printers
• set workgroup and netBIOS naming
• set up security modes, manage logging options
• set tuning parameters
• specify print commands
• set up WINS server and browsing options
• view current Samba configuration.
The main samba configuration file is a text file so it could easily be modified using your favorite editor. There are also command line tools to ease remote administration over slow network connections.
What version of IRIX is required for Samba for IRIX?
IRIX 6.5.22 and above.
What is Open Source?
The basic idea behind Open Source is very simple. When programmers on the Internet can read, redistribute, and modify the source for a piece of software, it evolves. People improve it, adapt it, and fix bugs. And this can happen at a speed that, if one is used to the slow pace of conventional software development, seems astonishing. For more information please visit www.opensource.org
What is SMB?
SMB (Server Message Block) is a client server, request-response protocol for sharing files, printers, serial ports, and communications abstractions such as named pipes and mail slots between computers. All Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95/98 and Windows NT systems are (or are capable of) running SMB as a client, a server, or both.
What is CIFS?
CIFS, or the Common Internet File System, is a specification for a file access protocol designed for the Internet. CIFS is based on the existing SMB (Server Message Block) protocol that Microsoft® Windows operating systems use for file and printer access.
Samba is a suite of programs that work together to allow Windows® clients to access a server's filespace and printers via the SMB (Server Message Block) CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocols. Samba allows UNIX® servers to behave much like a Windows NT® server and adds functionality and flexibility to make life easier for administrators.
In practice, this means that you can connect to UNIX disks and printers from:
• LAN Manager clients
• Windows for Workgroups 3.11 clients

However, for those customers who require supported software and will not run their business on "freeware," SGI Samba for IRIX offers customers a unique opportunity to use one of the best software suites available for serving Windows clients from UNIX servers with SGI worldwide support. Now technical support, bug fixes, and software updates are commercially available for Samba for IRIX.
Samba for IRIX is based on the same source code as the Open Source version of Samba and all developments on Samba for IRIX are submitted back into the Open Source tree to comply with the Open Source licensing. The added value of Samba for IRIX is the quality assurance and integration testing of Samba with the IRIX operating system to ensure a quality product. From this extensive testing, SGI is prepared to offer Samba for IRIX with worldwide support. Samba for IRIX is very reasonably priced. And Samba for IRIX also offers unprecedented levels of performance and data integrity for sharing files between UNIX and Windows clients.
How much does Samba for IRIX cost?
Samba for IRIX media and documentation will cost $300 per server for an unlimited number of clients. In addition, a one-year support contract providing telephone and electronic assistance and software updates and patches is $1,500 per server.
What are the most significant challenges to implementing a file server in a multiplatform environment? How do Origin file servers meet those challenges?
One of the most significant challenges faced in heterogeneous environments is ensuring that all clients, regardless of their systems, can access and share the same data. Origin file servers plus NFS and Samba for IRIX allow both UNIX and PC clients to share the same data on a single file server. Scalable performance, data integrity, network backup, and high availability are some of the other important features that Origin file serving solutions provide.
What types of workstations can I support from an Origin file server?
Samba for IRIX provides the SMB/CIFS protocol on IRIX servers. This allows you to connect to any SMB/CIFS compliant machine, which includes LAN Manager clients, Windows for Workgroups 3.11 clients, Windows 95 clients, Windows 98 clients, Windows NT clients, Windows 2000 clients, Windows XP clients, Linux clients, and OS/2 clients. UNIX workstations will share files via the NFS protocol with Origin file servers. Apple® Macintosh® and Novell® clients will require additional software to connect to Origin file servers (e.g., Syntax TAS, Xinet FullPress, etc.). With the advent of OS-X, Apple clients can access an Origin file server using either NFS or SMB/CIFS.
How does NFS work with Samba for IRIX?
NFS is the de facto file serving protocol used in UNIX client/server environments. NFS and SMB/CIFS file services can reside on the same server, thus allowing seamless sharing of files between NFS clients (UNIX workstations) and SMB/CIFS clients (Windows PCs) on a single file server platform running NFS and Samba for IRIX.
Simultaneous access of the same file by both a UNIX user and PC user can cause potential problems to data integrity. Accessing the same file at the same time may corrupt the file for one another. However, SGI prevents this potential problem by providing kernel oplocks support within IRIX. File locks and file opens are visible between both protocols, thus ensuring that PC clients are aware of UNIX changes to data and vice versa. Data integrity is thereby preserved.
How is Samba for IRIX administered?
Samba for IRIX administration is simplified through the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). SWAT is a Web-based tool, which allows for easy management and administration of key configuration files for Samba server set up. Since SWAT is Web-based, administration of Samba servers can be accomplished using standard Web browser software from any computer on the network.
For example, some of the configuration parameters that can be managed using SWAT include:
• start/stop of the Samba application
• create/delete shares
• set user/guest access to shares
• manage connections to Samba server
• create/delete printers
• set workgroup and netBIOS naming
• set up security modes, manage logging options
• set tuning parameters
• specify print commands
• set up WINS server and browsing options
• view current Samba configuration.
The main samba configuration file is a text file so it could easily be modified using your favorite editor. There are also command line tools to ease remote administration over slow network connections.
What version of IRIX is required for Samba for IRIX?
IRIX 6.5.22 and above.
What is Open Source?
The basic idea behind Open Source is very simple. When programmers on the Internet can read, redistribute, and modify the source for a piece of software, it evolves. People improve it, adapt it, and fix bugs. And this can happen at a speed that, if one is used to the slow pace of conventional software development, seems astonishing. For more information please visit www.opensource.org
What is SMB?
SMB (Server Message Block) is a client server, request-response protocol for sharing files, printers, serial ports, and communications abstractions such as named pipes and mail slots between computers. All Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95/98 and Windows NT systems are (or are capable of) running SMB as a client, a server, or both.
What is CIFS?
CIFS, or the Common Internet File System, is a specification for a file access protocol designed for the Internet. CIFS is based on the existing SMB (Server Message Block) protocol that Microsoft® Windows operating systems use for file and printer access.

BeOS
BeOS was originally developed by the company Be with the former Apple coworker Jean-Louis Gasseè for its own type of computer, the BeBox. It contains 2 power PC CPUs and was equipped with maximally with 256 Mbyte of RAM. BeOS is written from sratch and does not contain obsolete operating system design concepts. Designed as a single user operating system BeOS unfolds his optimal efficiency on multi-processor systems with several parallel running programs through it modern multi-thread based structure. BeOS basically does not run other applications that are not developed for this operating system. This operating system is only available in English, French and Japanese languages.
With the new version 5.0 BeOS is at the first time free of charge for private use and was named "Personal Edition". This version can be used exactly the same as the "Pro Edition" as single OS or started from any Windows partition. However the free variant is limited to a 512 MByte virtual partition in one image file for the operating system installation and further files. For network employment are a large amount of applications available.
Update: August 2001: By the assumption of Palm Inc. for 11 million dollar BeOS is not any longer commercially developed. The BeOS Community and some BeOS developers keeps the support for the future.
Update: March 2002: The BeOS Online website is a good start to download BeOS software or the BeOS 5.0 private edition which was downloaded world-wide by several sources about 1 million time. Based on the approved source code of the BeOS Personal Edition 5 the BeOS Developer edition 1.0 was developed, which contains current drivers and is further maintained by the BeOS Online team. In December 2002 the BeOS Developer Edition 1.1 was published.
OpenBeOS (OBOS) has been founded in 2001 as the official successor of BeOS as open source project. Since 2004, the operating system is continued under the name Haiku.
Another project is the commercial Zeta distribution from the company yellowTAB, later magnussoft. It is an evolved version of BeOS PE with source code from the OpenBeOS project. This operating system has not been continued since April 2007.
BlueEyedOS copies the features and the user interface from open source software. BeOS APIs were written again, so the BeOS programs remains to be executable. This operating system is based on the Linux Kernel and the XFree86 server for graphic functions. You can download on www.blueeyedos.com the demo version as an ISO image.
The Beos derivative eB-OS (Extender Beos Operating System) is based on the latest BeOS Personal Edition 5.0.3, current Haiku code, parts of BeOSMax 3.1, BeOS Developer edition 2.1 as well as drivers and applications from www.bebits.com. The last version is eB-OS 1.1 beta on bootable CD-ROM.
Field of Application
BeOS is designed for handling large amounts of data. Therefore it is suitable outstanding for Multimedia applications such as video and audio processing as well as Raytracing. By its structural short response time of 250 microseconds between individual Threads it is particularly suitable for time-critical tasks like the recording of videos in real time. The access to files takes under 10 milliseconds, depending on the used hardware. BeOS is capably to use Plug&Play devices, after the installation of new hardware the appropriate driver must be copied only in "/boot/home/config/" and the device is now useable. The object-oriented Design allows it to activate new drivers without complete restart. During the loading only the depending media modul is restarted in few seconds.

5 Most Popular Linux Distributions
Main reason of increasing popularity of Linux is because there are many Linux distributions available to choose from. Every Linux distribution has its own strength which attracts user to adopt that Linux distribution.
As an open sourceoperating system Linux is always free to use. There are many Linux distributions are available and every distribution is trying to make Linux more easy to use and more powerful than any other OS.
5 Best Linux Distributions
Ubuntu is most popular Linux Distribution in market. With its easy installation and user friendly interface makes it more popular to new Linux switchers. It comes with many free bundle software which fulfills almost all requirements of users. Ubuntu is a community developed operating system that is perfect for laptops, desktops and servers. Whether you use it at home, at school or at work Ubuntu contains all the applications you’ll ever need, from word processing and email applications, to web server software and programming tools.
to web server software and programming tools.
Fedora
Fedora was introduced after Red Hat discontinued its Free Red Had distribution. Fedora is sponsored by Red Hat. By name Fedora can be the most popular Linux distributions as many knows it as Red Hat product. Fedora is easy to install and comes with lot of free applications. Linus Torvalds, the creator and primary maintainer of Linux use Fedora which inspire many to use Fedora.
Debian
Ubuntu Linux is based on Debian which tells Debian’s popularity. Debian GNU/Linux provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 25113 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine.
openSUSE
openSUSE is quite user friendly Linux, with great user interface and Vista like start menu. openSUSE includes YaST (Yet another Setup Tool) to make installing applications very easy. It is not easy to install for new users. openSUSE project is sponsored by Novell. openSUSE focus on easy to use and improve hardware support.
Arch Linux
Arch Linux, a lightweight and flexible Linux distribution that tries to Keep It Simple. Arch Linux is for expert Linux user as it installs with bash commands no GUI desktop. You can install basic KDE desktop on Arch Linux. It is mostly used on web hosting servers for fast performance.
