How to get highly Red Hat Desktop compatible Linux now and for free
10. May 2004
Lineox, Inc. has made available a web page with instructions how to get
highly Red Hat Desktop compatible Linux now and for free. See page
http://www.lineox.com/lel3desktop.php for a full version.
Red Hat has announced a new Red Hat Linux version aimed for desktop use
and it is promised to be available in mid-May. According to the
information provided by Red Hat on pages Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Features and Benefits (http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/features/)
and Red Hat Desktop (http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/desktop/), Red
Hat Desktop is only a version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 with some
program packages removed and some added. Even if Red Hat doesn't mention
it, we are quite certain that Red Hat Desktop includes also all the
updates published for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 up to about the end
of April.
So to get highly Red Hat Desktop compatible Linux now and for free, you
should first download Lineox Enterprise Linux 3.0, register to Lineox
Enterprise Linux 3.0 update service and install all the available
updates or to save time, download the latest Always Current Lineox
Enterprise Linux (not a free download) and skip the update phase. Next
you may want to remove the program packages which are not included in
Red Hat Desktop and then download from the Internet and install the
packages that are added to Red Hat Desktop.

I represent a US-based marketing research firm. We are trying to
identify Linux applications developers to participate in a web survey
regarding Linux applications environments. It would take about 10
minutes of your time and the bulk of the survey is designing your
ideal Linux applications environment. We would offer $25 as a token of
our appreciation and all of the information gathered will be used for
research purposes only.
We only report information at an aggregate level and your answers will
not be linked to your identity in any way. We do not sell or use lists
for marketing or sales purposes. Your privacy will be insured. If you
are interested, please email me at lookingforlinux@yahoo.com. Thanks!
