PureBasic Forums - English

what are you trying to proof? That Debian is exactly as easy to use as Ubuntu.

which is a widely known fact. As ubuntu states clearly on their homepage themself: The Server Edition - built on the solid foundation of Debian which is known for its robust server installations
If Debian would also ...

As if asian people wouldn't be enough nerdy and dedicated that they need to use PureBasic. Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese, even Koreans are f**king smart and they can do relatively everything if they want using standard programming languages like C++.

i'm european, i code in c/c++, i code in ...

Well, ok.. my friend said it was very easy to use.. next morning I uninstalled Ubuntu and installed Debian Lenny with debian-multimedia.org repositories and the Ubuntu "Human" theme. I asked my friend to try out "Ubuntu" again. He said he liked it very much just like last time. Then I told my ...

If you already know html, then what's the point of even using vim? just use whatever local text editor that comes with the OS you're using.

yeah, like notepad or what?

the point of using vim is, that it is a mighty html editor, with syntax hilighting, auto identing, folding, autocompletion ...

well, didn't vote for any, as i do only know phpbb, and that is insecure as hell, would not really recommend it.

has the kernel joliet support compiled in? or maybe should try it on ubuntu

you seem to have forgotten, that you had to learn a lot to find your way through windows... i still don't get the point, why i have to klick on start, to stop my windows pc :roll:

i tried several ways now to time the program exact on windows and linux. the only one working so far is the following:

do NOT use SetFrameRate(), it messes all up


delayValue=1000/25 ; 25 fps
repeat ; game main loop
startTime=ElapsedMilliseconds()
; do drawing stuff
FlipBuffers(0)
; do logic ...

i also tried several over the years, including nvu, dreamweaver, golive, frontpage but ended up with this little fella:

just learn html, it's not so hard, you'll save yourself some money and nerves and the world some ugly autogenerated bad html code

I mean, how many mums and dads and kids and small businesses are going to be happy with stuff like this:

yum install gcc gtk+-devel gtk2-devel glib2-devel SDL-devel libstdc++ libstdc++-devel compat-libstdc++-296 compat-libstdc++-33

That's what I said... Except that on Windows you just run the installer.

as already told (but obviously ignored), you do that too on linux, if a installer is provided. it's not a question of ubuntu, or redhat, or younameit, its a matter of the 3rd party developer. if it's a opensource project ...

Ubuntu does NOT make it easy to install 3rd party software. Which he asked for.

sorry, but i am not getting the point here... what exactly makes a linux distribution - which is nothing else than the same linux as on every distribution, with some predefined configs to a certain preference of that ...

Soon enough I will stop this Ubuntu religion. PB, be prepared to use Gentoo :twisted:

he asked for a linux, easy to use (for the windows user)... you have noticed that? ;)

but just in case you want a flame war:

if i would like to use a linux where i had to wait hours for a simple firefox update ...
