3. What is

5. “Linux ” currently more and more heard by Information
Technology amorist and Communication (TIK) worldwide
included at Indonesia. Now, Linux have become one of
operating system which there are many is utilized at circle sort,
as circle of business, education, and governance. It because of
Linux what does get openended and independent character.
Whoever can develop it wields wholly independently.
Linux constitutes kernel or basic of operating system that first
time wrote by a Finlandia's college student bernama Linus
Benedict Torvalds on year 1991. Its opus result dilisensikan
wholly independently and open end( Free is Software ) so who
just may develop it.

6. Richard Stallman , a founder software activist Free Sofware Foundation (FSF)
intend to merge Linux into operating system project that named GNU( GNU is
Not Unix ). Since at that moment, GNU'S project absolutely unfinished
implemented operating system kernel. Finally, with start Linux's kernel, happen
marriage among instrumental (tools) one that made by GNU'S project with
Linux's kernel that made by Linus Torvalds, so results new operating system
named GNU / Linux, one operating system which alike with UNIX. To all
component of GNU / Linux Dilisensikan's operating system bases license that
call GNU General Public License (GPL) one that is written own by Richard
Stallman. This license enables one any one for wholly independently develops
even sell Linux by condition of all development has already is done has also be
publicized to generically. On succeeding developing, Linux also packeting with
other software for stationary given as server, desktop, about office, Internet,
multimedia, etc. so makes it what the so called with Linux's distribution or
frequent one to be known by distro Linux's terminology. Since exposed Linux
character, whoever that packet Linux can with its option software by packeting
each to make Linux's distribution.

7. Linux's extra
As an operating system, Linux in common has various excess and lack for than another
operating system. Following is excess from Linux:
Linux can be gotten wholly independently without needs to pay license. You that
download and also Linux's source code if want to see it without available limitation
whatever.
Linux has alone software collection that really fledged for desktop need, laptop and
server. If available software feels insufficiently, You can add it squashy through
repository that available.
Linux really stable because scarcely over crash and also hang. You also not necessarily
even never do to restart if do system configuration.
More Linux safe to virus, since besides virus amount at Linux by one whit. Linux also so
tights in term security management.
Fixed up lice (bug) or blemish that exists at Linux very fast, since Linux was developed
by ala community and each community can give entries and fixed up for lice or at a
fault that

8. Bad from Linux:
Linux insufficiently have support of hardware
producer in term available controller software
(driver). Nearly all current controller software at Linux
constitutes community effort result, and plays
favorites support purification little of hardware
producer.
Linux stills less supported by many game makers.
Mostly permbuat game is still utilize Windows
Microsoft operating system as platform them.

18. Some view of

19. PLUS OF BLANKON
-Demulcent
distro Linux that developed by YPLI (Linux's Actuating foundation Indonesian) this really
demulcent. Indeed we can carry on Blankon 8 Rote on computer with specification under that,
provided that minimal hard disk room 6 GB.
-Freely
Are not as operating system of Windows that gets to pay, Blankon 8 Rote this 99% free! is
shuttlecock only 99%? yes we still to make a abode have to issue cost for electric, while internet
connection is downloads, and maybe cost burning CD. Suppose just peripheral governance at our
Republic loving it utilizes Blankon 8 Rote, therefore that slimming can budget at IT's area billions
even triliunan rupiahs.
-Fledged goodly application
Blankon 8 Rote meet the need basic as turn around music and video file, document typing,
internet connection, until graphic design requirement (manipulate photograph and 3D). Every
thing just in one installation without needs install another affix application (unless really needful).

20. PLUS OF BLANKON
- Severally application which is attached, for example:
Multimedia: Audacious (like Winamp), Brasero Disc Burner (Nero's substitution
Burning ROM), Movie Player (Windows Media Player substitution)
Document:LibreOffice Writer (like Ms Word), LibreOfficeCalc (like Ms Excel), LibreOffice Impress
(PowerPoint's substitution), LibreOffice Base (like Ms Access)
Graphics:Inkscape (like CorelDRAW), GIMP (Photoshop's Adobe substitution), Blender (3Ds's
substitution Max), Viewer's image
Internet: Chromium is browser's web, Pidgin is Messenger's Internet (Messenger's Yahoo
alternative)
- Backing up Javanese letter of the alphabet writing, Bali, Sunda, Bugis, Rob, and Doily
Now we no longer difficult write our region letter of the alphabet each since Blankon 8 Rote
provide that facility through SCIM'S application (Preferences> SCIM is Method's Input).
To activate, Ctrl's press + Space and see at bottom right corner display.
Writing archipelago letter of the alphabet at Blankon 8 Rote
- In store tutorial for beginner Linux
Click “ Starts Menu ” than choose Accessories>BlankOn Tutorial. There is 136 guidance page
utilizes BlankOn 8 Rote to initiates at Linux's area, beginning from installation, the line basic
instruction, word processing, etc.

21. BAD OF BLANKON
– Linux stills less support to some game or gamete maker
– Absolutely everything software already there is constitute community effort
result, but plays favorites little to constitute support from his hardware.
