Val de Linux

Introduction

I've used several linux distributions over the years.

Currently I'm using Ubuntu Linux. It's based on Debian Linux which is another distribution I've used. The first Linux I tried were Redhat Linux, it's was version 5.1 as far as I can remember, which means it was back in the middle 1990's. Later I switched to Fedora Core, but I've also used Gentoo Linux and Arch Linux along the way.

Why Linux

I've been using Unix and Linux for about twenty years. Before that I was a happy Amiga user. I've been a big fan of Microsoft DOS/Windows, I'm much more productive on a Linux system.

About this website

I got the idead for this sites several years ago (around 2000 I think). But never really go around to implementing it. The initial concept was a virtual skiing resort, with slopes for beginners, intermediate users and experts; hence the name Val de Linux (meaning the Linux Valley in french).
