Why is the English forum so dead :slight_smile:

English speaking people are shy :slight_smile:

We are not that shy. I for one have only just installed the version from Linux Magazine dvd.
A really great distribution. Many thanks to all the team.

We made a few steps to create the English-speaking community. I hope the situation will change.

The first forum is working on LinuxQuestions http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/calculate-89/

I think Alexander has a great distro here. I wish this forum was more active. :slight_smile:

I started running the LiveCD from LinuxPro Magazine…Calculate 10.4 and it is sweet. It seemed a bit cumbersome to install it without an install GUI…a bit ironic when Calculate is steered toward a business distro. I didn’t expect it to be technical. It is no problem for me, but I thought it kind of an oxymoron to not make it business people friendly. However, I downloaded 10.9 and see many pleasant changes, including the Install GUI.

And with this distribution based on the highly-successful Gentoo Linux, I feel for my business laptop, I can’t go wrong. As it is the company laptop, it needs to keep a Windoze partition for certain business applications. If I can successfully install this on the hard drive and co-exist for now with Windoze, I will be happy.

Thanks to the whole Calculate Linux Team! You have made good things even better.

Minimally sufficient only one partition for the system. Not bad to have a swap. In the file /boot/grub/grub.conf, you can activate support for booting Windows. The best solution would be to work with Windows via VirtualBox :wink:
