From, Justin C To, Linux community Are there any free sites online that send out distrobution cd-rs of linux without charging for them? As I use dial up, and it takes me weeks to download 1 complete cd. Im really strapped for money, and I dont live in town to acquire these files. If anyone can help me out, please email me and maybe you can send me a cdrom. Im also interested in Live boot cd-s or linux, i have Knoppix 3.4 and 3.6 and WFTL.. Im also wondering where can i find programs for SUSE linux online? I have the base packages installed but i want to add GAMES, and other applications. I have tried 2cows, and download.com but the linux editions seem to lock up in suse, i believe they are not correct versions to use. I run KDE interfaces... Again thanks for your support. With Kindest Regards, Justin C.

not free but cheap http://www.edmunds-enterprises.com/linux/ http://www.budgetlinuxcds.com/ free CD's & shipping of this new distro. Default shipping is 10 free CD's. http://www.ubuntulinux.org/

Thanks :) With Kindest Regards, Justin C.

Suse is rpm based and you can download lots from http://rpm.pbone.net and http://rpmfind.net. http://freshmeat.net and http://sourceforge.net also have lots of software and source code. When compiling stuff from source you can use checkinstall to create a packaged for your system...either an rpm, deb or tgz. If you want a distro sent to you on CD for free check out http://www.ubuntulinux.org...otherwise buy a GNU/Linux book as most come with distros on CD inside the cover. Often magazines like Linux Format include distros on their cover CD.

i got my mandrake 10.1 com version from the latest linux format. it also contains a lot of other stuff for linux.. but try to get the dvd version if there is one... yup there is and there you get the whole mandrake pakage... plus a lot more.. And jesus came into my life and i feel better. Amazing
