Utter disaster.
One of the writers of the magazine is a Turkish developer I keep in contact with, I'm sending him an email asking him to offer an English version of the magazine.

Sorry no ones welcomed you, but, better late than ever. Welcome to Pardus! If you have any question please don't hesitate to ask, Pardus-Wiki (http://en.pardus-wiki.org/Main_Page) is a great resource for beginners.

Not much point to mention now, but:
http://en.pardus-wiki.org/Pardus:Download
There is always support for you on PardusWiki as well if you want to check something up quickly, but it won't be as indepth and comprehensive as this forum.
When downloading Pardus, md5sum and sha1sum are checksums used to check that the software you've downloaded isn't corrupted. During installation you can check the CD for errors, the binary of the CD is taking through an algorithm which determines a certain code (like a barcode which identifies a product), if the codes match, then the software is valid.

I'd reccomend torrent downloading, you won't be able to tell the difference in terms of download speeds, plus it continuously uploads (I seed current Pardus torrents 24/7), and plus, you'll be able to contribute by seeding the torrent and contributing to others in the Pardus community.

I like the current theme, its tasteful

I think Firefox can be very stable and I like its open community (add ons etc), but its logo etc are proprietary, its not fully open source, however, I can see no suitable alternative thus far.

I think Google Chrome should, once its ported to Linux, (then to Pardus through .pisi), be the default browser (if its faster than Firefox.

Excellent idea.
I tried to translate the webpage online, this... unfortunately failed miserably. I'm currently downloading Windows-platform software which I'm going to run under Wine to translate the web page. The finished copy will be made available here, PardusWiki, and ThePirateBay (thepiratebay.org/user/Mhmrcs).

I'll keep posting messages on this topic updating the current situation.

(Babylon does not work)

*** Please note that the finished copy (if indeed there will be one) will be in broken English (or any other language its translated into).

The default appearance of Google Gadgets is a grey, opaque bar to the right of your Pardus desktop, I think it should be configured to be transparent by default.

>Excellent Site<

OpenSuse is also sponsored by Microsoft... I think thats discouraging enough to the average Linux user to put it on your site lol.

Mihai, also Romanian , welcome to Pardus > Romania is now a supported language under International Users of the Pardus Worldforum:
http://worldforum.pardus-linux.nl/index.php?board=31.0

Ceau, <welcome to Pardus>, acum exista un forum international pentru Romani

http://worldforum.pardus-linux.nl/index.php?board=31.0

I'm not British per se (citizenship, Romanian origin), but I am a Pardus developer living In the UK (^Scotland^ lol).
Welcome to Pardus

Heyyy, I discovered Pardus roughly a week ago, and I'm in awe of its stability, the Force Quit options is far more powerful, PiSi feels far smoother and more administrative than my former Ubuntu Synaptic (also, PiSi is read the same way in Romanian i.e. meaning kitten), KDE is more stable (whenever I would play a 3-D game in Ubuntu eventually the game would stop and exit to my Desktop which would crash), I like how Pardus isn't an extremist Linux distro where people don't want >anything< to do with Windows like its a Nazi regime (YALI is similar to Windows installing sequence i.e. slideshow, Kaptan is like Vista's "Welcome", new drives plugged in make a window appear asking what you would like to open it with) on top of which, firmware is preinstalled > my trackpad can do horizontal scrolling! Which its only ever been able to do in Vista & OpenSolaris (not even XP), I also like the felines themes like those of the Mac operating system, Pardus releases new editions a lot faster than Ubuntu's 6 months waiting period.

What I love most about Pardus, is that its still in a raw form. There is so much value you can bring to this project, I'm currently working on translating all the .pot files to make Romanian a supported language in Pardus 2008.2, I'm contributing to Pardus-Wiki (english version) [http://en.pardus-wiki.org/Main_Page] and seeding Pardus torrents [thepiratebay.org/user/Mhmrcs], I'd like to raise awareness to these forms of contribution and encourage anyone to help, what Pardus may lack in funding, it will make up with a zealous communtiy.
People reading this message have obviously also discovered Pardus, congratulations.

Mai intai, bine ati venit la Pardus Worldforum, eu cred ca Pardus este cel mai efficient si stabil sistem de operare care exista, sper ca credeti la fel , daca aveti vro intrebare nu hesita sa imi trimiteti email.

Pardus 2008.1 nu are suport pentru Romana, dar versionea 2008.2 va avea, (sper...). Cand am timp, traduc fisiere .pot de Pardus din Engleza in Romana folosind kBabel, cine poate citeste si intelege treadul acesta poate face la fel . Daca va intereseaza, trimitemi email.

I had the exact same problem when web browsing. In my case, it was caused by the add-ons I had installed (which were several security related add-ons such as Cookie-Master etc), JavaScript and Flash, mostly the former, can really take down any Linux distro, in my case, I had to wait around 2 to 3 minutes until Firefox loaded my homepage, in the meantime if I clicked on anything, it froze. I used Ubuntu for the past year before switching to Pardus, Meebo almost always crashed the second the page loaded, this is a common problem, Sun Microsystems and Adobe specialize in providing for the Windows platform.

I reccomend installed "NoScript!" (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722) and more importantly:
Click on the Pardus Icon >
Tasma >
Peripherals >
Keyboard Shortcuts >
Under Global Shortcuts Scroll Down To "Miscellaneous" >
Create a Shortcut >
Apply.
^ Pressing the shortcut now a black skull with two cross bones will appear, clicking on the malfunctioning application with end it in a instant (its like Task Manager in Vista but far more powerful), this will prevent your entire system from crushing.
