linux fun


I think it would be nice to have a linux fun forum, instead of throwing it all to general.
Newbies might think this is a bad site for linux fora .

I tend to find all aspects of Linux fun.

wait..wait..wait ! You _can't_ have fun with linux:
- no HOWTO at ldp
- no sourceforge project
- absolutely NOTHING found at freshmeat when searching for fun (whole word)
- no articles at linux today blasting the broken (evil, in fact) MS approach to fun
- the only distro mentioning fun is SuSE, and it's broken
This obviously needs to be part of the 2.7 kernel.

ok, you guys don't see the point.

MS linux => this is a real distro...
some sort of funny tests and stuff related to linux does not needs to be put in general IMHO.

Geert.

Or we could just redo the description of the General forum (which is misleading anyways as non-technical stuff about Linux belong there) so we don't have two General forums, one mainly for Linux and the other for non-Linux, etc...

Yep..... the wording is misleading - maybe something like

This forum is for general discussion of both Linux and non/Linux issues... have fun

(not very good but you get the drift)
