Darwin is not Linux. It's a FreeBSD variant that also happens to be the Unix core to Mac OS X. Unlike Linux, Darwin is Open-Group certified, so it is a true bona-fide Unix. So many of the things I can help with without actually having Linux installed on a local machine. But, because Linux isn't Unix, there are points where the two diverge and can be quite different. (Their handling of virtual memory, for instance, is radically different). It isn't any kind of battle. They're simply two different OSs, which happen to be quite similar in many ways. -- Registered Linux Addict #431495 For Faith and Family! | John 3:16! http://www.fsdev.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
