re[2]: [SLE] OT: Linux support by IT departments
2. There's the LSB which should sort that out. I think most distros adhere to that now. The relevant distros at least
Is Redhat? For some reason I thought they were not following the LSB. Greg Freemyer Internet Engineer Deployment and Integration Specialist Compaq ASE - Tru64 v4, v5 Compaq Master ASE - SAN Architect The Norcross Group www.NorcrossGroup.com

That's what they say. I haven't checked to make sure, but from what I read on the net it looks like they adhere to it pretty closely in 8.0

They started with some LSB support in RH 8.0 yes, but won't have it fully implemented until probably the next versions. From my experience with RH8.0 though, I wouldn't bother installing it to begin with! It is not one of their best efforts for the desktop.

I think that Distro is planning to achieve LSB by some time soon not now. On the other hand I would also say, IMPOV they have no idea of modern marketing as the competion never ever is your collegue but some else that is taking all the customers away. In an interview see how SuSE officials replt compared to Redhat official This is the beginning of the lost game :-) http://www.newsfactor.com/perl/story/20036.html ... As Dyroff told NewsFactor, "We have a market lead in Europe and huge momentum in the U.S. Our primary competition is Microsoft Windows, Sun Solaris and other commercial Unix. Our customers are either putting new workloads on Linux or changing from Solaris or Windows." Quandt agreed that SuSE poses a threat to Red Hat. "Overall, SuSE has tremendous engineering talent [and] a good partnership with SAP (NYSE: SAP) . Red Hat's biggest competitor is either SuSE or Sun." -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx
They plan on by the end of the year. http://techupdate.zdnet.com/techupdate/stories/main/0,14179,5102584,00.html On Wednesday 20 November 2002 16:46, Greg Freemyer wrote:
