***17, [AS](http://mkaysi.github.com/Asperger.html), Linux user since 2008, currently using [Fedora], interested in computers and some kind of Finnish translator.*** About me ======== My name is Mika Suomalainen. I am probably more known with my nickname *Mkaysi*. I am seventeen years old, even though people often think that I am older which can probably be explained with my [Asperger's syndrome](http://mkaysi.github.com/Asperger.html). I started using Linux in 2008 and the distribution was [Ubuntu] 8.04 Hardy Heron. I am currently using [Fedora]. I am interested in computers. I am also some kind of Finnish translator. [Fedora]:https://fedoraproject.org/ [Ubuntu]:http://www.ubuntu.com/ Asperger's Syndrome (AS) ------------------------ Asperger's Syndrome causes me different kinds of problems, but has also positive things. For example, I can easily remember things which are related to computers, like how I usually set up some operating system. More about it [here](http://mkaysi.github.com/Asperger.html). Linux ----- As I said, I started using Linux in 2008 and the distribution was [Ubuntu]. But [Ubuntu] wasn't the first distribution, that I used, it was the first distribution which I installed. [Ubuntu]:http://www.ubuntu.com/ ### Damn Small Linux I started testing Linux using [Damn Small Linux] on USB stick. I didn't do very much with it and I don't think that you can do very much with it when compared to some other distribution. [Damn Small Linux]:http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/ ### Ubuntu [Ubuntu] was the first distribution that I installed. The release was 8.04 Hardy Heron. I stayed fully in Ubuntu some years before I got involved with Limnoria and that was when I started trying other distributions. [Ubuntu]:http://www.ubuntu.com/ ### Debian People in [Limnoria] got me to try [Debian] Sid (unstable) and I liked it, because it usually had newer packages than [Ubuntu] and I used it a long time. I did ever manage to crash it if we don't count installing closed [nVidia] display driver and using [Debian] [Experimental] with higher priority than is sane. [Limnoria]:http://supybot.fr.cr/ [Debian]:http://www.debian.org/ [Ubuntu]:http://www.ubuntu.com/ [nVidia]:http://www.nvidia.com/page/home.html [Experimental]:http://wiki.debian.org/DebianExperimental ### Arch Linux I also tried [Arch Linux] and [ArchBang], but I didn't get positive experience with them. My experiences were just "install, upgrade, crash" multiple times. [Arch Linux]:https://www.archlinux.org/ [ArchBang]:http://archbang.org/ ### Linux Mint Debian Edition I used [LMDE] with netbook for some time, but I wasn't able to get [systemd] into it when I upgraded it to [Debian] Sid. [LMDE]:http://www.linuxmint.com/download_lmde.php [systemd]:http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd [Debian]:http://www.debian.org/ ## Fedora I once tried to install [Fedora] to one computer which had problem with current Linux kernel in [Ubuntu] (>10.04, I don't remember which), but as [Fedora] had the same kernel, it didn't succeed. This issue was solved by installing [Ubuntu] (>10.04, I still don't remember which) Alpha release. I didn't have any interest towards [Fedora] until recently when teacher at my current school started recommending it and we had to install it. At the end my interest towards [Fedora] awake when I noticed features which weren't taught, delta packages and fastest-mirror. Delta packages allow downloading only changes in packages instead of whole packages and fastest-mirror's name says what it does. Of course delta packages exist with [Debian] and [Ubuntu] too, but they aren't used by default and they are harder to use, aren't officially supported, have only one mirror. In [Fedora] just install updates and they are used automatically. The fastest-mirror is also with [Ubuntu] and [Debian], but not enabled by default and it's server side. With [Ubuntu] there is [one dynamic file] on mirrors.ubuntu.com that contains the list of near mirrors and with [Debian] there is [Debian] [HTTP redirector] which is server side too. If either of these goes down, you can't upgrade. [Fedora] also has promise to try to keep the latest upstream versions, so I got the new [Enigmail] faster than I would got with [Debian] and [Ubuntu].
