Re: RD for Power V8 on Ubuntu - issues

Bryce:

All true, although I tend to use the server version as workstation because most of the stuff for the workstation is there anyway and then I have the other services if I decide I need them. I do think IBM is rather tilted towards SLES though if you talk to the insiders. It might have a bit to do with the money tossed at Suse by IBM back in early years to keep them from going bankrupt.

But CentOS is more of a server distro, not a desktop distro. Ubuntu is
geared toward being an easy to use Linux desktop. There are separate
versions for server. IBM has some love with RedHat as its "enterpricy"
(and enterprice companies like enterprice software, open source or not).
Ubuntu support will come because most users want it, but they had to start
somewhere, and they started with their bottom line.
