用Linux的这几年... ...

使用Linux也有些年头了，虽然不是什么大侠级的人物，也算是只老鸟，总有些想法，只是不知道以什么方式说而已！

早
些时候有过要办Linux方面的网站想法，推动Linux的普及来着，可是，我向来是比较理想又很容易屈于现实的矛盾的人，面对着几乎事无可挡的D版之
势，看到RedHat的光盘亦在D
盘之列，我选择了默然，无所适从的独自享用着我的乐趣和爱好,这是自私的也是无聊的，只是我真的找不到真正的几个Linux用户，有的只是开始把玩
Linux的论坛拥护者，做的最多的是做比Linux和Windows，因为他们更多时候用的是Windows，其次就是看看哪个桌面漂亮，哪个汉化成
功，仅此而已！

而我们的Linux公司呢？如果事实是如我所见，那么从1998年Linux风起至今还犹存的国内Linux公司以不是用屈指可数来形容了吧！:-)

用Linux这几年，想的最多的是免费的午餐到底有多少？能享用多久？

伴随着Linux在服务器领域和嵌入领域的渐入佳境，发觉我自己对Linux热衷的桌面应用的热情大减，我甚至开始分不清该用什么输入法？该用何种encoding了？是Linux的桌面之路越走越迷茫还是我对Linux的认识越来越狭隘，不解中... ...

开
始整理我自己的思路和想法，重新审视事过境迁的Linux之路，汉化是到头了，输入法不外乎那么几种，何况我对于输入法的要求不高，至于
encoding，都是GBK，GB18030的祸水兴许不正确？utf-8是蛮好，可惜要从原来的GBK转过来，我原来一直用GBK好几年了，有许多文
件和事情要做了！我不知道GB18030为什么总是那么慢，消耗资源，姑且不用了！对于这些琐碎的问题不提也罢，一提恐怕就是Linuxer争议的交点
了！
用Linux作为工作和学习环境这么长时间以来我一直回避这些问题的，我都是以够用的原则到达为我所用，为我够用就行了，也懒得去理会那
么多是是非非的讨论！我的Linux系统已经几年没有大的变化了，系统升级只是纯粹的系统程序升级，而我在用的部分诸如LaTeX，VIM的配置，中文环
境配置 ...
我的中文环境说来很可笑，一直停留在三年前，RH7.3的时代，zh_CN.GBK还是我的唯一设定，奇怪的事这好像没有什么问题，直到最近我升级到
Fedora Core 2,
我发觉好多东西变了，变得我不认识了，iiimf架构，2.6的核心居然没法支持我的ThinkPad电源管理(ACPI到底比APM好在哪里？)，哦，
原来这个世界还在前进中！选择改变中 ...

Linux的桌面之路到底会怎么样，我是很难有时间去揣测的了，就先这么用着吧，总归
比那些个D版强一些的，况且我已经习惯了Linux的工作，思维方式了，LaTeX，VIM，Emacs，Mozilla，Mutt，GnuPG
... ...太多太多熟悉的东西，不想放弃了！

那Linux做Server确实很爽，没有它办不到的，只有你想不到的，从路由器直到Windows文件服务器，我还真没想过Linux不能做什么服务器，只是硬件可能会捉襟见肘罢了。

有一片几乎未曾涉足的是领地里，Linux做的也很好，那就是嵌入式！不值在这儿提了。

用Linux有一段困惑的经历，也有热情洋溢的感慨，像很多Linuxer一样这样走过来的。

What is DevOPS?

Image
What is DevOPS? As be a DevOPS engineer more than five years in the past, I was always asked what is DevOPS or what is a DevOPS role or what should a DevOPS Engineer do? Or even question like how to be a good DevOPS? What? How? should be the most two frequently questions from almost all organizations. As I am working with  Amazon Web Service  for a long time with my DevOPS career, I tried to get answers from AWS guys frist as they have a special section about AWS DevOPS, also they have AWS DevOPS certificate cources, even though I never try such cources. This is the first page said about DevOPS on AWS DevOPS to answer "What is DevOPS?", DevOps is the combination of cultural philosophies, practices, and tools that increases an organization’s ability to deliver applications and services at high velocity: evolving and improving products at a faster pace than organizations using traditional software development and infrastructure management processes. This speed enable...

RPM Build Tips!

Now, I am trying to build a Linux system based on the Fedora Core Release! Working with the RPM system in deep.The unpackaged file terminate the build process under RPM 4.x! Unpackaged files message in RPM-4.1 and following RPM version 4.1 and following demonstrate a new behaviour in the rpmbuild process. Previously, a build process might place any number of files, say in the %install stanza, when running the make install part of a Makefile , in the customary /var/tmp/%{name}-root/ BuildRoot (the RPM_BUILD_ROOT ). Once through that part of the Makefile , it can then completely ignore these files in the %files binary packaging stanza. This often happens when an upstream maintainer adds, or deletes items from new directory spurs in the make install , and the change might be missed during an unattended or automated rebuild. This option permits careful packagers to cross check the quality of their packaging. So as a cross check, /usr/lib/rpm/check-files is now enabled during ...
