I want to know about unix

Unix is a multi user multi tasking operating system. Mainly using for scientific process and database storage with well security. You can install ubuntu 12.04 LTS to learn Unix in GUI environment.

Windows and unix are 2 separate and distinct operating systems.
If you are running XP, you are not running UNIX.
The Beginner Guide to Operating Systems

The solution depends very much on the cause of the problem. I note that you can print from Windows, this indicates the intrface you are using is functioning correctly and it should therefor be possible to print from Unix to the same interface if it is connected to the Unix system. If the printer is connected via a network interface, check the IP address on the printer to ensure it matches the IP address set up for the Unix print queue. Try pinging the printer from Unix. Ensure the EMULATION setting on the printer matches the Device Type selected on Unix. You may need to identify if any data is being sent for Unix perhaps try sending a test text file to the printer. A common cause for printers not printing from Unix is no Carriage Returns or Line Feed commands in the data. Try setting Auto CR to ON in the printer, of this does not work try setting Auto LF to on. If there is still a problem please post the connection method and also any errors or symptoms seen when printing from Unix

start the computer with the Unix disk in the drive.
Choose the option to run unix without installing to the pc.....(this runs without a HDD>Itll take some time but let it install all the way, and as system is fully running..Choose "install unix " from the drop down menu.
After installation, eject the cd and set up to boot from the HDD.

I would like to humbly state, if you are completely new to Unix it may be in your advantage to start with a flavor of Linux.

Poseidon Linux is specifically geared towards the scientific community, and contains many applications and tools centered around those needs.

Here's a download link for Poseidon in English:

Scientific Linux, which is geared towards your ambitions is based of the Red Hat Distribution, which allows for easy installation via "Red Hat Package Management" or RPM.

Here's a link to Scientific Linux:

Should you feel that a true Unix experience is required, the choice of Unix would be up to you. The reason why you would have to choose a Distribution on your own is because mostly all Flavors of Unix do not come with mission-specific applications installed.

You can get Unix in both Open (Free) or Licensed.

Hope this information has been helpful.

Hi,

Hmmm... This is a BIG question, and it has a HUGE answer.
Have you ever seen Unix and Vista? I think you would immediately see the difference between the two.
1. Vista has a Graphic User interface, Unix is a command line interface.
2. Totally different systems (Filesystem, application, Kernel... whatever)
3. Age - Unix is ooold, and Vista is new (Unix dates back from the 1980's)

Well i can go on like this for days ...Google it more.

You will be familier with linux once you understand the files system...

UNIX is a operating system which has only command user interface, and if the unix is installed in the system you cant install any other operating system after that ... one separate system must be allocated for the unix ...

LINUX is the graphical user interface and it supports multiple operating system ..

UNIX and LINUX are almost same, almost all commands which supports in UNIX supports in LINUX too .. with some extended features just like GUI(GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE),SECURITY,MULTI USER,MULTI TASKING,etc

COMMAND USER INTERFACE - the input is made to the computer by using commands and the output is obtained by command or by printer ...

GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE- the input is provided to the computer through the other input devices like mouse,joystick etc
the input is provided either by command or by the just clicking the mouse on the particular icon ...

example for graphical user interface is windows,Macintosh etc ...


thank you

Dear Sagarshinde111,

Thank you for your excellent question on how to run all DOS and UNIX commands on a Frigidaire GLTF1670A Front Load Washer using the C programming language. I do not know specifically about washing machines, but there is a version of UNIX which has been ported to toasters that would be a good starting point. NetBSD is a full UNIX operating system written in C, and all the source code is freely available to use and change under the Berkeley License (which basically says, do what ever you like, but don't claim you wrote it). You can download it from netbsd.org. You will also find in NetBSD's excellent package source repositories (pkgsrc) the C source code for both DOS and Linux kernel emulation.

I am sorry that we were not able to help you in time for your class assignment (due the next day!), but perhaps this will help the next student who is given this rather challenging homework.

Do you want unix or Linux? Since you said linux, you need to know which flavor you want. SCO, and others, look on google for the different flavors.

I have ubuntu linux and I am writing you from it now. I love it, it's very nice working with Windows.

See this link for all the downloads.
See this link for using windows.

When you download and burn the Linux ubuntu, just run the disk in your windos and it will start to setup the dual boot and other things. Mine was EEEEASY!
