My family's Linux story
======
Our first attempt at Linux was just an apt-get away.
![Terminal command prompt on orange background][1]
My first attempt at Linux was one of those "maybe I should give this a try" kinds of situations.
Back in the late 1990s, I found some kind of packaged Red Hat distro on quite a few floppies, bought a second hard drive for the family laptop, and set about installing it. It was an interesting experiment, but as I recall the family wasn't quite ready to share the computer to that extent. Fast forward to 2005, I finally broke down and bought a lovely Toshiba laptop that ran Window XP. At work, I had an aging Sun SPARCStation 5, and I didn't really like the direction the whole Solaris thing was going at that point (Motif-based desktop). I really wanted GIMP for some project or the other, but the convoluted journey to installing GNOME 1.x (was it 1.4? maybe) on Solaris was challenging. So, I was actually contemplating jumping ship to Windows XP. But after living with it on my home machine for a few months, I found myself liking that even less than trying to run GNOME on Solaris, so I installed Ubuntu Hoary Hedgehog 5.04 and then Breezy Badger 5.10 on my laptop. It was wonderful. That machine with its 3.2GHz Pentium, 2GB of memory, and 100GB hard drive ran rings around my SPARCStation 5.
All of a sudden, instead of fooling around with cobbled-together Solaris packages to try to get stuff running, things were just an apt-get away. The timing was good, too. My family and I lived in Grenoble, France from August 2006 to July 2007, while my wife was on sabbatical. Because of the Linux Toshiba, I was able to take my work with me. At the time I was doing a lot of GIS data processing on a couple of big projects; I found I could do the same thing in PostGIS / PostgreSQL much more rapidly than with the incredibly expensive commercial GIS software we used back home in Canada. Everyone was happy, especially me. 
The funny thing that happened along the way was that we took two other computers to France - my wife's similar Toshiba (running XP, which worked fine for her) and our kids' recently acquired new Toshiba laptop, also running XP. Just after Christmas, they had some friends over who inadvertently installed a nasty and impossible to remove virus on their computer. After several hours over a few days, one of my kids asked "Dad, can't we just install the same thing as on your computer"?  And poof, three new Linux users were created. My son, at 29 years old, is still a happy Linux user, and I'm guessing on his fourth or fifth Linux laptop, the last few all supplied by System76. One of my daughters was forced to convert to Windows when she started law school three years ago as her school had a mandatory testing framework that only would run on Windows and would allegedly detect things like VMs and whatnot (please don't get me started). And, my other daughter was seduced by a Macbook Air that her company bought for her.
Oh well, can't win them all!

我的家庭 Linux 故事
======
我们在Linux的第一次尝试只是一个简单的方法。
![在橙色背景的终端命令提示][1]
我在linux的第一次尝试是“或许我应该试一试”的这种情况。
回到1990年我在相当多的软盘上找到了一些打包的红帽发行版我为家庭笔记本买了第二个硬盘然后设置安装了它。 这是一件有趣的实验但是我记起家中并没有准备在这程度上分享电脑。快进到2005年我最终崩溃了买了一台运行windows xp的可爱的东芝笔记本电脑。在工作中我有一个老化的SUN SPARCStation 5并且我不太喜欢整个solaris的发展方向基于Motif的桌面。我真的想要用GIMP来完成一些项目或其他项目但是安装GNOME1.x的是复杂的也许它是1.4在Solaris是具有挑战性的。所以我实际上是在考虑跳槽到Windows xp。 但是在我的家用机器上用了几个月之后我发现自己喜欢它的程度甚至低于在Solaris上运行GNOME所以我安装了Ubuntu Hoary Hedgehog 5.04然后在我的笔记本电脑上安装了Breezy Badger 5.10。这太棒了。那台拥有3.2GHz奔腾处理器2GB内存和100GB的硬盘的机器在我的SPARCStation 5周围运行。
突然之间不再是用拼凑起来的Solaris安装包试图去让东西运行这些事情仅仅是一个轻松地方式。并且时机也很好。我家庭和我从2006年8月到2007年7月居住在法国格勒诺布尔而我的妻子在休假。因为有了linux东芝我才能随身带着我的工作。那个时候我在几大项目上做了大量的GIS数据处理我发现我可以在PostGIS / PostgreSQL上做同样的事情比我们在加拿大使用的昂贵得多的商业GIS软件要快得多。大家都很开心尤其是我。
一路上发生的有趣的事情是我们把另外两台电脑逮到了法国——我妻子的类似的东芝电脑运行xp对她来说很好用和我们孩子最近新买的东芝牌笔记本电脑也运行xp。仅仅就在圣诞节过后他们有一些朋友在无意中安装了一个讨厌的并且无法清除的病毒在他们的电脑上。经过几个小时甚至几天后我的一个孩子问我“爸爸我们就不能安装和你电脑上一样的东西吗”然后创建了三个新的Linux用户。我的儿子在29岁依然是一个快乐的Linux用户我猜他第四或第五台Linux笔记本电脑的系统全部由最近的系统76支持。我的一个女儿三年前开始读法学院因为他所在的学校有一个强制性的测试框架只能在Windows上运行而且据称会检测VM之类的东西请不要让我开始。而且我的另一个女儿被她的公司为她买的Macbook Air诱惑了。
哦,好吧,不能赢得他们所有!
