anyone use RedFlag linux
I dont know whether you have heard of the redflag linux. But I am using it. And I am a linux newbie, I have a lot ot question about it.
Anyone can help me with it?
i recently replied to 00Scott who was looking for a distro for chinese and i said i thought there was one called red dragon or red something,but, of course,as you say, it is red flag linux. i read about it a while ago and i think it was similar to redhat, but i could be wrong. my interest was in seeing linux take hold in china, a nation of intelligent and hardworking people. do a search on this site for chinese support and you will probably find several threads involving members who are knowledgeable in this area-if red flag and redhat are similar, there are a bunch of members who can help you. they like specific questions, the heart of which you indicate in your subect line. good luck and welcome. see if this works. http://slashdot.org/features/99/11/14/0053242.shtml

Thank you for your help.
I dont think the redlag linux is similar to redhat, especially the latest version 4.0. Now in china most people still use MS windows instead of linux. and in china, website about linux is few. So i searched linux in google and come here.
I want to ask many queston on linux, but I dont know how to express myself in English. It is really a big problem.
I have been to www.redflag-linux.com, you can get free tech support (I think) if you register.
Otherwise, why not post your specific questions here? Linux problems are very similar from distro to distro so we should be able to give assistance whatever you are using.
You could set your distribution to "Red Flag" in your member profile. That way your distribution would appear under your name and you would not have to explain what you are using in every post.

THanks for 2damncommon. Things you post are very useful.
To Chinaman:
Nice to meet you here. I am also a student.
You can give my email address to your friend. That's ok. I like to communicate with you all.
Your pronunciation in Chinese is not bad. I can easily catch you.
Waiting for your email. Or you can also contact with me on MSN.

The English version of 6.0sp2 installed without requiring any registration. I am testing it as we speak. I'm trying to get a torrent out there to circumvent the slowness of the mirrors.
