Guys
For a few years now I have been using Linux as my desktop mostly the Top three , Red Hat /Fedora, Mandrake and Suse I love the idea behind linux , but just as the OS is ready for the desktop I realize that there is such a lack of uniformity of software for example I want a RPM for a game I cant go and get one from Mandrake and install it on Suse [ it may work ] but it will probably need other dependancies , S o I am starting the Linux testing Center I have 3 Machines
donated by Techpro my aim is to get those interested in helping [I am not a programmer] The plan is to uniform the software applications ie Media players, Games , and other software for the home user the idea that they can download for free software that is uniform so it will work on all three [ and hopefully other distro's . If anyone wants to be involved I will be setting up a server[ again donated by techpro] There will be a website with secure login and the inside will be discussions on the hits and misses of course everything will be open source ,
I need people who can compile software , build rpm's from source , At first we will be concentrating on three main areas
1. Media player software
2. Strategy/RPG games
3 Desktop applications

Again anyone interested in helping let me know
