My brother Megatotoro and I have this je ne sais quoi for trying out software in the most stressful situations. (Well, he wins hands down; he did it during his thesis dissertation). At the University where we work, every two years, there is the International Congress of Modern Languages, an event that provides us with the opportunity to successfully test software on Linux or risk ourselves to international ridicule if something goes wrong.
So far, Linux has not failed.
Well, exactly two weeks ago, we were in front of a crowded auditorium and very important people, including international keynote speakers, came to see our humble presentation on censorship and children's literature.
This time, we decided to use TheBrain software running on PCLinuxOS. Of course, we had never used that software on that OS, so we were a bit anxious.
Would PCLinuxOS handle the four displays (laptop screen, multimedia projector, and two HDMI TV screens) correctly? Would the experimental presentation work as expected?
Well, the answer was YES!
As a matter of fact, several people congratulated us for the quality of the presentation.
We cannot take all the credit. We were standing on the shoulders of a giant: the amazing community that makes PCLinuxOS possible.
To each one of them, thanks for your awesome work!
A blog to compile what I have learned (and what I am learning) about Mandriva (and GNU/Linux in general) since 2009, when I migrated. Current distros I'm using: OpenMandriva Lx 4.2, Mageia 7, PCLinuxOS, MX 19, and Elive 3.

It's fun to use Linux because it's fast, stable and reliable, not to mention all what one can do with it.
