23.04.2009Shift Linux: A New Direction
Since its incarnation in 2006, Shift Linux has had an ambitious team behind it. We have always strived to be "more than just another linux
distribution", a goal which has never been more important than it is now. Over the next little while, Shift will be reborn and redefined, moving
farther away from traditional Linux roots, and into something newer. Linux will always be our core, but on top of that, we need to use new
technologies, both those that exist and those which we can only imagine, to build something fresh. Today, Shift Linux will move forward. We have
several new goals that are being set. First of all, Shift needs to be streamlined.

05.10.2006Neowin Shift Linux 0.5 Final Released
Shift Linux is a Linux project that was created by the
Neowin community. Based
on Morphix Linux, Shift is Debian based live CD; therefore it has access to all of the software and applications as other Debian distributions.
Several versions of Shift Linux have been developed to produce for computers with lighter or more robust hardware configurations. We have produced
Shift with Fluxbox as the predominant desktop manager for lower resource computers, and Shift with Gnome and KDE desktop managers, for heartier
machines.
The Shift Linux live CD and the links to the
Neowin
technical website are designed to give the user an experience of being part of the
Neowin community as well as having a simple, easy-to-use Live CD that can be installed to your hard drive, if you enjoy
the way our distribution works. Shift is a free, GPL-based Linux distribution that can be freely distributed or modified.
Shift Linux 0.5
has all of the most commonly used packages that are available and is designed to be extremely fast as a live CD. Our newly designed website is full of
information about Shift: FAQs, wallpapers and theme designs, updates, contests. Please feel free to browse and comment on our content.
The
project team consists of members with a wide variety of experiences and talents. Each has contributed in his / her own way. Whether team members have
worked on the distribution itself, or the
Shift website, their efforts
have been dedicated to creating this quality product.
Comments on how we can improve this distribution, and bug reports can be posted on
our forum (
at Neowin).

14.11.2006Shift Linux to become based on Arch Linux
As part of our new direction, I am proud to announce that Shift Linux will be moving away from Ubuntu, and instead switching over to Arch Linux. There
are many reasons for this, including a more customizable distribution for us as developers to work with, and a faster and more streamlined start
point. In my letter to the community about our new direction, I said that Ubuntu would suit our needs fine, and when the time felt right, we would
consider a move. Since then, the outpouring of support from the Neowin community has been unbelievable, and so we decided to take advantage of the
moment.

28.11.2008Review: Shift Linux 0.5 (RC2) - Neowin's Linux
Our Neowin Shift Linux Developer and moderator Barney, pointed me to a review by
Sunny Talks Tech blogger Saptarshi Purkayastha on the latest release of Shift Linux 0.5 RC2. It's a great read for anyone who
hasn't tried the Live CD yet and in my opinion quite a flattering review coming from an established Linux user.
Snip from the review:
"I've been a Linux user for 10+ years and have contributed a lot of code and bug reports to different distros (distributions) over time. Just
lately, I heard about a new distro over at Neowin.net called ShiftLinux. It is a community effort from Neowin users to create a Linux distribution...
And as soon as I heard, I wondered why another distribution? But soon realized, more people coming to the Linux world, would mean a better future for
Linux.
Based on Morphix Linux, Shift is Debian based and I decided to try the latest ShiftLinux 0.5 RC2. Most stuff are going to be the
same between this one and 0.5 Final to b released on 10th Nov,2007. I prefer to use KDE, and hence got the KDE version. The distro can be downloaded
from Neowin's server or via Bittorrent. I used Bittorrent to download but to my disappointment, found only 2 seeds. I was expecting a few more seeds
(it's a yr old, so may be the initial excitement is over). But the download was pretty fast."
He also mentions the
widely misconceived myth that we are not just a Windows site , we have since
the beginning always supported and enjoyed both Linux and Apple members on the forums, we publish news on the two subjects and of course welcome and
support the Neowin Shift Linux project.

29.09.2007Neowin Six Years Old Today
Hi all, Just wanted to make
time to let everyone know that
Neowin has just entered its
7th year online.
As
many will know we spent the
better part of the last two
days offline while our coder
guys ran maintenance on our
servers. The changes have been
significant, the site is
responding a lot quicker and
work is still being carried
out in the background so that
we can iron out the bugs of
the new config to ensure
better service in our 7th
year.
The
changes are as
follows:
- Re-enabled
2 Apache servers for load
balancing. Neowin can be
accessed through 2 web
servers
- Instead of
using Network file share (NFS)
we now use rsync to sync those
2 web servers
- Our
primary database is now innodb
and the slave db (for
searches) is Myisam with
realtime sync between those 2
servers.
So basically
what this all means is, we
have 2 servers doing our SQL
database and 2 servers doing
the web access. A lot better
than 1 for web and 1 for the
SQL eh? The technical side of
the above changes can be
answered by our coder guys
should you have any questions.
I also took the opportunity to
make a few changes to the
boards, adding a link to Back
Page News from the news link,
added a RSS feed for that
forum, tidied up the top row
of buttons, added a 'Go to
the top of the page' link
under the skin selector and
enabled the forum index link
on the blog breadcrumb bar.
Guests can now view images
emoticons and avatars on our
boards, it was previously
disabled.
Full
list of changes here.
Design Update:
Shift
This past
year also saw the launch of
Shift (or version 4.0), we
have been working hard to make
it fully standards compliant

14.09.2009First look: The HTC Shift
This has to be UMPC scoop of
the year. Hugo got hold of the
HTC
Shift for a few days and
had the chance to test it out
and make a video. At last we
have some REAL info on the
device:
I had The HTC Shift for
a little over 60 hours and was
able to play with many of its
great features, which include
Pocket PC, HSDPA, Vista
Business, Tilt Touchscreen,
QWERTY keyboard and more. It
is an incredible device with
many possibilities, this video
will hopefully showcase some
of that. I managed to
literally squeeze it into a
very tight schedule I am
running at present and did
what I could to cover off some
of the burning questions folks
might have.
Machine specs (as
tested):
- Windows Vista
Business (3 hrs battery)
- Intel Santa Rosa A110
Processor
- 1GB
DDR2 RAM
- 40GB HDD
- HSDPA (Data only)
ready
- Web Cam
- Biometrics
- Windows Pocket PC (over

exclusively)

12.08.2007Political Shift in Congress May Mean Delays in FCC Issues
With Tuesday's elections
giving the U.S. Congress a
Democratic bent from its
previous slant to the
Republican side, that means
the shift will probably end
the prospects for passage of a
telecom reform bill.
The bill would give broader
wireless federal pre-emption
and would shift more
regulative issues to the FCC
and states. With the AT&T and
Bellsouth merger approval
being deadlocked in a 2-2 vote
at this time, I'm not sure
how the recent election
results will affect the vote
in the FCC if at all, but
we'll all see soon.
