Back in December of 2008 I offered myself up as a stand-in for Robert Clipsham (the original author and creator of Command & Conquer), and produced my first article that appeared back in issue FCM#21. As you may have guessed, this became a permanent column for me. This month, I’d like to take a look back at what’s changed for Linux and for C&C in particular, over the last 79 months (about 6 and a half years!). But first, a bit of backstory!** | Back in December of 2008 I offered myself up as a stand-in for Robert Clipsham (the original author and creator of Command & Conquer), and produced my first article that appeared back in issue FCM#21.

**I was first introduced to Linux in the form of Ubuntu Warty Warthog (4.10) in 2004 by a tech-savvy friend of mine, who was running it on his laptop. After my interest in it, he set me up with an account, and from then on I was constantly borrowing his laptop… From there I moved on to live CDs on my own PC at home. It took me until 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) to finally take the plunge, as the PC at home was running a wireless card that was unsupported until then. What followed was a fairly frustrating experience of semi-working wireless. I went distro hunting for the first time, and tried everything from Enlightenment to Fedora to Debian. Eventually, I looped around to Ubuntu again. By now, it was 2006 or 2007, and I started being active on the Ubuntu Forums, using what I had learned to help out. Based on my account’s profile, I had posted 1500+ times between 2007 and 2012. Since then, I’ve switched to Arch Linux, and was active in that forum for a time. For the last two or so years, I’ve focused mainly on C&C, though that may change in the near future. Between issues 0 and 21, I was an avid reader of FCM, and learned quite a few things there too. So when I was given the chance to help out in 2008, I accepted.** | **I was first introduced to Linux in the form of Ubuntu Warty Warthog (4.10) in 2004 by a tech-savvy friend of mine, who was running it on his laptop.

During my time with Linux, I’ve seen many things about the kernel and software improve, and hardware support improve in leaps and bounds. I recently installed Ubuntu 15.04 on an old HP dv6000 laptop with a Broadcom wireless chip that never seemed to work properly with Ubuntu pre 12.04. Between 12.04 and 14.04, there were some conflicts between wl and b43 drivers. This time around though, all I needed was an ethernet connection for about 15 minutes. After that, everything was working fine. This was a massive improvement over 4.10, where my old USB wireless dongle wasn’t even recognized. Not to mention the existence of Ubuntu Touch, new Ubuntu phones, and Android. If this is how much Linux can change and improve over the course of roughly 10 years through our community, then I’m excited to see what the next 10 bring!** | During my time with Linux, I’ve seen many things about the kernel and software improve, and hardware support improve in leaps and bounds.
