LINUX SUPERSTAR

I Want To Be A Linux Superstar

One day out of the goodness of your heart you decide to upload a Linux "how to video" and the next thing you know you have a quarter of a million views. Whether you intended it or not, you are now a Linux Superstar.

You're a Superstar!!!

For this post, I wanted to create a quick sample of what was out there on the internets as far as "Linux Superstars" go. So I hopped onto YouTube and after a few minutes of browsing. This is what I found. Without further ado, here are your stars.

(If you don't see your favorite Linux Star below, please let me know who they are and I will consider adding them to my list.)

WHY THE PENGUIN?

The concept of the Linux mascot being a penguin came from Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux. Tux was created by Larry Ewing in 1996 after an initial suggestion made by Alan Cox and further refined by Linus Torvalds on the Linux kernel mailing list. Torvalds took his inspiration from an image he found on an FTP site, showing a penguin figurine looking strangely like the Creature Comforts characters made by Nick Park. The first person to call the penguin "Tux" was James Hughes, who said that it stood for "(T)orvalds (U)ni(X)". However, tux is also an abbreviation of tuxedo, the outfit which springs to mind when one sees a penguin.

WHAT IS OPENGL?

OpenGL (Open Graphics Library) is a cross-language, multi-platform application programming interface (API) for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. The API is typically used to interact with a graphics processing unit (GPU), to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering.

OpenGL was developed by Silicon Graphics Inc. (SGI) from 1991 and released in January 1992 and is widely used in CAD, virtual reality, scientific visualization, information visualization, flight simulation, and video games. OpenGL is managed by the non-profit technology consortium Khronos Group.
