Things we've learned in Open Source
In the open source subjects we have learned so much about Open Source. Among the things we've learned is that the purpose of Open Source itself, the advantages of Open Source, feature-envy and a host of other Open Source.
In addition, we can use some command for use in Open Source. Even the Open Source subjects also provided a variety of knowledge on matters related to information technology itself. In addition we get to know about the computer network such as network command model for them is "ifconfig" "dhclient" and the ping is often used in computer networks.
In fact, we learn about Troubleshooting Methonologi, Troubleshhoting Producers and troubleshoot Hard Disk Failure in open source. Moreover we have to learn how to how to install a new hard disk . to strengthen knowledge, we have made a study of Open Source in more detail.

The most interesting topic in open source
Open Soure this chapter we have studied the various chapters, but we are more interested in the chapter on troubleshooting Linux systems because of this chapter more interesting and more understanding. besides that, the chapter has various problems in computer knowledge.
In addition in this chapter we will learn about troubleshooting methodology, producers and troubleshoot troubleshooting hard disk failure.

History of open source
- The concept of open source and the free sharing of technological information existed long before computers. For example, cooking recipes have been shared since the beginning of human culture. Open source can pertain to businesses and to computers, software and technology.
- Early instances of open source and free software include IBM's source releases of its operating systems and other programs in the 1950s and 1960s, and the SHARE user group that formed to facilitate the exchange of software.Open source on the Internet began when the Internet was just a message board, and progressed to more advanced presentation and sharing forms like a Web site.
- There are now many Web sites, organizations and businesses that promote the open-source sharing of everything from computer code to mechanics of improving a product, technique, or medical advancement.
- The label “open source” was adopted by some people in the free software movement at a strategy sessionheld at Palo Alto, California, in reaction to Netscape's January 1998 announcement of a source code release for Navigator. The group of individuals at the session included Christine Peterson who suggested “open source”, Todd Anderson, Larry Augustin, Jon Hall, Sam Ockman, Michael Tiemann and Eric S. Raymond.

Advantages of the Open Source Software
Financial savings :
In the majority of cases of Open Source software, the software will be available for free. In other words, the acquisition costs are considerably lower than those of the traditional, proprietary software that may be purchased.
In many cases people also want the services connected with the software acquisition that will cost; installation, operation, training support, however compared with proprietary software the same case often applies here.
Software code that sustains a critical eye! :
The people who originally write the software always know that anyone can see in full detail how it works or what solutions have been chosen. They will therefore naturally do as good a job as possible in order that they can be as proud as possible of the product and avoid criticism as much as possible.
It is perhaps simplest to conceal the source code and thereby obtain a little more freedom as long as the end product is ok. However by producing in accordance with the ”Open Source code” concept, one makes a clear statement that ”my method withstands the light of day and a critical eye!.
Easy integration and interaction :
Open Source code means that it is relatively simple to adapt programs so that they can work with each other because you can see from the source codes how a program ”thinks” and how you should approach it to share or exchange data.
Rapid debugging, rapid further development :
Because the source code is open, the developer/producer does not just receive feedback on any errors or problems, or proposals for new functions, but feedback reports that can specify down to the code level what should be done – it is therefore far simpler for the producer to implement changes on the basis of feedback reports since these often say precisely what program changes must be made and also any errors in the original source code may be corrected by the person who detects the error without having to wait for the original programmer.
Avoiding lock-in to one supplier :
It is obviously great to have one software supplier to turn to – perhaps to provide services connected with the software, such as installation assistance, courses, operation, support and more, and you have someone to ring if you need help or information concerning the software.
But you decide to whom you turn! Don’t end up in the situation where by acquiring a product from a supplier, you have simultaneously locked yourself into only being able to obtain related assistance from the same supplier. For example, if you have other software must interact with the initial software, you are forced to be grateful for what this single supplier has to offer and if the supplier goes bankrupt or your collaboration ends in another way, you are left high and dry when it comes to future debugging or new versions.
The very basis of Open Source software is an openness that ensures interaction between products and makes it impossible for one player to lock customers to their products by concealing the source code.
The Term Of Free in Open Source Software
Free software, software libre or libre software is software that can be used, died, and modified without restriction, and which can be copied and redistributed in modified or unmodified form either without restriction, or with minimal restrictions only to ensure that further recipients can also do these things and that manufacturers of consumer-facing hardware allow user modifications to their hardware. Free software is generally available without charge, but can have a fee, such as in the form of charging for CDs or other distribution medium among other ways.
In practice, for software to be distributed as free software, the human-readable form of the program (the source c must be made available to the recipient along with a notice granting the above permissions. Such a notice either is a free software licenses, or a notice that the source code is released into the public domain .
The free software mavement was conceived in 1983 by Richard Stallman to satisfy the need for and to give the benefit of software freedom to computer users.Stallman founded theFree Software Foundation in 1985 to provide the organizational structure to advance his Free Software ideas.
From 1998 onward, alternative term for free software came into use. The most common are software libre,free and open source softwarre (FOSS) and free, libre and open source software (FLOSS). The Software Freedom Law Center was founded in 2005 to protect and advance FLOSS.Commercial software may sometimes offer some freedoms which are typical of open source software. Contrary to a popular misconception that software is either free or proprietary there are differing degrees of freedom. One example of free commercial software is GNAT.
Free software, which may or may not be distributed free of charge, is distinct from freeware which, by definition does not require payment for use. The authors or copyright holders of freeware may retain all rights to the software; it is not necessarily permissible to reverse engeneer , modify, or redistribute freeware.
Since free software may be freely redistributed it is generally available at little or no cost. Free software business models are usually based on adding value such as applications, support, training, customization, integration, or certification. At the same time, some business models which work with proprietary are not compatible with free software, such as those that depend on the user to pay for a license in order to lawfully use the software product.
History Open Source
The free software movement was launched in 1983. In 1998, a group of individuals advocated that the term free software should be replaced by open source software (OSS) as an expression which is less ambiguous and more comfortable for the corporate world.Software developers may want to publish their software with an open source license , so that anybody may also develop the same software or understand its internal functioning. Open source software generally allows anyone to create modifications of the software, port it to new operating systems and processor architectures, share it with others or, in some cases, market it. Scholars Casson and Ryan have pointed out several policy-based reasons for adoption of open source, in particular, the heightened value proposition from open source (when compared to most proprietary formats) in the following categories:
Particularly in the context of local governments (who make software decisions), Casson and Ryan argue that "governments have an inherent responsibility and fiduciary duty to taxpayers" which includes the careful analysis of these factors when deciding to purchase proprietary software or implement an open-source option.
The Open Source Definition , notably, presents an open source philosophy, and further defines the terms of usage, modification and redistribution of open source software. Software licenses grant rights to users which would otherwise be reserved by copyright law to the copyright holder. Several open source software licenses have qualified within the boundaries of the Open Source Definition. The most prominent and popular example is the GNU General Public Licenses (GPL), which “allows free distribution under the condition that further developments and applications are put under the same licence” – thus also free. While open source distribution presents a way to make the source code of a product publicly accessible, the open source licenses allow the authors to fine tune such access.
The open source label came out of a strategy session held on April 7, 1998 in Palo Alto in reaction to Netscape's January 1998 announcement of a source code release for Navigator (as Mozilla). A group of individuals at the session included Tim O'Reilly, Linus Torvas, Tom Paquin, Jamie Zawinski,Larry Wall, Brian Behlendorf, Sameer Parekh,Eric Alman, Greg Olson, Paul Vixie and John Oustershout. They used the opportunity before the release of Navigator's source code to clarify a potential confusion caused by the ambiguity of the word "free" in English.
Many people claimed that the birth of the Internet , since 1969, started the open source movement, while others do not distinguish between open source and free software movements.
The Free Software Foundation (FSF), started in 1985, intended the word "free" to mean freedom to distribute (or "free as in free speech") and not freedom from cost (or "free as in free beer"). Since a great deal of free software already was (and still is) free of charge, such free software became associated with zero cost, which seemed anti-commercial.
The Open Source Initiative (OSI) was formed in February 1998 by Eric S. Raymond and Bruce Perens. With at least 20 years of evidence from case histories of closed software development versus open development already provided by the Internet developer community, the OSI presented the 'open source' case to commercial businesses, like Netscape. The OSI hoped that the usage of the label "open source," a term suggested by Peterson of the Foresight Institute at the strategy session, would eliminate ambiguity, particularly for individuals who perceive "free software" as anti-commercial. They sought to bring a higher profile to the practical benefits of freely available source code, and they wanted to bring major software businesses and other high-tech industries into open source. Perens attempted to register "open source" as a service mark esentation of Raymond's paper to the upper management at Netscape—Raymond only discovered when he read the Press Release , and was called by Netscape CEO Jim Barksdale's PA later in the day—Netscape released its Navigator source code as open source, with favorable results.

All About Open Source Software
Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form: the source code and certain other rights normally reserved for copyright holders are provided under a software licence that permits users to study, change, improve and at times also to distribute the software.
Some open source licenses meet the requirements of the Open Source Definition . Some open source software is available within the public domain .
Open source software is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open-source software is the most prominent example of open source development and often compared to (technically defined) user generated content or (legally defined) open content movements
A report by Standish Group states that adoption of open-source software models has resulted in savings of about $60 billion per year to consumers.
