[03:49] <ShawnR> anyone here messed around with cinelerra video editor? i'm having export issues :(
[22:39] <ShawnR> anyone know how much diff working in solaris is vs linux?
[22:49] <rmcbride> Mainly different in the way shell works, and the complete lack of availability of most FOSS tools
[22:49] <rmcbride> it's been about 4 years since I've done any Solaris.
[22:51] <rmcbride> Years ago, I would have used it at home in some capacity because occasionally work would get rid of perfectly servicable hardware. These days I wouldn't do anything with Solaris unless work requirements called for it
[22:51] <rmcbride> Network interface names are somewhat different by default
[22:51] <ShawnR> well, i'm trying to find a job and was wondering how much i'd need to learn to go from linux to solaris
[22:52] <rmcbride> You could pick the differences up pretty quickly I think
[22:52] <rmcbride> most of the real differences are command line switches and some of the init and networking. It's like learning a new dialect really
[22:53] <rmcbride> Now that Oracle owns Sun, FOSS support is even less than it used to be, but that's probably not a concern if it's for work
[23:08] <ShawnR> thanks for the info, i know i don't have to really shy away from solaris jobs
[23:12] <rmcbride> You're quite welcome. Good luck!
[23:13] <ShawnR> thanks.  you don't know of any sites that are good at providing good jobs dealing with unix in NE FL, do ya?
[23:46] <rmcbride> Not really, no. I'm in Central FL and about to relocate to SE florida. I would say the usual, Linkedin/Dice/Monster
[23:46] <rmcbride> would give a good idea anyhow
