Computer users in Indonesia currently mostly using artificial operating system from Microsoft, the Microsoft Windows. it naturally occurs, because the first windows operating system is present in Indonesia instead of the linux operating system. maybe all of you who already know about computers, already understand that the windows operating system is not freely distributed software, you must issue a license fee to be able to legally install on your computer, but if you did not issue a license fee, meaning it can be said that you use windows is pirated.
the article is about the understanding linux. understanding linux is a free open source operating system which is free to be distributed under the GNU license. so you are allowed to install on your computer or to copy and redistribute it without paying. Linux is a derivative of unix and can work on a variety of hardware ranging from inter computer x86 to RISC. With the GNU (Gnu Not Unix) You can obtain a program, complete with source code (source code). Not only that, you are given the right to copy as much as you want, or even change the code.and was all legal under the license. Although free, GNU license allows a party seeking to charge a fee for copying and delivery of the program.
The most important freedom of Linux, especially for programmers and network administrators, is the freedom to obtain the source code (source code) and the freedom to change it. This implies a few important things. Safety first, the second dynamics.
If commercial software does not allow you to know sumbenya code then you will never know whether the program that you buy from them it is safe or not (often called security by obscurity). Your life in the hands of the vendor. And if there are notices about the software bug from the commercial, often too late. With Linux, you can examine the source code directly, along with other Linux users. The development of Linux users as a community that is open, make bug will quickly known, and as soon as it did the programmers will fix the program. You yourself also determines the appropriate code in accordance with the hardware or software other basic needs to be implemented. Like a car, you can modify at will, even though the engine, to obtain the desired shape.
Disclosure of the source code also allows the operating system is growing rapidly. If a program with a closed system and is only developed by a particular vendor, at most about one thousand to five thousand people. As for Linux, with the openness of its source code, developed by volunteers around the world. Faster bug is known and penambalnya program (patch) more quickly available. Approach to the development of this operating system called Bazaar. Conversely Chatedraal system is closed and only focus on one or two developers only.

Linux today has evolved into many distros (Linux distributions), for example, is a distro Redhat, Debian, Suse. currently a very popular linux distro in use in Indonesia is the distro that Ubuntu is a derivative of Debian.
