    Debian is better than Fedora.

    @tux for sure, even though my last name is Fedora hahah

    Screw Debian. it can never find the packages I'm trying to install without having to go find public downloads and install it manually.

  • zachfedorazachfedora

    @Cirium Debian/Ubuntu have the best repos..

    nano /etc/apt/sources.list

Add "contrib non-free" to the end of your deb repo

apt-get update

    Nop baby, fedora + rpm fusion is better than old packages in debian <3

    I've got a ping tester setup to monitor my BudgetVM VPS, and the emails go into a "monitor" folder. That folder is constantly full of notification emails, that the VPS is going up & down, up & down. Useless.

    My 3 VPSes with them in LA were working as a shit.

    guys the secret is
    it isnt about YUM or CentOS issue.
    if anybody has ever used host1free - free vps, will agree, they also experience the same problem!!!
    its all about low bandwidth, lesser cache, lesser swap, and excessive overselling.

    Yeah, LA quite slow. But Chicago so far so good. I have 3 Chicago and 1 LA. At least considering their price. Its "Budget".

    Hey dedicados how did the retest of Amsterdam location go? How's the network uptime been for you? I was considering picking up one there when they become available. My main concern is there's a lot of negative feedback and fewer neutral or positive reviews so it's left me undecided.

  • daviddavid Member

    After about a week of working through a support ticket, the network quality improved (Los Angeles). I hope it lasts this time.

    I can only say that chicago works within the expected parameters for the price. I have a 1 GB one with 3 IPs.

  • dedicadosdedicados Member

    @Xei i dont have any downtimes anymore, looks great.
