Er, why? The Tech Forum doesn't get a lot of Linux traffic so it cannot justify the need for a Linux Forum.*

I have to agree with boobot here...I hardly ever read anything Linux related, and only know 3 people here who use the OS itself...

You can just search websites for such Linux problems you have. This isnt exactly a forum that is meant for that.

Voted yes. A linux section might be exactly what this forum needs to bring in the traffic.

It may bring in traffic, but its not the type of traffic I think this forum wants or was meant for.

I think it would end up crashing and burning. It's good in theory, as are all ideas for new forums, but it's hard to bring in traffic.

I run linux and I still think it's a pretty dumb idea.

I voted yes, I use CentOS and Debian on my hosting servers. I guess it would be nice chatting about miscellaneous linux-related stuff ... servers, applications, hardening, etc. Not having one isn't a big deal though, I can just run back to the asylum - lol.
