Which is better for use Theano on Linux or Windows? I want to try some deep learning methods by Theano.
It works fine on both, but I find better support for CUDA and much it is easier to install the scientific Python stack on Linux (usually Ubuntu).
I use Theano on windows and once you use a package like enthought canopy or anaconda I find it easy to install and use. Although like a lot of this stuff on windows it is probably easier on Linux! :)

Can a python 3 script be compiled in a linux environment in such a way as it can be run under Windows?
If so what compile tool? ie. py2exe or pyinstaller ect.
You're looking for cross-compilation, and the answer is no.
Can I package Windows binaries while running under Linux?
No, this is not supported. Please use Wine for this, PyInstaller runs fine in Wine. You may also want to have a look at this thread in the mailinglist. In version 1.4 we had build in some support for this, but it showed to work only half. It would require some Windows system on another partition and would only work for pure Python programs. As soon as you want a decent GUI (gtk, qt, wx), you would need to install Windows libraries anyhow. So it's much easier to just use Wine.
Can I package Windows binaries while running under OS X?
No, this is not supported. Please try Wine for this.
Can I package OS X binaries while running under Linux?
This is currently not possible at all. Sorry! If you want to help out, you are very welcome.
You may use Wine or the Windows Subsystem for Linux to attempt using PyInstaller to build stand-alone binaries for different operating systems, however, neither PyInstaller, nor Py2Exe, nor cx_freeze, nor any tool to my knowledge does this.
Effectively, in-order to do something like this, you would need a cross-compiler such as MinGW or VC++ for Linux, and integrate it into PyInstaller, which is very far outside of the scope of the project. It is much easier to use WINE or having a dual-boot system or multiple development computers.
i'm learning linux kunnel programming. however, i faced problem that gcc version is too high to execute 2.4kunnel "make" command(make bzImage), I try to find solution. but in debian case solution does not exist, just for ubuntu, centOs ect... please help me Or, link that about my problem.
P.S ) What i want version of gcc is 3.3 version, it doesn't work use command apt-get install gcc-3.3
Why would you learn based on 2.4?
Your question is wrong anyway. You will likely need other old tools. The way to go is to download an entire debian system and chroot inside. This can be achieved with debootstrap.
However, as noted earlier, you should not stick to 2.4 in the first place.
I need to run a program which use VTK5 on my Archlinux PC, but I found it really hard to install VTK5, there is only VTK6(not compatible with VTK5) in official repo, and when I try to install it from AUR, it returns "Makepg was unable to build vtk5", then I try to install through source code, the result is that I was unable to install the VTK Python module...
Is there anybody who has any experience or idea about it?
I have not installed on Archlinux specifically, but on different linux machines. If you compile from source and are interested in python, remember to select the option python wrapping when running cmake. Btw, once built, you will have to update both the pythonpath and the ldlibrarypath.
You can also have a try at enthought canopy, which distributes a complete installation with numpy, scipy, vtk http://docs.enthought.com/canopy/quick-start/install_linux.html
I should install vim into Minix. But I couldnt find any useful information on the net. I've just installed Minix on VirtualBox. So I am a beginner on Minix.
Do you have an idea how to install it?
Look at this site, then navigate to your version and architecture:
ftp://ftp.minix3.org/pub/minix/packages/
For example, minix 3.3.0 on i386:
ftp://ftp.minix3.org/pub/minix/packages/3.3.0/i386/editors/vim-7.3.762.tgz
Is it not possible to compile from source? With a half-decent machine, compiling Vim doesn't take very long.
Though this tutorial on how to compile Vim is geared towards Ubuntu, it's not to hard to adopt to other *nix systems.
Does anybody know how to build Octave for x64 Windows? The 2GB data limitation for x32 is too limiting for many problems that require analysis on large data sets.
http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Microsoft_Windows has information on installing Octave on Windows and links to building it from source using different methods.
GNU Octave is primarily developed on GNU/Linux and other POSIX conformal systems. The ports of GNU Octave to Windows use different approaches to get most of the original Octave and adapt it to Microsoft Windows idiosyncrasies...
Windows support is experimental.
According to http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Compiling-Octave-with-64_002dbit-Indexing.html
To use arrays larger than 2 GB, Octave has to be configured with the option --enable-64. This option is experimental...
Compiling Octave for 64 bit is experimental on Linux. It might cause a lot of headache to try an experimental feature in a port of the software. It would be better to use a true Linux installation for now. If you feel adventurous, try compiling it in http://www.cygwin.com/
I have installed Octave-4.0.0 into windows 7,8 and 10 in x64 platforms. All works perfectly well.
Just follow these steps
Download Octave-4.0.0_0-installer.exe from https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave/windows/
Install the same - just follow the steps in the installer.
Find the build_packages.m file in C:\Octave\Octave 4.0.0\src
Open it in Octave and find
try install general-1.3.4.tar.gz, and try install signal-1.3.1.tar.gz, the versions are wrong.
Replace with 2.0.0 and 1.3.2 respectively.
In the build_packages.m file find
pkg ('install', pkgname, '-noauto').
Change it to
pkg ('install', pkgname).
Skip this and you will have to load the packages you require every time you use Octave. Lesser load for octave though. Sometimes it may take a while for the packages to get installed, kindly wait.
Run build_packages.m
load the packages
e.g. to load the general package - pkg load general
Note that the signal package is dependent on the control package.
I found that the plot function got octave stuck. The answer for the same is to type in at the command window
pkg rebuild -noauto oct2mat
Found this solution in Plot window not responding
Hope this works for u too. :)
I found Sreepad's ans is CORRECT. I use octave on win 10 64-bit OS.
octave 4.0.0 is ok as Sreepad said, But Octave 4.2.1 is not OK on Win 10 64-bit OS.
