RadioTux is a podcast project founded in 2001 with a thematic focus on Linux , open source and network culture . It produces various formats at regular intervals and has developed into a sought-after media partner for open source events.

Formats

Current broadcasts

Magazine broadcast

A RadioTux magazine program appears monthly. This either deals with a specific topic or offers a variety of different contributions that are separated by music. So far, there have been special programs from the Zarafa Summer Camp 2010, among others .

Former broadcasts

Due to a lack of staff and resources, many formats were discontinued at the end of 2011 or outsourced to independent projects in order to concentrate more on the monthly magazine broadcast.

RadioTux Talk

This weekly talk show from the HoRadS studio , which was also broadcast live, dealt with news about Linux, open source and network culture. Free music served as a separator between the various thematic blocks.

So far, guests have included the Vice President of KDE e. V. Frank Karlitschek or Dirk Deimeke , chairman of ubuntu Germany e. V.

The format was discontinued at RadioTux, but will be continued under the name binary storm .

Live streams from trade fairs and conferences

RadioTux was represented at almost all major trade fairs and conferences in Germany. For example, the CEBIT , the Chemnitzer Linux-Tage or the LinuxTag in Berlin were firmly established in the broadcast calendar. In addition to those responsible for KDE and Gnome and a number of Linux distributions, the project also welcomed the stars of the Linux scene such as Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth as interview partners.

Weekly News

RadioTux served as the platform for the weekly news broadcasts from the Ubuntu , Fedora and openSUSE communities .

Techview Podcast

The Techview Podcast deals with various technology topics related to GNU / Linux , new hardware and software, network policy topics and BeOS or Haiku (operating system) . Leszek Leszner has also continued this format independently since 2012.

P3Cast

The P3Cast, formerly Playing Penguin Podcast, deals with topics from the Linux game scene. No distinction is made between free and commercial games. This format has also been continued independently since 2012.

Podcasts

All articles are published as podcasts on various platforms such as iTunes or via web feed . Different variants of the contributions are available. Programs are offered in MP3 format as well as in the free Ogg / Vorbis format. Furthermore, listeners can choose between versions with or without (free) music.

Hundreds of podcasts are now available in the archive.
