Ubuntu

*

Is anyone out there who has not installed Ubuntu yet? Ok, one person less out there because I installed it on my workstation at work. :-)

Ubuntu is a Linux distribution that starts with the breadth of Debian and adds regular releases (every six months), a clear focus on the user and usability (it should “Just Work”, TM) and a commitment to security updates with 18 months of support for every release. Ubuntu ships with the latest Gnome release as well as a selection of server and desktop software that makes for a comfortable desktop experience off a single installation CD.www.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/

Now I’m running a Gnome 2.8.1 desktop and a 2.6.8.1-3-386 kernel at work. As you maybe know I’m not a real friend of the Gnome desktop, but to be able to flamdiscuss about it I have to know it better. So I’ll use Gnome in the next few days at work.
