Anyone using it?
I downladed the DVD version, but I have run out of blanks so I cant install it.
Anyone got an opinion?

Are you talking about ubuntu, the new user friendly linux? I used the live cd once on my PC, worked great right out of the box. But its linux, so there will be teething problems.Comment

I set up a server using Ubuntu in a couple of hours. Apache, MySQL, Samba. Also set it up as a desktop.
Now my testing of PHP stuff is much easier.
It is the best distro I have seen.
I heard it is supported by some rich philanthropic guy.

Ubuntu is excellent, download the live CD and run it without having to install anything if you are new to linux.

I just set it up on one my PC's. Its Excellent!!!
Easy to install. Easy to use. Easy to update. And its free!
Use easyubuntu.com or getautomatix.com to load the extra stuff.
Linux is a different world than Windows, but its much more stable and once you get the gist of it, you really fall in love with it compared to all the Win BS we have to deal with frequently.

can you install that OS if you already have Windows XP pro installed on your hard drive or will installing this OS fuck windows xp up?ICQ: 16544251 - Skype: gator37 @ eastlink.ca - email: yngwie @ isys.caComment

Yes, but you have to partition the drive very carefully first. I you really want to dual boot, I'd rather start from scratch. First install Windows, then Linux. You will get GRUB, which will let you choose if you want to use Windows or Linux every time you boot.Comment

Ubuntu is an 'easier to use' Linux distribution based upon Debian. Unless you're a real tech head, it's just a pretty clickable Linux, that's all.
If you are a tech head, it's a nightmare, because they happily put known broken/crashy/troublesome shit (acx100) in their RELEASED stuff.Comment

Yes. It'll reduce the windows partition and make room for itself and then give you dual boot options. If you get the DVD or CD they are live boot and you can try it out first without changing your HD.Originally posted by Yngwie If you would like to develop your domains, you can lease inexpensive foreign labor

I have it on dual boot on my laptop, it's ok but I end up using windows all the time anyhow. Plus I never got wifi to work on it...Comment

The only recent version of Linix I've tried is Linspire. I used the live cd, I didn't install it. Fun to play around with, but IMO you'd better have it on a secondary computer.Comment
