BRING ITMy face REALLY HURTS On Friday 09 December 2005 06:28, Bobbie stood up and spoke the following words to the mbuttes incomp.os.linux.advocacy...: You may have missed the post to which this nymshifting troll... George Ellison I'm sure...but, and again, I'm totally new to Ubuntu, my experience suggests that yes, in a general environment, Ubuntu may install, but that any variation may give it problems. That could be Debian's fault, as you suggest. I don't like LiveCD's at all -- but I'm basically committed to using Suse, which is installed on my hard disk along with XP and I'm not really "distro shopping" -- I just wanted to diagnose a very specific application problem. Well, if I knew that I wouldn't have suggested as much. But I understand now, and yes, I apologize! I should extend you the same courtesy, and I will complete a bugzilla report for my experience with the Live CD! I just have seen far to much promotion of it without any real justification. Also it's origins ( a rich guy who adopts an African name and incorporates in the Isle of Man ) just raised a lot of red flags for me. Ubuntu means "joke" in Swahili 6816 In comp.os.linux.advocacy, John Bailo wrote on Thu, 08 Dec 2005 07:30:09 -0800 Erm, you sure you're not confusing UBuntu... I'm really suspicious, because, to be honest with you -- I think the days of the 1001 Distroes are nearly over. The fight, right now, comes down to the powerhouses battling it out: Novell vs. Microsoft, Linux vs. XP.
