A Linux Day of Gratitude

| There are a couple of ways to get Audacity 1.3.4. I could grab the source 
| tarball and build from sources. I could look for a backport. I could install 
| a different Linux version that has it. I opted for installing a new Linux 
| because it also gives me the opportunity to check out a different distro. OK 
| so the one I chose isn't so very different-- Ubuntu 9.04 with KDE4, Gnome, 
| XFCE, and a couple of other desktop environments. I have two hard drives with 
| something like a gazillionbytes of storage, so I used GParted to create a 
| 60-gigabyte partition for the new installation.

The Many Flavors of Linux

| Even the smallest amount if research into Linux will have illustrated the
| sheer range of distributions out there. They are all based on the original
| Linux kernel built by Linus Torvalds (the father of modern Linux) and can all
| inter-operate to varying degrees.
