Laptop Renovation Part II â The Community Feeds Back
,----[ Quote ]
| The first distro I took a serious look at was Debian
| (Lenny). It seemed like the âsafestâ route, which should
| theoretically allow me to build what I need from the
| ground up. I didnât bother with a Live CD, I just pulled
| down an installer .iso and went from there.
|
| [...]
|
| As things stand right now, Iâm still not sold on any one
| distro/desktop combination. Damn Small Linux (with JWM)
| is the runaway performance winner, but the lack of
| support for my wireless card makes it problematic. Debian
| looks like it will be a fair amount of headache for a
| small gain: there are other thin distros out there that
| offer what Debian does, including APT, so my incentive to
| go that route is greatly diminished.
|
| I love Mintâs management tools. In many ways, I consider
| it an improved Ubuntu. But I also really like what wattOS
| is doing. Theyâre clearly not there yet, but theyâve shown
| me enough that I definitely want to spend more time with
| it, seeing if I can turn the beta version into what I
| need. For the time being, Iâm going to experiment with
| some of the less-common environments on wattOS and see how
| well that works.

Karmic Koala: The best Ubuntu Linux ever?
,----[ Quote ]
| Another real nice addition to this
| distribution for new users is the Ubuntu
| Software Center. This take on an apps store,
| makes it mindlessly easy for people to find
| and install software. Experienced Linux users
| won't need this. For them, the Synaptic
| package manager and all the other usual
| package installation programs are there, and
| that's great. But, if you have a friend who's
| just getting their feet wet in Linux, this
| feature is great.

Why Matt Zimmerman must not quit Ubuntu.
,----[ Quote ]
| Canonical, and for that matter Ubuntu, pride
| themselves on certain philosophies that I
| believe must be upheld at all times, the theme
| of this philosophy being tolerance and
| humanity towards each other. How then can such
| a company throw out or pressure someone to
| resign because he had disagreed with his boss
| albeit publicly?
