Running Linux Now

[baron_army]

Greetings from the new Chinthulu (my laptop). I recently dumped all my windows crap and installed Xunbuntu. So far, I'm pretty damn happy with it. If anyone is tired of Winblows and they want to get into an almost-equally useable OS, I recommend Ubuntu (Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu):

www.ubuntu.org

Oh yeah, everything is FREE and OPEN

Welcome (back) to the world of Linux. I put ubuntu on my work computer, and I'm the only person who doesn't have any software problems. :)

I'm running Ubuntu (Gnome) in a VM on my work computer. I haven't really started using it yet (mainly for some crystal lattice imaging software -- gcrystal, etc.).

I thought about doing an image on my spare tower to get the hang of it. It has a good GUI on it. Just learning some basic root commands will help too.
