Ubuntu 6.06 Released

06:12:36 :: [Linux] :: 104 words

Ubuntu is the new, up-and-coming Linux distribution based on the rock-solid foundation of Debian/GNU Linux. See screenshots here.

You can order CDs of it for free, or download the ISOs via BitTorrent—legally, thankyouverymuch— and create your own discs (CDs or DVDs).

I’m looking toward Gentoo personally, but if you’re unfamiliar with Linux, this is reputed to be the best option, and easier to install than even Windows XP!

Happy installs!

    heyas all.
    my 40 gig drive is going to good use now. I have installed UBUNTU and have ordered KUBUNTU.
    I dont know how to install the driver for my ati radeon 9600xt.
    Actually i dont know if i am meant to be downloading and installing XFREE86 or the XORG version of the driver. I am downloading them both but i dont know how to do anything in Linux really.
    I dont know where I am meant to set up my modem or set up a net account. (no INETWIZ.EXE)
    So yeah, can someone help me out with getting my ATI driver installed?
    and does anyone know of a good long PDF file i can read and wrap my brain around.
    I’m still a Windows user, but I want to use Linux as much as possible.
    Thanks. :)
