Title: Anyone here use Ubuntu? Or any other Linux distro?
Post by: Eru_Roraito on January 31, 2009, 01:04:20 PM
I tried getting Fedora, but I can't because this computer is stupid. D:
I'm stuck with Ubuntu, but I like it more than Windows XP.

It's a decent OS for CASUALS

Install Gentoo.

I can't install Gentoo, Fedora, Linux Mint, or anything.
I've tried. I can only install Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, or Mythbuntu using Wubi.

When I tried other things, I always mounted the iso to a virtual hard drive. I ordered an Ubuntu and Kubuntu CD, so hopefully those will work.

I SUPPOSE I CAN ACTUALLY GET ON TOPIC HERE:

Ubuntu was the first Linux distribution I installed on my PC, quite some time ago. I used Wubi also.
gay lol
Right now I've got nothing but Windows 7 on this PC. I had been considering installing the newest version of Ubuntu, but I much prefer Sabayon Linux over Ubuntu.
Unfortunately, the Sabayon disk I have doesn't work anymore. So I need to order Sabayon 4.0.
I would download it, but I've probably got one of the shittiest internet connections here, not including Steal's dial up lol.
