Well, I played with Ubuntu for a while, but then when I decided to test 5.10 for AMD64 I realized that a lot of sofware is not available in 64bit flavour (starting with OpenOffice).<BR/><BR/>So... when I attempted to install 5.10 in 32-bit version Ubuntu refused to load after reboot, with GRUB displaying a message like "can´t find /dev/hdc !!" and hanging.<BR/><BR/>I got really annoyed and kissed Ubuntu goodbye. <BR/><BR/>A really nice, even better distro than Ubuntu, if you ask me, is BLAG. It´s made in the UK, it´s very similar to Ubuntu (also based on Gnome) but with Red Hat Fedora Core 3 (FC3) as its foundation instead of Debian.<BR/><BR/>I really like it.<BR/><BR/>Check it out when you have the time http://www.blagblagblag.org<BR/><BR/>More importantly, the users forum at the Blag site are really great and I always received answers to my questions in a matter of hours, not days.Nerd Progrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16328258490086439970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12266914.post-1141262806774261992006-03-01T17:26:00.000-08:002006-03-01T17:26:00.000-08:00A slightly surreal post - I like it!

Please check out my blog on free software too:<BR/><BR/>http://decodingliberation.blogspot.com<BR/><BR/>You'll find a link a couple of posts down the page to a video conference on open source that we had last month. Would love to hear what you think. <BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>SamirSamir Choprahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16145425333818168212noreply@blogger.com
