| | Ubuntu Linux: Power for the People |
 | | Ubuntu is a Linux distribution aimed at real human beings, and as such it's appropriate for just about any computer user. |  | | The Zulu word ubuntu roughly translates to "community" or "humanity to others," but a more accurate meaning is, "I am because we are; we are because I am." Not coincidentally, the Linux distribution Ubuntu seeks to bring this philosophy of selflessness to software development. |  | | Ubuntu's software repositories give you access to a HUGE library of programs (about 10,000 or so, I think) to solve almost any sort of task, so you should be able to find what you need without ever using another system (though you can). |

| | Ahoyhoy.org » Ubuntu Linux |
 | | “Linux for human Beings” is the motto of Ubuntu Linux, a distribution based on Debian. |  | | But many are drawn to Debian because of it’s package management utility Apt (Advanced Package Tool), which makes installing and managing application packages on a Linux system much more barable. |  | | I would even consider installing Ubuntu on my mom’s computer. |

 | | For example, a distribution that comes with a strong philosophy which is generalised beyond software is Ubuntu. |  | | Linux distributions may also be referred to as GNU/Linux distributions, though the latter may more often refer to the Debian system. |  | | Before the first Linux distributions, a would-be Linux user was required to be something of a Unix expert, not only knowing what libraries and executables were needed to successfully get the system to boot and run, but also important details concerning configuration and placement of files in the system. |
