| | 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. |  | | 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). |  | | 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. |

| | PCWorld.com - Free Agent: Ubuntu Linux, Free and Fabulous |
 | | Linux > Free Agent: Computing With the Breezy Badger |  | | Ubuntu is based on Debian, the grandpappy of noncommercial Linuxes, and thus inherits Debian's best-of-breed package management system, Apt. |  | | But with an hour's work with Apt on an Ubuntu system, you can match Linspire's wide-ranging file type support--and you won't be stuck on a costly upgrade treadmill, either. |

| | Ubuntu Linux draws a crowd |
 | | Ubuntu is well known for being the 'noob' linux. |  | | You consider Ubuntu a system for "noobs?" The first computer I ever used was a PDP-10, I learned Assembly Language on my Apple ][+ in 1982, and I built my own car computer complete with an in-dash touchscreen LCD (surplus screen from an airplane seat, touchscreen overlay, vacuum-formed plastic housing) in 1998. |  | | For Ubuntu the system is based off of Debian's apt-get. |

 | | Ubuntu is the only Linux distro that has lasted more than a few days on any of my systems. |  | | Ubuntu is alright, but it's definitely not better than Windows. |  | | Before passing judgement on Linux, you need to figure out if you would actually like to work on the computer, instead of working to get it to work. |

 | | “Linux for human Beings” is the motto of Ubuntu Linux, a distribution based on Debian. |  | | I would even consider installing Ubuntu on my mom’s computer. |  | | 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. |

| | Planet Ubuntu |
 | | While Ubuntu itself will always be free, I think it doesn't hurt to have a cottage industry of commercial software around the platform. |  | | It has always been open knowledge that we would like to have a thriving software ecosystem revolving around Ubuntu, be it proprietary or free/open - this is one of the primary reasons why Ubuntu's specification process is open for all. |  | | This is fine and dandy if Ubuntu only has goals for commercial success (which would likely backfire since the goals are not ethical from the start). |

 | | Ubuntu lives up to its name in the sense that it brings more than a little humanity to Debian Linux. |  | | SarCheck is a UNIX performance analysis and tuning tool for most UNIX and Linux systems. |  | | Debian has a reputation for being difficult (compared with certain other distributions) for new Linux users to install and configure sometimes. |

 | | I have a copy of the Ubuntu Live CD in my backpack for emergency use when I am forced to use a non-Ubuntu computer. |  | | If you, like me, installed kubuntu-desktop to try it out, then afterward, you must have noticed that when you boot up, the kubuntu splash screen appears with 8220;kubuntu&; in blue (instead of the Ubuntu brown) while the computer is booting up. |  | | Even if it is not a problem, I found a solution, and so it deserves to be called a problem, just so I can write an entertaining article regarding how to fix this. |
