Linux Mint Experience 01

[flashfith]

linux does the same thing as windows + much more+free programs+compiz+no viruses. windows = viruses+ pay for programs+crashes+blue screen+headaches+ugly user interface

[wobblyman2000]

could someone show some real linux and not just beryl there must be more to linux then playing with beryl

so let see some in action maybe then more people may switch to linux

almost every linux video I've looked at on youtube just shows beryl

so come on how about some real world stuff

[supercamelsam]

wtf do you want to see? People checking their emails? Typing documents? Gaming?

srsly.

[wobblyman2000]

well what about how linux works how to setup kde 4 what about some new linux shells not just kde gnome

some programs that you couldn't get on windows

where to find linux programs and how to install them and lots more

[sidar87]

You are right, and people like supercamelsam are idiots.

This video didn't tell me anything. I recently jumped to ubuntu(but still using windows for a large range of software) and the first thing i did was be sure all of that crap was turned off so i could see what linux was about when it comes to functionality and ability for the distro i have.

I'm interested in Mint but these video's aren't helping.Video walkthroughs would be nice. Show me the features/options/functionality­.

[warrenis1234]

are you kidding me? and i dont care that i'm late. these videos are just made as teasers. i orgininally saw one a few months ago and became interested in ubuntu, so i went to find out more information. i didnt go looking for it on youtube though, i went to forums, official websites, and googled 'walkthroughs' and 'reviews'.

these eye candy videos work because they bring people who dont know much and shock them because they've never seen it before. it brings smart windows losers to linux

great vid

I would like to do some stuff like that, but I never get a good video, I think its because the

gtk-record my desktop being not well configured..

=S

[georgke015]

why would anyone want ubuntu based system ? My ubuntu install recently fucked itself up: did an update and the wifi, sound card weren't detected anymore, and the cideo driver was fucked up

[r8qt7]

thats a problem of the kernel. use a newer kernel.

[buchalterN]

@reine00x: Isn't linux mint ubuntu-based as well? >But if this video is "out-of-the-box"gui then it's stunningly pretty

[robinjam304]

Yep, mint is based on Ubuntu. And AFAIK you have to manually turn on these effects.

[reine00x]

@ option man: This is linux with beryl installed by default. This is not available for windows or mac.

I use mint myself, it's what ubuntu should have been.

[optionman]

wow this is realy nice do they have this for windows XP

[sampattuzzi]

why do you want it on xp? get Linux, its much better and free. Or get vista if you need to stick with windows.

[MikesHeadRoom]

Somehow my video got added into the Linux Mint RSS feed. Awesome!
