guys i want to install it in an external HDD, but the drive already contains some files that i want to use with XP. will i be able to use these files in xp and will they be safe from the install of ubuntu?

[chickenbiscito]

personally i dont like running a machine with windows and ubuntu BOTH on them, and if you want to save your files, i dont know man, you could lose them, it could save them, it all depends on how you partition it

[kamikazeOS]

damn, ok, i was looking for someone like you :))

...what's the fastest and more stable distro?

I mean I want to do multi-tasking..without lags:D

..the truth is my PC is kinda old ..AMD duron 1,6, fx 5200, 1g ram :(

[washitoriko]

well, all distros must have the same stability (unless you are using unstable versions) since they work with the same linux kernel.

The only differences i can tell is that the distros based on redhat, use the RPM package manager. The distros based on debian use the .deb packages (like ubuntu). I don't think there's a great difference since you can convert .deb in RPM.

[washitoriko]

The other important thing is that some distros are oriented to desktop users (like ubuntu, openSuse, mandriva). And other distros are oriented to servers (like debian). If you need to host a webpage, mail services, intra-nets, accounts management, and many other services, well, you need Debian. But if you need to play games (real games,like GTA, WoW, battlefield 1942, counter-strike), listen to your favorites mp3, watching dvds, view and work-out you photos, Opensuse or Ubuntu are for you.

[kamikazeOS]

thats helpful, thanks

the only thing IMO keeping back users from using Linux is the whole compiling thing...and configuration..I used Ubuntu for a while but it was kinda lagy maybe compiz ain't that good for me:P

@ anonymous123asd...sad Ubuntu is the worst, i wonder if he ever used it ...if you read this let;s here from you WHAT distro is the best? :)

[kamikazeOS]

Could somebody explain the thing with SWAP and ROOT ...I know some things..but is it necessary? ..why can't it make a swap like windows

oo and how big does the swap has to be for it to work fine..2 g?!

thanks in advance

[ssomb]

when u partition

you need

a

root

home

boot

swap

swap size is doulbe your ram

[zeppelin8787]

my PC is crappier than yours,but its running PERFECT ubuntu 8.04LTS.,and ,ofc,the 9.04(test release).most stable OS ive ever seen (comapred to fedora,suse,debian,solaris,win­dows)

[fosco222]

You need compiz 0.7.x or higher and the extra-plugins package installed

[kindom2009]

HARDCORE MAN SPINNIN CUBES

too bad this is the kind of thing that make people think all linux is is eye candy. ubuntu is possibly the worst distro.

[bigcountry4life5]

so these 3d desktop feature is standard with ubuntu? if I used ubuntu and the ubuntu windows emulating document editor, would it be compatible if i sent documents to my school computer which uses windows?

[fosco222]

i use recordmydesktop, sorry man, maybe you need a more powerful machine

[joocee102]

What is the recording application your using? I use recordmydesktop, but it uses so much processing power that it nearly paralyzes the whole system when I try to use sphere and cube effects. Also, love the video.

[alien102471]

I rather normal cube then cylinder cube...

[beginusinglinux]

Nice video. What do you think of Comfusion 2.0 based on Ubuntu?

[fosco222]

ubuntu + compiz, i think it is useless

but it may help some users :-?

[General734]

what do u press to go out of the desktop and into the cube, cylinder, ball, egg....?

thanks!

[fosco222]

There are many combinations, try Ctrl+Alt+Mouse button1, try Ctrl+Alt+RightArrow also

[SseBb]

btw how to install that?

I forgot ... -____-

I haven't bin long on Ubuntu

so I don't know how to install the Cube or Cilinder

Can you help?

Thanks

[mockstoday]

Just go to Applications - Add/Remove- And type "Advanced Desktop Effects" And you will see a program just download it and install it!

[Stahrmaster]

it's technically only "Desktop Effects" but yes...you're definitely right.

Just don't want anybody to get confused.

[cristian1million]

i have a problem when i do this when i try to install it it says that an error occurred!

it says:

ERROR Kdesudo

command not found!

please help me!

[nocstud]

you dont need to install the cube or anything, you just need to add the compiz settings wizard in your add or remove programs. search advanced compiz settings, advanced compiz is what i usually do, make sure you have all available apps available for search, and install the advanced compiz settings wizard. go to system - preferences - compizconfig settings manager and edit the effects and settings to your liking, good luck

[uranus300]

Wao cada vez tiene mejores efecto el sistema operativo Linux, impresionante.

UBUNTU IS OWNAGE

F*CK WINDOWS

sadly enough is windows world leading and we need windows ...for stuff that they wont code to linux

[washitoriko]

because of that we need to stop using windows. To encourage companies to build software for linux.
