Xubuntu 10.04 Review And First Impressions

This video, is a review of the newest Xubuntu release: 10.04. This Distro uses Xfce, which basically means, that you can install it on any computer. What about an old laptop from 1995? Bring it on, you can probably even run Compiz. This is an amazing Distro, which I love. I'm gonna be using this for a long time.

I'm a newbie and I was wondering how do you get the files to wobble like that when you move it around? And also when you first instal xubuntu how do you get firefox to work as a browser?

[UbuntuHelpGuy]

@Eltsacwenify You enable wobbly windows in Compiz. Im not sure what you mean with your second question.

[CaptainDurandal]

I'll be waiting for your video with instructions to install copiz. Are you really an Ubuntu Help Guy? Because, well, I'm using Xubuntu 9.4, and at first I had problems with Pulse Audio, and had to remove it because it always started muted, and I had to remove the Quite Splash because it made my computer to hang on a black screen. Is this 10.04 really lighter? Because my computer stinks. And, will my files will be deleted with the upgrade?

[UbuntuHelpGuy]

@CaptainDurandal I wrote a PM to you. 10.04 is much lighter and faster. But its up to you, mate

@trebor292 and this: watch?v=HMsyILrQYGg&feature=re­lated, loading image never showed up. The so called login thing i saw is a bios looking thing (black with smal white text)

[trebor292]

I have installed xubuntu on my old year 2000 laptop. The specs are good enough, but when i try to start it up i only comes to a black screen that shows login or somthing. And a half second later, the screen turns totally off (laptop screen! ffs) and the pc seems to be turned off, but it isn't.

Do you know what's wrong? (i have already reinstalled one time)

If not, could you recommend an other Linux OS?

[AxleGear89]

it's the first time i'm using a non-windows OS, i'm trying with this Xubuntu in an old pc and it's plain frustration. at the end of the setup when i click restart to complete, while he's checking something, it ejects the disc from the drive and i get a shitload of reading adress errors, then it reboots and runs like ass. then, when i was trying a different text DPI (96 by default) when i clicked it jumped to 1000 and applied in real time so now words are 3 time bigger than the screen. WTF?

Why is XFCE on Ubuntu so ugly? XFCE on Linux Mint looks just like Linux Mint, but XFCE on Ubuntu looks like... uh... totally different...

[maw88ify]

I like " MyPaint "...

[xMandalorex]

xubuntu probs one of the best linux distros to use as a server if you have a very old pc lol

got mine up and running via a pentium 2  FTP/WEB server
