Here are the Show notes for the 08-20-06 Ubuntu OS podcast with James and Sal:

UbuntuOS Podcast for 08-20-06

Show notes:

What do you wish Kubuntu would include that it dose not yet include?
(Synaptic, Full open office (not just the base 4 applications), GnuCash
and GIMP, gimp is a must have since its replacement SUCKS!)

Should Kubuntu include flash and java preinstalled (out-of-the-box)?

new xorg (7.1) in Edgy includes support for aiglx, should Kubuntu support this dooring the install process?

AMD thinking about open sourcing the ATI Drivers, is this good for Linux?

My dealings with knetwork manager
(Notes: Its a good program, tho I still want better SAMBA and ZeroConf support.)

My dealings with 3-D Desktop
http://desk3d.sourceforge.net/

KDE 3.5.4 released (another step to KDE 4)
http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-354.php

Should Kubuntu include Firefox in it's next release (out-of-the-box)
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/

Could we have a new installer for Kubuntu that's like the Mandriva, SUSE and
Fedora installers, the live CD method takes up to much room.

What about a Ubuntu/Kubuntu Pro edition that uses 3 or 4 DVDs but installs a massive development/graphics/audio-visual editing environment. I would love to see this out
of the box. Leading on to the next topic.....

"Custom Ubuntu/Kubuntu distributions"
How easy is it to make your own set of packages and an install disks, and it is it a good idea for business/high end users.

Ok, people can download the mp3 and ogg from the following mirrors. There is only 1 mirror for each file format this week as one of our mirrors needs to be fixed for our account:

Ogg: Mirror1 (http://www.tricubo.com/ubuntuos/ep12-082006-ubuntuos.ogg)
Mp3: Mirror1 (http://spaceless.stanford.edu/~josh/ep12-082006-ubuntuos.mp3)
