Hey there
I rescued an iMac G5 from a dumpster a few weeks back. It worked fine in OSX, but I want a real OS, not one that looks like it was designed by Crayola.
I've installed Lubuntu 12.10...
If 16gb were written, it's a 16gb card. Are you sure you didn't lose the files due to corruption or a mistake?
I've recently switched my desktop and my secondary laptop to Bodhi Linux. e17 really is excellent.
I'm interested to see what Unity is like in 11.10, and if I find it as horrible to use as I did...
Crunchbang is essentially Debian. It uses apt-get.
Slackware...
Well.
You'll need to read a book on installing software on Slackware :p
BUT UBUNTU HAS TEH UNITY I NEVER TOUCH IT AGAIN.
Also, how is babby made?
'Waaaaahhh Linux is constantly evolving and changing and THE DEVS DROPPED MY ONE ISLAND OF UNCHANGING UNIFORMITY'.
I guess there's always Debian for those folks ;)
It's sensationalist; people throwing their toys out of the pram. A few months and they'll be back again with a 'WINDOWS IS SO CRAP' intro post :p
Or, press super, type 'term' and press enter. Takes three seconds, and, most importantly, the same as in unity.
We don't know if it's actually customized, of if they've just squirted vanilla Ubuntu on there. Chances are, with the hardware it's got it will work with any modern OS, so it's just vanilla ubuntu.
surely if it comes with ubuntu and you want to put something else on, it's the same as having no OS? since you're going to wipe it anyway, and theres no such thing as a 'linux tax', heh.
See the post above yours ;)
3.x are tablet-oriented releases, they won't be great on a netbook like this.
What you quoted answers all your questions - it explains what to do, and has working links for the files you need.
Someone who knows python (probably the easiest language to learn) could modify the OS incredibly easily, I guess?
In the old days there was cshell, where the syntax was similar to that of C. What about pyshell, where the syntax is similar to that of python, for scripting?
So why does it say this in the GPL?
I'm going to say it again, if something is licensed at GPL, it cannot be made proprietary. Now, the MIT and BSD licenses are different, but Unity is mostly GPL.
Um, do you actually understand the GPL? Under the GPL, all derivative works must be released under a comparable license.
Write a kernel in Python. Go on, I dare you :lol:
Dude, WTF?

GPL and LGPL. Seems pretty FOSS to me ;)
Well, the point is kind of moot considering you can choose between them at the login screen anyway.
Notice it says 'For Debian' above that? Follow the next section, only for Natty, so
# gpl.code.de
deb http://gpl.code.de/ubuntu natty/
deb-src http://gpl.code.de/ubuntu natty/
Linux isn't...
Why does anyone need to go poking around in the folder structure? It's not like we need to be installing no-cd cracks and patched DLLs manually to make things run ;)
But, why do you need so many? Is there another solution that could fulfil your needs?
