Well, I just wanted to note some stuff.
At first a friend of mine kept saying stuff like: "Ohh, you dont have those errors on Linux". And stuff like that, so I got curious and installed Linux (Ubuntu). At first it whas quite good, really stable, no hangings, no errors. And it whas like that for like 2-3 weeks. And I whas happy with it.
Later on a friend advised me to switch over to KDE, so I installed Kubuntu.
Like 1 more week it whas going good, but then problems started.
I got hangings, and programs like superkaramba used to much of my windows memmory. My audio players are all messed up, sometimes music starts up with 1 program, the second time with another. When I started up Ubuntu, and for example right clicked on the desktop, it froze. Or when I whas busy with it for a while, all the icons on my desktop disapeared for no reason O.O (Got back after restarting). Also, some programs just use to much memmory, my PC (Fans) usually make much noise when I play a game, but in this case, it makes much noise if I start up Azureus for example.
Later on, another thing whas added as a con to Linux -> I got a new game.
Every time I started up my PC, I switched over to windows, because of to many reasons.
If Windows freezes or has a error, it restarts up like turbo, but if ubuntu has a problem, you need to restart for quite a time.
I have no idea what to do now exacly, and have no idea why I have so many problems, while other people say stuff like: I can run Linux without restarting for like 3 days. Well I can run it for like 3 hours. =/
Maybe its just the KDE I installed, or maybe its the wrong version of Ubuntu, I dunno. I even dunno if this all is normal.
But I got 1 question: Am I doing something wrong? If so. What? How come people like Linux so much?
I hope for an answer, and some good comments =/
Cheers
