PotatoHead's Journal: Running Dapper Drake Today...

I'm impressed!

So far, pretty much everything but playing DVD media has just worked right the first time out of the gate. I decided to run the Gnome based core system and I'm liking it. Still miss KDE, but the differences are not stark enough to worry too much about. What I need is there with few hassles.

Most importantly, the package management system is top-notch. Things just install with few worries. It's not that I can't go get some code and install it, then configure, etc... I can. It's that I don't often want to. Very good show so far.

One worry these days. How does one capture a snapshot of all the important software in case of a shutdown. With the legal environment today, this is a clear reality. As much as I love just grabbing the necessary bits online, will they be there later when / if I need them again?

KUBUNTU

Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE. Works the same, but has the wonderful and beloved KDE instead of Gnome. Or you can install KDE over Ubuntu and have both.

Yep, I saw it actually.

Decided to just run the core distro for now. So far, the differences are not a biggie.
