Yes! All we need is a train-ship-thing made of unobtainium and a motley crew of genius scientists and astronauts. To work it will be absolutely essential that the co-pilot is fairly hot but completely incompetent, and be banging one of the scientists by the end of the movi...err...expedition.

Works perfect on both OpenSUSE and Fedora. I'm assuming the same is true of Mint since it's Ubuntu based. I hear it's no big deal to get it running on Arch as well. It's not like Ubuntu has a lock on Steam or anything.

No kidding. Not to mention, that now that they've ironed out some of the bugs in the current Unity, the plan is to completely rewrite it in Qt/QML, and this release is only supported for 9 months. This is pretty much the most pointless release of Ubuntu to date.

It's not competitive pressures. You've bahaved like a total douchenozzle. Don't be surprised when people start pointing it out to you.

Ahh Robin Ventura. Also known as the retard who tried to charge Nolan Ryan and got his ass beat by an old man. One of my fonder memories from spending a good part of my life attached to a 1st base side seat in Arlington.

An insect that will frst fuck you, then kill you by beheading?

Linode hacked again!? Seriously, for the premium they're charging, beefing up security might do well to be added to their todo list.

Just to be clear, is that the original Slashdot posting or the dupe?

> There is so much community support out there you can google any problem and find a walk through

Sure. NOW there is. Give it a couple years. You know all those geeks that Shuttleworth decided to kick in the nuts and send packing? Those are the same guys who made the walk throughs for his pet retards to follow. It'll be interesting to see what happens as Ubuntu evolves all on it's lonesome now, without that support.

I'm not in this fight, as I care for neither Ubuntu nor Debian. However, I have a bone to pick with #2.

No, you don't get security updates until 2017. You get security updates only on packages that Canonical hand picked for that particular release. Hence, your dwm (or really it could be any WM/DE other than Unity) and any other packages that stray from that line, are absolutely left in the cold and unpatched, unloved as soon as next-new-shiny gets released.

Well then. TIL

Tha hell has noon got to do with anything?

And stop bitching already people! Get a fucking sense of humor already.

A little bit of info and perspective on the whole "deal with Microsoft" nonsense. I see it's come up a couple of times in this thread. Mostly from people who don't have a lot of knowledge on the subject. First, "the deal" was between Novell and Microsoft.

At the time, Novell owned SuSE, as in the Enterprise version. OpenSUSE got a lot of stuff contributed from SuSE, but was and is completely community based, so it has absolutely nothing to do with "the deal".

Since then, Attachmate bought Novell, and split Novell and SuSE off into their own separate companies. Basically at this point "the deal" means absolutely nothing, has little relevance as far as SuSE is concerned, and still absolutely none in regards to OpenSUSE.

openSUSE is not "a KDE distro". Both Gnome and KDE are on equal terms these days.

- Posted from a freshly installed 12.3 Gnome desktop. Installed from the DVD, which requires a choice between the two but in fact defaults to the Gnome desktop. Only default because G comes before K and the list is alphabetical.

The type of user who uses RHEL on a workstation is not the same as the distro hoppers who jump from one flavor of Ubuntu to another just because a package isn't included in the default of an icon got moved. They will simply use Firefox or do a custom build of Chromium or something, but jumping distros is likely not a consideration.
