Not using Ubuntu yet? Well I bet you cant do this. March 7th, 2008
Trying out the new Kubuntu February 25th, 2008
The new Kubuntu is out, not the official version but I think its alpha. Still, its great. I am a big fan of Gnome but I thought why not give KDE a try. I have’nt really worked on KDE since pclinuxos 0.92
Browsing around and opening programs are really fast. It might just be my imagination but its open and click. Now waiting.
The design and the theme almost reminds me of PClinuxos, my other favourite linux distro. Something that is new to me is the Adept Installer. I think its great as well. I quickly went to it and found firefox 3. So I am writing this while I am installing Firefox 3. I was also suprised to see that you can install Firefox 3 with Adblock firefox extension.
The background seems a bit overwhelming but i as I am typing this i am getting used to it. Kubuntu is brilliant. Same as the normal Ubuntu.
Just a quick post.
Gedit for Linux. Gnome software review. February 19th, 2008
You might think what? A review of a stupid Linux text editor? But in fact Gedit is not just a stupid Linux text editor. Its way more than just that.
You should really explore your programs in Linux. They have great features that are sometimes just tucked away from the eye. You need to dig deeper. Its not like Windows what you see is what you get type of thing.
The thing that seperates Gedit from others like notepad for windows is the small functions it has built in. Functions that are very useful.
Let me show you.
