It’s the end of the month again, so I’m sifting through the blogs on the right, weeding out the ones that haven’t mentioned Linux in a month or so, and adding any new ones that deserve it.
Of course if you have a blog and you want a link there, let me know.
I’m also checking my mailing list subscriptions, and I’ve finally dropped my subscription to xubuntu-devel and xubuntu-user. In some ways, it’s an admission that Xubuntu went a different direction from what I needed, or wanted.
Strange, less than a year ago I still had a full-blown Xubuntu installation in place on at least one computer. What a difference a year makes. π
Now to hunt down a mailing list for Fluxbuntu.
hi, i’ve a blog about Ubuntu (i write only MY OWN experience with ubuntu…and when my experience is OK i like to write some posts on my blogs π i use it only for “how-to” XD for don’t forget how i use my ubuntu π )
only 1 problem…my blog is in italian..and you can read here how i can talk in english π¦ very bad..
anyway you have my link:D i can add you too in my blogroll if you can! bye
I added it. π I also put a little (IT) after it, so people know it’s in Italian. Cheers! π
thanks! i added your link too π bye
Glad to see my blog is still there, even with my lack of posts lately.
I have to admit; Xubuntu is a bit of a slug. Xubuntu Gutsy is a bit faster on the older equipment, but not much. For an absolute new user, Xubuntu as a GUI on older equipment is still important -for our Free Geek purposes- but as a power user, something much lighter is all that is needed. I haven’t played with Xubuntu yet, but it will have to be very impressive to beat DSL on old stuff, or Puppy. I’ll be giving Fluxbuntu a try in a few weeks.
That fact that someone hands me a computer and says, “This old thing just doesn’t work anymore,” and I can have it working perfectly in less than 5 minutes is just plain fun.
