Tux has landed

Filed under: Personal, Technology

Installed Ubuntu on my new computer.

Posting this entry from it. 

Im really impressed with it emoticon functionality wise its much better than all other distros I tried to install on my old computer.

The Live CD feature helped me into deciding whether its right for me.

Only problem is the net connectivity, its because the Linux dialer which the Sify guys give doesn’t work well.

I called up Sify customer care they sent an engineer who said I dont know Linux…so simple.
Good for me because I started experimenting and finally it worked. emoticon

The workaround I tried was to connect in Windows (I have got dual boot the computer is used by others too) and then restart the compter in Ubuntu.

The Ubuntu forums give fast solutions for noobs like me.

Heres a screenshot of my desktop in Ubuntu. 

 

 

Downloaded this wallpaper from here.
