Gibbon is still an Ape

[Faun]

He is making fun of Meri Jaan Ubuntu lets make fun of him. Few reasons why chemistry between imav and ubuntu is not good.

Ubuntu is not for viruses

i - I
m - m
a - a
v - virus

While windows is a safe heaven for viruses but ubuntu is no good for them. So how a virus(imav) is expecting happy journey with it

Possible Solution : Change ur name, reinstall n then try


Ubuntu is not yet idiot proof
He struck his head with monitor and expected ubuntu to stop him doing so or at least should have warned him but ubuntu didn't.
He may have found these features in windows (expecting same thing from ubuntu) as he may be using Windows Vista Idiots Edition but sorry to say that ubuntu community is yet to come out with idiot proof edition.

Possible Solution : Ubuntu versions go like this

D - Dapper Drake ( Ubuntu 6.06)
E - Edgy Eft ( Ubuntu 6.10)
F - Feisty Fawn ( Ubuntu 7.04)
G - Gusty Gibbon ( Ubuntu 7.10)
H - Hardy Haron ( Ubuntu 8.04)
I - Idiots Invited ( Ubuntu 8.10)
In 8.10 there'll definitely be some hope for you.

Till then happy sucking

lol..
Am waiting for that idiot invited edition, maybe then my colleagues will install ubuntu.

nice acronym expansion, should i add one abt VISTA

stop it guys he's trying his best and IMO he's loving it but he won't admit for obvious reasons.

yeah thats why we are tryin to help him

Isn't everything already there? When was the last time u needed to install a runtime library other then .net in Windows XP & none in Windows Vista

wat bout java applications, codec packages (Klite), openAL, Float 32 Mod, WMV 9 runtime files, not even a single database software is there(oracle/My SQL)..etc

Windows just prefer encapsulation instead of making things transparent.

U still hav to dowload the installer and get the damn thing working.

In all the 20+years I've been using computers starting from DOS up 95,98,ME,2K, XP and Vista the only OS that I have ever come across my entire life that provides better Out of the Box usability has been Ubuntu Fiesty Fawn! Personally I swear by GOD that it is the easiest that I have ever seen in my entire life! Everything I had just worked! Hell, my Sony ericsson phone just plugged in and voila!! It worked! while i spent approx 45mins installing sony software on XP! and lot of other things i had, it just worked!

For those of you who crib about it not being better out of the box just because it doesn't play mp3 or you would have to download additional software if you need them, how much more historic can your brains be? Can anyone please enlighten me as to where I can find a Windows Live CD???? Can anyone send me one? lol... wait.. I guess Windows provide better out of the box experience that an Ubuntu Live CD!! WTF?

Installing mp3 support or getting additional reps is certainly not as sad as installing and getting windows to run for the first time!!

seriously man u just beat arya in making stupid against MS comments

 

[Cyrus_the_virus]

seriously man u just beat arya in making stupid against MS comments

Thanks..... and since it's coming from an illogical kiddo like you, I'm more than happy to accept it... do you have anything more to say about me?

and as far as the ultimate edition is concerned.... 1.7gb p0rn rox man

And don't open your mouth so much, the Gamers Edition ultimate DVD is 3.8GB.

o ya btw thre is a windows like live version dont have it but a couple of my frenz have it i forgot the name

lol.. is that the best excuse or so called answer you got?

 

[iMav]

o ya btw thre is a windows like live version dont have it but a couple of my frenz have it i forgot the name

dude u talking about live version .... the only good use that a live version has that it can be used on a windows installed system and 1 doesnt need to do a full install of this great os of urs and 1 can just use and throw it away in the corner of the room ....

windows as compared to linux is more prefered and understood and hence ppl prefer it installed on their system and for their occasional requirement of something linux they can use linux live cd .... it doesnt make it better than windows it just makes sure ppl can use without having to go thru the hassles of dwnlding packages aafter packages to make it work like an OSshud

@iMav

may be u r looking for something like this

I havent tried this one but looks promising

[Sykora]

how abt u guys stop trying to convince the world that using windows makes u average and that windows is hopeless

When we have all accepted that Linux is by geeks and for geeks, where do all the average users go? Not linux, because then they'd have to either be geeks (which they're not), or become geeks (which takes time, work and discipline which they don't have, else they wouldn't be average). ergo they are using either windows or a mac.

There was another thread about a bet a guy made with a friend that ubuntu was better than windows for everything except gaming and some hardware support. But that guy promised to try it for 30 days. I don't know how long you've used linux, but I'm pretty sure it hasn't been that long. Ask yourself if you would be capable of sitting through ubuntu for one month. Because the first 2-3 days of any OS install is not going to be typical of how you'll use it for the next year or so. If you want to give ubuntu a fair try, learn to use it. If you don't want to give it a fair shot, this thread is largely useless.

how much time can i rest patiently to these ignorant win boys!
Yes.GNU/Linux is really a threat to Windows monopoly,admit it!
creating FUD is the work these winfanboys only know.many came and look at the title and return back,hows their idea?If i post a thread here with "Vista is still a wild board sh!tting all over" then the dear mod will come fast and make sure it is locked and the title edited.what about Linux?the user community have to fight against these morons who are here to create blasphemy regarding Ubuntu and Linux itself.
Linux FTW! is the reality!
Anytime dudes! Linux pwns windows,the platform itself is much superior why cant u fanboys open to this.Linux is UNIX-like and UNIX is here for past 37+ years?many a research done on UNIX making it superior platform/UNIX is linked with C language(D.Ritchie) itself.
And how can u compare Linux or BSDs(especially) to those puny windows versions?windows su^ks big anytime.the windows platform is not stable and the only soltn for most users is to format and reinstall,with VIsta they got DRM rootkit too inside their OS.now can we sue them for infringing fair use right?No.why?becoz they are $$$ monopoly.
while M$ is behind Open Source Community and Linux by FUDing Linux infringing their bloo%y damn software patents!
why do M$ came with the FUDs for this long time?their marketing researchers
know that OSS is gaining a good share already in Enterprise systems and now in Home Desktop users too.thanks to the stable platform!
and most win users are really dumbos(yes!) who dont know anything unless they are interested in it.<====I am proud to say the reality!
try me!come on do any mods care to edit the title of the thread after these many days?NO.what if it is windows or Vista,they will jump soon to lock or edit the title.I asks any sincere neutral mods(most are!) to edit the title to "A gutsy review done by imav" =>better this way
and again for the sake of potential windows users moving to Linux am posting a neat explanation which you would like to read and makes u know what OSS community means:
Linux is NOT Windows!
*linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
and read
*getgnulinux.org and *whylinuxisbetter.net patiently!Happy Linuxing/FOSS,ur welcome

Again, parakash..shouting won't hide the truth that Windows is easier to use then Linux

 

[praka123]

tell me,is Gnome or kde does look hard?and with compiz-fusion?then it is the problem of the win user addicted to win gui,they must have the patience to move to the new system.dont look Linux/BSDs as alternative to windows.Linux is another totally different and secure system which you have to get accustomed.
ur talking BS

 

[iMav]

prakash sir the meaning of the word gibbon is an ape like creature or something ... and using it as a figure of speech the title only indicates that gutsy gibbon/ubuntu 7.10 is still pre-historic as compared to xp and still has a long way to go before it can affect or hamper windows dominance as a credible and usable OS

 

[praka123]

^that is because ur mind &soul is already sold to microwsoft.and it is not my problem.and dont call me sir,call me "Jeshtha"(elder)
am talking about Linux and OSS.

 

[gxsaurav]

]wat bout java applications, codec packages (Klite), openAL, Float 32 Mod, WMV 9 runtime files,

Microsoft was sued for bundling there own Windows Optimised version of JAVA Virtual machine, so it cannot be given.

Codec packs are not made by MS. Again, they will be sued if they bundle. It's not OSS that anyone can give anyone else's product without asking or permission. This is a world where business means money. There is already a thread explaining why & what cannot be given in Windows.

OpenAL is a driver which comes with the sound card driver. Vista already has OpenAL support inbuilt.

Hell, my Sony ericsson phone just plugged in and voila!! It worked! while i spent approx 45mins installing sony software on XP!

My K750i works fine in vista as a removable drive fine with no drivers. I don't need any SE software for it to work. R U sure u were not following the default way in Vista?

Can anyone please enlighten me as to where I can find a Windows Live CD????

Lozl...so in your opinion ease of use depends only on the Window Manager ...he he he

 

[praka123]

LOLZ? what? what about the tools and multimedia players and every other things which are there.I said Gnome or Kde bcoz Vista fanboys are always comparing with win GUI!there is almost everything windows have and more in Linux!and esp no WINDOWS ROT that means low defragmentation.

Will say some proffesionals will need windows as of now with autocad,photoshop etc.and hardcore win gamers-they will need windows.
infact windows is mostly used for gaming only!its a gaming gui shell,it is not for secure usage.Vista sucks with gaming too!Windows ME's ghost is haunting Vista!anytime it will die esp when xp sp3 is out!even xp is not justifiable or secure!reality that is!dont make urself a poojari of billy gate the monopolist marketing genius!

dont make urself a poojari of billy gate the monopolist marketing genius!

U said it, even that is a art & he is genius

u forgot about the most widely used and accepted Office SUite - MS Office

however now lets see:

windows is used for games: accepted by prakash jeshtha (i hope iv used the word correctly)
Windows is used for work: autocad; ps; corel; office 2k7 blah blah - accpeted by prakash jeshtha
windows is used for entertainment: has its own media center

ab aur bacha kya computer mein karne k liye hogaya na ... kaam karta hai; maza karvata hai computer aur karta kya hai

Just because you quoted his entire post doesn't mean you actually read it.

Rightly said, now plz tell other lingeeks to stop saying "Linux is threat to Windows", cos this way it is not.

It isn't now, but it is on the path to becoming a threat. Canonical, Novell are all trying to make linux more marketable to the "average" user, dumbing it down until they get the hang of it.

Lozl...so in your opinion ease of use depends only on the Window Manager

Not just the window manager, but for average users, yes, pretty much.

Of course Bill gates is a genius. You can't become the richest man in the world by being an idiot. Have you seen "Pirates of Silicon Valley"? Of course not. Just becuase you're successful doesn't mean what you've done to get there is in any way "ethical". Especially not in business.

The republic of timbaktu is a threat to Chinese economy, it's on the path at least & in few years it will distroy the indian & chinese economy

Come back here, when it is even remotely close to a threat to Windows. You say Aero's system requirment is high. yo, it required 512 MB RAM & A Geforce FX 5200 something even u guys recomended to use Compiz to the max. These were released in 2003 so in no manner they are high system requirments in 2007.

 

[ray|raven]

I Wondered what i would miss when i took the weekend off.
Nuthin much....just another Lin vs Win Debate. Lolz.

@Praka123.
Dont you get it,Even after going through all those previous debates,
these win boys dont get the essence of OSS.
The more you try to explain to them,the more they ignore.
Vish's siggy is what we should follow here

Regards,
ray

iv dwnlding packages & softwares for the past 3 days

can post your list, which you downloaded besides the default install?
