Third point, people are so obsessed with windows that they think linux is also windows.The_Devil_Himself said:^^hmm...yea man you need to download codecs to play most media files.
I have a question to all you guys:Now as you know a net connection is required to download codecs to play most media files in Ubuntu this is a big turnoff to most people not having any net connection.I face a lot of problems when I distribute Ubuntu Cds(I made several copies of fiesty fawn to distribute in my class)...When I tell them that they will need to download codecs to play even mp3 files....The people having net connection goes like uhh..wtf?
Now I have several questions:
1.I can download .deb file for codecs but it is not feasible to provide them in additional CD to all of them so is there any way to integrate these codes in the same cd?
2.Digit provides atleast 1 distro every month....Is there any way to 'extract' distro from the bootable DVDs and burn them into Cds(I am planning to make Mint CDs).Unfortunately I don't have unlimited net connection.
3.How can I increase Linux awareness in my college?I mean even after you put up in all the notice boards that I am providing free Linux CDs not many students come up.This is very disheartening.Another day on of my close friends asked for Fiesty fawn CDs so I made one and gave it to him and the very next day he returned me my CD...I said what happened din't you like it?He said he has made .iso file and will use it later...This is inspite of the fact that I had explained in detail to him that he can 'try' this livecd before actually installing it...It is so difficult to generate interest specially in your nearest friends even if you provide them free CDs and DVDs.

Yea man I can get ubuntu ultimate but it is quite big and it will need DVDs to burn onto....This will put more strees on my already stressed pocket.QwertyManiac said:1. Yes do that! Crank up your Ubuntu to full power with all things installed and then install APTOnCD and make an update CD and pass it on to your friends About the same CD, there are ways I think but they're quite complicated ... You can instead go with Linux Mint or Ubuntu Ultimate etc the easy way.
Well I feel like that I should give something back to them.....and this is the least I can do.3. I got no clue, I just gave up. I'm happy for myself :\
