I give Gutsy Gibbon (7.10) a try and i'm kinda liking it. It had been replacing my Kubuntu (Edgy based). My involvement with Ubuntu back dated to 2007 when i want to ensure i learn something every year. A new software, a new OS or perhaps learn to dance (hahaha...in your dream really). So, i give Ubuntu a try since i find Linux is a fear factor to me.
I start with Dapper Drake (6.06) and Edgy Eft (6.10). During that time, i just playing around with LiveCD. Space limitation not allowed me to install Ubuntu. Until i learn about Kubuntu, i finally get myself a better space (with hole on my wallet not to mention) and i finally install Kubuntu.
Kubuntu give me a bit of trouble here and there due to lots of things in Kubuntu different from Ubuntu, at least that what a newbie could see. Easiest example is Kubuntu using Adept while Ubuntu using Synaptic for package management. Everytime i google for Kubuntu solution, most web giving solution for Ubuntu. After some browsing at the office (when i'm totally bored), i found about Gutsy. I download Gutsy and burn a LiveCD.
So, now i'm running this blog from my Gutsy.
p/s: I'm still using my Windows for games and such. I really need to learn to use Ubuntu if i want total conversion to Ubuntu. Anyway, it's a good start with Ubuntu now. Thanks for those people who influenced me to start with Ubuntu.p/p/s: Gutsy still have problem in detecting my 320GB Seagate HDD which attached through IDE/RAID Card. I wonder how to solve that. My 500GB Western Digital which also attached through IDE/RAID card run smoothly. Some help absolutely needed.
p/p/p/s: Happy voting people!!

haha. Kubuntu = KDE Ubuntu. Boleh jer actually install Synaptic as well.
Boleh gak switch to Gnome from Kubuntu. I used to do that when the solution in the web is Ubuntu based.
But I love KDE more. It's nicer. Looks better than Gnome.
hahaha. frankly, KDE looks much more like windows while GNOME really distinguish Linux from WIndows. As a newbie, i find that the easiest solution work for me thus i choose to install Gutsy.
Adept aku cam pening, nak install package tp break. sakit ati gile. last2 aku install gutsy, everything run smoothly.
cuma kadang2 hang so i still need to find out the source of problem.
hoho. now, i love gnome more. hehehe.
(to think i hate Linux so much, it such a enlightening revelation).
Seagate snubs Linux with not supporting firmware for 320GB and 500GB HDD. argh...need to sell my Seagate. Bye bye Seagate!
