Hi all,
Dibu - "Let me ask you, how many of the members would be using a
distro
listed in www.gnu.org/distros ? Most of us either use Debian, Ubuntu etc."
Well i am proud to say that i do :). I tried out almost every distro shown
there
and i settled on Trisquel GNU/Linux :)...Trust me its awesome and u will love
it
:). Now i have removed Ubuntu from my system. Trisquel is an Ubuntu derivative
:). I felt that its more professional than Uttoto :). Check out the link and u
will see for urself :)
Official Site : http://trisquel.info
It also plays MP3 out of the box :).. Its just that the
"Multiverse" is removed from Ubuntu as well as the proprietary modules :). Any
package which does not depend on any "Multiverse" packages and are designed for
Karmic Koala will work perfectly :). I just fell in love with it when i tried
it
:). Also without any proprietary help, it took all my hardware on my Acer
Netbook flawlessly including the resolution (Which was the issue i had on
Gnewsense). The current version is Awen 3.5 and is based on Karmic Koala. Very
soon they will release 4.0 Taranis and i am waiting for it :).
With Best Regards,
Happy Hacking!! ;)
