Konqueroring a Kbuntu installation
I made a mistake downloading the Kubuntu installation instead of the Xubuntu ISO file that I was really looking for. Anyway, I had a go at installing this Ubuntu EdgyEft sibling to try it out. Installed nicely into a VMWare virtual machine.
The interface has been built using the Debian KDE desktop system. For a Linux newbie like me, it was intuitive enough to navigate myself around, create this desktop screengrab image, fire up a Konqueror web browser then upload it to Flickr.
All in an idle evening playing about with Ubuntu. :-)
It was encouraging to read this blog post Yo Mamma likes Ubuntu. A mother who liked Ubuntu on her laptop so much that it was installed on all the other home computers. No slowdowns. No viruses. No spyware. (sigh) Yet another reason why Ubuntu is the Linux Poster Child.
