JESUS FUCK

IS IT NORMAL FOR IT TO TAKE 12 HOURS?

No, only if you internet is shit. It should take a couple hours, which is why you do it overnight.

btw 11.10 is going to have Linux 3

Why Natty? There are still a number of problems being ironed out. Why not Lucid or Maverick?

> IS IT NORMAL FOR IT TO TAKE 12 HOURS?
No, but try Gentoo if you're into that sort of thing.

I had been using Unity on my netbook for a while, I sort of liked it and I didn't want to have to burn an ISO of Netbook edition to my only CD.

Also, picture related.

What has your experience with Unity been like? Also, you might want to avoid 2.6.38-9 kernels (especially if you are running on a netbook) for a while as they seem to have some power consumption/management issues.

Unity is well suited for what it was originally intended for: use on small screens.
Everything was really easy to find and use once you got used to it, but the first few hours of fucking with it were hard.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Linux just seems so crippling to me, it offers no advantages for the average user and its just one headache after the other. So why Ubuntu OP?
