Title: Man, I'm happy now!
Post by: pofnlice on 3 July 2006, 19:57
Ok, after the SuSE events, I decided to try out the ubuntu 6.06 I just downloaded and burned.

I repartitioned my hd, installed, it asked me a few questions and bang, it was installed. As it was shutting down, the end session tune sounded. I was like, yeah man, I don't have to configure my sound card!

I rebooted and boom! It was online checking for updates...all ready! So I was like, Yeah Man! I don't have to config my ethernet card!

It downloaded and installed all the updates, then asked to reboot...I was like, Uh oh man...Suse never did that!

I rebooted, checked my video card, all ready config'ed! I was like, Yeah Man! I don't have to config my vid card.

I've stopped at that pointt to come here and express my happiness to you all!

I believe you were asked to reboot because of an update to the kernel, they don't happen that often. I was asked to reboot once in over a month of using Ubuntu 6.06.

Glad you're liking it!

Yeah, the only time you need to reboot is to boot a new kernel ... see everyone should try ubuntu ... they're bound to like it. (Maybe I should try it too, but there is one thing I don't like, it's them putting some things in different places than most other distros ... which is the cause of most compatibility problems you might experience when trying to install something made for a different distro ... if you ever need to)
