Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu And here's yet another Ubuntu 8.04 alpha release. "The Ubuntu developers are moving very quickly to bring you the absolute latest and greatest software the Open Source Community has to offer. Hardy Heron Alpha 6 is the sixth and final alpha release of Ubuntu 8.04, and with this new alpha release comes a whole host of excellent new features." And screenshots.

I felt your pain also, it's an absolute joke of a user alienating piece of <insert own profanity here>.

Not only does it screw everything up. When you try to help newbs with their config, it screws you up also ;)
Especially when trying to install EVIL-not nVidia drivers.

Anyway, the best thing I found in the latest versions of Ubuntu is the "Install a command line system", Install option. Just do that and then apt-get whatever you need from there and all is sweet again ;)

Hopefully and I'm crossing my fingers, this release won't be another nightmare like Gutsy. What a disappointment that was ;) Still running 64bit Feisty here with pleasure, though it's starting to show its age.
