Star Ubuntu: could do with a bit more work
Linked by Neil Lucock on Tue 22nd Feb 2005 22:17 UTC
Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu I'd better start by admitting that I'm a fan of KDE. It's not because it works like Windows, but for the quality of the tools available. However, a GUI is just a way of doing something and I think I've been a bit dismissive of the Gnome desktop up to now. I read a few reviews of Ubuntu, looked at their web site and decided to have a look. I wanted a general purpose (desktop) distribution and an opportunity to get to know the Gnome utilities.

Sudo is better anyway.

Why do you need a root password? "sudo su -" will get you into a root shell just as easily as "su" would with a root password.
