The postman delivered another package for me, the other day.
As I wrote earlier, you can request a set of Ubuntu cds, to be posted to you, completely free of charge. Just register, fill in your address, the amount of cds you want to receive, and you’re done!
So I did that a few weeks ago, and now I’ve got 5 boxes, each containing one install cd and one live cd of Ubuntu 5.10 “Breezy Badger”!
Kubuntu
Last week I installed Kubuntu on my home pc. Last month, (K)Ubuntu version 5.10 “The Breezy Badger” was released.
The installation was without much trouble. The only problem I have is with my Abit Hotrod IDE controller. Because my harddisks are connected to that instead of the onboard controller, they are /dev/hde and /dev/hdg. I have had these problems before with other distributions, and back then I had to download a bootfloppy-image with the correct support for this controller, before I could even start the installation.
None of that now, luckily. I booted from the cd, it detected my disks, installed everything, no problem.
