Welcome to the Ubuntu GNU/Linux world... : - ) If you ever need some software to get installed in your system, the "Software Center", is your helper. Installing a software in Windows "Click Setup.exe" is quite different in Linux, and it is easier in Linux than in Windows as long as the software is present in the "Software Center."

I was attempting to install Windows7 on my laptop but for some reason I cannot. Even with a clean install. My friend's got a 9.04 and he told me to wipe my laptop clean by installing Ubuntu and clean install Windows7 after... didn't work! And soooo... I got stuck with with the 9.04! BUT when the Update Manager showed an Upgrade to 10.10, i clicked on upgrade and soon after... my laptop won't start! Tried slipstreaming Windows... didn't work! Then I made a Pendrive installer of Ubuntu10.04 following on-line instructions, installed it on my laptop and have been enjoying Ubuntu since then. I am a convert and have been showing my new OS (with the jiggling windows) to my peers. One friend has actually installed Ubuntu using the Pendrive I created. Am still discovering a lot of things about Ubuntu hence I joined the Mailing list. Now... am a bit nervous about these changes you are talking about here... Sorry... am not a full time techie (or what some call a geek), I'm an above average Windows user and would like to be formally "doctrinized" on Ubuntu... Am really starting to like it but am beginning to be wary...

Something that's new will always be weird :). A radical approach will always be weird :). -- ------------------------------------------------------------- "Penguin, penguin, and more penguin !" www.madforubuntu.com baudizm.blogsome.com -- ubuntu-ph mailing list ubuntu-ph@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-ph
