Our goal is to cover the basics of Ubuntu (su as installation and working with the desktop) as well as guide you through some of the most popular applications. We designed this guide to be simple to follow with step-by-step instructions and plenty of screenshots, allowing you to discover the potential of your new Ubuntu system even if you are a novice computer user or are migrating from another operating system for the first time. Please bear in mind that this guide is still very mu a work in progress and always will be. It is wrien specifically for Ubuntu . , and al- though we have aimed to not limit our instructions to this version it is un- avoidable that some things will ange over the life of Ubuntu. Whenever a new version of Ubuntu is released, we will incorporate any anges into our guide, and make a new version available at http://www.ubuntu-manual.org.

We will try our best to include links to more detailed help wherever we can. Ubuntu philosophy e term “Ubuntu” is a traditional African concept that originated from the Bantu languages of southern Africa. It can be described as a way of connect- ing with others—living in a global community where your actions affect all of humanity. Ubuntu is more than just an operating system: it is a community of people that come together voluntarily to collaborate on an international soware project that aims to deliver the best possible user experience. The Ubuntu promise ‣ Ubuntu will always be free of arge, along with its regular enterprise releases and security updates. . ‣ Ubuntu comes with full commercial support from Canonical and hundreds of companies from across the world. ‣ Ubuntu provides the best translations and accessibility features that the free soware community has to offer. ‣ Ubuntu core applications are all free and open source. We want you to use free and open source soware, improve it, and pass it on. A brief history of Ubuntu Ubuntu was conceived in by Mark Shuleworth, a successful South African entrepreneur, and his company Canonical. Shuleworth recognized Canonical is the company that provides the power of Linux and Open Source, but was also aware of weaknesses that financial and technical support for Ubuntu. They have employees based around the prevented mainstream use. world who work on developing and im- Shuleworth set out with clear intentions to address these weaknesses proving the operating system, as well as reviewing work submied by volunteer con- and create a system that was easy to use, completely free (see Chapter : tributors.

With the Debian system as a base, Shuleworth began to build Ubuntu. Using his own funds at first, installation s were pressed and shipped worldwide at no cost to the end user. Ubuntu spread quily, the size of the community rapidly increased, and it soon became the most popular Debian-based Linux distribution available. Now with more people working on the project than ever before, Ubuntu continues to see improvement to its core features and hardware support, and has gained the aention of large organizations worldwide. For example, in Dell began a collaboration with Canonical to sell computers with Ubuntu pre-installed. Additionally, in the Fren Police began to transition their entire computer infrastructure to a variant of Ubuntu—a process whi has reportedly saved them “millions of Euro” in licensing fees for Microso Windows. By the year , the Fren Police anticipates that all of their computers will be running Ubuntu. Canonical profits from this arrangement by providing tenical support and custom-built soware.

Ubuntu is built on the foundation of Linux, whi is a member of the Unix family. Unix is one of the oldest types of operating systems and has provided reliability and security in professional applications for almost half a century. Many servers around the world that store data for popular websites (su as YouTube and Google) run some variant of a Unix system.

You will no doubt notice many similarities to both Microso Windows and Mac , as well as some things that work very differently. Users coming from Mac are more likely to notice similarities due to the fact that both Mac and Ubuntu originated from Unix.

It seems like everyone these days is downloading, watching, and sharing videos from video-sharing sites like YouTube, Google Video, MetaCafe, DailyMotion, Veoh, Break, and a ton of other similar sites. Whether you want to watch the video on your iPod while working out, insert it into a PowerPoint presentation to add some spice, or simply download a video before it’s removed, it’s quite essential to know how to download, convert, and play these videos. There are basically two ways to download videos off the Internet and that’s how I’ll split up this post: either via a web app or via a desktop application. Personally, I like the web applications better simply because you don’t have to clutter up and slow down your computer with all kinds of software!

  • Schon Mal Dran Gedacht,Linux Auszuprobieren? Von G. Schmidt
    Schon mal dran gedacht, Linux auszuprobieren? Eine Einführung in das Betriebssystem Linux und seine Distributionen von Günther Schmidt-Falck Das Magazin AUSWEGE wird nun schon seit 2010 mit Hilfe des Computer-Betriebs- system Linux erstellt: Texte layouten, Grafiken und Fotos bearbeiten, Webseiten ge- stalten, Audio schneiden - alles mit freier, unabhängiger Software einer weltweiten Entwicklergemeinde.

  • Download Android Os for Phone Open Source Mobile OS Alternatives to Android
    download android os for phone Open Source Mobile OS Alternatives To Android. It’s no exaggeration to say that open source operating systems rule the world of mobile devices. Android is still an open-source project, after all. But, due to the bundle of proprietary software that comes along with Android on consumer devices, many people don’t consider it an open source operating system. So, what are the alternatives to Android? iOS? Maybe, but I am primarily interested in open-source alternatives to Android. I am going to list not one, not two, but several alternatives, Linux-based mobile OSes . Top Open Source alternatives to Android (and iOS) Let’s see what open source mobile operating systems are available. Just to mention, the list is not in any hierarchical or chronological order . 1. Plasma Mobile. A few years back, KDE announced its open source mobile OS, Plasma Mobile. Plasma Mobile is the mobile version of the desktop Plasma user interface, and aims to provide convergence for KDE users. It is being actively developed, and you can even find PinePhone running on Manjaro ARM while using KDE Plasma Mobile UI if you want to get your hands on a smartphone. 2. postmarketOS. PostmarketOS (pmOS for short) is a touch-optimized, pre-configured Alpine Linux with its own packages, which can be installed on smartphones. The idea is to enable a 10-year life cycle for smartphones. You probably already know that, after a few years, Android and iOS stop providing updates for older smartphones. At the same time, you can run Linux on older computers easily.
