It is a breeze to install the Ubuntu 'Breezy badger', and all the problems I had using Debian disappeared, almost :p. As mentioned in an earlier post, 'it might have been the same, did I just install the new kernel 2.6' but I wanted to try Ubuntu.
The problem I have now is : keyboard layout!
As some might have discovered already(by reading), English is not my native language, Danish is. Therefore I need a DK layout, and that's not a tedious affair with Ubuntu either. Even though I choose DK layout, it doesn't give me the keys.
The good part is:
- USB works, attaching my external hdd, gives me a mounted drive automatically.
- I can see all my partitions, and mount them.
- Playing movies work, not too good, but it works.
- Sound is playing well.
- MainActor video editing works, I had to do some tweaking here, installing old GNU C++ compiler libraries.
- CD/DVD burning works well.
- Graphics card(NVidia GeForce II) worked perfectly
The bad part is:
- OpenOffice 2, works but has some problems with M$ Office documents and images
- KDE window manager not preinstalled
