Linux needs to evolve - now!
It is a brilliant idea to create an operating system that is free for everyone to use and to edit. Thousands of hackers around the globe share the dream of open source information technology without monopolism. Everybody who is into computing has heard of Linux and lots of them are using it for daily work. Even unexperienced users try out Linux by testing distributions like Ubuntu, openSuse or Knoppix because they are easy to use and to install. But that’s not the complete truth. Those so called “out-of-the-box” experience can instead be very tricky and much to complicated for a normal user.
When you insert the Ubuntu LiveCD you are welcomed by a smart boot menu that lets you try out all the functionalities of a full-fledged Distribution without installing. The window manager has a fresh looking, clean-looking aqua-style interface. You click on install end almost everything is pre-configured and runs automatically. In most cases Ubuntu auto-detects your hardware and installs the right modules. Hopefully.
