Re: Linux News
I'm guessing Canonical is footing part of the bill? And you won't quite know what you're getting (it's a surprise). You're guaranteed at a minimum of specs, but could get better specs based on the pieces they have available at the time. It's a really cool idea.Dr_Chroot wrote:$89, Green Ubuntu Desktop PC.

Re: Linux News
those who are anxious to try XFCE4 in version 4.12: get them from experimental
apt-get -t experimental xfwm4 xfdesktop4 xfce4-panel xfce4-indicator-plugin
should install the necessary parts (no goodies!). Careful, xfce4-mixer and the weather applet will not be installed as they are not updated yet.
