- Why open a command line...
-
The first thing you did on the command line...install MS fonts...could have been done in the Add/Remove software tool. Its funny how people skip the GUI's that the claim to love so much and run to the command line only to complain.
My suggestion to the poster. Go ahead and load up Ubuntu. You'll get the benefit of new OS features instead of waiting around on an OS that is scheduled to die. And if you want to use a VM for non server use go with VirtualBox. You can install it right from your Add/Remove GUI or from the Sun website and have your guests up and running in minutes.
Ignore the "scary command line" buffoonery. These people boot up...open a browser...do searches and start trying stuff right off the bat when just a few clicks in the three menus up at the top of your Gnome install often get you what you want with no command line. Why they take the long route I don't know. - Posted by: storm14k Posted on: 08/08/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
