What About Photoshop?

Tue, 29 Apr 2008 06:17:21 +0200

I am considering installing Ubuntu, but being a graphic designer, was wondering about being able to run programs such as Photoshop, Quark, Indesign and/or Coreldraw. How do these programs operate on this OS, or do they operate at all with Ubuntu? If someone is running these programs, please let me know if you are having probs or if they run the same as windows.

Hardy upgrade and KDE4

Wed, 26 Mar 2008 01:40:55 +0100

The wiki(s) are unclear as to what is going to happen when the distribution release of Hardy comes out at the end of April. I'm using KDE4-CE with 7.10. Will the Hardy release use KDE4, or will they stay with 3.5.9? In other words, will the upgrade to Hardy wipe out KDE4, and replace it with 3.5.9? TIA!!

Running Second Life On Ubuntu

Wed, 03 Oct 2007 17:25:17 +0200

Hello, I am planing on becoming a new ubuntu user in the near future. I am also planing on using second life on ubuntu. I am planing on buying a used hp notebook that has an ati mobile radeon graphics card installed. However on second life's website they state that minimmum system requirements recommend that you need a radeon 8600 or 9650 fo best performance. My question is, is their a way that you can run second life with a mobile radeon card or should I buy one with an 8600 or 9650 card. Thanks for your input.Ubutu_600

I love Ubuntu

Thu, 01 Mar 2007 15:39:00 +0100

I don't feel like turning back either. (to M$)I love it because:

Wine allows me to play windows apps anyway
Wireless Keyboard battery indicator
Easy to install alot of different packages
It's the only operating system I can *legally* install. (I dont bother messing with buying windows xp)
Live CD/Install combo- I liked being able to use the operating system before it even started installing!
Has software I been using anyway: I always have been using FOSS software on Windows anyway (Firefox, Gaim, Gimp, Open Office.. etc)
My parents are happy with it
Easy ubuntu made it easy to install support for apple and m$ formats as well as flash and java.
Bash is very amazing at what It can do!
