This month's DVD

Gnome Ubuntu Remix 12.10 and Linux Mint 13 KDE

Article from Issue 146/2013

Canonical’s persistent efforts to perfect the new age Unity desktop for Ubuntu Linux has gotten them in trouble with lots of long-term users, but the Ubuntu project is always quick to point out to the critics: “This is Linux. If you don’t like the desktop, change it!”

As it turns out, the Ubuntu project actually builds its own Gnome-based Ubuntu, and we are bringing it to our readers with this month’s DVD. Gnome Ubuntu Remix 12.10 is a full version of the latest 12.10 “Quantal Quetzal” Ubuntu release that boots to a default Gnome 3.6 desktop.
