Ubuntu MATE mentions (43)

• best Distro for Noob

  When I started out, I used red hat, Suse linux, and then finally I jumped to Ubuntu, when they killed gnome and rolled out their new GUI later, I switched to Ubuntu Mate, with xfce alternatively installed. And then later came MINT. Which is based on ubuntu anyway. Source: 5 months ago

• New monitor and VGA cable smudges/ghosting

  Prepare a blank USB stick with a copy of Ubuntu (write the ISO to the USB stick with Rufus). Source: 5 months ago

• Reviving an old machine for gaming

  Ubuntu MATE (simple, well maintained, has the Ubuntu ecosystem support and should work well). Source: 11 months ago

• Who needs Ubuntu when you have MATE

  Linux Mint has its advantages, but your title doesn't make sense when there's Ubuntu MATE. Source: 12 months ago

• Fail To Download on Old Windows Vista PC

  (btw: since the PC is older I would reccommend Ubuntu Mate or Xubuntu as those come with a lighter Desktop). Source: about 1 year ago

• A Modern Operating System in 1.44MBs

  Here's the link to the OS the YouTube video is talking about... http://kolibrios.org/en/ It's been around for a very long time and is actually a fork of MenuetOS... http://menuetos.net Both are very impressive feats of assembly language engineering. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• MenuetOS: An entire operating system in x86_64 assembly

  Mandatory mention to KolibriOS[0], an open-source fork of MenuetOS. 0. http://kolibrios.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• MenuetOS

  > KolibriOS has forked off from MenuetOS in 2004, and is run under independent development since then. All our code is open-source, with the majority of the code released under GPLv2 license. https://kolibrios.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• How can a browser (Firefox, Brave, Chrome, whatever) use 10+ gigabyte RAM???

  Abundance of resources in average machine is making people quite lazy. Just to shock people I tell them to take a look at KolibriOS. Whole OS, with drivers, sound, graphics, software, compiler, debugger and games fits on CD image 39MB. Smallest bootable system is 1.3MB. My phone makes photos that are bigger than that.

• TinyLLama – A Tiny x86 Retrocomputer

  Again, >I'd like to have a grasp of what sort of compatibility this relatively unknown cpu has. I do not plan to run Linux on this. But I might want to run MenuetOS[0], KolibriOS[1], Aros[2], ZealOS[3], to give you some examples. 0. https://www.menuetos.net/ 1. https://kolibrios.org/en/ 2. https://aros.sourceforge.io/ 3. https://zealos.net/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
