I agree,I've not personally played around with Orca and the Linux GUI before, but this is quite nice. Anytime I have used Linux I normally just putty in to write some shell scripts.
The Live CD works a treat, having been burnt using Macs internal Burner and in Windows Nero v7. Make sure to burn the ISO as this already has the flag set to make the disc bootable.
You would probably do wise to read the readme and bits of th emanual. I hit return a few times when the disc was loading in Windows, before I got speech. Probably confirmation screens, loading drivers and such.

Hi,Just so you all know, Vibuntu is great, and a great version of Linux to get you started.So, a name change, huh? That happened quickly, I checked it a few weeks back and it was still known as Vibuntu.James Scholes http://www.jls-radio.com -----Original Message----- Sent by Chris Hallsworth on Wednesday, February 11, 2009 at 11:26 AM Hi why was the name changed?
