Re: [LUG] Lucid

 

John,
you asked what Mint does differently then Ubuntu that just installing
restricted-extras doesnt do:

Adds a white/blacklist content filter for those who want a basic net
nanny type thing
Isnt brown
Works with most laptop wirelesses out of the box where sometimes you
need a driver in the restricted-extras (or so I understand)
Its one less step in setting up a customer's box
Its laid out in a windows-like manner (eg single panel across the
bottom) so new users to linux find it usable from the start.
