What Linux distribution is suitable for netbooks?
Just as you have to choose a version from a dazzling variety of gardens and perfection when installing Windows, if you have decided to try a Linux, what you should do is to choose one of the various distributions of Linux to install. Next, I recommend several common Linux system distributions for the rookie who is eager to fly. Maybe I can't cover all the versions, but these are all my own experiences, and I guarantee the authenticity. Interested children's shoes can choose one or more according to their own situation to try. These versions of self-starting installation images can be downloaded free of charge from their respective websites. Let's start now. Ubuntu: The loyal choice of most users Compared with many Linux versions, Ubuntu can only be regarded as a new generation of kids in the Linux family, but as the saying goes, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves before, which has changed a lot compared with the previous versions. Mark Shuttleworth, the founder of Ubuntu, is a rich and passionate South African entrepreneur. He created and popularized this Ubuntu with the slogan of human Linux. Various Linux systems in the market have their own characteristics, or they are rich in resources, simple to use, or powerful in specific functions. Ubuntu's positioning is: easy-to-use design. At present, Ubuntu is developing rapidly with the support of a huge Linux enthusiast community. Because of the extensive support and concern of the community, it is suggested that novices choose Ubuntu system to embark on the journey of Linux. Thanks to many developers and users, you will get 100% hardware support, and you can easily search for what you want to learn or the settings you want to change. Ubuntu also has many variants to choose from. Their kernels are basically the same, but their desktop environments are different. If you are interested in children's shoes, you can also try Kubuntu in KDE desktop environment, Xubuntu in XFCE desktop environment suitable for low-profile computers such as netbooks, and many other ubuntu derivative versions to choose from. Linux Mint: relatively easy for beginners to use. Compared with Ubuntu, Linux Mint lacks some core software and design inspiration. But it is more similar to Windows, MAC and other operating systems, so it can be used conveniently by fans who jump from other systems. The goal of Linux Mint is to provide a more complete ready-to-use experience, so it integrates all the normal functions of the operating system by default, such as MP3, DVD, Flash and so on. Moreover, its menu setting is more like the start menu of Windows, which makes people feel more friendly. In addition, there are many smart options for novices in the system. Jeff Hoogland, a blogger, has also given several reasons in his blog that Mint is more suitable for beginners than Ubuntu, and his views are very convincing (please click for details). Fedora: a reliable choice Fedora is a personal desktop branch of Red Hat enterprise Linux, and a powerful operating system launched by Fedora development team, which is updated regularly. Fedora integrates the most advanced technology of Linux and can support a wide range of hardware, including processors with PowerPC architecture. The use of Fedora and Ubuntu is not completely different, but an important difference is the software package installer (used to quickly obtain and install applications from the distribution system server). Generally speaking, I personally think that Fedora is a very good choice. Arch Linux: When installing Arch Linux from scratch, you'd better not take a lunch break, because you have to calm down and study hard to complete the whole installation. This installation process is an excellent opportunity to learn Linux system. By configuring system settings and optimizing system performance, you can have a deeper understanding of Linux. Please have a look. The above are several Linux distributions introduced to you today, although some popular versions, such as openSUSE, Debian and Sabayon, are not introduced. But this is not intended to belittle and ignore, just because I don't have much relevant experience. If any experts think that a certain version is very suitable for beginners, or they have benefited from it, you are very welcome to leave a message and share it with the fans. Source:
