Sebastian on Mageia and the GNU/Linux Desktop - Part 8
Channel: schestowitz
Date: 24/09/2011

LAST night's show covers GNU/Linux on the desktop with focus on Mageia. Sebastian joins us from the IRC channels, where he is a regular contributor. 

We talk about what Mageia is, its relationship to Mandriva, Sebastian's experiment moving from Ubuntu to Mageia, and then we play "Klezmer" by La Santa Cecilia. We talk about moving to/from GNOME 3 and Unity, noting Roy's prior experience with Mandriva. "The Way It Is" by Kristyna Myles is then played and later begins a discussion about Mageia's GUI and installer, the 1-year anniversary, and Identi.ca group (including something about polls). "Impossibly Beautiful" by Julie Feeney is played and then comes a long discussion about PCLinuxOS, Mandrake, Gaël Duval (and Ulteo), UnityLinux, etc. "I am" by Jones Family Singers closes this long show.
