Mac Mini Ubuntu

[maboroshi]

Was able to set up Ubuntu on My Mac Mini and replace that terrible Apple OS... I don't see how any one could use the Mac OS. No Ctrl/Cmd X/Cut for files I don't get why anyone would use it... I could not find any information saying apple software ran faster cause the OS was designed for the hardware - So not sure where people are getting that info.

Regardless I was finally able to set up a linux distro (Ubuntu) after the second attempt (first attempt was a different day)

A note for myself

Code: Select all

modprobe ts3

I heard that too a couple of times already, and I always had to laugh because it's a plain silly argument...every software is designed for the hardware it is supposed to run on, else it simply wouldn't work. PC hardware simply offers a wider compatibility, and that's the reason why Linux installs (for example) cause more problems on Apple hardware....so what they are trying to do is selling more restrictions as a good thing.

I agree bad_brain.

Anyway from what I have seen a mac mini makes a decent Linux server, I suppose because of it's compact size it sits well in a Server farm.
