Kubuntu 9.04 on Virtual Box

Yesterdays post was all about Ubuntu 9.04 on Virtualbox. this post reffers to its brother, Kubuntu.

in essence its exactly the same, appart from that insted of using the Gnome interface it uses the KDE interface, which i seem to find more aesthetically pleasing.

the video below shows compiz fusion running on kubuntu inside a virtual machine


Will hopefully be showing Open solaris next week, showin some basic commands and such.

Ubuntu 9.04 In Virtual box

Ive been a fond user of ubuntu for a while new, probably since "Gutsy".

Ive recently upgraded it to 9.04 also known as "Jaunty" and i have to say there are a lot of significant upgrades. for one, its lightning quick even with effects switched on.

I did have trouble with effects, as i was using vmware fusion. but i heard news that virtual box was a lot faster and is also free, so i thought i may as well give it a go.

So after transferring the vmware machine to virtual box and installing the additions i could tell that it was significantly fast and that the desktop effects actually work.

Look out for the ubuntu installation video on Virtualbox.
