what programs you need from Ubuntu? can't install them in debian? debian would be more secure just on updates alone you get them sooner then later. Loved trisquel with the minimal flashback desktop, and fsf kernel. , was building my own with grsec. but for the same reason they based on debian then based on ubuntu you get updates double late. 1 to 30 days later man. 1 day later ok, but I wouldn't be using it for anything sensitive. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
