What do you mean when you say vinux only has a few poultry applications? If you mean at install time, the DVD version will have more applications installed than the CD version. Otherwise, you can use the Software Center to pretty much install anything you want, the same applications you can install on Ubuntu in fact.

Remember too that Vinux uses Unity, so if you're just looking at the Launcher, you're only seeing a dozen of the most commonly used applications on your system. You can use the Dash to get to the other applications installed on your system and even install more applications. Use alt+f2 to bring up the Dash. The vinux wiki has articles on how to use the Dash and get around the Unity desktop in general.

Hello everyone.

I have a real show stopper here. I can't seem to get orca to start up from the 
installer dvd. I tried control-s right at boot and nothing. the documentation 
doesn't seem to suggest any other way to do this.

is there another way?

I really would like to have an operational linux machine here.

I have tried Vinux, but there isn't a lot of available software other than a 
few paltry apps and the gnome desktop.

I need this working.

HELP!

eric
