Going Linux #351 · Review of Pinguy 18.04
Introduction
The Windows update prevents Bill's machine from booting into Linux, delays our recording
Guild Wars 2 on Linux
Pinguy review
Website looks nice but 'help' section needs a bit of updating
The developer is responsive
The 3.2GB ISO image is HUGE!
Some of the included software
Not for everyone
Pinguy relies on a lot of PPAs
OK for some
Desktop: A heavily modified Gnome with lots of extensions
Best Practice: Lean toward Standard vs. Custom functionality, customizations should add value
Slow, even on powerful hardware
Theme is not consistent
Needs a lot of polish
Could be more intuitive, discoverable
Bill's suggestions
Larry's suggestions
Pinguy needs more help
