Order free Kubuntu 9.04 CD


What is Kubuntu?

Kubuntu is a free, user-friendly operating system based on the K Desktop Environment and on the award winning Ubuntu operating system.

Similarly to ubuntu , is kubuntu <9.04> with a little bit of difference in operations
You can get ubuntu easily
Earlier all versions of linux were shipped freely all over globe but due to huge orders they had stopped shipping free ,all except Ubuntu , but now again they have started free distribution of CD'z for Kubuntu
Follow these steps :
Go to http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu
There you will see two options :
  1. Buy on CD or DVD - Buy a CD or DVD with Ubuntu, Edubuntu or Kubuntu, or a large number of CDs from a distributor near you. If you are in North America you can get Ubuntu and Kubuntu on DVD from Amazon.com.
  2. Request a free CD- Request a free Ubuntu, Edubuntu or Kubuntu CD from Canonical Delivery typically takes 6-10 weeks.Use each CD as many times as you like - you are free to use it on as many computers as you wish and to pass on to others

Choose any option , i preferred 2nd one ,and follow instruction of getting KUBUNTU , same as that of getting UBUNTU , see this link http://qwertyweb.blogspot.com/2009/07/order-free-cd-of-ubuntu-904-no-shipping.html

how to remove ubuntu user login window at startup

If you are are the sole user of your computer and are annoyed by the Ubuntu login window during every startup,
it is better to remove it.
Removing the login window will not actually remove the login password, but it will just skip the step during system startup.
1st of go to
System > Administration > Login Window.
otherwise just press Alt + F2 and type gksu /usr/sbin/gdmsetup
Run Application box.

This will open the login screen preferences window.

THUS to enable auto log in,

go to security tab ,

check Enable Automatic Login and enter user name for your system.

delay in auto login can also be set by setting Enable Timed Login and selecting time in seconds. By enabling it, your system will wait for specified number of second before logging you.

Click Close and reboot your system. Now you won’t see the login windows anymore and won’t need to type the password during every startup. . thats it !
