The Ubuntu project is entirely committed to the principles of free software development; people are encouraged to use free software, improve it, and pass it on.

Ubuntu verkefnið er alfarið fylgjandi hugmyndafræði frjálsrar hugbúnaðarþróunar; notendur eru hvattir til að nota frjálsan hugbúnað, bæta hann og dreifa honum.

"Free software" doesn't mean that you shouldn't have to pay for it (although Ubuntu is committed to being free of charge as well). It means that you should be able to use the software in any way you wish: the code that makes up free software is available for anyone to download, change, fix, and use in any way. Alongside ideological benefits, this freedom also has technical advantages: when programs are developed, the hard work of others can be used and built upon. With non-free software, this cannot happen and when programs are developed, they have to start from scratch. For this reason the development of free software is fast, efficient and exciting!

"Frjáls hugbúnaður" þýðir ekki að þú ættir ekki að þurfa að borga fyrir hann (þótt Ubuntu sé ætlað til þess að vera einnig ókeypis). Þetta þýðir fyrst og framst að þú eigir að vera frjáls við að nota hugbúnaðinn eins og þér sýnist: allir geta náð í kóðann sem frjáls hugbúnaður er gerður úr, þú getur breytt honum, lagað og notað á hvern þann hátt sem þér dettur í hug. Auk þess að vera hugmyndafræðileg afstaða, þá hefur þetta frelsi ákveðna tæknilega kosti: við þróun forrita er hægt að taka það sem aðrir hafa lagt hart að sér við að hanna, það má aðlaga það og byggja ofan á það sem áður hefur verið gert. Þetta er ekki hægt að gera við þróun ófrjáls hugbúnaðar; yfirleitt þarf að byrja frá grunni þegar slík forrit eru þróuð. Af þessum sökum er þróun frjáls hugbúnaðar mjög hröð, öflug og spennandi!

There are many different operating systems based on Linux: Debian, SuSE, Gentoo, Red Hat, and Mandriva are examples. Ubuntu is yet another contender in what is already a highly competitive world. So what makes Ubuntu different?
|
|
|
|
|
Það eru mörg stýrikerfi byggð á Linux, t.d Debian, SuSE, Gentoo, Red Hat og Mandriva. Ubuntu lifir í mikilli samkeppni við aðrar útgáfur. En hvað er það sem gerir Ubuntu sérstakt?

<ulink url="http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/debian"> Based on Debian</ulink>, one of the most widely acclaimed, technologically advanced, and well-supported distributions, Ubuntu aims to create a distribution that provides an up-to-date and coherent Linux system for desktop and server computing. Ubuntu includes a number of carefully selected packages from the Debian distribution and retains its powerful package management system which allows easy installation and clean removal of programs. Unlike most distributions that ship with a large amount of software that may or may not be of use, Ubuntu's list of packages is reduced to a number of important applications of high quality.

By focusing on quality, Ubuntu produces a robust and feature-rich computing environment that is suitable for use in both home and commercial environments. The project takes the time required to focus on finer details and is able to release a version featuring the latest and greatest of today's software once every 6 months. Ubuntu is available in 32-bit and 64-bit flavors, and will run on most modern computers. It is also available for the Sun UltraSPARC and Amazon EC2 architectures.

The desktop is what you see after you log in to your computer and what you use to manage and run applications. The default desktop environment for Ubuntu is <ulink url="http://www.gnome.org/">GNOME</ulink>, a leading UNIX and Linux desktop suite and development platform.
|
|
|
|
|
Skjáborðið er sá hluti sem að þú sér þegar þú skráir þig inn í tölvuna og notar til þess að stjórna forritum. Sjálfgefna skjáborðsumhverfið fyrir Ubuntu er <ulink url="http://www.gnome.org/">GNOME</ulink>, sem er leiðandi UNIX og Linux skjáumhverfi.

You can optionally install the <ulink url="http://www.kde.org/">KDE</ulink> and <ulink url="http://www.xfce.org/">Xfce</ulink> desktop environments, which have their own distinctive look and feel. KDE and Xfce are made available in Ubuntu by the <ulink url="http://www.kubuntu.org">Kubuntu</ulink> and <ulink url="http://www.xubuntu.org">Xubuntu</ulink> projects respectively. You can even install a KDE-only or Xfce-only version of Ubuntu if you wish.

|

Þú getur valið að setja upp <ulink url="http://www.kde.org/">KDE</ulink> og <ulink url="http://www.xfce.org/">Xfce</ulink> skjáborðsumhverfin, sem hafa sín eigin sérstöku útlit og sérstaka tilfinningu. KDE og Xfce eru tiltæk í Ubuntu í gegnum <ulink url="http://www.kubuntu.org">Kubuntu</ulink> og <ulink url="http://www.xubuntu.org">Xubuntu</ulink> verkefnin hvort um sig. Þú getur jafnvel sett upp eingöngu KDE eða eingöngu Xfce útgáfur af Ubuntu ef þú vilt.
