The "X" in Xubuntu stands for the Xfce graphical desktop environment, but the word, "ubuntu," represents both the technical and philosophical core of the operating system. Ubuntu is a South African ethical ideology focusing on people's allegiances and relations with each other. The word comes from the Zulu and Xhosa languages. Ubuntu (pronounced "oo-boon-too") is seen as a traditional African concept, is regarded as one of the founding principles of the new republic of South Africa and is connected to the idea of an African Renaissance.

A rough translation of the principle of ubuntu is "humanity towards others". Another translation could be: "the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity".

"A person with ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed."

„Einstaklingur með ubuntu er opinn, viðmótsþýður og jákvæður gagnvart öðrum. Honum finnst sér ekki ógnað þó aðrir séu dugandi og góðir þar sem hann hefur raunverulegt sjálfstraust sprottið af vissunni fyrir því að hann sé hluti af stærra samhengi. Honum þykir hann lítillækkaður þegar aðrir eru auðmýktir eða lítillækkaðir, þegar aðrir eru píndir eða kúgaðir.‟

"Free software" doesn't mean that you should not have to pay for it (although Xubuntu 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!
