ubuntu is trying to not be 'just another linux'. sadly they are using a lot of lock-in tactics similar to Sony since the 80's or apple more recently. that said, they are the distro with the best live-usb installer by far.

The debs work fine under debian/sid and most deb packages work fine between debian and ubuntu and the places where they don't are by some evil design. yeesh

  Did you get the Steam ones to work? At least the betas were hopeless because they're linked to glibc 2.15 or something, whereas Debian uses the forked eglibc 2.13.

    They don't work, its the same situation as the beta.

Hey, Arch takes like, 5 minutes! You just do the exact same process (format -> bootstrap -> locales -> users). Whats that about not knowing how to use visudo?
