funfact it is actually using a full linux kernel and atleast a few years back on you could run a full chroot shell of kali or on some devices you could even dualboot via kexec. I did the dualboot thing on my nook color back in the day.

[@Sparkfist]

Finally someone went to the trouble I would never put myself through. Especially when the distro is 10+ years out of date.

[@efficiencygaming3494]

This episode is the greatest thing I've seen all day! This was just too funny. I was never into Hannah Montana myself but I knew a girl in the mid-2000s who was all about it and she would've loved this. Did they ever make a SpongeBob Linux distro? That would've been my dream come true as a kid.

[@LegoWormNoah101]

There was going to he Spongebuntu, but that one scrapped

[@newecreator]

It would be cool if someone made an up-to-date version of this distro.

[@JeffreyPiatt]

I wonder if there is a web wizard to custom reskin Ubuntu to bespoke distros.

[@newecreator]

With KDE you could remake anything style wise (for the most part). Oh it is based on Kubuntu so this is literally themed with KDE :)

Reminds me of the RebeccaBlackOS, which was one of the first Linux Distribution that was running an Wayland environment by default.

[@GumSkyloard]

Thank you for submitting yourself to this, Ken!

My pleasure 😈

The VMware tools installation error actually told you how to get a compatible version... And also the VBox guest additions installer told you what parts are broken there too :D

[@philtkaswahl2124]

It amuses me how many of these obscure Linux distros are essentially just shitposts in OS form.

[@aukondk]

I thought HM Linux was for testing Wayland but that is apparently Rebecca Black Linux. If nothing else HM Linux demonstrates how customisable Linux is, even 10 years ago. I remember building a custom distro for the college I work at. New splash screen, icons, persistent guest session all from simple scripts.

[@sterlingphoenix]

I never liked the Tux logo. When it came out everyone was going "Look how 3Dand FUTURISTIC it is!!!! BEHOLD THE POWER OF LINUX!!!" but it looked cheesy even then.

In terms of desktop gaming, Linux has a market share of 1.28% (Ubuntu, Arch, Manjaro as the top-three) when compared to 2.23% for macOS and 96.50% for Windows.

[@MrMontanaNights]

Setting: 2010. A brightly-lit home office. A mid-30s Dad sits at his desk, typing into the terminal window of his Ubuntu-based computer. "Hmmm, I wonder how I can get my 11 year old daughter interested in Linux- the best OS of course". Pan up, Dad looks up- faintly playing in the background, coming from the living room "IT'S the Beeeeeest of Both Wooorlds...." "AH HA!!" Dad exclaims joyfully. "I got JUST the thing!".

[@danielleanderson6371]

I do have to wonder what the overlap is between Hannah Montana fans and Linux users in 2009. You'd have to be a very specific type of preteen girl with a very specific type of parent, or a very, *very* specific type of teen girl, or a very, *very, VERY* specific type of adult to be able to enjoy this sort of thing. This had to have been the passion project of one of those very specific types of parents of the very specific type of preteen daughter, which makes this weirdly... wholesome?

[@nautiluuu]

the os looks like a powerpoint presentation

[@citywitt3202]

Oh thanks for saying macOS is getting like vista. Ventura was the most buggy upgrade I’ve ever had and right now it’s reminding me a lot of vistas downfall, first time I’ve ever downgraded.

[@Anoldergamer1971]

Excellent video as usual but one question is still unanswered... Why does this version of Linux existed?? Who did lost a bet and had to come up with this version? 😁

[@MrMontanaNights]

Perhaps it was to get young/teen girls interested in Linux and tech in general? Would make the most sense really. A dad was sitting at home wondering, "Now how can I get my 11 year old daughter interested in Linux and technology? I know, I'll make a Hannah Montana distro!".

[@jonlima9897]

He probably did it just for fun, maybe some people have creating new distros as a hobby, though in this case he was kind of out of ideas

A few days ago, I experimented with a Windows 10 VM that ran on top of Ubuntu Unity. I made a virtual machine, thinking I wouldn’t switch my host OS, and purchased Windows. That turned out to be a bad idea, as the VM was too large to be sent via a USB flash drive, and I had to delete the VM in order to make room for a full Ubuntu GNOME installation. I haven’t used Windows 11 since April, as it was on my school issued Dell laptop, and after working with it for a while, I haven’t touched it, as I sort of hate its interface.

All of your web browsing and downloading errors is from your date and time being wrong and not matching up with the servers and giving a security error(due to HTTPS). Don't doubt the ability of Ubuntu to keep files around. They do keep the servers up for even 13 year old OSes.

[@ComputerClan]

Ha. So if I changed the clock back it might've worked?

[@MrMega200]

@@ComputerClan No, not dialing it back to 2009 or whatever, it's a security certificate thing where the website checks your local machine for time and date so that you aren't a threat if I had to summarize it roughly. Having the wrong year, 5 months off, or even the wrong time zone compared to actual time could set it off. I've come across it a lot when Windows 10 machines are activated with a digital license and when time is wrong it ends up deactivating the machine until the date and time is fixed. Had that issue on the last gaming PC I built and left alone for months and it forgot the time(from weak CMOS battery). But especially with Linux it's a part of troubleshooting for when the updates and in general program downloads don't want to work. There is guides on the Ubuntu website to fix the downloads that you can follow but the Date and Time setting is the first one you should try.

[@pvman2]

@@MrMega200 If you are correct, I'd love to see an "update" video where he attemptes to implement your fix and upgrade to 14.04. That would be pretty cool, especially if the Hannah Montana look/feel remained. I may just do this myself. Do you think the data/time fix work fix the SIGSEGV on KDESudo?
