Automatix: Good News for Ubuntu Breezy Users

Wow....But why not for drapper....

Cos dapper drake's final release still isn't officially available. So, I guess it won't be yet available there.

hey cool great news this one is

thanks for the link man......... the command line is time consuming

We should recommend it to newbies will make installation of essential softwares a snap for them.

Ahh.. Even with synaptic installing softwares is a snap.. Even ubuntu is gonna get bloated

i'm despo waiting to get back to bangalore..haf BB connection there!

There's a problem here. How do you know which programs have completed installation. You can keep on reinstalling the same versions of applications without knowing that they have been installed as there's no sign of what is installed and what isn't. It still needs some work.

As long as its available after the final release...

Well that's fine but what about someone who's new to linux. This will be more helpful to them and not to someone who's used to linux. I can very well do with apt-get and when needed synaptic. But, it would be good if in the future version they can show the chnges there itself. Also, it fails to install mplayer. I had to use apt-get to do it. So, still some changes are needed to it.
