This release adds the following:
- A new Bathory usplash
- Xubuntu support

Hi,
for ubuntu and xubuntu all seems to go well,
instead for kubuntu kdm and ksplash themes don’t work, becouse in the kde configuration section there is the configuration for kde3 and not for kde4

“…for kubuntu kdm and ksplash themes don’t work, becouse in the kde configuration section there is the configuration for kde3 and not for kde4″
This is good news! Considering the sorry state of KDE 4.1, I wouldn’t expect much of anything to work on it. Luckily a KDE 3.5 repository has been created for Ibex http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/ and since the SE stuff is set up for 3.5, it ought to be workable. However, the configuration directory is now ~.kde3, which may pose a problem. Perhaps, if Ubuntu is installed w/out kde 4, a link to the new ~.kde3 directory would do the trick? On the other hand, this could cause other problems, as other packages will expect ~.kde to be kde 4’s configuration directory. I’d like to get going with an install soon, so any feedback would be much appreciated.
Cheers!

Sorry, I’ve been so busy concentrating on getting the new Gnome and usplash stuff working, I didn’t realise that it’s all broken for KDE. I’ll try to fix it as soon as.

Is there anything I can do to help? I’ll be installing Kubuntu 8.10 from the dvd, then upgrading to KDE 3.5.10, from the repository I mentioned above. The 3.5 stuff should be relatively simple, as the only difference I know of, is the config directory, … and most importantly, KDE 3.5.10 actually works. The KDE 4.1 stuff that comes with 8.10 should be much harder, as it’s a whole new system–which is a buggy beta. Trying to support it would be a wast of time at this point. We should ship KDE 3.5 with Kubuntu SE, and hold off on 4.x until it works. Note that the official KDE website says the same thing, 4.1 is for early adopters–not daily use.
Please let me know what I can do to help.
Cheers

Is there Russian language support in Ubuntu Satanic Edition Version 666.5?
December 18th, 2008 at 8:47 am
Yes, because it installs onto standard Ubuntu, which has Russian language support.

Hi, I’m a new user to Linux, migrating because Windows Vista sucks a big one. I found this site through forums. I’m Catholic, but I think SE should be reviewed by DistroWatch. After all, Ubuntu Christian is there. Seems the OpenSource community seems to be a little closed about religion, or at least a little too sensitive about the matter. You should raise a ruckus in the Linux forums, maybe the internets can help.

Hi. I’ve got 666.4 in both 32- and 64-bit, and the ISOs have been checked OK with the MD5s, but the 32-bit version (once burned) keeps coming up with the same 5 files that fail the check (the 64-bit version is fine). Since I’ve now burned a few copies, I have to assume the MD5s are incorrect for the following:
./casper/filesystem.manifest: FAILED
./casper/filesystem.manifest-desktop: FAILED
./casper/initrd.gz: FAILED
./casper/filesystem.squashfs: FAILED
./README.diskdefines: FAILED
If you change/update any files in future versions, please be sure to generate a new md5sum.txt for the disc contents before releasing the ISOs. Cheers.

That was a test. You have failed.
February 1st, 2009 at 8:09 am
Not sure what you mean there… can you explain? Just recapping that the ISO itself checks out fine, and I am not getting errors burning the 64-bit one (or any other distro), but repeated burning of the 32-bit one keeps giving me the same 5 errors. Exactly the same thing when I just mount the ISO and do a check that way (so obviously isn’t a faulty burning issue). Cheers.

Hi Alex,
Sorry, I posted that when very drunk. Note to self: “don’t post stupid comments on this site when drunk”. OK, as for your problem, I’ve not heard of anyone else having this issue. Maybe the ISO you downloaded is corrupt. That may explain why the MD5sums don’t check out also. Try the following command:
cksum ubuntusatanic-666.4-i386.iso
You should get:
2954075067 719921152 ubuntusatanic-666.4-i386.iso
Hope this helps,
Garry.

Hiya. I checked both ISOs with the checksums provided on your site:
40f9e8d676df5f7d83fe27d29a1b8682 ubuntusatanic-666.4-amd64.iso
5a322ca977b06f1c2bb81a1b7dbd13ad ubuntusatanic-666.4-i386.iso
… so seems you changed this at some point? I’ve just confirmed these are still the checksums available at http://ubuntusatanic.org/iso/md5sum-666.4, so looks like something needs updating. If you reworked the ISO, then it is just the checksum on your site. If you didn’t, I would mount the ISO and check all files against the md5sum.txt file on the “disc”.
As I said, the ISO itself checks out fine with the md5 above… just a check of all files when mounted or burned reveals the 5 errors.
The Live CD seems to run fine anyway, but I haven’t tried an install since I don’t want it to fail.
February 4th, 2009 at 7:04 am
I’ve checked and I get the same issue with the i386 CD. It must have been a mistake with the build process for that ISO. Strange that you’re the only one to spot this! That image has been used may times in the past, so you should be safe to install from it if you wish.
Sorry about any trouble it’s caused.

ubuntu SE is the mosr briliant idea that I`ve been known until now…
Now I use Ubuntu hardy LTS and install The Satanic Themes on my desktop..
But for now I think about another idea that still on Darkness and Heavy Metal world, I call it Ubuntu Heavy Metal edition,,,
I was built some wallpapers and GDM Themes about Heavy Metal themes, such as Metallica, Megadeth, and the others…
I just want to say thanks and I feel so gratefull to The Builder of The Ubuntu SE, and I really-really hope that somebody to help me build another (new) edition of Ubuntu : Ubuntu Heavy Metal Edition.
Hell jeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
February 9th, 2009 at 10:14 am
Maybe we can discuss and re-build new concept about Satanic, Darkness and Heavy Metal..
Darkness and heavy metal are my fundamental piloshopy of my life…
I really2 disappointed to Distrowatch for didn`t put Ubuntu SE on their database, so I think about another concept that more ‘progressive’ and acceptible, but still has the soul of Darkness and Heavy Metal..
Sincerely…
Jeahhh!!!!!!1

Firefox 3 still has problems using the inhuman theme. After months of work I created a fix. I posted my fix in the help forum of this website.
Garry you owe me!
