Ubuntu Satanic Edition

Ubuntu Satanic Edition 666.6 (Jesus’ Jugular)

Ubuntu Satanic Edition isn’t just an operating system, it’s the new order. Obsequious and arrogant, clandestine and vain. Unleash its might onto your computer by dressing in the still warm skin of a Stag, letting the blood run over your naked flesh and onto your keyboard as you type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-satanic. Marvel as the darkness penetrates your screen and buries itself in the depths of your soul. Let your ears bleed and your head frenzy. Play the sycophant. Revel in your pain. Let all other software bow down. It is your destiny.

Ubuntu Satanic Edition has once again awoken from its slumber and spread its wings to cast a dark and foreboding shadow over your desktop. Version 666.5, Inverted Ibex, is now available for installation from our repositories.

This release adds the following:

• A new Bathory usplash
• Xubuntu support
• Version 1.4 of the Aurora theme engine
• Updated Inhuman Gnome themes
• Brighter (readable) text on all of the usplash themes

The Severed Fifth project is exactly the kind of thing Ubuntu Satanic Edition is about. A heavy metal music project with the aim of exploring “what is possible when an independent artist releases their work in the new music economy”. Their first album, Denied By Reign, is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike license and available for download now.

The project fuses neck-wrenching music with solid principles. We support and applaud everything they stand for. Check it out:

Ever wondered why Ubuntu Satanic Edition is not on Distrowatch, the popular guide to the world of Linux? We contacted Ladislav Bodnar, the maintainer of the site, and this was his reply:

There is no way I am going to add this distro to DistroWatch. Two reasons:

Regards,
Ladislav”

When we’d got up off the floor, we send the following response:

“Woah!

I thought Distrowatch was supost to be a list of Linux distributions. Surely it your purpose is to reflect the world of Linux and not dictate it.”

So, it seems you won’t be seeing your favourite distro on “distro”watch. At least until hell freezes over.

The best software…
The heaviest music…

The Distro of the Beast.

If you run Ubuntu Satanic, we’d like to see it. Send us your screenshots and we’ll put them on a new page dedicated to showing the world how dark a desktop can look.

In fact, we’d like to see any pictures of you running SE – photos of your laptop, photos of you, photos of you sacrificing a lamb and letting the blood drip across your keyboard. Anything.

Send your images to Garry or post a link in the comments section.

Ubuntu Satanic Edition 666.4, Headless Horseman, is now available.

This major release contains 7 new wallpapers, 2 new usplash themes, new GDM and KDM login themes and new animations for the Eternal Damnation screensaver.

The release includes exclusive Ubuntu Skulls artwork and photography featuring Riven.

Packages for Ubuntu Hardy, Gutsy, Feisty and Edgy can be installed from our secure APT repository:

Ubuntu Satanic is now hosted on its own dedicated Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 server. We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused while we were running on the old platform and during the transition period. From now on the site should fly along and downloads should be more reliable.

If you spot any problems or have performance issues with the site or APT repository then please let us know so that we can resolve them as quickly as possible.

Now that the server move is complete we can get on with the important stuff – the next release of Ubuntu SE, “Headless Horseman”, should be available next week.

We were informed yesterday by our hosting provider that this site will be suspended in 5 days due to heavy traffic. This seems to be due to downloads generated by people upgrading to Hardy, which is surprising because not only is Hardy still in beta, the Ubuntu Satanic updates for Hardy aren’t even available yet.

We are in the process of organising a move to a dedicated Ubuntu server to host this site and the package repository. Hopefully this should be completed in the next couple of days. Until then, we have been moved to a “probation” server on our current host, so you may experience problems such as slow downloads.

Hopefully we can get this resolved as soon as possible and come back stronger than ever.

PS: the next release of Ubuntu Satanic Edition, Headless Horseman, will be released as soon as we’ve got the above problems sorted out.
