It has changed but by how much, I can't really say. All I know is that Ubuntu has dominated the Linux world.
Check out this article at TuxRadar: http://tuxradar.com/content/tuxradar...20-rise-karmic Also, take a look at this graph that shows the percentage of Ubuntu users out of all other Linux distro users at TuxRadar: ![]() Now that is one cool graph. |

Yes, the graph does show that most users adopt the new version of Ubuntu almost immediately. What I find amusing is that some users have been using a version of Ubuntu months before it is officially released! Just look at 9.10. What I don't really understand are the two graphs for Fedora and Mandriva and PCLinuxOS, it isn't really a smooth curve but one with lots of spikes. |
