Ubuntu Linux is "the most popular version of Linux in the world" - according to the good people at Ubuntu.com!

And there are lots of great reasons why Ubuntu Linux is so

incredibly popular.

There are currently over 130 different versions of Linux - and Ubuntu Linux is one of them.

Ubuntu Linux Training Tips: A version of Linux is also referred to as a Linux distribution, or distro for short. There are a lot of different software components that are put together to make up a distribution.

It's quite useful to learn some really basic information about what a Linux distribution is, so that you can better understand what makes Ubuntu Linux the best - and how to work with Ubuntu Linux - and to also know things like the difference between the Ubuntu and Kubuntu versions of Linux.

So, here's a brief overview of what a Linux distribution is and the main software components of Ubuntu Linux.

Linux Distributions - And The Main Ubuntu Linux Distribution Software Components

A Linux distribution, like Ubuntu Linux, is made up of several free and open source software components - and here's a brief overview of some of these main software components.

The Linux OS - the Core of Ubuntu Linux

The Linux operating system (OS) is the foundation, or core, of any version of Linux and all the other Linux software programs run on top of the Linux OS.

The GNU / Linux Commands - for Doing Some Ubuntu Linux Tasks

On rare occasion, you may need to run some Linux commands to do some things, like install some software to make your hardware work - and so there are some GNU commands on your Linux system that allow you to do this.

Ubuntu Linux Training Tips: If you purchased a computer system with Ubuntu Linux "pre-installed" on it, you may never need to run Linux commands to do things like set up your hardware components.

But they're there any way - just in case!
