Ubuntu Wiki

• Hi!

My name is Christian Nafallo Bjälevik, and yes that's my real name ;-). I've been using Linux since somewhere about 2000, starting with RedHat to learn the basics. After that I tried Slackware, Root, Leka, LFS, Gentoo, Debian and a couple of others. I got caught be Debian though ;-). I was infact using Gentoo for about a year when I brought my Shuttle (now silverfairy), but got tired on all this power wasted on compilations. The time to get security updates in when you compile them yourself on a budget PC wasn't compelling either. When I saw an e-mail about Ubuntu on debian-user-swedish I ignored it at first, but when the thread grew I actually tried it out on my AMD64 laptop (now named darkelf). At that time it was using the then unofficial amd64-port. I wanted to have an official distro without loosing apt and switched ;-).

4.10 (Warty) was installed when it got released stable. I wanted to become active already in Debian, but the flamewars always made me stale my efforts. In this more friendly distro I felt confident enough to start to help out where I could though. Soon I was running ubuntu on my server aswell and talked my girlfriend into reinstall her KDE Debian machine (silverfairy). Now all my machines run Ubuntu, and we love it :-).

I'm currently active in:

• IRC-channels (!user-support)
• Testing and bugfiling
• Hopefully a future MOTU candidate
• Universe Security
• Ubuntu Swedish Translators

• Monitoring smartmontools SG_IO

I help out where I can. I'm currently wonder if I should take a closer look at the doc-team and/or the artwork-team. I want to be a member so that my blog gets on the planet basically ;-).
