Hi,

you can found the download section clicking on the big DOWNLOADS at the top of this page.
If you have 2GB or less RAM, probably the 32bit version is better for you.
Gnome is similar to what you had in Ubuntu,
KDE is different buth you can install both, so nothing to be worried now :)

And yes, Mageia supports farsi as you can see in the download section.

You can start with a live CD (easier to install the ATI driver, but you'll need to install later a lot of software and the farsi support)
of from a DVD (read well this page to enable tha ATI card)

in Ubuntu you use 'sudo' to give a command as superuser.

Also in Mageia you can use 'sudo' (first you have to declare that your user is a sudoers:
as root, use 'visudo' and set your user like the user root),
but I found more usable to become supersuer for the whole session using 'su'
('su -' if you want to use graphic applications).

Code: Select all
$ su
Password:
root@localhost ]#
