Yay! Successfully ran Kubuntu on a virtualmachine player.
By following the instructions on this page.
And thanks rob, for informing me about the HUGE repository of Linux packages available for download on the srcf. I'm gonna familiarise myself with the installation of linux, and set up a suitable version on my home computer when i return in summer.
I love the way this allows one to install entire OS'es without worrying about spoiling a thousand dollar machine.
Also like how one may be able to get into a particular (i.e. programming) frame of mind in a linux environment, and switch out if it almost instantaneously, with a virtual machine. Think I'll look for a pet virtual machine to do my programming in, and conduct all such operations in that mode.
