I run Ubuntu 16.04 LTS 64-bit. I just bought a 4-1 printer Brother (MFC-J480DW) from Staples because I was told it was Linux compatible. It looks like it is, but to download the correct drivers it starts with this choice: which OS version do I have, Linux (rpm) or Linux (deb) ? I studied up and now somewhat know what rpm and deb refer to, yet I’m clueless as to the choice in regard to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Any clues?

You want .debEssential modern soul.

Ubuntu is a distribution based on Debian Linux, and as such it is compatible with Debian packages which have names ending .deb

if you are using a descendant of Debian such as Ubuntu (or any derivative of Ubuntu such as Kali or Mint), then you have .deb packages. If you are using fedora, CentOS, RHEL and so on, then it is .rpm. If you want more detail on this, see this Unix & Linux question.

  • Well Ubuntu is debian system (.deb) so you have to choose .deb
  • If you were using fedora, then you would have chosen .rpm

You need to select .deb. Ubuntu comes from Debian variants. This can help you https://www.wikivs.com/wiki/DEB_vs_RPM

Free Software For Ubuntu Linux

  1. According to distrowatch, last release of BOSS Linux ver 5.0 was in Dec, 2013. DistroWatch.com: BOSS GNU/Linux
  2. The BOSS Linux website bosslinux.in is down. How is anyone supposed to download BOSS Linux. OK somehow I managed to download it from softpedia site. But, why is BOSS Linux website down
  3. When one can install languages on Debian, Ubuntu, openSUSE then why is anyone going to use BOSS GNU/Linux.
  4. Very few wiki pages. Do you know how many wiki pages does Ubuntu, openSUSE and Debian have? Lots
  5. Inactive forums - forums.bosslinux.in • Index page - Last post was made on Dec 05, 2013. The OP was aksing for help and there was no reply.

For all those who say boss Linux is not popular because it's based on Linux. I've a friend on openSUSE forums to whom I complained about facing difficulty in migrating from windoze. To that he said, he used Unix before windoze came. Now he faces difficulty in coping up with windoze.
