Re: Ubuntu 8.04 and Lilypond

[David Stocker]

Downloading the 'any x86' installer from the lilypond website and then 
running it using the directions on the download page works flawlessly. 
Alternatively, run the Add/Remove program (on the main menu) and search 
'lilypond' and that should give you the option to install the 'stable' 
branch (2.10.33), but there are many reasons to use the latest 
development branch, and it's really not that hard to install.

And on behalf of all the other GNU/Linux users on the list, Welcome to 
Linux!
