There can be some technical ways to prevent you to do it. And if you are technically able to do it anyway, you can get fired. So it's not always a smart thing to do. Actually, I can't replace ubuntu by something else (it's not a technical issue but a legal one). I can replace gnome and other things by what I want, but I have to be very careful not to mess with the security in place on my computer. -- Si vous avez du temps à perdre : https://scarpet42.gitlab.io
