I have used XAMPP in the past and find this AMP suite to have more features.

I really enjoyed playing around w/ Drupal and Wordpress btw...

Also you may want to install the Firefox plugin "Colorzilla"

Makes palette matching a breeze.

  I got Ubuntu Feisty Fawn setup on two laptops this weekend. I haven't really installed any *nix variation in since RedHat 6 and I must say I am damn impressed with what's changed. Anyhow, I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions for setting up a web development environment on Ubuntu?
   
  What I have set up currently:
   
  -XAMPP
  -Quanta Plus - this is a KDE app, will it present a problem for me since I'm running Gnome?
  -XaraLX, Inkscape, The GIMP (with GimpShop)
  -Filezilla
  -IEs4Linux, Opera, Firefox and the typical web dev extensions
   
  Are there any great Linux web dev gems I should know about? Would Kubuntu be a better choice? Also, what’s the likelihood that I will someday be able to run the Adobe Creative Suite apps under Linux – that’s pretty much the only thing that keeps me stuck on Micro$oft?
   
   
  Cheers,
