[Linux-disciples] ubuntu

[Karl Sokol]

I have been helping people migrate to linux through Ubuntu. The inevitable 
question that comes up is "what does it mean?" I feel like an asshole saying 
the official "Ubuntu is an ancient African word meaning blah, blah, blah." 
Despite extensive googling, I have not been able to determine the 
authenticity of the word or its origin in a more specific way. Does anyone 
have access to the OEG or any other source that may be able to say what 
language family the word comes from?
