Where could I found a simple view of Ubuntu's architecture? [duplicate]

  • 772

Using Ubuntu and AskUbuntu, I see all these key words:

  • Linux Kernel (header)
  • Gnome,
  • Grub, Grub 2,
  • Xorg,
  • Unity,
  • Compiz,
  • Metacity,
  • ...

Could I get a view about those components (and probably other main components) to understand how they are linked together (with a small definition of their purpose)?

  1. Here's an overview of the Ubuntu architecture.

    Beyond that just looking them up on Wikipedia or Google would be a good way to understand more and to see which ones relate.
