I've seen some people point to LiMux as a failure because they switched back to MS, but where LiMux failed GendBuntu (a version of Ubuntu adapted for use by France's National Gendarmerie) runs on over 100,000 stations and is going strong.

No link, GendBuntu hasn't been in the media a lot, I hope that changes.

There is a detailed wiki article if you'd like to see its history https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GendBuntu
