I may be wrong, but it seems to me that Ubuntu has come across some heavy criticism because of it not contributing enough to projects (like gnome and debian).

I agree that recognition needs to be given.

Now my solution is very simple:

include a slide on the introduction to Ubuntu slideshow (during installation) that gives credit to the companies who have done so much to allow Ubuntu to even exist.

products like firefox get their credit by just the name, but for debian (and now gnome) their name is never mentioned, yet they have done so much for this product.

Cheers,
