Yeah especially when developers done want to fix issues. I have recommended a lot of people go to mint. It's stabler and dev's actually care about the users. Hopefully, the comments/tone Stephen Webb used aren't reflective of the whole attitude of the Ubuntu dev's. I have to believe they understand doing what's best for the user.

Upstart causes all sorts of issues in a modern system that is running systemd, search the bug tracker for " Could not connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused" Because of this dependency when I try and purge upstart to make my system actually login (.xsession-errors shows a call to upstart-udev-bridge which fails) I have to switch to a completely different desktop environment.
