Last night I tried to install the 64bit version. It hung up with keyboard select. Then on a restart it hung up a little further along. Never succeeded.
I returned and for a netbook computer, installed the 32bit version. This version is flakey. I had to change the hostname to xxx.yyy format, and also change hosts entry for 127.0.0.1 to match. After that I was able to install dropbox. I want to know if anyone installed 11.10 with a better human interface. If you start multiple launchers, you may find the system locking up if you happen to close them in some different sequence. Anyone compare UBUNTUs freee 5 gigs of memory space to that of Dropbox, neglecting size differences (5gig vs 2 gig)? I somehow think that UBUNTU will be a bigger target, and I am concerned about hacking and data corruption. Solitare works :) ------------------ Regards Leslie Mr. Leslie Satenstein 50 years in IT and going strong.

OS was stable for months in terms of the TCP connections.

I also want to install the QT*run set of libraries, and it complains about not being able to talk to or start x server. Server is running. Best to wait a month before jumping into Ubuntu, unless you just want some games. ------------------ Regards Leslie Mr. Leslie Satenstein 50 years in IT and going strong.
