Agreed - that was one of the first things I killed: sudo apt-get remove appmenu-gtk3 appmenu-gtk appmenu-qt
Just reverse that to put it back if you really miss the stupid mac-like behavior. Biggest reason for me to be rid of it is I can't spawn unity menus on each framebuffer set, so nothing on my second monitor set had menus... Brilliant!
This was a good find for making oneiric suck less: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/things-to-tweak-after-installing-ubuntu.html -mb On 12/01/2011 11:34 AM, Ariel Gold wrote:
I just started using 11.10 and Unity and the only thing I find annoying is hiding the File, Edit, etc menu and minimize, close buttons until you hover over them....and that I needed to know ctrl-alt-t opens a terminal...

When I needed to compile everything I needed anyways, slack was a much better option - in 1999. Fast forward to 2007, the last time I purposely had to deal with RHEL, my experiences were not all that dissimilar. Much of the software I use is of a network monitoring nature (snmp, perl, pgsql), and for better or worse a lot of dependencies that simply didn't exist in repos. I ended up having to compile a lot of things, and still fell into weird linking errors to things that were simply never an issue in ubuntu whether I had to roll my own or not. It was just as cranky as it was 7 years prior. Perhaps I'm a bit grizzled and stubborn, but I really don't get why I or my companies should use RH or its ilk. It's always felt... solaris-ish - day late, dollar short. With ubuntu on the poop list these days too, I need to rediscover new/old options so maybe I'll see what the rpm loving world has to offer these days. -mb On 11/30/2011 11:47 PM, Thomas Cameron wrote: On 11/30/2011 05:05 PM, Michael Butash wrote: I've used every version of ubuntu since 6.04 on the desktop (and extensive server) full-time, and while it's always been a bit cranky, it was always the most together and solid linux. Packaging was simply never a problem, nor were dependencies (ahem, redhat and spawn). Ahem. 1995 called, they want their FUD back. Package dependencies has not been a problem since up2date first, and now yum.
