I'd be hesitant to write an orbit just yet but things have gotten
noticeably worse over the last year or so that I've been using Ubuntu.
Suspend/Resume does not work and no, it's not acceptable for me to
have to limit my hardware choices based on whether Ubuntu will
suspend/resume reliably.
Stability seems to have gone up the creek and forgotten its paddle. It
manages to hang on me at least once every two days or so which
necessitates a hard boot.
I'm still happy buying into the philosophy but then normal users want
something that damn well works.
Amen, brother. I've been playing with Gutsy (7.10) for a while now
and am dealing with unpredictable crashes - which are getting more
and more annoying.
To be fair, I am promiscuously installing any app I can find, on the
theory that I will reinstall the OS from scratch at least once more
before I go the whole hog with 8.04. But still, annoying.
Let's see whow it goes...
